I am sick of the "love it or leave it" crap. I love my country, and choose to stay here and improve it, thank you.
I happen to be in agreement with most of those protesters you mention; the ones with principles, that is, not just the ones who are cause-heads out to feel good, get off from work, or get laid.
And you are free to delude yourself all you like about the likely response should this abomination of a bill actually succeed in passing. Thankfully, the CongressCritters are not so deluded ( Good Lord, I hope not, anyway! ) and will most likely not pass this monstrosity. There are 80,000,000+ gun owners in the US. Say that 10% of those are truly radical; willing to actually take a stance against such tyranny and injustice. That's 8,000,000 Men/women under arms...more than triple the size of the entire US Armed Forces. Now, the technological advantage enjoyed by the Feds would be a tough sell. But the Vietcong, Mujehadin, and Native Americans all fought against a similar ( for their day ) advantage, and won.
Contrary to your implicit assertion, I am not some illiterate yokel sitting on his front porch swilling PBR and taking potshots at passing hippies, blacks, Jews, and Mexicans. Nor do I have any wish to EVER use force, lethal or otherwise, against another Human Being. I certainly will not INITIATE the use of force; my morals forbid it. But I will defend my Life and Liberties, and those of my family and fellow Americans, tooth and nail, to the death. And yes, this includes the rights of every poster on this forum, believe it or not.
