Why we are GOING to lose our guns (long & bitter)

Randy,

The beauty of the 2nd is that it's never needed until it's under attack.

Even if 90% of American gunowners were neutralized and their weapons confiscated, that still leaves about 6,500,000 people with about 16,000,000 weapons.

That's a significant force.

Rest easy, guys, the Founding Fathers are watching our back.
 
At some point, instead of bitching about it, you must DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I have decided after attaining the age of 30, to finish my degree, and pursue the teaching of Government and History. Two subjects sorely lacking in publik skules. There are a lot of TFL'rs out there who are retired, and living comfortably. Get off your lazy asses, and contribute morally to the nation. No it is not your responsibility, but if not you, then who? Step up to the plate, and find some way that you can pass on what is lacking from society. You can volunteer at a local library (preferably in a local school), and make sure the correct books are in abundance. There are all sorts of sneaky ways you can make a HUGE difference. My way of thinking is that I'll have 4 classes of 25 pupils each semester. In one year, I will have dis-indoctrinated about 200 young people. For some, the seed will germinate. They will become lovers of liberty, and law, and maybe do the same thing. It is a snowball. I only have to hide my intentions for my first 3 years, and teach statist socialism until I get tenure. Once tenured, I can teach GUNS, GUTS, Liberty, and maybe even sneak in God from time to time. It'll be almost impossible to fire me, and I'll get to use their own system to my advantage. It is always easier to apologize than to ask permission.
Point is, you wont make a damn bit of difference bitching to folks older than you. Somebody has got to roll up the sleeves and get to work fixing a problem whether you created it, or not. (We all created the mess we're in by lethargy. So we all must get at it). I'd like to hear what others are doing to bring us back to the way things ought to be.

I know how to use a gun just fine and I believe in my right to bear arms, but I will shoot any communist that comes to my door trying to make me join the military against my will. I don't care how important the cause. The power of the government is to be derived from the will of the people, not the other way around, and if they don't show me that respect, I will shot them what a .308 NATO round feels like. I will not now, nor ever support forced servitude. We ended slavery in this country for civilians, and it must never be allowed for the government.

I twist the facts until they tell the truth
 
"It'll be almost impossible to fire me..."

kjm,

You'll be lucky to get hired in the first place. Try this: next time you have to deal with one of these sensitivity training workshops, they'll ask you to identify yourself "however you define yourself." Some will respond "I'm white," "I'm black," "I'm gay," etc., etc. Identify yourself in this wise:

"I'm a God-fearing, patriotic, irreconcilably hetero-sexual gun-loving carnivorous believer in the free market system and the Constitution of the United States."

Watch what happens.

The thought police are indeed after you, and they run academia, Hollywood, the mainstream news media, the executive office and about 1/3 of the legislature. Think they'll let you within a mile of impressionable minds?

But I wish you luck. I'm a history/poli-sci major myself. I'm teaching English overseas, which should tell you something.

ALARM! ALARM! CIVILIZATION IS IN PERIL! THE BARBARIANS HAVE TAKEN THE GATES!
