In reply to the discussion: for gun fools claiming that their guns are to protect them from the government. [View all]MightyMopar

Quit spreading the RBKA extremist propaganda and glamourizing the insane fantasy of fighting the government. Go play a video game and quit spreading this crap. Just wear a sock over your head while you do it.
Drones are getting smaller and more precise with less collateral damage. Soon technology will make the guns these RBKA extremists claim they'll die for as obsolete as swords.
99% of the RBKA extremists will go home when their credit cards are cancelled, GMAC shuts down the computers in their vehicles and their wives threaten to leave them. Many of these gun guys wives are hostages anyhow and will turn them over in a heartbeat. Chris Rock made the point yesterday they should only allow people with mortgages be able to buy guns.
