The Left is using a one-two punch to achieve their goals.
By threatening to confiscate guns, they are bringing the militia-types out making stupid statements like this.
Then, they will have the momentum to actually pass strict gun control to head off the Right’s militias.
We are being played.
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!
Patrick Henry frowns upon your conclusions.
