Remember, for the gun-humpers it's a matter of life and death.

If they lose any of their imaginary "rights to own as many guns as I want!", they'll die of starvation. Why?

They're too scared to leave the house without a gun.



> these guys are too well organized

They're the opposite of Liberals. They love taking orders, and following them.

The gun nuts are the most insane. These are not the religious types or the low tax Libertarians in the party, rather these are the militia types, racists, survivalists, nationalists.

I used to be a right winger and I used to be a member of the NRA and consorted with those people. Glad I didn't get in too deep, but they're fucking sick.

Don't give up. Keep posting the truth. Tear their arguments to shreds.

I remember watching a Rachel Maddow episode a while back where she mentioned that gun issues are almost "ungooglable", simply because there is so much mis-information and propaganda all over the internet that just about any search about guns will lead to a blog by some survivalist nutjob.

is tying all the the anti-gun talk to President Obama's hidden "agenda" to get rid of ALL the guns. He seems to have missed that fact that 20 sweet little children were slaughtered. How can people be so uncaring?

Wait, his IS a right-wing nut. Case closed.

We keep it open so that people who identify with the cause can join it.
