On the Second Amendment


First, yes, I'm aware that "Chris" is black/African American if you prefer; however, the public posturing by wingnuttia (which in my mind fairly screams "small weenie") is for the most part a militia or at least militia wanna be thing, which tends towards honky redneck...

And something tells me that if non-honky rednecks decided that they too wished to demonstrate their fealty to the Second Amendment, the reaction would be not unlike that in California when the Black Panther Party so expressed themselves: Ronald Reagan--yes, THAT Ronald Reagan--signed the Mulford Act which prohibited open carrying of firearms in California.

Because the plain truth is that an armed society is NOT a polite society (e.g. Iraq.) An armed society is comprised of either paranoid individuals who thing the world is out to get them...or one where life is nasty, brutish, and short.
