Also, why is it that the people yelling loudest about national security, who are willing to sign away our rights in the interest of public safety, are the ones most staunchly opposed to restricting guns? Gun violence in America kills more Americans every year than all terrorist attacks totaled. Why are we willing to go to such great lengths for safety from others, but not for safety from within?
This is a very, very good question. are you aware that during Katrina the police and national guard were kicking in doors (even in rich white neighborhoods) and searching for guns? if someone was home they merely barged in and demanded any guns, searching the property if necessary. if no one was home as I said they kicked in the doors and searched. all they needed to claim was that people having guns endangered the police. that is all that is needed at any time. the NRA is still fuming over that one. and you are right. We are living in a time when we are told everything we do is suspicious and certain groups are okay with police treating as as if we are criminals. before the facts are even in! and yet they change their minds when asked to give up guns. we cannot have it both ways. we are either free or not.
