Interesting personal opinion piece; not entirely without flaw, but interesting.

There are so many unregistered weapons out there that I can't conceive of the 'monster gov't' it would require to accomplish disarmament of us Rednecks. Dude.

Then how would we shoot our dinner, anyway?

This one of the freshest and most powerful analyses of the issue I have seen in a long time.

Almost all my guns are registered. I am in my mid twenties and had not the opportunity to to buy unregistered guns especially in socialist California. I figure I will head out to the wilderness before they ever come for me. Until then I'll vote, follow Constitutional law, and study wilderness survival.

The SINGLE STUPIDEST thing that liberals could do for their causes is pass gun control. They would be writing their own death warrant, just as the Weimar Republic did.

This is why gun-grabbers are the USEFUL IDIOTS. And most of them will still be hanging their heads in denial as they're marched into the cattle-cars.

I hadn't exactly thought of it that way.

If it means crushing the Left under foot, I'm going to support HCI and Gun Control.

Obviously the rules won't apply to me, but once they're gone...who cares?

It doesn't really matter who it is, or what party they belong to. Just understand this: gun control strengthens their hand. YOU personally disarming strengthens their hand.

This is why Sen Feinstein and Schumer, Rosie, and Sarah Brady advocate gun control for everybody else while maintaining armed bodyguards for themselves.

That just might be the argument that give the dumba** liberals a clue as to what gun control (confiscation) really results in.

From the article: Now, the Weimar Republic is not a direct comparison to today's United States.

An entire book addresses this assertion quite authoritatively. It is "The Ominous Parallels" by Leonard Peikoff, written in the early 80s. We're even closer to the Weimar experience today than when the book was written. When we are conned, scared, or forced into giving up the bulk of civilian held arms, we'll find out pretty quick that sometimes two parallel lines can indeed cross.

Of course the answer to all this is MONEY confiscation! By free people FROM the thieving government. Stop feeding the monster. Liberals should, from this post, understand they are the weakest among us. Stop feeding the monster.
