>>I think the 2nd amendment reasoning of "in case of tyranny, take up arms and overthrow the government" doesn't even pass the giggle test. You'll simply be hopelessly outgunned by any sort of state agency.
Race has nothing to do with it. It never has and it never will. Places that are predominately middle class, be they asian, hispanic, white or black, have lower crime rates than places that are poor.
Why would the degree of melanin in one's skin affect how they behave?
So if I go to the range and blow away paper targets all day, can I sue Glock for their gun not doing its job properly since nobody died?
What about the.223-cal round that NATO uses. It's designed to wound, not kill, so it takes a wounded soldier and one or two of his buddies out of the fight instead of one dead one. Did NATO drop the ball?
Actually, very few Palestinians were forced from their homes because very few of them actually owned the land or the house they lived in. If my landlord sells the apartment complex I live in and the new owners decide to rip it down, TFB for me!
When absentee landlords in Turkey give up their property in Palestine, TFB for everyone involved!
Those that did own the land/ house should get them back immediately, squatters be damned.
How does CA propose to expect states that don't have sales taxes to do this?
Or NY, for that matter? I mean, if NH isn't set up to collect sales taxes from anybody, where is the infrastructure necessary to do it for other states with no standing?
I mean, sales and income taxes suck, glad I don't have to pay any to my state.
And before I get flamed, please note that the high property taxes in NH aren't at the state level as much as they're at the local level. That is, each town is different, and neighboring towns may have vastly different tax rates even within the same county.
It's fairly tough to be "near genocidal" when people who are ethnically identical to Palestinians have their own country, a little place called Jordan.
Football is the most popular sport in the world, yes, but popularity != best. For example, GWB was the most popular guy in 2004 and I wouldn'd say we've had four banner years... would you?

I thought the whole point was the infernal nuisance factor?
And I'd wager (but still just guessing) that most soldiers, Marines, sailors and airmen would object to shooting at American citizens.
India did most certainly gain their independence from guns. German and Italian ones, just not Indian or British ones.
Those are ordnance, not arms... 'cause they explode.

Like in Iraq?

What about the
You hit the nail on the head. It's a "Nordic concept." That is, ethnically homogeneous, socio-economically equal group of people.
The U.S. is not such a place. Some states are... and those are the places that have crime rates just like Europe.
Then we should all vote to get those laws changed, huh?
Isn't that how democracy works?

Move to NH, and worry about neither... prolly 'cause of the armed populace.
Where are you living that the UK is much safer?
You know that the different states over here have much different crime rates, right?
So the Zionist Regime isn't a bunch of Jewish guys?
Who is it? Mormons?
Actually, the WMDs did exist because WE HAVE THE RECEIPTS. There's an infamous picture of Rummy smiling and shaking hands with Saddam in '86.
Seriously. Next thing you know some knucklehead will suggest an income tax, too. If I want to pay those, I'll move to another state!

Easy, we split hairs :-)
Nukes, after all, are ordnance, not arms. Bullets and gun powder don't explode. Nukes, arty shells, mortars and large cannon shells do.
Though, when you think about it, muskets *WERE* SOTA military arms back in the day...
It's not free, there is just no out-of-pocket charge.
:-)
The money is coming from somewhere

Bah, they were all Catholic :-)
They weren't exactly following the teachings of Christ, either, were they?

So if you have no idea, why are you complaining about something in which you've confessed you know very little about?
Actually, it's the Jewish Testament that features the Fire and Brimestone section. In the Christian Testament, God tried a different approach.
The world nailed that guy to a cross, but his message still works... BE NICE TO PEOPLE.
That's it. Not too tough. He said, "no church" but got ignored and looked what happened.
Like Gandhi said, "Christianity is a great idea."
But lambs are not PREDATORS. Wolves... are. It's a one-way analogy.
If a biological imperative is pointless...
Anyone else see an issue with that?
Not all of us want democracy. Some of us want freedom.
After all, democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.
Freedom is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
