Listen dude should the govt decide they want to declare war on civilans do you want a pea shooter or a machine gun. The president has a limited ability to deploy and use drone attacks on American soil on Americans should he decided to do so in the event they might be "terrorist" with out a whole lot of intervention because the govt. decides what the defination of terriorism. Different branches of the govt do different things and restrict the rights of people based on their opinion not the general populus view. Prohibition for instance...they took away alcohol and pot. The general public would have stopped that had it been a national vote I would assume since alcohol is now legal in most places. State govt's are now putting pot to a vote and guess what pot's making a comeback too. The fed's have pot listed in the same category as LSD, heiron, oxycodone, coccaine and such do you personally believe that pot is as bad as any of those? Tax payers have to house these people it makes up most of our prison system especially in state where you have that three strike program and first time felony for any amount. Not that I do either anymore but in my younger days I did drink and once in awhile smoke some. Hell even our current president has and a sizable list before him have. George Washington was famous for his moonshine, think you can actually find his recipe on the internet. The point I'm making is it takes a lot of effort and decades to regain freedom of choice and rights lost to new laws that limit individual freedom once the govt makes changes like they're trying to impliment now...no I don't think they're out to get me...no I'm not a politican or lawyer...no I don't belong to any of the right wing groups or civial groups or gangs, unless GPAA is...no I'm not a criminal. Past events like Ruby Ridge, Waco and some more current events like the rabid x-cop man hunt in California. Had the police told the truth about burning the place down instead of lying about it I would have been good with that, if they said something like "he was way to dangerous and to prevent further loss of life we did what we had to"...I'm good with that to I think he got what he deserved but not due process. I happened to be watching that day when they had him cornered with the news crew there I heard a cop in the background say burn it down, thats how I know they lied. I remember several year ago and I don't remember who stated it but they were from Austraila, I think one of those A nations anyway. said to not let them take your gun rights away as they have here, being a natural skeptic I blew it off now look whats happening, they talk about gun control not that I think it's emenient at this moment in time but really we need to protect what our forefathers wrote because they all dealt with tyranny face to face that's why its wrote the way it is...
Guys I'm not radical at all even if it sounds like I may be...but there is no reason for any public offical to lie about what they did when so many people heard it with their own ears. They didn't know anyone was listening it was a live breaking news event. Now if that sounds radical I'm sorry but when you put blind faith in them and scoff at the idea that it might be happening, by the time you realize you were wrong its gonna be too late. No matter what branch you served or didn't serve in you are still American and have a right to bear arms with all the ammo you can afford....just don't go to my local wal-mart they don't have any or their out I don't know which and no one would tell me when anymore was coming I check the service desk just to make sure yesterday. Just think of this why does everything need a permit? Thats a simple answer for me, its a form of control limiting your rights to do something in a public place that was once totally legal for those who came before us...Permits can be revoked at any time for any reason.
