Y'all keep yelling about this right and that right, has it ever dawn on y'all that the only rights you are ever going to get is the ones you take, Malcom-X said it best " I have no Masters".

I agree; but that is why people vote. It really doesn't matter if we don't like the law once it is ratified. We must obey the law or face punishment. Just ask the smokers with all the new anti-smoking legislation being passed.

No, an armed group of Americans is not a good thing. We have the police to take care of crime; we don't need vigilantes. Now if you want to purchase a gun for your own personal security then by all means go right ahead.

Besides our founding fathers wrote the 2nd amendment with the intention of giving individual states the right to form a "well regulated" militia. We still have this militia; its just called the National Guard these days.

I surely agree with this train of thought. I believe in the right to purchase a weapon for one's own self defense or sport use; subject to existing weapon regulations, but I am againt the very idea of vigilatism.

Does that mean that being a man means to disobey laws at will if you don't agree with them? I have a hard time even thinking that.
