Anyone that thinks, that any gun ban is going to bring safety to the masses, needs to be made aware of this. Gun confiscation has lead to genocide, over and over and over.  People that think its ok for government to take, for instance assualt rifles better think twice. Expecially gun onners. It makes me sick when I hear a fellow gun owner say "they can have assualt rifles, what does anyone need them for"  Everyone needs to read this list of citizen exterminations, and know that it CAN happen here. 

With arms we are citizens. Without them we are subjects.

It all boils down to the same old thing.  The masses pay the price for a few!  Don't believe me?  Look at how many MILLIONS of people have to remove their shoes at the airport because of ONE moron.  We gun owners/reloaders/sportsman are systematically singled out because when the "chips are down"  we CAN make a difference.

  Although I don't have any assault type rifles, clearly we are foolish if we let the antis "divide and conquer" us. Most often it is the cl;oset liberal that is willing to compromise the 2nd article of the "BILL OF RIGHTS"..
 
  Note:The antis , either through ignorance or intentional lying..misuse the term. Technically, an "assault" rifle is full automatic.

Yes it makes me wanna reach thru the TV and choke someone! Causes me stress(stress is what your body develops when you really want to choke the living crap outa someone but know you cant.).  They make it seem like we all run around with full auto's.  And all those assault rifles we sell to the mexican drug cartels.


An Email/ letter with the definition of assault rifle should be sent(by every member of the NRA) with every mention of assault rifle in the press and media.

Oh well no use getting worked up this close to bedtime!
