The UN is NOT going to take your Guns

Good One, Longeyes!

When you are dealing with leftists you should always keep a little paranoia handy.

But, is it really paranoia when it's responding to the known tactics of the left? They call it paranoia to hopefully throw us off balance. It didn't work. Paranoia is unfounded fear. We fear them, but we know why, so, it isn't unfounded.

Let's call it "awareness". That's a word they use all the time so they must understand it. We are "aware" of their tactics and are prepared to meet them head on.

There is perspective and there is pretense. No amount of bombast or emotion can truthfully equate the two. One does not add validity to the other. Bombast and emotion added to pretense does not equal perspective. Reason, fact, and logic? That's a different matter. That will net you perspective every time. B.E.Wood

Oh, you didn't know? "Paranoia is simply a state of heightened awareness." I forget which wise Elder Statesman of combat weaponcraft said that, but it's still a valid perspective.

"Paranoia is simply a state of heightened awareness."

I like that! It covers paranoia AND awareness!

"Gun Control" seeks to put bounds upon, and possibly effect the elimination of, our inalienable Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Don't be led astray with the inference that it is "gun" control. What is under attack are rights of the people. Guns are inanimate objects; tools of freedom and self defense, primarily. Dehumanizing the discourse by calling it "gun control" or "gun rights" tends to lessen the impact from what the impact would be if the discussion were to be directed at the HUMAN right being infringed, and attempts to hide it from the strict scrutiny of the Constitution.

Gentlemen, I have a bad feeling that this country is headed for disaster. If (God help us) Hillary or any other leftist gains the presidency in 2008, our Constitutionally-recognized right to self-defense will go right down the porcelain throne. There is no doubt in my mind that these communist traitors will collaborate with their UN puppet masters to bring this once-great nation in line with their collectivist agenda. That being said ANYBODY trying to seize my arms will regret it. Born in this country or not, leftists are NOT Americans. True Americans believe in the Constitution, and are willing to lay down their lives in defense of it and what it stands for. I will NEVER surrender my firearms, my rights as an American were paid for in blood by millions of great Americans throughout this country's short history, and I will DIE before I see their sacrifices fall by the wayside and amount to nothing. GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH!!

When you are dealing with leftists or right-wingers you should always keep a little paranoia handy.

Fixed it for you.

 

[ConstitutionCowboy]

Fixed It For You.

You mean you abridged it, don't you?

To be liberal is to live in a cloud of delusion fraught with fantasy, and a disregard for the law and fair play. Alas; clear fact, unambiguous consensus, scrutiny, and researched reason does prevail and keeps me in touch with who is who, what is what, and why I am conservative. B.E.Wood

No blue helmets.

While I never expect to see blue helmets marching down my street, I think the threat of confiscation is real. Other will be sent to do the U.N.'s bidding. As for the treaty vs. agreement argument, I've already seen evidence that our national sovreignty means nothing to these clowns. Two months ago I was working on the shipping dock at my factory. A truck pulled in and I was talking with the driver, who began complaining about his new inspection sticker. It has three flags on it. American, mexican and canadian.

Our Republic is dying a death of a thousand cuts.

That is quite correct.
The UN is not going to take my weapons.

Paranoia

Another way I have heard it is "Paranoia is a survival trait".
