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, You’re 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?
That’s 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.
