Preacher (and I say that with utmost respect), I want to tell you that this thread is one of the best I've seen in a while, you have framed the issue perfectly, and nailed it without question. Your citing Theodore Haas is excellent:

"if the government does not trust me to own firearms, why or how can the people be expected to trust the government?"

We've heard many times that the difference between an armed person and an unarmed person is that the armed person is a CITIZEN, while the unarmed person is merely a SUBJECT.

Our Revolutionary Ancestors began our War of Independence against the tyrant King George when the British troops attempted to disarm the colonists and seize their weapons. Those Brits were only partially successful, they didn't get any guns, but they damn sure got some ammo and a bunch of dead redcoats for their trouble.

THIS is what it is going to come down to: this dictatorial, illicit and illegal Obamunist regime WILL attempt to eliminate our rights under the Second Amendment, seize our weapons, ammo (or both) all in the name of 'domestic security' or some other left-liberal claptrap.

The words of Thomas Jefferson should be branded in our minds, "The Tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." and we can all best believe that he was talking about times like these.

I say "Praise the Lord, and Pass the Ammunition". ;)

Thanks, mkjessup.

You know, when you think about it, why would I ever trust anyone who began the conversation by wanting me disarmed.

There is something broke in that guy’s approach.
