millions of people a year, who we don't know are violent or not, cross our border and the government is barely lifting a finger to do anything about it.

Hey, I don't know if you're violent either. Let's lock you up until I know for sure that you're 100% safe.

How many illegals COULD have crossed the border in the last 5 years?
How many of those MIGHT have carried several guns, like machine guns, with them?

Why, though, is it solely up to the citizens to take care of the problem. You say the government won't stop them. OK. Change the government. Elect people that will.

How many of those COULD be conspiring to bring about the kind of mass carnage like what happened on 9/11?

And space aliens COULD be scanning your brain right now, but that doesn't mean you have to go put on a tinfoil hat.
Ya know what the problem with your pro-gun stance is? Your arguments just don't hold water. For what seems like years now you've been preaching that we must be armed in case the government becomes tyrannical and stops doing what the people want it to do. Beyond the obvious arguments that you still don't seem to understand that a few farmers with rifles won't stop a tank, that argument still doesn't make sense. After all, over 70% of the people want us out of Iraq, and the government is refusing to comply with that desire, all while suppressing freedoms and rights at an astonishing rate. In short, the situation that you claim we need our guns for is here, right now, and I don't see anyone shooting.
Could it be that this has occurred to you and that's why you're suddenly switching to the "damn evil foreigners and their scary weapons" tactic?
