I would disarm everyone except for my "police force". I would then have that police force kill anyone who disagrees with my policies and "ideals". Any competition to my rule would be met with the assassination of all involved. The media would be under my direct control as would all religious houses.
Once I have everyones attention and my rule is unopposed, I could build a beautiful eutopian world with free cheesy poofs and magic beans for all. oh yea, if you're caught drinking one of those pisswater type American beers, you'll be labeled mentally unstable and turned into soylent green for some crime to be named later. |

In my youth, I went to Ireland and drank many a Guiness Stouts. One night I was standing at a bar in a pub, having just finished my 15th Guiness or so, and the barkeep handed me another. I took a look at that soupy heavy luke warm frothy motor oil that passes as beer, and suddenly realized that it sucked. I poured it in the urinal and got a Fosters. Even that was not too great, as they have apparently not discovered the merits of refridgeration over there.

Those who continue will be subject to my dungeon where the culprits will learn "perspective" as they are repeatedly "buggered", hit with pain sticks and will have one close friend or family member executed in front of them.

That person is so narrow minded that he can't see the trees in the forest. IMO, California is the best state in the union. Gorgeous plastic women, hundreds of miles of beaches, year around summer, and opportunities everywhere. Of course there are problems, but what state doesn't have problems? I can live without an AR-15 if it means living in California. It's not like I take out the gun every day to shoot cans or paper targets. |

Night life was ok, but i have had much more fun in florida. But that's just my opinion. I think you will find many of us here would fight for anyone's rights if it came down to it.

Okay, so it's just for a gun. Like PETA is for animals. And there are no other factors or issues?
Assuming you've perused this forum for awhile, you haven't noticed threads regarding rights and freedom, government tyranny, etc? If you did see such thread topics, did you not click them? ----- Would you accept the possibility that you may be drastically wrong? If so, would you be willing to take the effort to perhaps understand how people really feel and why they feel that way? |

The Founding Fathers of this country were considered the "ultra-radicals" of their day.
This country has been so dumbed down with respect to Civics and the Constitution that the FF are considered too radical TODAY. IIRC, a test was given, handing out copies of the Bill of Rights VERBATIM, and asking people to read and give opinion. Most repondants thought it was a too-radical document. Few, if any recognized it for what it was. Maybe radicalism isn't all bad sometimes. Think about it. |

As Supreme Ruler, I would not allow pee-pee whacking by baliffs. You have to whack your own pee-pee's in the privacy of your homes. And no kissing and making up. All fights concerning principles will be to the death and in a public arena. Of course if the prevailing viewpoint is in conflict with mine, you will be executed for treason. |

In THIS context, not some hypothetical burning building, but re an oppressive government or unlawful intrusion situation, how do you expect to "lay down your life" in any meaningful way? Without the means to inflict same on the attacker, it would be a futile final gesture.

Kinda similar to Celt laying his life down for a gun. I just think it sounds too ultra-radical. Well...I was going to go away quietly, but I'd better put in one more..... I didn't say I'd die for a gun. I said I'd die for your right to own one. Here are my core beliefs on the matter, then I'll shut up: One of the constants of human nature is that there will always be some who would control others. Sometimes they are more powerful, by virtue of numbers, or physical strength...and they get their way. In 6000 years of history this has always resulted in misery to one degree or another. The only, repeat, only thing that prevents them from having their way is the presence of armed men, and women, on the other side. Once you are unarmed, you are, at the end of the day, helpless...and dependant on the virtue of others for your life. Not all in power are virtuous. Yes, there are many steps between here and the end of the day...the courts, laws, on and on....but they have all proven failable. The only difference between a slave and a free man is the possession of arms. The only difference. Let me ask you this, John. If I walked into your house and said, "Let me tie you up" I would imagine your response would be, "What do you plan to do, that you want me tied up when you do it? I ask those who feel I should be disarmed, "Why? What do you plan to do that you couldn't do if I were armed?" I wouldn't really be dying for your right to own a gun. My father already did that for you. I'd be dying for your freedom, and that of your children. If you would do the same for me, thank you. If you wouldn't....it doesn't change anything. Celt out. |
