Laugh all you like and call it propaganda. If you can't make the connection between disarming the civilian populace and 'reasonable' gun control as making sure that the government will always be stronger than the people, then there is no help for you at all, whatsoever.

I just did. Statists, like yourself, would rather entrust your protection and lives to a political body instead of retaining that which is rightfully yours and all because you distrust your fellow man. Is the fear of the responsibility of protecting your freedom and liberty so great that you would rather take the risk, however small, that what you see in the linked video could be your fate as well?

gun control is the 800 pund gorilla, nobody wants to talk or discuss it. I'm not surprised that it doesn't even register, yet i'm sure it would be as bright as a thousand suns if there were even talk about opening up the machine gun registry to the 'people',....after all, americans are not to be trusted with weapons of mass destruction and shit.
