They Just Grabbed My Neighbor's guns
""He was a law abiding citizen who had kids and a family. But the cops came in and took all his guns.""
How come we never hear stories like this? Because it has never happened.
So why do all the gun lovers keep saying the government is going to grab their guns? Seems they are deluded and stupid.
http://sync.democraticunderground.com/10022617307Here's a clue DUmmy, just because you say it hasn't ever happened, and even it hadn't ever, that would not mean that it couldn't.
No one has ever broken in and robbed my house, so can I claim that robberies are just a myth?
I have read several stories where law abiding people have had their guns taken because of some bullshit reason, like the guy who's son was talking about a freaking BB gun.

3. I find it best to ask one simple question before engaging in conversation with a GOPer:
"Who attacked us on September 11th?"
If they get that wrong I'm done. Otherwise, I will patiently and methodically tear their lame arguments to shreds. Case in point: co-worker says he has the right to have an assault rifle because he needs to protect himself when the US Army comes to kill him. I told him if the US Army wanted him dead he would never know what hit him. One second he'd be there, the next he's not.
Fish in barrel.
If a moonbat ever asks me that question I will smile and say George W Bush and Dick Cheney.

7. Plant the lie...
Reap the benefits!!!
That's what capitalism is all about.
As usual you have it backwards, your side lies constantly and when we speak the truth, you accuse us of lying.

8. They did it to me.
With no legal reason to do so, my firearms were confiscated by the local police dept.
They got sued so quickly and such a stink was made about it they quickly apologized and returned them to me.
I still sued the city, the police department, and every officer that was part of that theft.
I won.

36. I was going through a divorce at the time, my then-wife thought that calling the police on me
was a valid tactic to build support for her position going into proceedings.
For any reason, no reason, made-up reasons, they police were called to my residence thirty-five times by her. Not once was I arrested, not once was I cited for anything, not once did they even really do anything but tell me that I had to leave my own residence because "the woman usually gets the house in deals like this anyways."
I was told by my attorneys to not leave the residence or my children for any reason, no matter what.
I wasn't about to.
She opened my gun safe by taking the keys from me while I was sleeping, and called the police the next day to come get them.
No restraining order was issued, nothing was adjudicated whatsoever, they just came to my house when I was at work and not only took my property, but also firearms that belonged to other people, not owned by me, that I kept for them in my safe.
They took the 1863 Colt's musket that hung over my fireplace, it belonged to my father but was given to me to display, when I saw it missing the next day I checked the gun safe, saw the door left open, and knew what she had done.
Now, this is after a previous court order was issued keeping either of us from disposing of any property in any way until after the divorce was finalized, or ordered to by the court.
Fairly standard order in a contested divorce case.
The PD chief refused to acknowledge what they had even done, refused to give me an inventory of what they had confiscated, refused to do anything without a court order.
Everyone that was involved in losing property without due process filed a police report for theft, and informed their insurance companies.
I got a court order, all right.
So did the others individuals involved.
So did the insurance companies.
The PD still stalled returning everything until the court sent a county bailiff along with a Sheriff's deputy to the local police department with a summons and served them with it.
There was one pistol one of the police officers wanted, and wanted badly. It was held back for him because the PD said I could not prove ownership, although I produced the original bill of sale (which I have for every firearm I own, along with copies kept elsewhere), the original box it came in, and pictures and serial numbers photographically recorded of each item for insurance purposes.
Even when finally handing it over to me, the PD chief asked me if I wanted to sell it, the shithead.
The judge was not very happy with his previous orders to return everything being ignored by the PD.
He was *not* happy at all.
The upshot was, without any valid reason whatsoever the police department had taken sides during an ongoing civil legal matter, involved themselves with no reason to, and ended up getting into a disastrous situation of their own making.
Soon after this happened, the court served my ex with a order to vacate the premises, to leave immediately.
After ever thing was said and done, sole custody of my three children was given to me, as was the house, everything in it, and all the vehicles except one.

14. What I find funny is Republicans grab their guns in fear of black home invaders,...

....but black people are overwhelmingly the ones who want to get rid of the guns.
Point that out to a Republican and they will say, "Of course!!! So after the guns are gone they can break into our homes and we can't stop them!!!"
Naturally they have to play the race card, look DUmmies it has nothing to do with race, there are plenty of white people who act like they are sons of 0bama, we don't discriminate we will proudly show our firearms to anyone of any color who intends to bring harm on us.

19. Because they're paranoid losers
who live their entire lives in fear. It's the only explanation.
I have a smoke detector and fire extinguisher too, does that mean I am paranoid about fires?
No DUmmy it's called being prepared, another example is the spare tire that is in your trunk.

61. So why are cities like Chicago fighting so desperately to keep their bans?
perhaps a national preemptive law is needed. Don't give local government the option. Just a thought.
Because they are stupid, they pass laws that make things worse then when it is shown to have failed they think that making them even tighter will work.
