re: #52 Mattand

How about we fucking revisit the Second Amendment? It was written at a time when owning a gun meant the difference between your family eating or starving to death; and when there was a chance citizens could actually stand up to the government.

I hate to be a buzzkill, but you generally don’t need to go in heavy at the Shoprite to buy groceries these days. Plus, if we ever turn into a dictatorship, your private arsenal won’t mean shit.

It’s the Red Dawn fantasy. You know, the scrappy resistance fighters who will win against the tyrannical government through guerrilla warfare and sheer determination.

Nobody ever seems to point out that, depending upon how optimistic you are, all the kids died at the end of that movie.
