Last year, Mr. Sarkozy told French radio: "Security is the responsibility of the state. I am against the private ownership of firearms. If you are assaulted by an armed burglar, he will use his weapon more effectively than you anyway, so you are risking your life."

You just needed a little more to that quote. Ah yes, once a Frenchman always a Frenchman.

The lesson provided by the Brits begging Americans to send firearms to them as private individuals during WWII has faded into the oblivion of history....

>>If you are assaulted by an armed burglar, he will use his weapon more effectively than you<<

Sadly, according to recent FBI studies there is a lot of truth in that, especially when compared to the usual police recurrent training - 50 rounds every 6 months. Scumbags, not having to attend sensitivity classes and the like, have a lot more time to practice with a gun.

And our fellow law abiding 2nd Amendment supporters? In our CCW (concealed carry) classes, 95% of the students will get the license, buy a box of cartridges, then stick them both in the nightstand or the glovebox and forget about practicing. Dumb.

With relatively inexpensive ammo (for example, .40 S&W is $21./box of 100 at Wally Mart) there is no excuse not to be more proficient than your local depraved (lefties read “deprived”)sociopath. You should get out to the range every 4-6 weeks. Don’t use bullseye targets - use a vertical 8-1/2 x 11” paper, 4’ to 5’ off the ground, and no further away than 21’ (Google up “Tueller Drill” for an explanation).

It was Leninist dogma and hence Liberal belief that the criminal classes are social allies of the Left, representatives of the repressed and oppressed classes and , handily, useful for intimidating the bourgeoisie- the middle class.

Most Americans have no clue as to how much our “left” has patterned its oppressive, power-centric agenda after the arch Communists of history.

It worked for their idols.

If you want to maintain a population of sheep, it’s imperative you keep the pen gate closed. Letting wolves in because they act oppressed and bedraggled is an unsustainable policy.
