Reply #30: If you're what today's labor movement has to offer, no wonder we're losing [View All]

BTW, when was the last successful violent revolution? You never answered that. The European Union is the fastest growing political entity in the history of mankind without a shot being fired. Sorry, you're way on the wrong side of history. If you long for fighting for poor people, become a cop or a social worker. God knows they need help. The days of shooting guns for labor rights are so far in the past as dueling. Neither worked well and are effectively dead. Where's your much ballyhooed 2nd amend now when we have a government that uses the other 9 amendments to wipe their asses? Where's the RBKA movement in this time of tribulation? They're having banquets for fascist evildoers Tom DeLay and Dick Cheney. They're NRAstroturfing America from cyberspace to classrooms to churches to shopping malls, not taking on the Bush regime in any way.

Making people carry a gun at all times as if in war is a far more likely slavery than whatever victim fantasies you have. I have a friend who left Venezuela because he didn't want to carry a pistol everywhere, he said it was oppressive. Maybe there's more to that story but most people I know don't have guns because they're a moral burden. If I don't trust myself, my family or my neighbors with a gun, why would I trust you with a gun?
