Someone needs to go “Henry Bowman” on this guy.....I would like to see the “Senator treatment” mentioned in the book ;)
No we can't. This leftist administration has redefined what patriotism is.
They now define terrorists as returning veterans and people who protest taxes and killing 8 month old fetus' babies.
No...methinks the boiling point is about to be reached and local patriots (old definition) will have to start reaching for the cartridge box, since Ben Franklin's soap box and ballot box don't seem to be working.
I know we have strong feelings about this, because we know the purpose and results of gun control. But calling for specific violent action against a named, specific senator is crossing a line.
The “Bowman effect” is what happens when an individual person is affected by the actions of a politician or bureaucrat, and, seeing no other way of redress, takes action himself.
That has not happened here. Yet.
Why in heaven or earth would any real American want the US to be in the "global environment" playing by "global rules"? The majority of the world's people live in fear and loathing of their own government, while most Americans believe that we are the only truly free people on earth. Or I should say we believed that until January of this year when a foreign-born closet communist took over our nation and began remaking it into a globalist/socialist nightmare that will soon engulf us and destroy what few liberties we still had after almost a century of assault by collectivist authoritarians.
We have, or had until recent years, by far the best form of government ever devised by man with the help of God. We still appear to have the that form of government, but now, thanks primarily to our globalist leftist government education establishment, the majority of Americans seem to believe it needs to be remade into the image of authoritarian socialist governments like those in Europe and Asia. The vast majority of the global population who the leftist/globalists want us to emulate live under a government in which the individual is a ward of the state who can not enjoy his/her inherent, unalienable rights, but only privileges bestowed by the state. Needless to say possession of firearms is not one of those "privileges", and the unalienable right to keep and bear arms is almost universally denied to the people of those nations that both "O" and his stooge Koh want the US to copy.
Privileges can be revoked at the will of the government or a dictator who granted them, but inherent, God-given rights are not subject to revocation by any human institution or individual. Inherent rights can be suppressed by tyrannical governments but not revoked. And IMHO that is why rebellion against an oppressive government is not the same thing as disobeying unjust laws, something that the bible forbids Christians to do. If Christians are wrong to try to free their nation and people from the clutches of a corrupt, tyrannical government with armed force, God would not have answered the prayers of the Christian men who rebelled against King George's oppressive rule and created the US with God's blessing and divine assistance.

Yes, I suppose when we have exhausted (and they have ignored) the law of the land, further action must be taken.
War is hell, but it beats hell on earth for the entire country and the world.
Guns in the hands of law abiding citizens keeps society civil.
Bookmarked that one.
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
So hiving around is the only way to go, eh? Very liberal of you -- that why you call yourself LibTeeth? You are a river of chewed-up conservatives to your people? Er, your hive?
Political letters don't have to opus. They can be short and communicative.
This "just shut up and sign my form letter" stuff -- this "go along to get along" stuff -- is exactly what liberalism is all about.
Thanks for the "help". But I don't think so.
You should listen to yourself. You sound like Rahm Emanuel channeling Bella Abzug.
In the land of the disarmed, Chuck Norris is emperor, but the guy with the gun is God.

Many people will start with good intentions, but never get around to a personal effort because the activation energy hump is increased considerably over the forms.
Don't listen to me. Just look at what the Bradybots say:
Take Action: blah, blah, etc.
