One Thing About A Police State, You

Imagine How A Teddy Kennedy Or A Bill Clinton Would Take The News That One Woman In Ten, Say, Has The Power To Resist His Blandishments By Deadly Force, And You'll Get A Perfect Idea Of How A Charles Schumer Or A George Bush Feels About Armed Taxpayers.

Repealing Drug Laws Would Remove The Risks Involved With Producing And Distributing Drugs, Bringing 'street Prices' Crashing Down (it's Estimated That A 'spoon' Of Heroin Would Cost About A Quarter In The Free Market), Thereby Eradicating Any Incentive That Criminals Might Have To Compete With Legitimate Businesses, And Greatly Reducing If Not Eliminating Altogether Any Economic Reason To 'push' Drugs On Children.

Never Forget, Even For An Instant, That The One And Only Reason Anybody Has For Taking Your Gun Away Is To Make You Weaker Than He Is, So He Can Do Something To You That You Wouldn't Allow Him To Do If You Were Equipped To Prevent It.

Human Rights Are An Aspect Of Natural Law, A Consequence Of The Way The Universe Works, As Solid And As Real As Photons Or The Concept Of Pi.

For The Second Amendment To Do Its Job, The Other Side Must Become Much Better Informed. I Watched An Action-adventure Program Last Night That Asserted That The Famous Ak-47 - The Original Peoples' Rifle (and Authority's Greatest Mistake) - Is Rare In This Country, And That The Only Ones Here Were Originally Smuggled In From The Middle East, Or Possibly From South America. The Idiots Who Wrote This Mess Seemed Unaware That After Legal Imports - Mostly From China - Were Illegally Cut Off By Executive Order, They Began To Be Manufactured Here.
