I'm sure you guys have seen this a bunch. but i thought i'd put it on.



If a conservative doesn´t like guns, he doesn`t buy one.
If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy.
A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.

If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect

If a black man or Hispanic are conservative, they see themselves as independently successful.
Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.

If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.

If a conservative doesn´t like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Liberals demand that those they don´t like be shut down.

If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn´t go to church.
A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it´s a foreign religion, of course!)

If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.

If a conservative slips and falls in a store, he gets up, laughs and is embarrassed.
If a liberal slips and falls, he grabs his neck, moans like he's in labor and then sues.

If a conservative reads this, he'll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh.
A liberal will delete it because he's "offended".

Soo ... conservatives = naive and selfish & liberals = others-oriented and understanding of the moral principles underlying the issues?

See, I didn't think that until I read this, thanks for the help!

if the subject line of the email starts with "FW:FW:FW:FW:" then it's a good bet it's stupid. Also, we don't count as you sending it to 5 friends so you're not going to get those wishes

Did you not read it clearly? Maybe you got the 2 confused.

I consider myself a conservative, and I thought the original post was funny, but it does work both ways.

If a liberal disapproves of prostitution, he doesn’t hire prostitutes. If a conservative disapproves of prostitution, he tries to throw prostitutes and their clients in jail.

If a liberal doesn’t like marijuana, he doesn’t smoke it. If a conservative doesn’t like marijuana, he starts a drug war.

If a liberal doesn’t like gay marriage, he doesn’t get one. If a conservative doesn’t like gay marriage, he fights to keep them illegal.

If a conservative doesn´t like guns, he doesn`t buy one. Nonsense because all conservatives like guns.
If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. Not because he doesn't like them, but because you don't need an AR-7 to go rabbit hunting.

If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat. And if its a conservative woman, she won't even put it in her mouth.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone. I know several vegetarians and they couldn't care less about what I eat.

If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy. Or makes one up.
A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good. Or defeat the actual enemy, as opposed to the one the conservative just made up to justify attacking the wrong place.

If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life. Until beaten to death by those he thought were his friends.
If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect So that he won't be beaten like the other guy was whn they found out he was gay.

If a black man or Hispanic are conservative, they see themselves as independently successful. And sometimes forget what it took for them to be so.
Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection. Or at least an equal shot at success, which will be characterized in typically oversimplistic fashion by the selfish as "taking my stuff."

If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. Including taking assistance for a short time from the system he used ot ***** about, such as unempployment, job retraining, Medicaid, and the like.
A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him. We all do that.

If a conservative doesn´t like a talk show host, he switches channels. Actually, they just don't bother to listen to any other point of view because the pretty people who live in the little box tell them not to.
Liberals demand that those they don´t like be shut down. You mean "held accountable."

If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn´t go to church.
A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it´s a foreign religion, of course!)
And a conservative non-believer rolls his eyes at how the alleged Christians within his party have managed to turn geopolitics into a giant game of high school cliques by continually failing to grasp the complexity of the world as something other than a world-wide game of "Red Rover."

If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. Until the day he qualifies for Medicare, which is also the day he decides Medicare isn't really socialism after all.
A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his. We all do, one way or another.

If a conservative slips and falls in a store, he gets up, laughs and is embarrassed. Until he talks to his l lawyer friend who specializes in commerical work, but refers him to the liberal trial lawyer down the street in exchange for a 25 % referral fee.
If a liberal slips and falls, he grabs his neck, moans like he's in labor and then sues. Thereby skipping the commercial lawyer's cut of the action, but otherwise being identical to the other fellow.

If a conservative reads this, he'll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh. At how truly simple-minded the author is.
A liberal will delete it because he's "offended". By how truly simple-minded the author is.

Clearly Law hasn't the slightest idea about weapons as the AR-7 would be fine for rabbits, particulary if you needed one for it's intended purpose as an emergency/stowable .22LR.

I know nothing about guns and hereby substiute "AR 50" for above.

So you have a problem with long range hunting?

:dunno:

At least that fits the criteria of something you don't "need" to hunt rabbits in a sort of overkill kinda way.

Then again the "not needed" argument is pretty specious anyway. Can you think of a more velvet tyranny than having "those in charge" decide what we "need"? (and I'm not even remotely talking about just firearms here)

If "need" ever becomes the sole criteria to "have" then any sense of freedom in this country will have long since departed.

We were given the 2nd amendment to over throw govt if necessary. Not to hunt

Actually one coincides with the other. At the time the 2nd was crafted hunting was a MAJOR source of food for a great number of people. And even that doesn't address the most fundamental right of all, being the right to self defense.

Sure hunting was the major way they got food then and we have it for self defense but again the main reason for the 2nd amendment is to over throw govt if we had to, if they became to controlling

While you make more of a distinction here I'll briefly point out the danger of diminishing the former at the expense of the latter.

It is the major argument the anti-2nds make that it is entirely this "for use against government tyranny" that was the original intent. This is what they use to push the "militia" agenda. Their purpose, of course, is to remove any individual right to KABA for any reason not specifically involved for purposes germane to a militia. (including hunting or self defense) When they can sell it this effectively allows them to curtail or even eliminate anything and everything involving the lawful use or ownership firearms for any "individual".

You are absolutely correct that the Constitution's crafters intended to have a populace that could not be rendered incapable of defending itself from it's own government by that same government's unlawful edict. However, to simply posit that as the only defensible means for gun ownership is very much a liability to the 2nd from a legal perspective.

Sorry if I was not clear. I think that all 3 reasons are vaild and why we have this amendment. I was just saying that the main reaon, not only but main reason is the defend ourselves for the govt.
As I heard on a local talk show today we have this amendment to ensure we keep all of the others.

Stepdad and I are going to the range this weekend to fire his AR-15. He got a new laser sight for it that is badazz. If I like it enough I may think about getting one myself and pimp it out with all kinds of mods.
