Republicans will be the ones to confiscate your guns.

In the midst of a gun grabbing thread at DI I came across this one...

8. lol

that explains why the UK, Australia, Japan, etc, are all flooded with guns these days.

When the government comes for your guns, I guarantee it will be a Republican leading the charge.

19. Your gun rights are only as secure as your alliance with the politicians

And that alliance is a one way allegiance.

The second you and your guns become an actual threat to their corporate sponsors, rather than remaining a convenient tool to manipulate and divide America, you will find out exactly what the 2nd amendment is worth to them.

It ain't gonna be pretty.

21. LOL! So you cannot name a Republican who will take guns away.

Now it is corporations...


Please answer me this:
How are corporations threatened by the 2nd amendment?

25. Every single one of them. Theres not a one who will stand with you on that day

Right now, corporations are not threatened by the 2a. Nor is the government. Thats what makes the whole gun love argument so rediculous. Your guns are not a threat to anyone in the grander scheme of the powers that be. They are no threat to anyone except fellow citizens who you have been taught to hate.

But if they continue to have their way, America will soon be a very poor nation. And that will effect a great many gun owners. Some of whom may actually have the desperation to set aside their prejudices and see who is actually at fault and then to go after them. And thats when guns could be a threat to the powerful.

And that is when your elected republicans will turn on you in a heart beat. They dont give a flying **** about the 2A. They are happy to use an easy issue to try and divide Americans, but that is not the same as caring about your issue.

26. Fantasyland.

poor people cannot buy corporate products. Corps flourish best with a healthy, consuming middle class.

Fact of life 101:
The only people who EVER talk about disarming the public are always Democrats.

27. You have correctly identified where many gun lovers reside.

A) theres no reason to assume that corps need/want that consuming class to be in the USA
b) theres no reason to assume that corps have the will and ability to focus on their future wellbeing over the needs of making a few extra bucks next quarter.

Fact of life 102: talking ain't doing. and when the government comes for your guns, it will be the people you foolishly elected who lead the charge

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

So what does this pin head propose, we allow ourselves to be disarmed?

I can't help but think if we ever reach a point where the corporations can dispense with our rights while the government watches approvingly/impotently from the distance that would be as good a reason as any for people to take to the hills.

In this fantasyland where the country goes the way of corporate rule as is being described, and corps then decide an armed population is a threat to their rule, and the need to take up arms to maintain our freedom is needed, the first people who need to be shot dead are the OneLoudVoice types, and then the way will be clear to take care of the corporate types.

The Rs who lack the courage to stand up to Obama in more than words have the courage to confiscate guns? :rotf:

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

After all the GOPe have done since winning in 2014, I do not find its post conspiracy theory.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The difference is that the Dems make no bones about that being exactly what they want to do, versus what a faction of socially-Liberal fiscal conservative overlords in the GOP might want to do if they didn't have to keep the base on board to get anywhere at all...and then screaming that the GOP is the real threat.
