Here is another American "skating near the legal edge".
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." by Thomas Jefferson.
So I'd say he's in good company.
Indeed!
"You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in their struggle for independence."
-- Charles A. Beard, Historian (1874-1948)
"The tank, the B-52, the fighter-bomber, the state controlled police and the military are the weapons of dictatorship. The rifle is the weapon of democracy. Not for nothing was the revolver called an "equalizer." Egalite implies liberte. And always will. Let us hope our weapons are never needed--but do not forget what the common people knew when they demanded the Bill of Rights: An armed citizenry is the first defense, the best defense, and the final defense against tyranny... If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military, the hired servants of our rulers. Only the government--and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws."
--Edward Abbey, The Right to Bear Arms, 1979

Well said. And the crime rates before and after gun control consistently back you up.
On a lighter note, a group of libs tried to keep their neighborhoods safer. They didn’t want to scare burglars into killing anyone, so they decided to display signs:
“This is a gun free house.”
Robberies occurred like never before; they took the signs down.

Is Ted Rall going to get a job going door to door collecting outlawed guns?
Ted Rall is such an irritating jerk that his going door-to-door for any reason, including to sell girl scout cookies, is just asking for multiple beat-downs.

Spread that around, the more people understand the Statist’s attitude on the right of self-defense the better we all will be.
Here's another for you:

Any Sheriff that permits the Feds to fill a camp with non voluntary occupants needs to be taken down and replaced with someone who understand the authority of Sheriff.

MSNBC commentator Rachel Maddow said she enjoys shooting, but thinks we should not be "allowed" to take our guns home from the range.That would be like going to the DMV to take your DRIVER'S LICENSE TEST, and leaving your car there.

At least then you are licensed to drive.
Just don't use it. ; )
It's just as asinine as the idea of the second amendment is that God gave us the inalienable right to go to the range and target practice.
