Condoleezza Rice says US needs to consider Second Amendment's place in 'modern world'

This is what happens when you stay in academia for too long - you begin to adopt some of their positions. For those who haven't heard Condoleezza Rice talk about why she USED to be a 2nd Amendment "absolutist", look it up online. She tells a compelling story of when the Birmingham bombings occurred, her father (and other men in the neighborhood) patrolled the street at night with guns to keep out the KKK. They weren't hunting, they were protecting themselves and their families (as a militia) when the state wouldn't do it. THAT is the purpose of the 2nd Amendment - guarding against failure of the state to protect the citizens.

She also tells a story of how Democrats would not let her father register to vote as a Democrat, but the Republicans would. That is how she became a Republican. That story needs to be told, too (but she probably doesn't tell that much anymore, because she hangs around with lefitsts).

Every time GWB opens his yapper, his cellar boy brother Jeb! takes a public beating.

So he figures using a woman to mouth his words is the way to go.

The entire Bush familia is a disgrace.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

I’m sure rice is ok with the fact that her security detail is armed to the teeth at all times.I’m really tired of these elites.Really,really tired.

[moovova]

“..something that needs to be remembered.”

I’ll remember, thanks.

She’s a sellout.

[Drew68]

Funny how no one says that about the First Amendment?

No, there's plenty on the Left who think the First Amendment needs to be regulated as well, particularly in regards to where it protects saying things that they disagree with.

There's a pretty serious war on free speech happening right now.

[FreedomNotSafety]

I encourage every Freeper to clearly discuss the meaning and intent of the 2nd. Polpot, Stalin, Hitler, Khmer Rouge, Idi Amin, ... The progs and the left had made it clear they despise freedom and anyone who will not be brought to heel. It seems clear what their goals are for the remnants of The Christian, liberty loving, independent, society. But the price is too high as of now for them to finish their remake of society. Drop the 2nd and the path is clear.

The 2nd isn’t for hunting, self defense, or recreation. We don’t need a militia for those.

[hal ogen]

condi rice needs to crawl back into her hole.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Go to hell, Rice.

You once said that your own father used a firearm to protect your family from the Klan when you were a child.

So stuff it, Condo. Ahole Bushies.

[CodeToad]

Condi Rice did my wife’s commencement address at Denver University in 1996. I have the video. ALL she did was talk about implementing socialism and how the US needs to spend more worldwide and play a larger role using our military.

Condi Rice is a communist!

[Poison Pill]

Funny how no one says that about the First Amendment?

WOW! Where have you been lately?

[Poison Pill]

“I think it is time to have a conversation about what the right to bear arms means in the modern world,”

Lets do that right after we have a conversation about the place of over paid bureaucrats and power grabbing politicians in the modern world.

[ridesthemiles]

Condi:

I do realize that you have an ‘education’ that is far superior to mine.

However, all your years within the circle of people who live with “Guards & Law enforcement’ hovering around them at all times has caused you to lose the truth about the real people who populate the entire country. You might remember those ‘real’ people. They voted for Trump & kept a disaster out of the White House.

First——IF I need a deputy where I live, I would be VERY lucky & also VERY surprised if one showed up in less than 20 minutes. I live rural, in a large county & we have lost over half our deputies since your favorite black ‘President’ caused the big recession. When you see him- please thank him for that..(s)

Secondly, when average working Americans are struggling to pay mortgages, rent, groceries, etc, please enlighten me as to where in that budget there is $$$$$ to ‘hire a personal guard’. NEWSFLASH-—THERE ARE NO SUCH FUNDS AVAILABLE.

I live rural- but I am NOT living as rural as many in this USA. Those of you with fancy powerful jobs have NEVER spent any time in ‘flyover country’, and too many times when you open your mouth, you prove it.

When seconds count—the cops are only minutes away.....

That is the reality those of us who do NOT have Secret Service protection or bodyguards live with EVERY single minute of every single day. Nor do we live in fancy buildings where there is a doorman & a series of locked doors for people to be admitted thru. Actually, whee I live, in less than 3 miles from me, there are people living OFF the grid. They own their property, but they cannot afford the cost of bringing power to that property.

PERHAPS if your black buddy, Obama, had not pushed for ‘better statistics’ on the behavior of Hispanics & blacks in the school systems & forced those school districts to hide the actual daily happenings that placed so many other kids into mortal danger, we would never have had the shootings of Valentine’s Day.

The total insanity of NOT having consequences for bad behavior, especially in a school setting, where the kids are captured every day, is something you SHOULD be addressing. The deliberate chaos that Obama has placed on this country will take a long time to reverse.

Please rethink your positions on the CONSTITUTION which was written for a reason.

Meanwhile, enjoy YOUR ‘protection’.

Mine came with only a one time cost, and maintenance, and a constant supply of metal inserts which I keep close at hand.

Rice is a charter member of the New World Order club...so, GFY Condi.

Hewitt was all over limiting the 2A, specifically AR-15s, on Friday...just getting back to his RINO/elitist/anti-Trumper roots. GFY, Hugh!!!

With friends like this...you need to buy more ammo.

“The day you prepare to bury your guns is the day you should start using them.”

Lockbar, in any argument, struggle or conflict, you want to have some weapons in reserve that the other side has no clue exist (sometimes that needs to be taken literally). Read up on the German invasion of the Soviet Union...the Germans were shocked that, after having destroyed as many Soviet divisions as their intelligence said existed, they were facing MORE divisions in the field than the original number they started fighting.

Reserves - SECRET reserves- matter.

[right way right]

What you said.
The globalists are really pushing it.
Do they think they are immune to consequences of threatening our freedom.
I think they do.

[Ancesthntr]

“The transcript of DC vs. Heller is your “conversation”. Next question.”

---

Here’s my response to someone wanting to have that conversation (which is a polite, if deceitful, way of saying, “You need to turn in your guns.”):

“No! Your move.”

[Ancesthntr]

I agree with your sentiments, but you got your facts a bit scrambled. The AR-15 IS the civilian version of the select-fire military rifle...which was originally the M-16, and is now the M-4. I have an AR (which I often think means A$$hole Remover), and didn’t need to do anything else but put down some money to obtain.

[b4its2late]

You got that right. SMH.

[Bonemaker]

“I think it is time to have a conversation about what the right to bear arms means in the modern world,”

Hey Candelabra, I’ll save you the trouble...it means I get to have an AR 15. Now piss off and go play on I 95.

“She supported Obama and was very “proud” that he was elected.”
