You Are A Domestic Terrorist, Not A ‘Gun Rights Advocate’ (Op-Ed)

[meow2u3]

You know how I know you’re a domestic terrorist and not a “gun rights” advocate? When you start sending poison in letters to elected officials because your teeny, tiny mind can’t grasp the concept that no one is coming to take your guns away, that’s how. So about a month ago, the same week the Boston Marathon was bombed, some jackass sent a letter to the president, a Republican Senator and a judge that contained ricin — a deadly poison. After initially arresting the wrong man, the FBI nabbed a Mississippi man in connection to the letters sent in April. Now this week three new ricin-tainted letters have been intercepted on their way to President Obama and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

America’s soft, sociopathic underbelly is starting to show.

So how does this relate to the Second Amendment argument currently raging in our country since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary? Well, the person who sent this new batch of letters is perhaps the best person to ask. In the letters to Bloomberg, which were sent to both to City Hall in New York City and to Bloomberg’s office in D.C. that he keeps for his PAC, Mayors Against Illegal Guns. The letters contained unambiguous threats to the president and the mayor, “You will have to kill me and my family before you get my guns. Anyone wants to come to my house will get shot in the face. The right to bear arms is my constitutional, God-given right and I will exercise that right till the day I die. What’s in this letter is nothing compared to what I’ve got planned for you.”

1. How long until one of those terrorists detonates a car-bomb in a crowd?

About one or two years ago, a joke occurred in an exchange between me and another DUer. We talked about the constitution.
He asked me, which version I'm referring to.
My answer was "King-James-version".

The right to bear arms is no "God-given right". The US-constitution was written by men.
That guy isn't only a domestic terrorist, he's also a christian extremist who has clearly not read either the Bible or the Constitution.

Today it's attempted murder of politicians for political and religious reasons.
How long until somebody detonates a car-bomb in a crowd?

4. Scratch A Gun Fetishist, Ma'am, Find A Criminal

The whole 'law-abiding gun owner' line is in the same class as 'jumbo shrimp': the demands of their fantasy lives as heroic slayers of 'thugs' and resistors to 'tyranny' require them to adopt an attitude of 'bending the rules' and 'defying authorities' in the pinch when the gun is in hand. So their actual attitude to the law is not 'I will obey the law' but rather 'I will decide which laws I will obey', and yet still their own conviction they are righteous and law-abiding people allows them to feel they are not criminally inclined when they harbor the intent to break laws at will, and even to believe that they are not criminals when they actually break laws.

6. So, how many "criminal" gun owners have you found in your campaign of stigmatization?

5. Ironically (or not)...

this person (and I think they've arrested somebody in Seattle related to this) will lose his guns after he's tried and convicted. (Unless the NRA decides to focus on the real problem in America which is that convicted felons are denied their 2nd Amendment rights while in prison!)
