Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

Stupidity is. Another example of how we need to keep these people away from positions of power.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Look, there are essentially two avenues of approach when dealing with those who extort control over you. One is to appeal to their logic that it won't be beneficial for them to continue to oppress you. The second is that you will resort to violence if the first avenue fails to free you of your yoke and the armament of the individual to the highest degree possible puts "teeth" into an otherwise empty threat.

The learned Constitutional Scholars at the DUmp think that every Right in the BOR except the Second is for the people?

The DUchebags should read what people like Jefferson, Adams, and Washington had to say about the RIGHT to bear arms.  After all that is where the DUmbasses get their separation of state and church.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

From the Declaration, as pointed out to me by 2004 Constitution Party Candidate Michael Peroutka one night in an Annapolis bar (my emphasis added):
Quote
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.

If we have these rights, and having the right to keep and bear arms for this exact purpose qualifies, then think why the elitists DON'T want us to have them...

I was on a flight to Albuquerque last year, and a retired SF guy sat next to me for part of the flight. He made the mention that if AlGore had won in 2000, there were people ready to march on DC. He also felt we were long overdue for a coup. I think if the the DUmmies are duped into electing BHO, I think this scenario WILL play out. Maybe not on 20 January 2009, but probably soon thereafter. Especially if taxes go up.

Plus, this guy still has his license to kill. I'm not going to question that kind of credential.  :bow:

It figures that  the ones making the biggest noise about taking guns away are the first to march in  goosestepping to the very things the murderous thugs of the past and present did first to keep power. Take the guns away from the people that posed the  biggest threat to thier dictatorships. How do any of these people manage to wake up and not kill themselves walking across the street everyday?

but what exactly does the DC law do (did?) and why is was it important that this law be struck down?
It seems to me this kinda falls under states rights.
The states have certain rights to restrict dangerous things

The states can NOT conflict with Constitutional law you dingbat! It's the same thing that keeps your equal rights legislation that you supposedly think democrats passed from being overridden by state law.  :hammer: Farking idjits!

Had an aggressive Freeper confront me today while driving in my car. 

Here I was at a stoplight in my station wagon with my pachababy in her car seat and a man next to my car smiles real nice and asks me to roll down my window. I oblige, thinking he has a quick question for me (directions etc) and when I roll it down he says "Hey, from all your bumper stickers on your car, you must be a Marin County Socialist who is unpatriotic and is trying to destroy our country and jeopardize our troops!"

He said this with a glaring smile on his face as he basically dared a response. I was stunned. My car, a BMW station wagon with the bumper stickers saying "Mainstreet Moms Oppose Bush -theMMOB" and "Out of Iraq" along with an American Flag and I'm labeled a Socialist, who is unpatriotic and jeopardizing our troops? WTF?

I responded politely by saying that actually, I grew up in a Republican family, am not a socialist but rather a patriotic American who loves my country, believes in the Constitution and upholding it and that I want to protect our troops and that I'm actually a registered Independent, not a registered Socialist. He insteaded responded to me by cursing me and telling me that if our country went to hell it would be me and all the damn liberals in this country who don't believe in Jesus and God.

I told him that he needed help and that if he harrassed me anymore I'd call the liberal police. He then drove away....

I was shaking....I have never had a confrontation like that before. I'd never think of driving up to a big Ford Extinction with big "W" stickers on it (hey, I even occassionally see Melanie Morgan, a neighbor here locally who drives her SUV with her big patriotic flag stickers and God Bless W all over it) and shout out anything to them, even if I feel sick when I see them and especially Melanie Morgan.

Anyone else had any weird aggressive confrontations like this lately? What's even more shocking is this happening here in Marin of all places, a very liberal part of California. Is this a sign of what that "Uniter Mr. Bush" is doing to this country?

Very sad indeed...but I'm not going to let this stop me from expressing my opinion publicly or removing my stickers on my car. But it is frightening to me that someone like that would be aggressive and angry like that to a mom with her baby and label me and call me names. What's next? People getting violent on their fellow neighbors and citizens?
