Im sure you all have heart that saying about "first they came for the Jews".
Well here is one for all us gun owners out there that VPC, Sarah Brady and Diane Feinstein Fully Endorse.

An Ode To Gun Control
First they came for the people with Assault Rifles
and I did not speak out
because I did not own an Assault Rifle.
Then they came for the people with .50 caliber Rifles
and I did not speak out
because I did not own a .50 caliber Rifle.
Then they came for the people with Pistols
and I did not speak out
because I did not own a Pistol.
Then they came for My Rifles and Shotguns
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

My name is Diane Feinstein and I approve that this is what I want.
My name is Sarah Brady and I approve that this is what I want.
My name is John Kerry and I approve that this is what I want.

Damn if this thought isnt scary

Here's an old counter-point:

Oil and grease and powder
A most welcome smell
Of guns and ammo a-plenty
And of thousands fired shells

Mirage wavers over the barrels
Targets look worse for the wear
We might be tired by end of the day
But, as we shall fight, we have trained

We might need a cleaning
But guns get cleaned up first
Belts re-filled with AP and tracers
And magazines topped off

Oil and grease and powder
Smell of tool put to work
Reminder that we're in America
Not in Chicago, LA or New York

A most welcome, that smell
As long as we hold the guns
And anyone trying to take them
Won't, without a fight

They might start it, but we will finish
Just like Finns did in 1918
We'll blow smoke from rifle muzzles
And say "Dead reds smell like freedom"
