Convo usually starts with the lib saying “I’m going to enjoy watching the law eradicate you gun nuts”
My reply is typically, “Don’t you believe that citizens should have the right to defend themselves?”
Because it is an uncomfortable question they shift gears with, “When TSHIF the cops and the military are gonna hunt you down like the rabid dogs you are, and I’m gonna point you out to them”.
This is where I say something like, “When TSHTF I won’t bother trying to fight with forces that are better outfitted than I. Instead, the chaos that ensues will give me cover to seek the retribution you’ve been begging for all these years. I know where you live - I know where your children go to school - I know where you work and hang out. I won’t go up against SWAT teams in MRAPS and auto weapons but I will eliminate as many of YOU as I feel like, on my timetable, at my discretion, and with complete impunity. The cops will be so busy putting down rioters and looters they won’t have time to bother with the likes of you. I’ll take your food, your shelter, and anything else I want. You won’t be needing it anymore.”
“You are the ones responsible for where we are today and as the old proverb goes, “They that sow the wind, shall reap the whirlwind”
It’s best done with a soft voice and a smile... ;-)
“It’s best done with a soft voice and a smile... ;-)”
That’s still gonna leave a mark.
