   Certainly a compelling case for the use of drones.

   That is how our govt does it in other countries. One day there will be an “emergency” that will facilitate their use here with weapons.

   I am sure the NRA will be on the frontlines of rebellion against a tyrannical government.

   I suppose those who do trust the government should arm themselves against those who are arming themselves against the government, because those militants are a threat to their homes. We’d be standing our ground, right? Wow, I can that ending well…….

   This isn’t the first time I’ve heard you folks on the left fantasizing about killing legal gun owners. You need to look in the mirror one of these days. NOBODY on our side of the argument ever jokes likes this, privately or publicly.

   @sclark55

   I was going to disagree, but then realized you are right. NOBODY on your side of the argument ever jokes about ‘cold dead hands, about "freedom wasn’t won with a registered gun" and how guns are needed “to keep the government honest.” People on your side seriously mean it when they talk of school shootings possibly being “the price we have to pay for freedom.” You and yours are not joking when you call for armed guards in schools and for more and more guns capable of firing more and more bullets. No, nobody on your side of the argument ever jokes.

    I listened to a harrowing story from a relative whose house was ransacked by a SWAT team when it was suspected to be the haven of an anti-governent family plotting to overthrow the government. Militia stuff. Of course, this was prompted when one of them had made the stupid mistake of getting into the company of other government-ranters who all then went on a ride with someone who wanted to sell bombs. Not really any takers, though a lot of talk. The bomb sellers turned out to be undercover agents. Baiting. The person in charge was reassigned to a desk.
    So who is right? Who is stupid? I’d say they all are. Stupid agents for trying to bait people and then ransacking their house, and the stupid family that riles up fears of the worst and talks about arming to the teeth in defiance of the eventual standoff. Their thinking brought them together with such stupid results. Just stupid fear-based thinking.

    Such people need to study US history and what happened to the times rebellion broke out here. Not just the big one, Civil War I but going back to 1786 and 1791 for examples.

    Empires need fear, and oversized armies. Republics need neither.
