The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases. - Thomas Jefferson
@chanesteiner (Also, let's be clear: it's not just criminals & mentally disturbed individuals who kill with guns. They're the minority.)

@emlynaddison Guns are taken from people right before horrible atrocities like genocide are committed. Complete government control.
-
@chanesteiner Ours is "a government for, by, and of the people". If we are the government, why are we paranoid of it? Guns guarantee NOTHING -
@emlynaddison We used to be. We are not anymore. It's an illusion that we actually have a choice in the matter. Campaigns cost millions.
-
@chanesteiner This is irrelevant re paranoia and guns. If THE PEOPLE don't like it, they should stop complaining and RUN FOR OFFICE. -
@emlynaddison I'm sorry, but that's just silly. To run for office, you have to raise millions from corporations. Impossible for most.
-
@chanesteiner So because elections cost millions we should buy guns? -
@emlynaddison I'm responding to the "if you don't like it, run for office" silliness. If you want to ban guns, run for office. lol Good luck

@chanesteiner And there's the rub: "Try and take 'em away" they cry. It's an ensconced cultural hangover for man-children who like toys. - 4 more replies
