Well you can't rule over a population that can shoot back. It's the goal no matter how many losses they take. They are passionate about ruling over us and you can't rationalize emotions.
I hope we never have to shoot back, but yeah, I do believe both sides don't want a civil war but I feel like we are already there, it's just that it hasn't really got violent yet.Agreed, but your first sentence exposes the futility of their task.
They figure to knock our numbers down piecemeal, through intimidation and lawfare, but when they cross that line that effectively says "you can't have your rights, anymore" then what's to be lost by shooting back.
Using the figures from the most recent fraudulent election one would suppose 81 million mostly unarmed people would be trying to subdue 73 million people, who are mostly armed to the teeth (training regimens aside).
They endlessly claim "the right wing wants a civil war" (though none of us do), but they don't possess the self awareness, or a vivid enough imagination, to see what they're heading into.
Although they may strive to make it so, we'll never be put in a position where we can't shoot back.
Government has gone, for the most part, too far. Our forefathers did not instill term limits, because they could not even foresee any government officials, trying to stay in government for decades...a nice thought, but nieve at best.I would like to live in a country where I won't get murdered while shopping for groceries or visiting a mall with my family or have my door kicked in by supposed victims of poverty...but I don't.
My Second Amendment right provides me something that shall not be infringed upon, my right to protect my family and myself from harm.
Ridiculous and (in my novice opinion) illegal manipulations of our Constitutional rights will not stop criminals and evil people from obtaining firearms and using them against good citizens. I refuse to allow my family to fall prey to others evil intentions.
I cannot depend on the police to save my family when they are 10 minutes away and five armed attackers are kicking in my door. I cannot depend on the police when a lunatic opens fire in a crowded mall or grocery store. I don't want or need very much, but my right to quickly and overwhelmingly put a stop to violence from happening to my family, is non-negotiable.
It would seem that those that manipulate the law to disarm the good citizens, do so because they are afraid of said good citizens. They don't want to lose their power, control, money, status, etc. Perhaps, they have agendas that work against the citizenry for their benefit. Perhaps, they have forgot that they work for us, not lord over or own us. Freedom doesn’t mean more control.
