“I realize that your mindset is that nobody needs a gun. But, if a government can take the guns of citizens, then they will take away the right to assemble, or free speech, even more than they already have. People’s property rights supersede the nefarious goals of the progressive left. I dare you to open your eyes to the goals of the quasi-communist Democratic Party.” – Fred Avery in a Letter to the Editor to usatoday.com
Well done! Bravo!
You only have those rights you can defend.
“quasi”?

And the incestuous relationship between commie pinkos and the American leftists.
It is not a “relationship”, they are one and the same…..all Communists/Marxists.
I’m amazed that the USA Today published this, and that 99% or so (unscientifically counted!) fully support everyone’s natural right to bear arms to protect themselves, their family, their property and their community (should the SHTF, LA riot style).
I meant to say 99% of the comments…..
Too Late. Conservatives should have nominated someone like Kasich, who led Hillary by 10 points or more in every head to head pole. Loudmouth blowhards like Trump and Cruz can never win the US presidency.
The destruction of the firearms industry will pale next to what Hillary’s trial lawyers will do to US businesses – it will be a frivolous lawsuit feeding frenzy and her SCOTUS will uphold the idiocy. Your savings will be gobbled up too — IRAs. 104Ks and pensions will all be gathered up and equally distributed to every American, whether they have worked or not.
The US is going to be another Venezuela.
Yeah, another RINO cuck, that’s the answer! Just like Romney, McCain and Dole. Fvck off and stop whining about Trump. He won the primary for a reason. Deal with it.
And he’s losing the election for another.
Where did you purchase your crystal ball? Or are you blindly buying what the Hillary-slurping main stream media is selling you?
Lester Holt and Obumer told you so?
Kasich did so well in every State outside Ohio, wait what? The man is just another RINO.
We were told by the RINOs to hold our noses and vote for those RINO cucks Dole, McCain and Romney. Now it’s time for the RINOs to hold their noses and vote for Trump.
And if they do, Trump wins 44% of the vote, going down to crushing defeat because he’s got zero crossover appeal. Republicans face an uphill battle every single election. Democrats start with a four point lead in party affiliation (48% – 44%), and the media is on their side. For them, winning their own voters can be enough. Maybe sometimes they’ll need to budge slightly to pull a few additional points.
So, yeah, maybe Kasich is a RINO, but someone who completely secures the Republican base but doesn’t pull in anyone from outside of it cannot win the Presidency. Someone like Trump, who has trouble doing even that, is totally screwed.
And if your response is “biased polls” then you’ll truly be forever doomed to losing. There’s a real problem to be solved. Denying reality may make you feel better, but it gets you no votes and wins no elections.

Kasich would pull no more that 60% of the Republican base. The GOP has problems but you political newcomers can figure out that the demtards/Hellery have WORSE problems.
Stop listening to the Gobbels mediatards.
Yes. Carlos assumes 100% R turnout, 100% D turnout, and a split down the NPA folks. All bad assumptions.
The .gov is already slowly stripping our right away…
But, I’ll take having guns rather than not having them.
“… if a government can take the guns of citizens, then they will take away the right to assemble, or free speech …”
It is extremely important to note government’s rationale for taking firearms:
(1) Firearms can be detrimental to government and popular interests. Therefore …
(2) Only “proper” people (e.g. police, military, and some ruling class) can have firearms.
The sad reality is that a government can use the same rationale as follows:
(1) Assembly and free speech can be detrimental to government and popular interests. Therefore …
(2) Only “proper” people (in a certain political party) can assemble and exercise free speech.
It is a tragic fact that a significant fraction of mankind — which includes governments — refuses to “live and let live” … instead opting to harass, suppress, punish, imprison, and/or murder people who are “different”. Of course harassing, suppressing, punishing, imprisoning, and murdering people is much easier and safer if the people are unarmed. Do not EVER forget that.
Hillary has already said she wants to destroy conservative websites such as Brietbart if/when she ‘ascends the throne’. The attack on the 1st has been going on for quite some time.
“Hillary has already said she wants to destroy conservative websites such as Brietbart …”
Sources?
This literally took 15 seconds to find:
http://dailycaller.com/2016/08/18/hillary-campaign-vows-to-destroy-opposition-website/
Do the work yourself next time.
The Gray Man,
First of all, The Daily Caller is hardly an authoritative source. More importantly, the e-mail that Hillary’s deputy communications director allegedly distributed does not pledge to shut down Breitbart.
The farthest that the e-mail goes is:
(1) “… [Breitbart] never have been and never should be anywhere near the levers of power in this country.”
— and —
(2) “It goes without saying that we have to beat these people. But I want to beat them so decisively that their kind never rises again …”
While both statements communicate disdain, neither statement is a pledge to shut-down Breitbart. And I read the second statement to mean that Progressives want to beat Conservatives so badly in the election that Conservatives in general and Conservative media voices specifically will shrivel up and fade away.
That last sentiment is totally consistent with the fact that Progressives operate on altruism, fantasy, and emotion. In their minds a decisive Progressive victory in the upcoming election will:
(1) Show Conservatives that they are wrong.
(2) Cause Conservatives to change their position.
(3) Eliminate Conservatives’ incentive to speak out.
Of course Conservatives will not suddenly realize that their positions are “wrong” and go silent if Progressives win by a landslide. That doesn’t feel good to Progressives, though. So Progressives turn to fantasy to give them an “inevitable” outcome that Conservatives will come around to the altruistic good of Progressivism … that is an outcome that feels good. And that is why they state their expectation for such an outcome.
no-sense. I assume you get your source material from CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSLSD? good plan. Tool
The progtards have already been blocking conservative political video from Youtube (yes the google bastards). The libs have LOST the battle for ideas on the internet. They fully intend to win or neutralize it. Thus Barry turning it over to the UN bozos.
neiowa,
“I assume you get your source material from CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSLSD?”
WRONG.
An authoritative source would include the likes of:
— evidence vetted at a court proceeding
— an audio recording
— a video recording
— a public statement (on public record)
College and university administrations everywhere are doing exactly that to the First Amendment, and have been for quite a while.
Nice photo. Imagine the story line.
“Hey, let’s do some target shooting before prom. Loser buys dinner!”
Rifle has offset sights but no optic on top. Needs an ACOG or something.
Curtis, that’s not exactly a prom outfit…
You’d know about prom dresses graygay…LOL. Pretender.
call him prom- zim.
I wanted to come in and say something crass like, “Nice rack… of shells on the side of that shotgun!” but I won’t do tha… oh. Oops. Sorry ma’am.
But you have to understand these people WANT the government to take away the right to assemble and WANT to remove free speech. But YOUR right to assemble and free speech. They also do not care about your property rights and would at the barrel of a government gun take all you gave and give it to other people that are basically social parasites.
They also do not care about your life and many hold down a deep hope that one day they government will blanket ban all guns and use the US military on US soil to round up and kill all gun owners. All 130-150 million of us.
These people are so evil it is beyond human comprehension. Arguing with logic and reason means nothing to people that want you and everyone like you exterminated. They view the US government killing almost half of it’s population as a good thing to bring about there progressive liberal utopia.
You cannot argue with this type of mindset.
“Shawn”, I do wish you were wrong.
A few years ago I would have disagreed with you.
Now, more and more, as the evidence piles up,
I’m becoming afraid that you’re right…
Shawn,
Thank you for your post. It mirrors my post above where I said:
Those among us who are decent and honorable figure that we must be able to reason with someone who disagrees with us. And that is true when the person who disagrees with us is also decent and honorable. Unfortunately, there are a LOT of people in the world who are NOT decent and honorable. Such people have no interest in reasoning with you. They are only interested in taking what they want from you.
If the SHTF, will we be given room to destroy? I sure hope so. I mean, why should #BLM have all the fun.
When SHTF occurs the only pleasure to take from it will be knowing that the parasite population will take it on the chin far worse than the rest of the population. The only parasites that will survive will be those that link up with criminal gangs. Of course the scumbags in .gov will ride it out on the backs of your previous labor.
The pic reminds me of an incident just earlier this week…..my daughter wanted me to pick up her “boyfriend” and bring him back to the house to hang out….I told her she had to hit 9 out of 10 on the steel target about 20 yards out with the 22/45. damn if she did not hit 10 of 10. that’s my girl.
Perhaps we should make a statement and turn November 9th into #BuyAnAR day. Here’s a bit more of my thought on it: http://wp.me/p5yCHs-i2. It would send a message regardless who wins.
MUCH better would be Nov 7.
If the Dowager Empress wins Nov 9 will happen “organically”.
BEAUTIFULLY said.
…love that blue dress too. mm mmmm
