Darn those libs will never git rid of Larry the Cable Guy.

I have a dream to counter the nightmare of Aurora. I see four ex-presidents standing together, speaking truth to the American people. Here is what they would say:
"Our fellow Americans, we have come together not as Democrats or Republicans, but as men who have been privileged to lead this great country. We all treasure the constitution and the Second Amendment. We believe that Americans have the right to own guns. But that amendment does not entitle citizens to own combat weapons like the assault weapon that the shooter used to kill 12 and wound 58 more in a Colorado theater. The AR-15 assault rifle is a military style weapon designed to feature high-capacity ammunition magazines capable of firing up to 30 rounds of ammunition without reloading.....

When reading a liberal screed such as this, it is useful to remember that the largest mass murders of all time were committed by socialist governments.
Darn those libs will never git rid of Larry the Cable Guy.
We're pausing commenting on this content for now, as we move The Daily Beast to our new commenting platform.
***What aboot your prescious Ronald Wilson Reagan (666) he waz shot two!***
Wuzzn’t kilt. Neither was Teddy Roosevelt. FDR wuzzn’t but Antoine Cermak next to him wuz.
Hey putz, if you treasure the Constitution and the second amendment, you might notice it is “the right to bear arms” - not “own guns”
After guns are banned, knives are banned, after that they start bannning ideas.....
Then they start shipping people away who disagree with them....
For the millionth time, the “Assault Weapons” ban did nothing to slow down gun crime or crime in general. In fact gun crime continued to decline after the ban expired.
That ban today would do nothing but temporarily ease the severely troubled minds of liberals at the expense of the liberty for the rest of us.
If only we had “progressive” gun control laws like, say, Norway, mass murder couldn’t happen here, right?
Two of those Presidents are traitors and the other two are stealth RINOS...
Who knows WHAT they “believe”..
Examples of what americas people have sunk to..
We have NOW the givernment that reflects “the People”..
ELSE america would have chosen better on at least one of them.. they(WE) didn’t..
'We need to take control of such weapons to assure that they don't fall into the hands of criminals.'
So, Ms. Miller, to fix this, I take it you propose to give that control to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives. this is the same agency that illegally FORCED gun dealers to sell thousands of military-grade weapons to drug cartels, weapons that killed hundreds of people.
I see.
Somehow, I think those weapons are safer in the hands of law abiding citizens.
Actually the 2nd Amendment DOES give us the right to own “combat weapons”.
The founders knew that to fight an effective war you would need arms that are the same if not superior to that of the army you are fighting. In the Revolutionary war we armed with muskets and with rifles. Rifles were superior to the muskets used by the British. That gave us an advantage due to the accuracy of the rifles used. We also used guerrilla tactics to fight and didn’t follow the standard “stand and fire” methods used by many armies of the time.
This writer is a total fool and has little knowledge of the history that lead up to the writing of the Constitution.
If any president did what he is saying then it would be a time to rise up and fight back against any government that would try to keep me from having the arms I need to fight against such tyrants.
I have a dream to counter liberal idiots.
I have a box with a red button on it. When I push it, liberals would be instantly banished to the other side of the universe.
It turns into a nightmare, though. Every time, I break the button by pushing it too hard.
And where exactly is THAT stated in the text of the 2nd Amendment?
"The AR-15 assault rifle is a military style weapon..."
The Kentucky long rifle and the flintlock are also military style weapons. They were once used to to overthrow a tyrant many years ago. That's what they are for!
Her fantasy would be better served with a cucumber.
What a buffoon.
The 2nd Amendment isn’t just about owning guns. It is about Citizens being able to resist an oppressive government. Ownership of automatic and semiauto weapons are exactly what the 2nd Amendment stands for today, not hunting rifles and bows.
And then comes the chorus line of redheaded Rockettes...
This idiot and BOR both toss aroud the AWB as if it were a magical talisman. I know several folks who got their ARs and AKs via perfectly legal means during the tenure of the AWB. Their guns are not equipped with such evil features as flash hiders (aiiiieeee!) bayonet lugs (oh noes) or adjustable stocks (ohthehugemanatee!) Which is to say that the AWB was one of the most profoundly silly laws ever passed.
The 2nd Amendment isn’t just about owning guns. It is about Citizens being able to resist an oppressive government. Ownership of automatic and semiauto weapons are exactly what the 2nd Amendment stands for today, not hunting rifles and bows.
We might want to reevaluate our decisions that the Constitution protects gangs and gangland activity, or that free speech covers the saturation of violence and crime in entertainment. For that matter, most of pop culture is contrary to peaceful and secure civilization.
There are some things even a cucumber won't do ...
Another ignoranus heard from.
