Metal tubes that use an explosive or propellant to project an object at high speed against people or property has been around since the late 1500s.

Stop and think about that.

They didn't have a lot of steel back then. Iron. Brass. Lots of the projectiles were stones.

We're not talking about technology that requires computers or even steel files.

Gun bans can't work. Ever.

The meme is out there.

The rest, as they say, is simple engineering.

Even a cook could build one.

Prior to the invention of personal firearms literally no one in Europe had freedom of conscience. If you attempted it you'd be burned at the stake as a heretic.

The Huguenots (French Protestants) gained their independence with personal firearms and at the end of the French Religious Wars they refused to stack arms. They kept them.

Many of our Founding fathers had a father, grandfather, great grandfather, or great great grandfather who had been a Huguenot ~ and who left France to evade the later tyrannies of Louis XIV!

Our Founders lived among those who knew what personal ownership of firearms meant. It means liberty itself ~ and freedom to think.

The news spread fast ~
