So let me get this straight. Rather tahn work through the ballot box, or sue a law as unconstitutional, you would rather have armed conflict.
In other words, you don’t basically believe in the American system of government. You don’t believe that you have any recourse if another party attempts to deprive you of your God-given rightsd.
The American system of government was designed to protect the rights of the individual, and to give him a non-violent recourse if he believed he had been unconstitutionally deprived of those rights. It may not be rapid, but it is supposed to be fair. It is supposed to be the best system of self-government yet devised by Man.
But you don’t believe it will protect you, or you wouldn’t be entertaining the idea that you might need violence or civil war to defeat the will of your fellow citizens. You use the analogy of the Nazis to explain why you might have to fight your countrymen. You don’t believe that our system of government will protect us from ending up with a totalitarian fascism.
According to you, therefore, you can’t just trust to the system we have. You might have to decide to take things into your own hands, to get the kind of government you decide you want.
Why is it you want to preserve America again? Because it sounds like you don’t trust our system of government very much.
I don’t think you’ve actually read what I’ve written, you seem to be more interested in debating a strawman of your imagination rather than having an exchange with me, if so, you can do so without me and I won’t have to wasting my time.
Which part of “I view war as a choice of last resort” eludes your reading comprehension?
How does that translate to “you’d rather have an armed conflict rather than the ballot box or the courts.”
Of course I’d rather not have to fight. But I am not blind to the fact that sometimes that is what it will take, peaceful resolutions are not always possible, and there are things worth fighting for if fighting is what it takes.
There is a reason why the 2nd amendment exist in the Constitution, that is the fail safe built in to protect the rights of the people from a tyrannical government should all the other protections fail. According to your ideology we really don’t need the 2nd Amendment after all.
