Don't Tread On Me!... Has nothing to do with dying for country.
You're losing me again...
Exchange of opinion is not treading on anyone, and my opinion that you will be the first one taken out if/when the evil opposing force comes to "take our guns" is just that. My opinion, easily justified. You're a sitting duck...
Just having fun pretending in any case, like so many gun enthusiasts like to do about this notion of being "freedom fighters" and/or our last line of defense.
We all judge others, just like we do these comments, and respond or don't accordingly. I certainly have no problem openly admitting this...
I wonder what's "going on between the ears" when I have trouble understanding what someone else is thinking or doing, like what makes someone think writing so much about themselves is reading of interest to others.
Might be a few ways to judge whether someone's hobby becomes an obsession, and of course we all judge differently for all variety of reasons. Perhaps one way to note an obsession is when someone goes on for so long with so much detail apparently under the impression that everyone else is interested in all of it at such length and/or detail.
But don't get me wrong. I'm a big believer in "live and let live," and I support whatever you want to do with your time and life as long as it doesn't cross the line of affecting others adversely. Again, "whatever floats your boat" as they say. Have at it! As long as you don't cross that line...

My individual rights do not fall upon anyone else to determine for me.
How about you?

You talk in simple absolutes that are difficult for me to follow. Hard for me to understand all you are always going on about or why. Maybe a specific or two would help, about the source of your heartburn, beyond all this repetition about how you want to do whatever you like, but to answer your question in general terms...
I know my rights as well as the laws that apply to me that have been determined by others. Then too there is what I think I can do or should be able to do regardless what anyone else thinks, just like the rest of us.
From there on, where and how we manage to live in our society peacefully, comfortably and happily and/or otherwise, is mostly up to us, how we choose to live and ability to get along with others. Not so much a function of being a "coward" or all the rest you tend to go on about in my opinion, but again..., we've all got our unique ways of thinking about our lives and what's going on around us, for all variety of reasons very different from one person to the next.
Ultimately, "to each his own" far as I'm concerned. "Live and let live," as long as you don't cross the line of affecting others adversely.

Liberty and rights are simple.
You just want to make life hard.
What I want now is to sign off, and that's what I'm going to do, because I want to enjoy my life now, thankful my life is not nearly as hard as for so many poor people on this planet...
And the "cowards" of which you are speaking would be killing those of us who are unarmed? Nice.
