Well, the controllers have dragged guns into GD Ferguson, MO threads...

...and there is vast confusion. One thread says that 2A is the only constitutional right left in that town (disapproving, I guess), another asks wryly where the NRA is in all this (again, disapproving, I guess). I pointed out that the liberalization of gun laws would make the NRA's presence singularly unnecessary. Christ, these posters are all over the place.

Caught between the metaphors of a panther and a house cat.

3. They bellowed saying the pro-2A militias are racist for not showing up to defend blacks.

Ergo all pro-2A types are racist. Then, when a thread appeared saying the militia was showing up to defend the rights of Americans they bellowed that this would only make matters worse.

It's the constant shifting of arguments that betrays just how unprincipled the grabbers really are.

Or, that (her perceived) hoarding of guns and ammo forces police departments to go military.

I consider her a friend so did not alert, I just posted a reply in disagreement.
