Trump Supporters Gathering in D.C. - Mayor Readies for Those ‘Seeking Confrontation’

Custer at Little Big Horn or Custer whipping JEB Stuart at Gettysburg???

He didn't really whip JEB stuart at east cavalry field. Stuart was overrated anyway

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

I just don't agree.

I didn't expect you to agree. Fortunately, with modern 3d printing technology, gun control laws are effectively useless.

I was thinking more mini-nukes, surface to air missiles, anthrax, and land mines.

Only the government owns that stuff

and?

Saw one report that they defecated in the House chamber.

It was on Twitter so I just assumed it was true.

To be fair, many of our elected representatives do this on a fairly regular basis, albeit surreptitiously.

The incidence increases exponentially during filibusters.

Why should the government but not the individual have access to these weapons?

Isn't the government just a conglomeration of individuals? And a conglomeration of unprincipled individuals at that?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

and?

So why are you worried about them?

Because it represents an unacceptable level of danger to society at large.

Fair enough. I appreciate your reply.

Gun control is an issue I've struggled with for years. I see the validity of both sides of the argument. I'm still not sure about it, honestly. I've got "gun nut" (and I don't mean that negatively, don't take that as an insult) friends that I would absolutely trust my life with and have no issue with them owning an extensive collection of firearms, even if they had an RPG. Since I've never really been able to make up my mind about it, I tend to support less restriction.

 

[luthervol]

because Pepe thinks individuals should be allowed to own those things.
It shows the idiocy of the natural extension of the "any weapon" debate.

I would proudly wear a gun nut badge. Suffice it to say that I have an extensive gun collection and not one of those guns has been used in an act of violence upon another individual. 99.9% of gun owners can say the same.

Lonnie Leroy from Alabama is definitely a member of ANTIFA.

Does this mean you are acknowledging both sides were in DC, and that the violent stuff was probably left wing as usual? And that the fools in the press were either deceived or erroneously (and probably erogenously) pointing the blame in the wrong place. False flag.

He also said any firearm and then later said any gun. What you named isn't a gun

Why?

Does a government elected by these same individuals not represent unacceptable level of danger to society at large?

 

[Pepe_Silvia]

Imo, the spirit of the 2A as written is that the citizens should never be denied access to any weapon that is available to the state.

Worrisome Signs the Capitol Breach was Planned to Discredit Trump Supporters: An Eyewitness Account

Been saying this from when the video showing that the cops moved the barriers aside and basically led them in. Pelosi is likely the architect - the squad is too stupid.

Government represents an acceptable level of danger to society at large.

Personally, I just don't think millions of drunk knuckleheads need to be walking around with mini-nukes.

I said not to take it as an insult, that wasn't how I meant it.

I dont agree that government represents an acceptable level of danger to society.

In fact, I would argue that they have shown a complete lack of fitness for owning any weapons. How many millions of unarmed people have been killed by governments throughout the world?

I'm lost then. Oh well.

Reread my post. I meant gun nut like Star Wars nut or any other hobby. I'm not attacking.

 

[AM64]

and?

And the government owns you. Thanks to your kind this is no longer of, by, and for the people.

I understand. But IMO that is crazy and proves why it can not be interpreted that way.
It highlights the importance of the "well regulated militia" part.

But I have zero desire to debate 2a,
I'd rather just enjoy watching the final breakdown of Trumpism.

Yeah, I didn't think you were being demeaning. We need more of my generation that dont see gun ownership as abhorrent.
