Firearms Case In DC Full Of Lessons

WELCOME TO THE UNITED SOCIALIST STATES OF AMERICA!

In return for free health care, housing, food and education for anybody who refuses to support themselves, you must support the benificent elitists who provide all this largess at the expense of those who choose to work for a living. You must also agree not to try to protect yourself from those ungrateful and greedy individuals who believe, along with your new Socialist government, that whatever you have can be theirs by simply taking it… along with your life occasionally, but then, life is like an omelet isn’t it?

The Old, outdated and obsolete Constitution provided that you have the right to protect yourself, your family and your home, but since your new and beloved Socialist Government is now caring for you from cradle to grave, you no longer need to do that, do you? God (who is, by the way, illegal!) forbid, you may want to do something foolish... like protect yourself. You don’t need guns to protect you, to hunt with, or to shoot for fun at a range. The police protect you, (sometimes, when they find out you need protecting, and if they can get there in time, or you are important enough); nobody needs to hunt for food, because food is provided by the government; and if you want to shoot for fun, why – go to a bowling alley, or play video games.

This is sarcastic, but all too true in reality. When did we become a country where you cannot protect yourself, even in a place as dangerous as Washington DC, without being charged as a criminal?

If you've ever been there, Washington DC is like a sewer, it smells like one and all the sludge collects on the top, in big houses.

Way to go, Cpl Cort! Semper Fi!
