"We were so busy just getting stuff done and dealing with the immediate crises that were in front of us that I think we lost some of that sense of speaking directly to the American people about what their core values are and why we have to make sure those institutions are matching up with those values."
-Obama, explaining recent Democrat losses, 1/20/10
As much as the left has poisoned public discourse, I wonder at their insistence that guns be banned. They have eliminated courtesy and civility to the point that physical violence is the only next step (and in some small cases they have crossed that line).
So what do they expect if they escalate in a big way? Some people apprently thought that firebombing the political opposition was the way to go at the Republican Convention – do they really want to go there? Do they really want to make it a physical confrontation?
Well, maybe if they could get the rest of us without our guns, I suppose. Thus, their perennial wet dream of mobilizing the full force of the federal government, i.e. lots of big scary guys in black BDUs and armed with guns, to disarm all of us. I guess they think that once having turned that against one half of the population that it would never turn their way.
But even if they disarmed the rest of us, most of them wouldn’t have the stomach for going hand to hand. But then again, there’s that big scary government, with all the big scary guys and their big scary guns – they obviously think they’ll be riding that tiger.
And all of the above is just a long way for me to say, they want to disarm us because that’s a condition of satisfying their totalitarian fantasies. How else to explain their unconcern at the stated intent of violent jihadis, and their pants wetting terror of their fellow citizens?

I’ve asked the same question whenever I’ve seen those inane “War is not the answer” stickers.
“Bare” arms or is it “bear” arms is it feet or feat.Does it make any difference
What, they want to ban tank tops?
