Another thread got me thinking.
How often do I see the following phrase or a derivative? ". . . . . .and they will come get our guns."
So what? What does it mean? There is an implied next step after "they come get our guns."
What is that next step.
We just surrendered free political speech and no one said, ". . . . .and they will keep us from speaking in public." Hate speech laws seek to control non-political speech yet there is no outcry or threats leveled against our government.
Freedom of association is well-down the road to being obsolete yet there is no followup comments.
Someone would say the right to due process is squashed by the Patriots' Act but there is no implied danger or threat to the government for its actions.
So what is it about the second amendment that causes a followup comment?
