I guess if they want to start a revolution now is as good a time as any!
My short answers is to quote Gen. McAuliffe when the Germans had him and his men surrounded at Bastogne:
"Nuts!"

Protect the home front yard and and the guy next door if you like him. We need the founding fathers to come back for a while.

I hope, beyond hope, that there are enough of us red-blooded Americans left to put up a fight against these freaking Liberals. I am afraid though, that the color of our blood will become obvious. We are in for a historic battle against Socialism. It seems the entire world is against us.

I am more than willing to fight this behavior in my front yard. No one gets it. Socialism/Communism/Marxism <--these ideas DO NOT WORK. It has been proven time and time again. I don't want to stand in line to see a doctor or get bread. I want to sit in a comfy waiting room and push my own damn cart to my own damn high cholesterol foods. I have faith that the good people of this country will not lay down.

Wow, this is should make any American cringe. "The times, they are a changin'." I, for one, stand ready to defend my rights once again . . . too bad this time it's on home soil. Never should've come to this.

I checked the NRA site. Seems that they are not concerned about this as are we.

no they didn't. it was one of their 10 points I believe to ban gun control. they understood that gun control was primarily for keeping the masses in check, same as drug prohibition. I read some more about the old black panther party, they also believed in expemtion from military service for all african americans. it is true that many were basically socialists/communists but thank goodness even among african americans they were considered an extreme organization. I still believe the majority of americans are of sound patriotic spirit it's just that many have become so accustomed to this life they think it's a god given right when in facts we only have these rights because of those who gave their life for what we have today. sorry for preaching but it's past time to get off our tails and take it all back.crzbiker wrote:Wasn't Ol Bobby was a member of the black panthers back in the sixties?

A similar bill was introduced on Jun 11, 2007. It had 16 Democratic cosponsors. The bill never made it to a vote. The bill was H.R. 2666. The current bill is pretty much the same bill. Currently there are no cosponsors.
This administration is making a clear statement guns only have two enemies rust and politicians.
