If you were ever taught English, you would understand that is not a prerequisite for bearing arms.
Can't be part of a well trained militia if you have no weapons to train with.
None of my guns have ever committed violence. I, however, am in a position to prevent horrific violence. You "work together" with the murderer and see if that works out better.
Just because YOU are afraid of guns, doesn't mean the rest of us can't defend ourselves.
"Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." - Mao
But the Chinese Communist Party doesn't let anyone else have power. And they certainly don't allow dissent. Perhaps that is why they don't allow anyone to have a gun....
Disarming the population is always the first step to tyranny. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, and other dictators knew this well.
If any tyrannical authoritarian force ever comes after you the only thing your guns will be good for, ultimately, is shooting your family and then yourself. They'll cut off your water, your electricity, your gas, your food, your ability to communicate via phone or radio, and then they'll just surround you and wait you out. If they decide to get really serious they'll just use enhanced radiation devices (neutron bombs) on you, and after about 2 months they'll be able to go in and clean up the bodies without even needing to use protective gear. You won't be able to use guns to protect yourselves from people who are that serious about taking you down -- you'll need brainpower, stamina, and ingenuity. Better get started.
You think I'll be alone in the fight against tyranny?
Everybody has their own definition of tyranny. An awful lot of people think the word refers to you and and other people who think like you, because you'd all be willing to use armed force to make others submit to your will and think the way you think. As far as being alone goes, the methods I mentioned would work against a whole city, not just a single household.
I'm a live & let live kind of guy. Do what you want as long as I don't have to pay for it or be harmed by it.
My definition of tyranny is when a government controls its citizens. Forced vaccinations of an experimental drug is approaching that threshold. That's why the courts struck it down.
If you believe your 'betters' in DC know how to run your life better than you do, you don't deserve the freedom that you enjoy. Go ahead and nuke me if you must, but I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees.
My definition of tyranny is when ANY bozo with a gun tells me I have to do what he says or die. Now, you want the last word? You can have it. I'm outta here.
You don't understand tyranny. True tyranny is controlling others who have the guns, so your hands stay clean. What you are describing is terror tactics, usually reserved for those who have no power and are trying to create it, and historically they will use ANY weapon available or build their own. Please study before making stupidity stronger.
Political power comes from convincing other people to let you do whatever you want and then being able to blame them for your decisions on their behalf.
Wow. So you approve of tyrannical violence, but not self security. Because what you said is the stupidest thing I've read since Frump got silenced.
