The chance is there. :eek:
But I do know that the people around me will ....lets just say "die fighting for that right".

With that said, remember to do your research on ALL CANIDATES.
 
If it was up to BHO the bears would have arms, free beer for everyone not employed and no firearms for the citizens.
 
The more I drink and the more I think about this....It is real with what has happened to other countries. :grumpy:
Do you run or fight.
 
They are already armed. They tear logs apart and kill big game with nothing but claws and teeth. In contests with armed hikers it's about even odds. It's a good thing that, in general, they have a better disposition than many people. :) Regards, ss.
 
If we do it will mean a revolution. :( I say that hoping it won't come to that.


"The tree of Liberty needs to be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

Thomas Jefferson


I don't like this quote but I take it as true.....sad as it is.

The founders of our great county had foresight in writing the Second Amendment to our Constitution. The legal debate is over about individual citizens owning firearms, as of the Supreme Court's correct decision a couple of weeks ago. The Second Amendment was put in place to keep a repressive government in check.

Every country whose people has "given in" has done so with their loss of freedom. History has proven this.
 
No, I do not believe, at least in my lifetime, that we will lose our Second Ammendment rights. In ways it may be altered, but I can't see us losing the RIGHT to bear arms. There is NO candidate that will try to abolish all guns - handguns, assault-rifles, etcetera, yes. IMO, the Constitution of the United States is the best document ever written - by a 33 year old Thomas Jefferson (with some help).
 
For all those fooled by Skunks post.. as I was.....


He said will we lose our right to.....Arm.......Bears.....get it?


You know....guns for bears.....

That was my great grandfather, Sam Hargrove, who ranched the borderlands of south Texas in the late 1800's, early 1900's. The picture was taken on the banks of the Rio Grande, on the river road to Brownsville, in 1898. He had stopped for lunch and met a fellow who was also stopped to rest. Turned out the man was a photographer who agreed to take his picture, so he unpacked his suit from his bedroll and posed with his horse, Sergeant. The gear in the display case was his, except for the pistol which is a replacement identical to the one he carried--1st Gen Colt mfg in 1901. Scott's remark about fondling Colts brought it to mind.

Obligatory INFIusion...

I would be really pleasantly surprised if the US manages to hold on to it's second amendment rights another 50 years. When you look at all the hard hits to the constitution
from the patriot act and all the insane pressure from places like the EU and worries over terrorism along with a real lack of parents passing down rifle skills it looks pretty bad.
Still the last supreme court ruling was a good sign.

One of my biggest worries is for a long time big business and the people who really run this world by controlling the economy and media thought that they needed a certain amount of political freedom in order to do business and make money. However China has proved that you can have a horrible police state and still have a strong economy.


Since i am already way off the topic of armed bears I might as well throw in some good news about the US economy which seems like it is in the toilet right now.
While the mortgage crisis and devaluation of the dollar looks bad now it also means it is going to be a heck of a lot more profitable to manufacture in the US and export especially to places like China and the EU and for the first time in a long while US firms will have an advantage rather than a disadvantage when it comes to competing with foreign companies.

It could also mean Busse knives might get a bit cheaper although the price of good steel like INFI is still very high.

It also means that if you have all your money in knives instead of the stock market you got really lucky. I am sure there is no one like that here though
