Wonder what they would protest if this visited their ass.....
Just to put their cheesy ass protest in perspective, to them asking the government to "protect" them from assault weapons when not too far down the road that same government will send them to see the big ignition.... and not do Jack shit to protect them then. Such hypocrisy...

It really is creepy. I know this is just leftist propaganda, but the last time a regime actually handed real power to children was in Cambodia under Pol Pot. Part of "Year Zero" philosophy was to put the children in charge of the communal farms. This had a lot to do with the creation of the Killing Fields. With no wisdom whatsoever to govern their impulses the children became mass murderers in no time at all.
Whenever leadership says they're listening to children and governing based off their wants and desires nothing good will come of it, nothing. It may not reach Pol Pot or Lord of the Flies levels, but the result is going to be somewhere on that scale.

There is also the 3rd option:
Don't fight it out with the traitorous foot soldiers if you don't have to, find and bring to justice those that send them, by any means necessary.
You'll note I never said how I was going to fight.
We have thousands of people in this country who can hit a man sized target at 800m shooting off the hood of a truck with a 15 mph crosswind.
The assault weapons they're so concerned with are a secondary weapons system.
This fits here too... what the children might expect next....
Using their own propaganda sources...
33,000 gun deaths in 2017...
209,000 rapes in 2017.....

Guns will be just one of their worries, so many other more creative ideas for when they least expect it.
Hi, I'm Oprah.I'm the spokesperson for Weight Watchers but can't control my weight.
I tell you how to run your marriage but I can't commit to marriage. I tell you how to raise your kids but I don’t have any. I am very spiritual, but don’t go to any church or identify as Christian. Even though I knew about Weinstein and the casting couch, I was silent, but I support the Me too movement. I am racist to the core, but blacks can’t really be racist, so that doesn’t count. I’m black and female, so I check all the boxes. I praised Denmark for their Socialism, though I am a billionaire due to Capitalism, the economic system that allowed a dirt poor child from Mississippi to rise to world renowned fame and wealth. The first time I openly endorsed a presidential candidate it was a black one, Obama. Before a black candidate, I was not political. Vote for me, and I will give you transformational change, the kind you got from Obama.
I normally don't condone this sort of stuff, but for some reason I want to buy this guy a beer.

Most likely the same as it is in most European and other weak sheeple countries..... You don't have one... and if you hurt somebody that was trying to rape, rob, kill you, the police will charge you for assaulting them. Apparently they want to make sure you understand you are properly little sheep for the slaughterhouse. Some days you just can't blame the wolves all that much for taking advantage.
i actually asked someone about this...
i said, "if someone was trying to kill you, what would you do?"
they said, "well call the cops"
i said, "thats great, if you happen to have a cell phone.....but the cops wont arrive until 10 minutes later, if youre lucky"
they then couldnt answer the question.....
i then said, " if you had a gun avaliable to you....you wouldnt use it to protect yourself"
they said, "well thats stupid, i wouldnt own a gun!"
i said, "well sure, but what if one just happened to appear in front of you, you wouldnt use it?"
they said, "nope, i would just let them kill me"
........i was fine with that answer........
i just find it funny that these dumbasses keep claiming we need to "save lives".........why?........if they obviously dont consider their own lives valuable enough to save.....why should i have to go out of my way to save it then?
Ive had pretty much that same conversation and it usually goes the same way. Ask theim what they'd do if Bubba, Shackamonium, and El Fareez kick the door in at 3Am. It usually ends with them walking away pissed off saying 'Well guns are dangeroud."
We have the constitution to prevent exactly such mob rule deciding if we can have or not have our rights.
How about we suggest voting if Muslims are allowed to be in this country by popular vote.... the left would never let it happen neither would the courts.
Since they would never accept it the other way around, no reason we should give up our protections.
ummmm.....no.
the 2A is not up for a vote......ever.
if they want guns, they have to get congress to amend the constitution as prescribed in article 5.
unless they plan on doing it the legal way, they can suck dick, and im going to own my guns as is my right.
and until then, they need to shut the fuck up
I don't care if they do amend the constitution, I'm not giving up a damn thing. My family won't be loaded into boxcars.
They cannot amend the fucking bill of rights. They were never meant to be amended. They shouldn’t have even called them amendments and should have just called them rights. If they amend the 2nd, then the constitution might as well be voided. There is no discussion, vote, compromise, meet in the middle, because these animals won’t stop coming after you until they get what they want. The scary thing is that the ones making all the noise are simply useful idiots in that they have no idea why they are pushing this agenda.
I'm sitting here half in tears at the monstrous frustration of this thing. I'll defend anyone's right to disagree with me until these same people start insisting that I give up my tools to protect their right to be in disagreement with me. That's one scorpion that I'm not ferrying across the river.

No shit, Hillary trolled trump saying she hopes he can accept defeat and not do some recount nonsense, then she lost, and wanted a recount, and 2 years later they're still crying about this shit.
The only way these leftist idiots will ever shut the fuck up is when the communist government they built starves them all to death.
Actually, it was that troll Jill Stein who ordered the recount. I was more referring to everything else that has gone on. The Russia probe, constant cries for impeachment for no reason, media assaults, this insignificant testimony of some slut, etc all trying to undo a duly elected president
The more I see what the Dem and Repubs are doing to my country, my Constitution, My Rights, the more convinced I am that I will not die a natural peaceful death in a hospital. It's looking like I will be in a fight to the death.
The last peaceful chance that Trump was hopefully to be is not working out. Get ready for war for your liberty gents.

Hill dawg did end up supporting Stein's efforts. It was a typical milquetoast approach, but it happened.
https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo...pports-recount-efforts-in-battleground-states
'Wanted' might have been a tad unsubtantiated, but supported for sure.
I would not be surprised for a moment to hear, later on, that, in a fit of drunken fury, Mrs. Clinton called Jill Stein - Transcript below:
'Hi, H. I'm so sor-'
"YOU FUCKING BITCH YOU GET YOUR ASS ON THE PHONE WITH WHATEVER MOTHERFUCKERS YOU NEED TO TO START A FUCKING RECOUNT RIGHT NOW! FUCK SHIT PISS - COCKSUCKERS - *background screaming* JOHN FUCK YOU YOU SAID YOU HAD THIS LINED UP - JILL, FUCKING DO IT NOW"
'O-ok H'
"FUCK YOU YOU DID THIS TO ME JILL! YOU - DID - THIS - TO - ME!"
*click*
funny Stein asked of a recount.....seeing as stein didnt have a chance in hell at winning.
i wonder how much steins net worth grew after asking for a recount?
Unfortunately Jerry, what you are suggesting would actually be a good scenario. Technology is so advanced these days, that what I am fearing is that any "dissidents" will be tuned out and forced into an exile like morlocks. This is why these corporations teaming up against the NRA and supporting these little fucks is so dangerous.
I believe you can add Illinois and New York to that list. New York had some of the toughest gun legislation in the country and now there is a 3 part bill being voted on. Guess what part 3 is? Assault weapon ban.... that shit won’t be standed for upstate when the confiscation starts. I really thing a new age revolution is on the horizon.
Probably wasn't too far from this. I will tell you that the reason she didn't deliver a concession speech in the middle of the night is because she was sedated. A friend of mine was in the room and she was having an absolute nervous breakdown like a crazy woman in a psych unit. "I'm the president of the united states!!!" In case any of you are gonna attack me for having a friend in the room, he is on the swat team and was assigned to that duty.
They had just run out of appropriate Party dachas along the lakefront in Vermontistan. She had to settle, you know?
I've sworn an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. That said, I have a lot to loose.
I don't think it will go that far.
I think Rollin’ Coal is hilarious. @rednecknation.com

Have you ever / would you consider:
- Running for a public position
- Cultivating qualified members for public positions
- Sit on a board or a committee that vets candidates in order to fund and organize
- Educate yourself on both a candidate and their positions and stump for them
- Put up signs and secure permission from landowners of conspicuous locations
- Donate time - door to door
- Donate money
- Help write or shape policy or legislation
- Personally lobby at your city / county / state / DC with your representatives and other voting members
End of the day everyone needs to own up to the fact that because we don't, and our fathers didn't, and their fathers didn't....... we're here today. Those Commy assholes? Those are the folks that showed up and expanded the shit out of Gov.
Here is the history of NY in the last 30 years:
Cannot handle, never mind shoot a pistol in the state of NY without having a pistol permit - not sure when this started but I learned about it around 86
AWB of 1994 nationwide
George Pataki, a Republican mind you, signs into law a permanent version of the AWB for NY around 2000
COBIS database created in 2001 - a complete waste of time and money
AWB expires in 2004, but doesn't matter for NY because of Pataki
Yearly introduction of microstamping that never passes the state house or senate
After years of relative dormancy, that raging psychopathic maniac cuomo single handedly signs the SAFE act after Sandy Hook, which completely outlaws magazines over 10 rds (no more grandfather), outlaws any new sales of "assault weapons", even though the ones being sold complied with the AWB of '94, mandatory registration of any outstanding "assault weapons", mandatory physician reporting of anyone deemed a danger to themselves or others to the SAFE act registry which effectively automatically bars them from purchasing a gun for 5 years I think.
So in NY, you really cannot have anything anymore, and they are still looking to pass laws. Anyone who registered an AR or anything similar, I feel bad for.
it's too late, the two parties will wall you off and kill you ala the tea party. The get involved method was crushed by the weaponized agents of the state, the armed and dangerous wing of the Democrat and Republican Parties, we call them FBI, IRS, NSA, Mayberry PD etc etc. There is soon to be only one option available and that final over reach is in sight of these despots.

Dear YouTube,
YouTube’s latest gun policy demonstrates that Alphabet has chosen to align itself with those working to erode freedom and deny individuals of their rights.
The right to keep and bear arms is inalienable to human beings. It is derived from human nature itself. Institutional recognition of the right to life and all other inalienable rights derived therefrom, is essential for peaceful life on earth. The right to keep and bear arms safeguards humanity from tyrannical government and institutionally sanctioned mass murder, of which history has too many examples.
Many gun owners know this to be true. They value personal freedom above all else, regarding it as essential as the air they breathe. They are deeply offended by the systematic erosion of freedom, perpetrated by government officials elected by people devoid of the philosophical foundation essential for moral decision making.
The denial of any right can only be carried out coercively, that is by force or by the threat of force. When official representatives of a government or an institution attempt to deny an individual of a basic right and are met with resistance, invariably an instrument of force, be it a gun, knife, or club is produced by those officials and used to coerce the individual into submission.
There is no such right as the right to work towards the denial of any other right. Moreover, advocacy of coercion is an attack on personal freedom and thus it is itself and act of coercion.
Therefore, by siding with those who work to deny others of the inalienable right to keep and bear arms, YouTube is implicitly supporting the most frightening kind of coercive behavior, that which is perpetrated institutionally.
Because rights can only be violated by force, only by force can they be preserved.
I have the answer for all the dim witted and undereducated people who ask, “Why do you need a gun?” Killing is the answer. All rational people need a gun so that they can come together and kill those who would attempt to forcefully deny them of their individual rights, any of them. Make no mistake about it. This is one of the most important building blocks of peaceful civilization. The United States government maintains a nuclear arsenal for the same reason, to kill those who would forcefully deny the citizen of the United States the right to live their lives and pursue their happiness. The citizens of this wonderful country delegate their right of self-defense to the government but our government must be checked by the people from whom its power is derived. The people are the first branch of government. The Executive, the Legislative, and the Judicial are the second, third, and forth. Without a well-armed citizenry, a government of rational people, by rational people, and for rational people cannot exist.
Unfortunately, the current state of the government renders it untrustworthy, at least for rational people. It is a well-known fact that elected officials across all levels of government can be purchased and therefore laws can be purchased, usually to gain advantageous positions within a marketplace that would otherwise be free and self-correcting. Our government is also largely a product of mob-rule, branded as democracy. The mob is an ignorant bunch who know nothing of building a political framework on a moral foundation philosophically embedded in metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics. Crafting a political framework based on the whimsical faith of the mob will ultimately lead to nothing but human suffering, as it so often has throughout history. Conflicts rooted in faith either remain unresolved or are resolved by force. No other alternative is possible.
In the wake of a school shooting, the mob will devour tales of gun control fed to them by knowingly divisive people while absolutely nothing is said about indicting public education, public and therefore pathetic at best, for stifling the development of millions of minds every day. Is it not true the public schools are complicit in shaping the minds of children? Why then is the emergence of a homicidal monster from a public school surprising to anyone? Public schools are an obsolete relic preserved by politicians at all levels who have been bought by teacher’s unions across the country. The survival of these unions depend on funds forcefully and unjustly taken by government from millions of people and diverted into a failing system, the persistence of which mathematically depends on mediocre performance at best. Free market examples of education prove beyond doubt that high-quality education can be had for surprisingly low cost while earning top educators millions. So, I ask you, dim-witted mobster, why then would you entrust the development of the most precious thing in the universe, the mind of a human child, to people who have proven themselves to be corrupt and unscrupulous?
Scientists and engineers are familiar with the concept of positive feedback which is the enhancement or amplification of an effect by its own influence on the process that gives rise to it. That is a good definition and I got it from the dictionary.
Positive feedback can be either desirable or undesirable. An example of desirable positive feedback is compounding interest returning on an investment, the dividends from which are reinvested thus increasing the rate of return. An example of undesirable positive feedback is an infection of flesh-eating bacteria. As the bacteria eats your flesh, they gain the nutrients needed to multiply and thus consume your flesh at an ever-increasing rate until you are dead.
Stupid people fucking is another example of undesirable positive feedback that is frighteningly similar to the flesh-eating bacteria example. Here’s how it goes. Fucking is easy. Even the dumbest people can do it. When they do, they sometimes produce another person, whom we will call Ernie for this example, and they attempt to keep him alive long enough to transfer what life-sustaining responsibility they can to a public school run by idiots. Little Ernie doesn’t stand a chance because both his parents and teachers are morons. Nevertheless, he grows up on a diet of nicotine and government subsidized food stuff unfit for human consumption. At no point did anyone tell poor Ernie about the importance of philosophy for establishing his ethical code of conduct. Ernie doesn’t know what philosophy is, let alone that it is responsible for every human achievement that has assuaged human suffering throughout the ages. He knows nothing of the monumental epistemological achievements that are logic and the scientific method. So Ernie lives life, surviving day to day, doing what little he can to keep food in his belly and nicotine in what’s left of his brain. He never gains on life to realize personal fulfillment and the free time to pursue his ambitions, that is if he knew enough to have ambitions. The hard life finally catches up to Ernie and his health deteriorates but not before he spawns a couple of Ernie juniors of his own because, remember, fucking is easy, even for dummies like Ernie. His need for survival leads him to a hospital which will treat his chronic illness into perpetuity at the expense of those who can actually create wealth. Even worse, Ernie learns how to vote from a Democrat who tells Ernie that health care at the expense of others is his right. Ernie doesn’t have the philosophical tools to know that such a notion is preposterous, but he does know that if he votes for the Democrat, others will pay the price for his bad behavior so that he may live for a few more years to smoke cigarettes and eat more government subsidized crap. And since the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree, the little Ernie juniors that he spawned eventually grow up to be just like their worthless dad. Pretty soon, we’re living in a country full of people just like Ernie, a flesh-eating bacteria, voting for the government cultivation of dependency, because his survival now depends on it. The government’s dependency engines, those being public education, subsidized food stuff (not to be confused with actual food) and publicly financed health care will not only be preserved, but expanded in an effort to sustain more bacteria. Politicians will garner power from the voting bacteria, until the bacteria has eaten all available flesh, that being the output confiscated by government at the point of a gun from those who are capable of producing it by living in accordance with a philosophical code fit for humans. Rational people need guns so that they can resist this totalitarian onslaught.
Our government, some of which is fantastic, suffers from systemic corruption that has led to human suffering as it can only do. Our government is abdicating its responsibility to carry out its most solemn duty, which is defending and securing individual rights. It has created a caustic environment in which wonderful little minds are tragically and systemically transformed into Ernie-like monsters. As a matter of policy, leftist groups advocate for the confiscation of both wealth and the means for securing it. They advocate that the power to dispose of over one-half of the wealth created by the productive citizens of this county is best left to the 535 members of Congress rather than to those who created it. They advocate that no one should possess a lethal means of defending themselves or their livelihood and that such defense is best left to some far-away authority. Such irrational and absurd notions are both frightening and threatening. What would you expect any rational person to do in the face of that threat? They will arm themselves as millions have. And if the trend towards totalitarianism continues, they will have no choice but to organize themselves and take action that will ultimately turn violent when rational arguments fall on deaf ears.
I may not be the last person to resign myself to an armed civil conflict within the United States but I am certainly far from the first. I would prefer to live under a political framework conducive to peaceful coexistence among people who can live freely to pursue their dreams and who are respectful of the rights of all others to do the same, thus offering no obstruction. The long-term preservation of such a framework is only possible with a government, derived from a powerful and independent citizenry, and committed to the defense and security of individual rights. Such power can only be delegated by and derived from people who possess it, people who are armed.
So YouTube, on behalf of myself and the millions of gun owners from around the world, many of whom I have met, I ask you to reconsider your stance on the issue of guns and continue to allow the publication of gun related videos enjoyed by so many. Guns are important. They are more than just toys enjoyed by millions. The Founding Fathers of the United States knew as much. With revolution fresh on their minds they made a point of recognizing and protecting the right to keep and bear arms by its early inclusion into the US Constitution. If the right to keep and bear arms is forcefully denied, then no other right can be safe.
