No, you would not be mad. Why would you?


You would be happy.... So happy, you would ask them to take more and more, because you can afford to loose it all.



Our government takes your rights daily, with every law they pass.
They then sell those rights back to you for a fee, or you don't get them.

Only those that can afford your rights can have them back!


What kind of scam is this, to undermine the Bill of Rights?

Examples? I can't think of rights that are taken from you and could be bought back by you...

He's done this about 3 times already today, loading up the boards with threads about something only he knows about or is unwilling to share.

The Democratically elected government as setup by the founding fathers passes laws as per the constitution and those that disagree have a court system to revue their ideas.

Good job man. You've got thousands and thousands of troops who put their lives on the line for the flag every day and you sit at home disrespecting it. I guess it's much easier to complain when you're sitting at home on your couch than in a foreign country being brave and fighting for something.

Support our troops buddy. That's not just a catch phrase.

I protected this nation, serving the Coast Guard freezing my ass off on the Bering Sea. I didn't fight someone elses preemptive war.

After my dad and his time in Korea & Vietnam, ordered to kill people for no good reason, he let me know where to be, to really defend this nation.

You have been lied to.

The last 100 years or...
Most recent?

NDAA,


Let's just take a gander at Obamacare, for pages and pages of restricting our rights and giving them back for a fee.

There's no lying. What did you study in college should I ask? Are you still getting a backcheck from the federal government? Are you the recipient of any government programs? Do you like the internet? Russia no invading? The ability to walk safely down a well lit road at night? Notice how there's no bank or power company monopoly? You don't find starving children next to the side of the road?

Should you have an issue with a law, there's a court there, largely right leaning, to strike it down for you. I take it that tin foil hat is a little tight today.

Again, you're disrespecting the men and women who wear the uniform. You might have been somewhere cold, but were you ever in combat? What's that? No? Then you really shouldn't be making the assertion. Plenty of people freeze their butts off in Alaska.

That's not the same as someone trying to shoot you or blow you up with an IED.

Someone who hasn't served in combat and makes the comparison of a job they have as being as bad is a coward who disrespects the men and women of the military.

Support our troops.

My firearms license costs 100.00 and is may issue here in Mass. which means they can turn down any applicant for any reason without any explanation or basis for rejecting the application by stating they feel that the applicant is not suitable.

I believe that would be considered trolling
