Fair enough. Im glad you dont live there either. For that matter I dont live there right now either. Ill be back in a few years but thats another story, another topic. If you dont have the right to possess firearms and youre ok with it thats fine by me. As an American , I do have the right to possess them. Someone trying tell me that want to take that right away is what im NOT ok with. I dont care if you dont want them but I dont want anyone trying to take mine. What Im sick of, as an American, is the government making or changing laws for its own convenience. Go back to what I said about showerheads. Thats not a joke. I actually saw them debating on the House floor, potential showerhead laws. The Gentelman From Wyoming summed it up nicely.

"Mister Speaker. I dont even know why we are discussing this. This is rediculous. There is a population of about 375,000 in my state. To tell these people OUR GOVERMENT doesnt like their showerheards is an EMBARRASSMENT. We should concern ourselves with things that are more important like POVERTY, HOMELESSNESS, DISEASE RESEARCH, HIV REASEARCH.
Even discussing this is a waste of taxpayers money. We need to get out of Americas bedrooms, in this case bathrooms, and discuss issues that are more important. Education springs to mind. I could name a number of things, Mister Speaker, that are more worthy of our time.

Im going to go back a few pages and bring up something esle that was discussed in here. Timothy Mcveigh. He was excecuted because blew up a federal building killing 900??? People. Im GLAD that bastards dead. But I know why he did it. Most people, including the ones that were talking about him, dont.

He did it because of the WHACO in WACO. David Koresh. The federal Government sent in MILITARY TROOPS against civilians. Supposedly thats against American LAW. Did it stop them???? No. They did it anyway. Who does the government have to answer to???? No one. Something you may not have realised yet is the fact that the US Government is specialists at COVER UPS. They denied the fact that when they stormed Koresh's compound that Goverment troops were shooting at anything that moved. They didnt WANT people getting out and telling their side of the story. Koresh supposedly had stolen military equipment in his possession. I know someone who reseached it extensively. They said Koresh had Permits for EVERYTHING in there. I cant say if that part is true or not but I know one thing. You buy $5,000 worth of ammunition and Uncle Sam is gonna be knockin on your door too.

Fact: when they stormed the compound Shots were fired AT it while the government tried to maintain that they NEVER fired a single shot and all gunfire came FROM the compound. Thats a load of CRAP. ALL gunfire was going AT the compound. Ive seen the infrared video of it taken from the helicopter that was patrolling the area. NO shots were fired FROM the compound.

The CS gas that they were injecting through the walls with the "special" tank combines with some other gas in a matter of minutes and becomes the same gas that some states execute people with in the gas chamber. Forgive me for not being able to remember the exact names of these compounds. Hydrochloric Gas or something like that. They didnt want people coming out. The Government MURDERED those people. Who do THEY answer to??? Who can argue with the feds???
Would they hesitate to make a coverup??? hell no. Its called C.Y.A. Cover Your Ass. They worked out what their story was going to be before they ever attacked.

Thats why Mcveigh did what he did. I COMPLETELY disagree with what he did. They Should have executed him. At least I know the WHY of what he did. I do not condone his actions in anyway. But theres you proof of not being able to fight the government on equal footing. Ya CANT. They'll kill you, your mom, and anyone who ever knew you if it suits their purposes. Without hesitation. And yeah Im now worried about me speaking my own mind and forget such a thing as being protected by the freedom of speech. Yeah right.

But we will get back to the topic. This is just an example why Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, Ben Franklin, and the rest of our founding fathers WANTED us to be able to bear arms. TYRANNY. Sending military units and tanks against armed civilians isnt right. They would have run out of food and come out eventually. Poison gassing them isnt right either. But it sure cut down on the number of people that could argue with them.
