Here is an example of when FR goes off the rails. Whenever a thread is posted talking about gun laws or gun control in a state that some posters absolutely hate (NY, CA, NJ, MA, CT, etc.), some posters act superior. They also act as if these states are not part of America, and these states don't have patriots, veterans, Christians, and pro-Constituttion citizens by the millions living there.
The sentiment of the boards is usually: "HA! Well F-%K that $_ithole state! HAHAHAHAHA!
What they don't realize is that they are laughing at the demise of the Constitution, and of their own rights (no matter what state they live in). Gun control is a like a cancer. It spreads, rapidly sometimes.
The Supreme Court, and other courts, are refusing to uphold our rights. The SC won't even hear most gun control cases. They punt on first down.
I think it's just a matter of time before a state bans guns outright, and the courts and the Federal government will do nothing to defend us.

We are not off the rails. We do hate those states. We loathe them and wish they did not exist. But they do and we are stuck with them.

I used to live in CT. U-Haul rents trucks.

Yep. Those states do seem to take great pride in doing things to make us say that. You seem to imply that your state does these things becuase of us and that they wouldnt if we just showed them more love here on FR.
>>What they don’t realize is that they are laughing at the demise of the Constitution, and of their own rights (no matter what state they live in). Gun control is a like a cancer. It spreads, rapidly sometimes.
We do realize it. We know that those states will act as the model for gun control that affects us all. We also realize that we cant vote in those states so we have ZERO power to change the outcome.
Likewise, the smart FReeper understands that freedom is dying in this country largely due to the prosperity that we create. It is a well-known cycle that destroys all free and prosperous cultures. They arent destroyed from outside. ISIS isnt a threat. NK isnt a threat. David Hogg and his generation is a threat. The people who call illegals immigrants are a threat. The Deep State is a threat.
We know that the courts, the education system, and the media are the enemies of freedom. So we look at CA, a truly vile place that we have no control over, and laughbecause thats all we can do. The cancer that is California will spread and there are no viable treatment options.
“The SC won’t even hear most gun control cases. They punt on first down.”
We need one more dependable conservative on the court before we chance a bad ruling. If Kennedy retires and Ruth Buzzy takes the dirt nap, you will see a case heard in short order.
The courts and fed gov are made up of people.
People who we wish to lift a finger on our behalf against the powers that wish to squish us.
The supreme court will protect us, if we get the right people in there, we say.
but when it comes to it, we meekly acquiesce and go, cuffed, into the wagon.
Every single law that has passed infringes....who is ready and willing to kill or be killed?
To harsh a statement? yes, yes it is, and they are collectively banking on that sentiment as they deprive us of every freedom.
