Obama and all you Liberals this is what the 2nd Amendment is really for

When the lights go out , and funny noise's start about the house a gun is your best friend. Are they inside your house because they are hungry or do they want your children to sale as slaves to foreign countries? I'll be ready

Excellent point

Spot on! It's scary how naive people are about this.

You never, ever hand over all of the power to anyone. Especially those who mean to rule you. And there is never, ever a time to be so complacent that you feel there is no longer a need for a measure of security to be taken by the individual people and states of this union. The amendment was and is one of the most important rights to ever be handed to the people. And we should never give up our right to defend ourselves.

Save the wows . . .

Humans haven't changed any in 200+ years. There are still people who crave power over others. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Saddam, Chavez, there's still people like that, which it was created to protect against.

Don't move to Texas then.... Grand Ma might just be packing...
