I think you have me mistaken for someone else.
No lie. I don't recollect ever hearing you defend Obama. Or comment on him at all.

I think Colpy has you slotted as a "leftie," and therefore concludes without a scintilla of evidence that you're an Obamanaut.

Thinking in stereotypes sure saves wear and tear on the ol' grey matter.

Why leave it to just the government? More weapons means more trampled rights, more stolen property. Not the other way around. You know when two armed groups have a disagreement over rights and property, we call that war. Unfortunately, the cowboy movies never showed much collateral damage but the rest of us will be effected by your stupid macho fantasies.
We call it "Saturday night."

I would hardly call the American government functioning and if you think the ballot box is going to stop the US government from spying on and murdering its own citizens, you're dreaming. The only thing armed Americans are willing to defend are gun rights and apparently cattle. The great second amendment dream failed. Americans don't want freedom. They want guns and beef.
And hookers and blow.

There is an upside. Every now and then some "freedom" idiot decides to take up arms against his oppressors. Once he squeezes off a few, we can kill him and nobody complains much. Waco, Ruby Ridge, and so forth.

Just about what I figured....takes your kind of scum to point up as a positive the burning to death of children...

How many guns did they have??



And at Ruby Ridge, the shooting of a 14 year old boy in the back, and then a mother sniped while holding her baby. Oh, and nobody complained much, except for the civil law jury that awarded the Weavers 3.1 million dollars in a wrongful death suit. Read Gerry Spence's book on the subject, From Freedom to Slavery

Democracy is about dialog , diplomacy, dealings, (the honorable and good ones)what is fair for all, ideas, building bridges (both physical and figuratively). None of that was made by guns.
You are just feeding the propaganda. Democracy is not about fear.

But Jody, they fired on Federal agents. That places the blame squarely and solely on the Branch Davidians, just like the deaths of children in Gaza is the sole fault of Hamas.

That's your own, stated morality, and not even tongue-in-cheek like my comment was.

Nonsense. The freest societies in the world are countries like Honduras, Yemen, and Afghanistan, where EVERYBODY has a gun.

Actually, evidence suggests in the Waco situation , that Koresh was fired upon by the idiots of ATF the moment he opened the door.........that may, or may not be true, but they were at least incredibly incompetent and negligent.

I listened to the sheriff at Waco interviewed on the CBC shortly after the fire. He was in tears, and asked "Why did they not just ask me to go out there? I knew them. I could have knocked on the door and arrested him. I've DONE IT BEFORE" (from memory) He had arrested Koresh at a previous time for attempted murder, and seized weapons.........with no trouble. Koresh was found not guilty of the charges, and released with his guns.

In the Ruby Ridge situation, there is no debate. US Marshalls open fired on a 14 year old boy and his dog.

You want to try that BS again??

Gerry Spence From Freedom to Slavery. Read it. If it doesn't leave you outraged, nothing will......

Sorry, I don't find children burned to ash by government goons to be amusing.

Modern democracy is the result of the spread of firearms.

Democracy is ALL about fear....keeping the gov't afraid of the people at the ballot box, and if that option is removed, at the cartridge box.

Now, reddies and greenies.

This is something I usually do not get bent out of shape over. I use greenies liberally. I RARELY give out reddies, less than a dozen in all my time here. I prefer to throw garlands more than mud. I do not get insulted when I get reddies, as I quite often do.

But this needs to be said.

The above post was a reflection on the killing of children by gov't agents, and a list of those that died at their hands at Waco Texas.

It earned me, to my amazement, two reddies.

One from Mentalfloss, one from El Barto.

Progressives support the gov't murder of children, I guess........or at the very least disaprove of the peasants complaining about the negligence of idiot armed gov't agents.

Yeah, and I meant to add....tell it to George Orwell.

Or John Locke.

Or Thomas Jefferson.

Or William Blackstone.

Unless they're Muslim children.

Yep, that's why countries with lots of firearms are such perfect democracies, like Yemen, Afghanistan, and Honduras, while countries with low firearms ownership, like Japan, Britain, and Germany, are groaning under the heels of vicious tyrants.

Me, on the death of four Muslim children:

.........the death of children is an unthinkable tragedy. I can't imagine losing one of mine.

That's 23 dead kids.

The first rule of holes:

When you find yourself in one, quit digging.

In other words, you need to STFU to retain even a shred of credibility.

I have no credibility with you, Jody, and I want none. There was a time when I thought you might be brought to a decent standard with just a little inducement. Sadly, that time has clearly passed.

Considering the fact that you obviously think the mass murder of children by government agents is "a decent standard", you're damned right that I proudly don't meet it.

QED. You're so stuffed with self-righteousness that you can't reconise black humour, and so convinced of your utter rightness that you accused Corduroy, who's never had a word to say about Obama, of being an Obama cheerleader.

Enjoy your puffed-up perfection. Maybe it'll help you forget that during the decade or more that you had the chance to stand up for your principles, you didn't.

Unlike you Colpy always stays on his message and his position has remained constant in the years I have been visiting Canadian Content .

your moral and intellectual superior



TORONTO - Olivia Chow came out Monday pledging to support a handgun ban if she's elected mayor.

"There is no reason why anyone needs a handgun in a big city like ours," Chow said

One hand points the handgun at the murderous scumbag that just raped your wife, while the other hand calls the police. Don't make such a person have two hands on a rifle, with no police on its way the citizen may be forced to defend himself.

How does raping your wife make him murderous?

while the other hand calls the police. Don't make such a person have two hands on a rifle, with no police on its way the citizen may be forced to defend himself.
Anybody that can't handle a rifle or shotgun at short range one-handed shouldn't own guns.
