I remember the post, here in the archives, showing the actual "peaceful" protests of Brits, wanting their gun rights BACK......Probably too late for them without another type of something,....what could it be,.....?????


REVOLUTION!!!!!!

Ironic,....isn't it...

"Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again."
Ronald Wilson Reagan, 40th President of the United States

They are getting what they deserve for their complacency.
Good men did nothing and now evil is triumphant.
I have a message for them from Edmund Burke.

Re: Send a Gun to Defend a British home. - Uh, that would be a gigantic enormous HUGE Negative!!!!

I may have more pistols than hands, but I still don't have enough. I'm thinking of a rig like the guys wore in that really crappy Jesse James movie some years back, American Outlaw. Something that just seems to ooze handguns on your body. Gotta get to work.

Tom's right.Told ya so. Now let's get to work defending OUR rights for a change.

That's authentic. Because they were using cap and ball revolvers.
Eye witnesses say that when they were riding with the irregulars Jesse and Frank like most others, carried half a dozen loaded pistols and a dozen or more loaded cylinders as well.

As a Christian and an American, I'll send the Brits a pistol. I feel its my duty to my British and Anglican brothers, even if others are less willing to give to those in need. >:( However, its because of living in America that I can spare a gun or two.
FQ13 who will praise the Lord, and literally pass the ammunition if this thing becomes real. Want a .38 S@W or 12 gauge Maverick mate? I won't even call it Lend Lease. Just take it as long as you shoot the arseholes who are burning your cities then turn it on those who have stolen your rights and I'll call it good. ;D

I'm well aware of that Tom. I just think it would be funny as hell, (and potentially politically helpful) if we acted like it was contemporary. The NRA raising a "Guns for Brits" drive anyone? It ought to embarrass the bastards anyway (saving your sorry asses for the third time, really, why?). ;D

You would be arrested for "Aiding terrorism".
Just like if you sent them via NorAid to defend Irish homes.

Is that what that jar marked NorAid was about in all those expat bars I drank at in DC?  Did I send money to the IRA?  ??? :o ;) Begosh and Begorrah! Whatever would my family think of me? I thought it was to help widows and orphans! :o Why would I, whose great uncle traded Smith and Wessons for Whiskey back in the twenties, possibly contemplate getting involved in shipping guns to my brothers if it pissed off the Crown? ;D

PS here's one from the Sullivan side of the family Boyo. 8)

A real pity they didn't look that organized on Easter of 1916.
Perhaps Pearce and the Boyo's at Dublin GPO would have had a chance.

Hey, I was at least going to follow in the family footsteps and send them a real gun. Great Uncle Burt dealt in S@W .38s and that's what I've got on offer. ;)
