Thought provoking post from FB

[Dixie - In Memoriam]

Think about that, screaming gun lunatic with more weapons than friends, the next time you think your 100-clip magazine and fourteen guns can protect you from a determined military. Your “Red Dawn” fantasy is laughable.

Here's the intangible you aren't considering; The shutdown of Boston was viewed by the general public as a good thing, in the name of capturing a criminal and protecting public safety. It was not the action of a regime in order to control the masses. Had some radical element taken over the government and was attempting to use the military to make the people bow to their will, it would have been a completely different story. In THAT scenario, you would have had about 150 million gun owning Americans converging on Boston, and the forces there would have been overwhelmed, determined or not.

But what is REALLY scary here, is that you almost seem to be making a threat. You seem to be saying that we already live in a time where your radical socialist regime can take over any time they please, as long as they control the military, and we may as well disarm before the bloodshed.

Write this down and memorize it... YOU ARE NOT GETTING OUR GUNS! ...EVER!

Now imagine this thing playing out in some city where all law-abiding residents who choose to are armed, and just to make this scenario interesting there are no cops.

That little bastard wouldn't have lasted half as long with a half-million eyes looking for him.

Yes, the armed citizens would have gotten him.

But how many other muslims would they have also gotten? How many people who looked arabic were attacked after 9/11?

There have already been a few who have been attacked after this debacle.

This. I am all for being armed and doing what I can to prevent the further erosion of our gun rights but I am also not naive enough to believe that the armed citizen is better than the trained law enforcement official to take care of situations like this. Vigilante justice is rarely just.

until you've assaulted a fellow cop. then the vigilante justice is tolerable.

The best shot you got in Bugg Tussle County down there is nothing compared to your average Southie. You have no idea the kind of hard asses they got in Bean Town.

Yeah, SURE.

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

LOL Dude, I've lived half my life in a rural region, grew up on a farm....and I've lived half my life in the big city. Dude you've got it completely backwdards and if you don't believe me you need to come up north and live in one of these hard pipe industrial cities ya'll think of as these "Liberal Big Cities" for about a year and you'll find out you are soooooo wrong. LOL

Boston would bend over and beg for martial law. They are a soft, weak people.

Found this on FB...just couldn't resist...

A MESSAGE ABOUT BOSTON TO ANYONE WHO THINKS THEIR GUN IS THE LAST LINE OF DEFENSE IN A WORLD GONE MAD:

Hey, Second Amendment lunatics. Think about this:

The entire city of Boston was under martial law the last few days. You get that, right? MARTIAL LAW.

In a cameras-everywhere society, we went from tragedy to identification to capture in less than five days. And to make that happen, the full-force of the government came in, shut down a major metropolitan area, instituted a no-fly zone, flooded the place with troops and technology and locked it down until it completed its mission.

Think about that, screaming gun lunatic with more weapons than friends, the next time you think your 100-clip magazine and fourteen guns can protect you from a determined military. Your “Red Dawn” fantasy is laughable.

Think about that the next time there’s a school shooting that could have been prevented by a ban or minimized by regulating clip size, but wasn’t because of you or the fearful twit in the Senate that represents you.

Think about that when some mentally unstable person gets his weaponry from a gun show without the simplest of background checks, and tears apart dozens or hundreds of lives.

My views on the issue haven’t changed in the last week. I want sensible gun reform and will continue to fight for it. I stand with 90% of Americans and against the senators who are in the pocket of the NRA.

You, on the other hand, got a big lesson on just how sad and defenseless you would be if Obama – or ANY President – truly was the dictator you fear.

You wouldn’t last two days.

Enjoy your weekend, oh impotent paper tigers.

Really? This drivel shit is what you couldn't resist? Good god man, learn a few minor critical thinking skills. For the love of Peter, think for yourself, don't let some belligerent fool on facebook speak for you.

I don't even own a gun. Never have and likely never will. I don't feel comfortable having one as I am not educated and trained on it. But to dismiss gun rights and people who have passion about gun rights as a "screaming gun lunatic" is no different than calling an abortion rights erson a "baby killing madman".

Get a hold of yourself you self idealizing egomaniacal prick, there's other people that live in this world. If you want some faceless asshole on facebook to speak for you, why not just give him your account and password? Good day.

board libertarians are cleaning up recently. zappas just embarrassed himself badly. He could have taken a shit on the carpet and had more dignity.

 

[Mott the Hoople]

I agree with WB. When you live in a large metropolitan area, you have more contact with law enforcement, more times people are told to do things by law enforcement, and are more likely to be told to do things that are less intrusive, and therefore, more likely to do it without thinking. If martial law is ever enacted, I think resistance maybe be greater in the south and mountain west and less in the North East and California.

Sorry man. In my experience it's the exact opposite. Rural folks tend to be more concerned about conformity and will tolerate level of government interference that would cause city folk to jump up and scream. Sorry, you two have it backwards.

Yea but you would have ended up with more dead and wounded from accidental cross fire than from the bombing. LOL

 

[Mott the Hoople]

Yeah, SURE.

Actually I'd say the same for Detroit....or Cleveland.....or Philly.

This is almost as bad a fail as Zippy's. You actually think folks would go around taking pot-shots? Maybe shooting wildly like the loonies in the Mid East.

don't confuse private citizens with the NYPD, k?

 

[Billy the Great Khan]

You cannot put all urban areas in the same category. Detroit and Philly are both very pitch forky, your coastal towns especially on the East Coast, are not.

Maybe the rural and urban people up north have more differences than I thought. I have lived in several large urban areas (I now reside in Atlanta) but have spent much of my life living in small towns or even isolated rural areas. The people in the rural areas have been much more independent and less fond of gov't intereference, especially where firearms and self-protection is concerned.

Ah yes, all this congratulatory mutual masturbation is certainly entertaining.
