"infringed" upon everywhere else. They vote for GOPeePee congresspeople who support crap like NDAA and offshore torture prisons, waterboarding, the militarization of local police forces.

They support an agenda of funneling money to the MIC for pointless wars and funding the arms race for the very drones etc that will put the cold and dead in "from my cold dead hands".

They're spending $1200 on an AR-15 to protect their $500 TV from a burglar. Meanwhile the megabank forecloses their house for no reason, the insurance companies deny their legitimate claims, etc etc.

They're so busy preparing for some imaginary doomsday where a "globalist elite" comes after them that they're not seeing it already happening. They're expecting "blue helmets" and "black helicopters", but the real global elite wear business suits and travel in black sedans.

Fema camps... no, after "right to work" and other anti-worker provisions go into effect your job may more or less resemble a Chinese work camp.

Its not an "illuminati, hell bent on world domination and one-world government", its just already wealthy corporations and individuals trying to get even richer, by eliminating labor costs or sending jobs to where labor is cheap. Its banks and other institutions trying to squeeze every last nickel out of their customers because its "good business sense". Its big agribusiness trying to maximize profit and minimize risk on their investments.

This has always been the way of the world, tug of war between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. But a lot of the "proles" for lack of a better term, haven't caught on that their guns pose about as much threat to "government tyranny" as slugs pose to a kid with a salt shaker. And of course, theres the NRA and Fox News feeding them "Gawd, Gunz, and Gayz" to keep them from seeing the real picture.

Guns won't save you from "tyranny" because tyranny is always been here. You voted for it, and to a marginally lesser extent, so did I. You support it by investing in it and buying your groceries from it. You live it, eat it, shit it, and breathe it. Its anything but a conspiracy.

3. This sums it up. And the MSM feeds them what they want to hear.

8. And thats a big part of it. The media now is more about confirming people's biases than informing

them. When I went to Journalism school, we were taught not to spread information known to be false. Fox ran with birtherism and other BS, then when birtherism was completely debunked they ran with "some people believe" as the headline. Some people believe the Earth is flat. Its not "news" when people are wrong.

Similarly with gun control, Fox reports only the most extreme positions concerning gun control... the people saying "repeal the 2nd amendment and take all the guns".

You said it Erose!

Well played, sir or ma'am, well played.

Gun fetishists (not gun owners, per se) vote for tyranny and then buy guns to defend against the tyranny they put in office. Not smart.
