"America's gun culture needs to change."

"The challenge is to find ways to reassure devoted gun advocates that they are not in jeopardy from their elected and appointed officials."
The challenge for this generation of Americans is to address not only our own fears by curbing access to guns, but also to reassure the country's most devoted gun advocates that their government is not after them.
Right. Tell it to the Davidians. Or maybe the thousands of victims of Fast and Furious. I'll clue you in on a dead certainty, Dallek -- WE AIN'T GONNA CHANGE. So back up out of our faces before somebody gets hurt. Either that or have the courage of your "convictions" and get busy killing us. Those are the only two options open to you hot-house warblers of citizen disarmament. Deal with it.

These left-wingers constantly make reference in their writings of easy availability of guns. I remember when I was young you could buy a gun through the mail and have it delivered to your door. You could walk three blocks down the street to the ESSO station on the corner and buy a gun. J.C.Penny, Western Auto, Montgomery Wards, Sears, Wolfes Hardware, all had a line of guns, or you could order one out of their catalogs. The little Red & White corner grocery sold ammo. The left-wing lie of contemporary availability continues with this article. The picture of Waco, very appropriate, is exactly why I will never surrender my guns peaceably. If you have a death wish; lets git 'r done.

Lets make this simple, Pass a federal gunlaw, ANY law, and you get war. No more talk, No more matches. No "armed peacfull protest" ALL of that is useless bullshit. One more attack on our GOD ordained freedom and we fight. This should also extend to Smart ID and any other Ant-freedom laws dreamed up by the rat turd scum in DC.

If they'd stop trying to pass ill-conceived laws and read the Constitution, that'd be a big step.

We've gotta change. Why? Because they don't like us or our ways and only their ways matter.

I would imagine that if everyone in the country was sprinkled with the magical Unicorn fairy dust that Dalleck is obviously immersed in we could all agree that the government is our one and only true friend, protector and source of life sustaining nourishment spiritually, physically and intellectually.

But what the esteemed Mr. Dalleck doesn't seem to realize is that Unicorns don't exist and the magical dust he inhaled is only the propaganda spewed forth by his masters who seek ever more control of society in all aspects of life.

I'm not just concerned about gun rights, Mr. Dalleck, I want individual liberty, a culture of self-reliance and personal responsibility...I want the whole enchilada that individual liberty and true freedom entails.

You apostles of the progressive collective -- the real life Borg --claim to represent and defend minorities (we'll leave the fact that you actually enslave them at every turn for another discussion). The smallest minority is the individual. If you trample on any natural rights, liberties and or freedom of an individual you trample on them all and cannot honestly claim that you "protect" the rights of any minority.

Now go back to the collective and seek further "wisdom" before you become disassimilated from the suckling teat of tyranny....

Translation: "We need to conceive a lie so clever that everyone will believe it."

Anonymous @ 9:31 AM - the reality is that the lie has to be only clever enough that just enough people believe it to swing public opinion their way. That is all that is required 'just enough', not everyone.

"America's gun culture needs to change."

Well..... it is changing, just not in the way he might approve of. America's gun culture is becoming more radicalized at every misstep taken by those who see the founder's republic as something in the history books and The Constitution of The United States of America as something in the way of their socialist utopia.

Think about this for a minute. Ten years ago would you have imagined Walmart being unable to secure enough ammo to restock their shelves? Would you have imagined Brownell's selling three years worth of magazines in 72 hours? Would you ever have imagined a 2 year waiting list to buy an AR15? How about a 4 hour wait for an "instant" background check?

What has happened to our country? What has changed? Why is the firm solid earth suddenly moving under our feet?

Could you ever have imagined the Attorney General of The United States claiming that the President of The United States has the authority to have an American citizen killed without due process anywhere in the world because of what some top secret committee felt that citizen might do in the future?

Damn right America's gun culture needs to change!

What an appropriate last name.

Imagine that tool screaming 'Exterminate!' through an auto-tuner and you've got gist of it.

Part of my appreciation of guns is indeed based on fear. As all I really want is to be left alone, I like the fact that those who would not leave me alone might fear the consequences of their meddling.

For anyone who believes, and I do not, that contacting Prof. Dallek directly might serve some useful purpose, his email address is
rdallek@stanford.edu.

They realize that we will not change, and they must force our submission, before they dare attempt the next steps in their agenda.

They know full well they advocate civil war.

They think they'll survive it.

They may think they'll prosper, through it.

This is all smoke and mirrors. They know time is on their side because their are already indoctrinating the kids at school on their entire agenda. When they're done, kids won't conceive of a need to protect themselves from a rouge government. There is a cure for this but its very "messy".
