I'm fine with that as long as I am not the one who has to shut up. It's more and more the case around here.
Gun ownership, and proper use, should be encouraged, not merely tolerated. If we have a situation wherein too many people refuse to live up to the standards required of free citizens, do something about them, don't punish decent folks.
The problem seems to be that many of the bottom feeders are voters, when they aren't fornicating or mugging tourists, and the politicians need those votes, maybe even more than they need mine.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a wealthy elitist, I am financially near the bottom, but society has never had to lock any doors because of me, or support my children. I love kids, would have made a bunch of them, but I stopped when I had what I figured I could handle, and do it right.
That approach worked pretty good, BTW.
I get asked why I'm not a democrat, with all the "great" things they want to do "for" people "like" me. My answer is always that I don't like what they will do "to" me, in exchange for the milk and cookies.
Tellyawhat, if the Republicans ever get the urge to do those things "to" me, I'm gone! I'm only here for the Freedom!
