Is This The Democrats Vision For America?

[Into the Night]

We know that right wingers want guns to attack our government.

So you are afraid that some violence is going to ensue because of your coup?

 

[Into the Night]

Thread shows right wingers care more about guns than the safety of our nation.

Guns ARE safety, except to criminals and rogue governments.

Oh you remember how the wing nuts panicked when Obama was elected? The NRA and the Republican polls all had the powder heads convinced Obama was going to come to their homes, personally and take their precious guns. There was an ammo shortage because all the idiots bought as much as their broken pickups could carry and took it all

Republicans have only gotten more stupid and more evil since.

Because Obama said exactly that.

 

[Into the Night]

it's about FREEDOM, not safety. if you studied history, you'd know better.

Freedom IS safety.
People defending themselves from criminals and rogue governments and dangerous animals IS safety.

This is all old school politics stuff. Dems want to take your guns - they're socialists. Republicans want to take away school lunches or whatever.

I've been hearing that Dems want to ban guns for decades. There are more guns now than ever.

Democrats had better do some serious navel gazing before they try to take away guns.

 

[Into the Night]

But what about the handguns that they may already own? Do they have to give them up? I haven't seen any mention of that so far.

Argument of ignorance fallacy. It's been mentioned.

 

[LurchAddams]

Because Obama said exactly that.

You're insane.

Sorry, Mr. Niblick. I’ve been looking for a link to the video outside of Twitter but haven’t been successful. Basically it was a short clip of him announcing that what they had started in May was coming to fruition and that from that day (of his latest announcement…I think on Friday) “ People can no longer buy, sell, or transfer handguns within Canada – and they cannot bring newly acquired handguns into the country.” There was a bit more but that’s the gist of it.

You know my position, Rev.

I'm a hard left guy with no problems whatsoever with firearms other than military assault weapons.

I like beautifully polished, hand checkered stocks, though--not ugly crap that reminds me of Vietnam.

There is no such thing as a 'military assault weapon'. Who are YOU to determine what weapon someone wants to buy, own, and carry??????!?

I like bringing this up once in a while just to watch the lefties seeth. The answer is NO, the left will never succeed in disarming the American public,...because they CANT. When I say cant Im not even talking legalities like the 2nd amendment. Im talking they cant because they physically CANT do it and they KNOW this therefor they will never actually try. They may nibble at the edges a little bit,....but TAKE our guns? NEVER. In fact the very thought is laughable. There are more guns here then people...LOL And we love them. It would result in the slaughter of the left. This is why they will never be able to take our guns. Sure isnt because they dont want to, we all know they would LOVE to,....but even they know THEY CANT . They cant because they would be shot down en masse like dogs. Thats how it would end as we all know. Must suck for them.

I'm a liberal and a gun owner. I also support abolishing the 2A and treating gun ownership as a privilege. Gun restrictions work everywhere else in the world when it comes to minimizing public shootings and they would work here, too.

If you want to ban abortion in the name of saving lives, then let's also ban guns in the name of saving lives.

Guns don't prevent tyranny. They didn't stop the US government from putting innocent Americans into internment camps during WW2. They don't stop the NSA from spying on us. They didn't stop President Adams from imprisoning newspaper publishers for criticizing the Congress. They didn't even stop Hussein from terrorizing Iraq for decades.

Likewise, the Arab Spring occured without a single gun present.

The truth is that armed populaces don't prevent tyranny. The Founding Fathers had a hypothesis and history has since proven it false. What does stop tyranny is an informed populace willing to protest en masse.

It's information that can be weaponized. When you control how people think (like how Trump and Faux News do to the Republican base), you can go as far as using an armed populace to support tyranny, which is what we're starting to see among the right.

The Founding Fathers had more insight into the nature of man than you will ever have.

It wasn’t a hypothesis and it wasn’t proven wrong.

An armed populace prevented the Japanese from invading America in WWII. They knew there would be a man with a gun behind every tree. That prevented some serious tyranny.

The internment of the Japanese in America was in the context of a world war that we were not assured a victory and the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese with the deaths of thousands of Americans. One of your far left presidents used an EO to cause this internment.

Every day in America, small tyrannies are prevented when a thug tries to harm an armed citizen.

The Second Amendment will stand and you will not abolish it and gun ownership will remain a “right” not your “privilege.”

Who the hell are you to think gun ownership is a “privilege,” pendejo?

Nope. The right of self defense is inherent. You just want to discard the Constitution.

Unconstitutional. Banning guns will not save lives. Quite the opposite happens.

Slugs like America talk about the “privilege” of gun ownership, not the Constitutional “right” of gun ownership.

The inherent right to self defense remains extant in our “America,” not his America.

He claims to be a gun owner but I seriously doubt that he knows which end of gun that the rounds exit from (sic).

 

[Into the Night]

Guns don't prevent tyranny.

They certainly can. Discard of history.

They didn't stop the US government from putting innocent Americans into internment camps during WW2.

Special pleading fallacy.

They don't stop the NSA from spying on us.

Special pleading fallacy.

They didn't stop President Adams from imprisoning newspaper publishers for criticizing the Congress.

Special pleading fallacy.

They didn't even stop Hussein from terrorizing Iraq for decades.

They did stop Hussein though.

Likewise, the Arab Spring occured without a single gun present.

Lie.

The truth is that armed populaces don't prevent tyranny.

They certainly can.

The Founding Fathers had a hypothesis and history has since proven it false.

The Constitution is not a theory nor a hypothesis.

What does stop tyranny is an informed populace willing to protest en masse.

Nah. A good guy with a gun can do it. They can stop the criminal. They can, if necessary, defend themselves and their property from a rogue or tyrannical government.

You just try to take away guns from people and see what happens.

It's information that can be weaponized. When you control how people think (like how Trump and Faux News do to the Republican base),

Inversion fallacy. You are describing Democrats.

you can go as far as using an armed populace to support tyranny,

An armed populace prevents tyranny.

which is what we're starting to see among the right.

Hallucination.

It is Democrats that:
* try to take away guns so people can't defend themselves.
* try to censor people.
* teach school children to mutilate themselves.
* put porn in schools.
* turn criminals loose.
* dismantle police.
* discard the Constitution.
* support fascism.
* support communism.
* support violent factions that burn, loot, and pillage cities.

No, you are not going to disarm the public.

 

[Into the Night]

Calm down.

Why should he? You are proposing theft, crime, and disarming the public.
