I don't know about you but when I go vote I never say
honey, I am going to go "take up my arms"

I never say

Don't forget to go "take up your arms"



I don't encourage my newly 18 year old students to go register to "take up our arms"


IT just DOES not make sense and she knows it

1. Yeah, but do you lock and reload?
Those electronic voting devices require special handling. Everyone knows that.

5. Of course you don't
You're not an idiot like Sarah "Words and phrase don't mean anything" Palin.

6. How about when one's child is admonished by an authority figure? Should the child's parents
advise the child, "Ignore it -- just lock & reload."

11. It won't end well

12. I'm always armed when I vote
Of course I'm armed all of the time anyway, except in places where my knife is not permitted.
