You are a very confusing person. . . I find things in your posts that make me think left wing and then I find things in other that make me think right wing. At one point because of the wording I questioned you calling our military terrorists (that was clarified).Of course there is no true freedom with a government. What you're talking about is anarchy. The operation of our government is to uphold the law. The laws are put there to give everyone the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness and all of that Politically Correct nonsense. When your government invades your personal freedoms is when you are less free. Your private life isn't as private anymore and that is what i am referring to. As for baring arms...Now you can say that its fine that you only have semi-automatic weapons and i agree with you. Theres no reason to have more than that.
My problem is members of our government that try to make it damn near impossbile to own a firearm. I say this as a New Yorker....try to get a license for a gun in new york... Our senator and presidential candidate says "you don't need your guns...we'll protect you". If you read some quotations from Hitlers right hand man you'll find frightening similarities. The right to bare arms wasn't put there so you can defend yourself from your neighbors or enemies, but your own government before anything else.
We were once part of the british empire...never forget that. Our people were being opressed by an unfair ruler and we fought back. We took the power back and thats why we have the right to bare arms. Many politicians are trying to take that right away from you.
I hope everyone thinks about their choices when they vote for the people who represent them.
I find myself more conservative and feel that unless we are hurting each other there doesn't need to be a law for it (drunk driving, speed limits, child abuse, etc). I feel that gun control is wrong and if we look at societies that have very little gun control the average crimes are much less (braking and entering, random street crime, bank/store robberies). When everyone is concerned that the house they are braking into may be armed it makes people think a little more.
. . . uhuh. The intelligence is staggering.Awesome! I'm a bloody stinkin terrorist! Muwahahaha
