What have we gotten ourselves into?

You have to be more positive.

I'll remind myself of that next time I got out to one of the Alaska villages where people still crap in buckets...

Just be positive they don't mix the water bucket and the crap bucket up.

I am. I'm absolutely positive that the ComSymps will turn this country to shite if we let them get away with it.

With the state of P.R. in elections these days and misinformation being what it is, you takes yer chances and makes yer choice. Or you don't. When candidates from both major parties don't put their party affiliation on their campaign placards, well that says a lot.

I wish they would leave the party off the ballot, too. I've voted for both of the big parties and a small party or two in the past, just because I try to weigh the options and vote my conscience. If there was less "I'm a democrat" and "I'm a republican" maybe the politicians would be more inclined to run on merit. That system is broke, too...heck we can't even realistically get a third party candidate on our ballot and aren't allowed write-in's.

i agree. Although, Ive never bought a gun with any thought of defending myself against my government.

Well there is a first time for everything?

 

[reddog1]

Well I hope you all are ready. I'm not, but hell, how ready can you be for complete and total chaos, death and destruction?

Yep - we only have Obama to fear...

In other places where an imperialist nation will invade your country, kill and overthrow your leaders (after putting them in place and arming them), occupy your nation, set up a government in their image and call it good? Oh yeah, and they'll have contractors rebuild, but again, only in their image.

Yeah, things aren't so bad here, because we're still making things bad in those other places. The truth seems to be (to me, at least) that people purchasing arms to protect themselves against the government will never use them, as they would be worthless. And if those people actually purchased arms thinking the government had already gone too far, then they are too cowardice to actually try and use those weapons. People actually do die for their rights in those "other places", but we haven't done anything like it in a while.

We have had soldiers in afghan land and Iraq fighting and dying for them to have freedom, ( yes, our version), but what other version is there?

It would just freeze, but since your out in the middle of no where just pee on the ground, what really sucks is if your the guy that's gotta pack the "stuff" in the bucket with you because the ground is so frozen you can't bury it...

Isn't that what the British were saying when their soldiers were dying in the US (replace freedom with "civilization")?

Now look at us, the ole Brits must be proud - Yeah, we're going to free the $#@! out of them whether they like it or not.
