I think the one thing you guys just dont get is that we , as Americans, have the right to keep and bear arms. Yes thats a RIGHT. Why do we have this right? We, as Americans, also have the right to overthrow our govt if it isnt doing as we please. I know this will NEVER happen in my lifetime but if my kids kids need to do so I want them to have the rights that I have. You cant go up against the govt with knives. This is a very important right and we need to protect it at all costs. You may say "that will never happen" I hope you are right but if it does we are ready.[/quote:58be0]

^ Product of a paranoid society. Ever since the intial red scare after the russian bolshevik revolution, the U.S has just been a mass of paranoia....It does more damage than good worrying about the wrong things.
