If Trump gets a couple more SCOTUS picks we may be able to turn it around. If not and the leftists keep pushing, look for the militia groups to start forming. Real Americans will not be disarmed.

Good point, Jim.

What about government sanctioned gun violence by the US government? Would not disarming Americans only increase gun violence against them?

Deerpark might as put up a big Gun Free Zone near the highway exits and on streets leading into it. A whole community of rich, complacent, unarmed residents ready for the pickings.

I’m shopping for a Sig rifle. Already have my Glock. Might as well go down shooting the best.

> So far it looks like the founders didn’t figure right.

What would you have suggested, at the time, for a better system?

I have a poster detailing this same study, citing 262 million deaths in the 20th century alone due to democide, posted on my office door.

The genius of our free republic is limited government, government designed for and particularly limited to the protection of our unalienable rights.

Effective self defense personally and even against despotic government is an unalienable right, and even a responsibility. But, I do not use my poster of this only to argue for individually armed citizens, one point of the genius of these United States, though I do use it for that.

I ALSO use it because it argues, as is emphasized by your presentation, that big government (in language even the left can appreciate) is the biggest public health hazard that exists! It is a disease. Big government kills. We control it by our ingenious law first. Then we back that up with our arms.

We cannot lose either. Every time we argue for our rights recognized by the Second Amendment, we need to re-advocate for our strictly limited government.

This Orthodox Americanism needs posted over and over.

Thank you, Jim.

I have a Remington 700 SPS in .308 and while it’s been a very nice rifle I’ve been saving up to order a Christensen Arms precision .308 and I hope to have it by this summer!

Coyotes beware!!! (-:

The $oreA$$ funded elite leftists may be backing away from their dream to impeach President Trump.

Now, they are going 24/7 to do away with and destroy our second amendment to disarm us.

Then, they will kill us and our families like their heroes, Stalin/Hitler/Mao/the Castros and other fascist murdering leaders did to their political enemies after they were unarmed.

Perhaps something more directly imported from Germany?
