I have recently an heard argument from an older female American citizen that is for gun control. Her Argument was that guns don't need magazines that hold more than 10 rounds. When I explained to her that the manufacturer wasn't were you get these magazines, but from aftermarket distributors it was then a well there is no need for assault rifles... Which would take us into the ...well there is no need for candy or gum or porn or movies, etc. Then She went on to say that without governmental gun control that China would just come and take us over. And I thought to myself, Other countries have no interest in invading a country where there are 5 guns to each household. Much easier to invade those countries without guns, besides the fact that China already owns us. We are but a mere retail outlet store for them but that is for an entirely new post.
As I sat there thinking about the time and effort the Government and or media has put into detracting us with this old issue. The 2nd Amendment is still there to protect the rights of all citizens. Instead we the people should be focusing on a more important issue, Government Spending!
When I run out of money, I stop spending until I get more, not go tax more so I can spend more. Eventually there is no more to take. I am all for sharing when I have excess and my children aren't hungry. But when I haven't enough to feed my own family I sure as hell am not going to steal from my own household to share with my neighbor. Our current Government takes form its own and sends it abroad when it should be taking care of its own. Besides, when did public appointed figures become celebrities with no accountability for their actions?
