Terry Johnson - If events haven't shown you this yet, I'm probably wasting my time saying this, but here goes ....

BECAUSE cops have guns, citizens need to be armed. BECAUSE the military has guns, citizens need to be armed.

Why would you be so stupid as to allow these jackbooted thugs to be armed while disarming yourself? Do you not realize that they can get away with anything if the people are not armed?

And, yes, I am paraphrasing about a dozen Founders who are now rolling in their graves at your foolishness.

If the government is armed, the people must be armed or we will very soon find ourselves living in utter tyranny. The fact that cops and soldiers think they can shoot regular people with impunity proves that we cannot trust them to be armed while we are disarmed.
