Joe Biden's Second Amendment disquisition

Posted by David Hardy · 24 June 2021 04:02 PM

Right here. About halfway down the page.

Let's get this straight. (1) Resistance if Futile unless you have nukes and air support, but (2) a bunch of people entered the Capitol, without so much as BB guns, and this posed an existential crisis to the Republic?

Hmm, what they those people did by entering the capital building wasn't right and trashing it was wrong, but what those far left democratic communists are doing to this country isn't right either. I've been in the capital building on a tour years ago and it is a beautiful building, a historic building and to have the current leadership of government incit problems like this is wrong

It boils down to this line-
"Flexing government power to point out the futility of the Second Amendment is the whole reason we have a Second Amendment. "

I had a chance to take a bus trip to the protest in D.C., but I knew that it would degenerate into chaos, if not due to the huge, angry crowd of right wing people, then due to the left wing pot stirrers, there to ensure that violence was sure to start, just to discredit the protest.
I am certain that everyone is ashamed that people broke into the capitol in the manner that they did. It should not have happened. That sort of thing must be reserved for when it really is time to start shooting the bastards. I don't think we are there just yet, but we are much closer than we were when Claire Wolfe wrote those words those many years back.
The problem with the leftist/socialists attack on the 2nd amendment is that we have sat around and allowed the gun control people to basically have their way with the gun control agenda. I blame a lot of that on the NRA and their horrible job of managing their money, to where they could not muster the funds to back enough of a response to things like the bumpstock ban, and now the so called ghost gun ban, and all of the rest that is happening now.
We have said a lot of things, like from my cold dead hands, or Molon Labe, and other fun slogans that made us sound great, and look oh so good on a t-shirt, but in fact, only make the people selling the t-shirts happy. Does your state Senators know you by name, because you have written them so many times? Or your Representative? I admit, until this last election, I had never before given any money to any election, but this time I gave to try and get rid of one of our state senators here in Michigan.
If you don't like the NRA, who have you at least sent the money to for membership? GOA, FPC, or your state gun rights group? The days of just letting things go on the way that they are, and counting on them be ok are gone. We have to be active, instead of reactive. I don't know what we can accomplish, but I know we have to try.
