My husband made the same observation the other day. If the purpose of the armed citizenry is to protect ourselves from an out of control government, then the citizens have the right to keep and bear the same kind of arms that would be used against them.
In many instances, the farmers and merchants who opposed the columns of red coats in April 1776 had better weapons than the British were carrying.

I think I should be able to pool resources with my neighbors and buy a cannon and a Gatling gun, with lots of ammo for practice on a range. I’m serious. Who knows where the upcoming race war is going to spill out.

In most states, muzzle loading cannon and manually operated Gatling guns are perfectly legal and fairly easy to obtain. Go for it.
Up until 1968, you could legally order anti-aircraft guns and anti-tank guns and ammo through the mail without federal permission.

Charley Reese put it very well in his column of which I "quote a part: The Orlando Sentinel Commentary Section July 19, 1998 When Confronted By a Criminal, Youre Back on the U.S. Frontier By Charley Reese The easiest way to resolve, in your own mind, the gun-control debate is to take this little test. 1. Do you believe that you have a right to live? 2. Do you believe that your spouse and children have a right to live? 3. If someone is threatening to kill you and your family, do you think that you have a right to defend yourself? Thats the objective, yes-or-no part of the quiz. Now here is one final essay question: How will you defend yourself and your family if you are confronted by an armed intruder or intruders?"
The problem with this approach is that it assumes liberals are just ignorant of the truth and if somehow you hit them with very simple logic they will understand and change their beliefs. WRONG!
Liberals actually KNOW they are wrong. They just lie about it. They actually KNOW they worship a false god of benevolent government. They lie even to themselves.
I guess what I'm saying is it's simply a waste of time. We can't get along with libs. We can't live with them having power to impose their will upon us. They must not be reasoned with, they must be STOPPED.
