George Mason is one of the last bastions of freedom in higher education.

“George Mason is one of the last bastions of freedom in higher education.”

Thank goodness for that!

“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.

- Lyndon Johnson when he signed the 1968 GCA into law.

Gotta be careful with movies! Back in the anti-handgun 1970s there was a TV movie REVENGE FOR A RAPE.

In it you root for the good guy (Mike Connors) as he avenges the rape of his wife while camping during hunting season (cover for anti-hunting scenes also).

Then, at the end (SPOILER ALERT!) we find he has killed the wrong people!

LOL! Got to see that one. Reminds me of that movie “Joe” if you ever saw that, that’s an old one from1970.. It stars Peter Boyle and Susan Sarandon, and of course being that Boyle plays a conservative, they make him out to be a hard drinking bigot who is hellbent on killing hippies. Ironically it was lib Sarandon who supported killers in real life when she named her first male born child “Jack Henry” after killer Jack Henry Abbott which the media never mentions.

You know what ticks me off about todays GOP, not that we still have a GOP but more of a RINO party, is they never promote all the lives SAVED by the 2nd amendment. The only time you ever read about them is usually in some small town newspaper website like “woman kills 2 home invaders” which a Freeper will post here and then the story disappears. And what do the RINOS do? Cower into a fetal position at the feet of democrats “Oh yes Mr. Obama, yes yes, you can have the 2nd amendment” when they should be publicizing the HELL out of stories like that. One thing I admire about the Treason party is they do not have the fear the RINO party has. They will lie and lie and embellish and they do not care who finds out, they will just keep doing it. But the slightest sneeze from a Democrat and the RINOs are on their knees begging for forgiveness.

Even IF the 2nd Amendment were repealed we would still retain our Right to bear arms. That Right, and all of the others, predate the Constitution. All the BOR does is ENUMERATE certain rights.

This implies that the 2nd Amendment applies to the entire world. Natural rights aren't just for Americans.

This also implies, by extension, that most governments are illegitimately denying their citizens the right to self-defense.

You are quite correct.

What would happen if the majority of people just started carrying concealed because the believe in their right to do so?
