I was working on the machines, doing some upper body strength exercises (for a more stable shooting platform ) when I heard some chick talking to another guy saying "...I think only the police and the army should have guns. I don't like guns or fighting... blah blah blah"
So I just asked her if she thought then that only the British in 1776 should have had guns? Now, I could have brought up a million other questions but that's the one that came to mind first.
Okay, here's the answer she had which shows just how much thought (like none) goes into the anti-gun mindset. She says to me "Well that was different."
Yeah, right, different.
I didn't get a chance to say anything else and it probably wasn't appropriate to push the issue any farther but I think she got the point that there are still people out there that don't think the way she does. The problem was that the guy she was talking to was in full agreement.
I think that this country is doomed in it's present form. The average American now seem to have no idea how costly and valuable their freedom is. They are willing to sell it all for a little percieved security.
The more of this I encounter the more I begin to feel that there will be no peaceful solution to the problem of lost Liberties. They are not coming back without a fight. The encouraging thing about it though is that with people like this chick in the gym they are not willing to fight for anything. If a certain section of the US were to suceed from the union I'd almost bet that would become a new country because all the cowards would be to afraid to fight them over it?
