...listening to NPR today and they were asking people to call in if they had ever had to pull a gun on someone...guy calls in from florida and says he had a crack-head invade his home...he grabs his assualt weapon and points it at the guy, but he keeps coming...turns out he's some kind of martial arts guru and breaks the home owner's nose and takes his rifle away from him...the home owner comes to hearing the clicking of the rifle which is pointed at his face...apparently, the intruder couldn't figure out how to release the safety...they struggle for a while and home owner ends up with the rifle...three rounds to the belly and one to the head later and the intruder ain't no more...[X(]...home owner claims he would be dead if he was defending himself with a pistol or shotgun...really?...not completely buying that one...
I can understand that you guys want gun ownership and it's in your constitutional right etc. But wasn't the right to bear arms a safeguard against those damned handsome British coming back? It was also written before assault rifles etc were even a twinkle in mankind's eye and you managed okay. I don't see why so many people are hung up on the idea that gun ownership means they must have an M16 or similar. Where does it end? I need a 40GW phase plasma rifle qnd a howitzer to defend my property.
You guys is not intended to reference any individuals, just the American people as a single simplified entity.
Dont take that too seriously. These people arnt exactly constitutional scholars. And theyre not afraid of the British. Theyre afraid of black CIA helicopters. Which is amusing because these are the same people who accuse the government of being incompetent. How the same people can be incompetent fools and evil masterminds simultaneously, I have yet to understand.
Basically, as far as I can tell, its a political temper tantrum by folks who still cant make their peace with the idea that there is a black Democrat in the White House for a second term who wasnt put there by a military junta.
