7. A private citizen should have ZERO bullets. ZERO. Reinterpretation of the 2nd ASAP!

Mar 2013

The government should have as many as needed to stop the rightwing extremists and conspiracy theorists who attempt to overthrow the government.

As Ben Franklin (who most likely was talking about the NRA said-
An ounce of protection against the NRA and their talking points, is worth a pound of cure.

Can't wait for the ONE singular vote to change in the SCOTUS, after which, all the same stale
boring NRA talking points shall be laid to rest as will the NRA as will bullets in the hands of private citizens.

Time to make nice is over.

ONE SINGULAR VOTE will change the entire ballgame and it's coming and nothing can stop it as it is as inevitable as the coming now or shortly of the legalization of gay marriage nationwide.
Attitudes change, and SCOTUS and the law changes too.

Sad thing is the scores, thousands, who will still die from private citizens and their fetish for guns and bullets.

But the end is near.

No more playing nice.

(And I figure it will be 2018 at the latest, 2014 or 2015 or 2016 or 2017 if we are lucky.

(unfortunately the family members of those who shall die by the insanity of guns in the streets will have to still suffer. It truly boggles the mind.

And more power to the DHS in fighting the terroristic blackmailing NRA and its blackmail of candidates and the public.

ONE
SINGULAR
SCOTUS
VOTE
difference
will
change
everything

when 4 to 5 becomes 5 to 4.
