Yeah,MUCH better to give up without a fight,and the blame what happens on the people who actually voted in an effort to halt the loss of our freedoms,right?
Seems to me what you "Principled voters" (roflmao!) want most of all is to duck responsibility so you can claim it wasn't your fault when our system collapses. You are "conscientious objectors" in the war to retain and regain our freedoms. Now,being a BIG fan of personal freedoms,I don't personally give a damn if you vote or not. That does NOT mean I will sit by quietly and not point out your hypocrisy as our system is destroyed and you sit back and smugly claim "It wasn't MY fault. I had several hissy-fits,but it didn't work!"
The person that stands by and does nothing while seeing a tragedy develop and happen HAS to share guilt with the people that purposely set the tragedy in motion.
@sneakypete We aren't standing by, we just aren't joining up to contribute to the problem. Now, Halt the loss of my freedom when?
NOW I can get 10 years and a 10K fine for POSSESSING a damned gun stock, purchased legally. Not even a functioning firearm, not an integral part of the action, not an auto sear, nothing to change the mechanicals of a semi automatic rifle, but the effing STOCK?
(I don't have one, BTW, spent my money on other things.)
Yeah I'm all for halting the loss of my freedoms, but don't piss on my head and tell me it's raining Bubble Up. These things happened under Republican Administrations.
@Maj. Bill Martin Now, what was that bullshite about preserving my freedom? Of kicking the can down the road buying time to "defuse the bomb" (maybe someone will figure out how!), while megatons more trouble is stacked on top of it?
If this 'bomb' is going to blow up sooner or later, let's get this SOB over with while I can still hope to put up a fight, while we haven't had so much nibbled away from us by our "protectors" that we can. Before those of us who still give a shit die off of old age (yes, Virginia, the old basketball tactic of running out the clock is being played on an entire generation who better remembers what it was like to be free). Because the way this crap is going, we won't have jack, and the Republic will be crushed under the totalitarian jackboots of the Muslims, the Left, or even some from the Right, (Globalists all, just with different tailors) to the tune not of battle cries, but a sniveling whimper of some snowflake looking for their safe space. Quit playing along with the demise of this country.
It was a Republican who made sure only the Government would have access to new select-fire arms, and even the ersatz of a stock that helps people operate a semi auto more efficiently has been forbidden by the same crowd.
Only fools cheer that.
The real question ignored in all that "Winning" is whether the NFA of 1934 should exist at all, along with a slew of other laws infringing the Right, but the can has been kicked so far down the road already no one can see that.
Keep in mind the real enemies of this country don't give a flying fig about any of the laws the rest of us are constrained by, and already are at a significant advantage.
Left foot, Right foot, one side cheers what the other could never get through, and the net result is that we're still shuffling down the road to totalitarianism. Even Obama's BATF didn't ban a frigging bump stock.
The frogs are cooking just fine, but if someone turns up the heat too much, they'll jump out of the pot. Shut it down or crank it up. Anything else is just slow death to the Republic, our Liberty, our Rights, and to us all.
