A view from an opinion piece in Pravda. As I said in another post we're not the only ones fighting for RKBA. And I think other countries are watching how our struggle unfolds.

An interesting side note is the authors reference to US support of the Reds during the Russian Civil war. Must read history of the era.

Interesting piece. It's a history lesson we should all heed.

In May of 2010, at the NRA Convention in Charlotte, we visited my Father and met his neighbor Robert The Russian Redneck. He left his home country, came to America, and opened a real estate business.
He saw our Pro 2nd Amend. NRA shirts and immediately remarked: "Never let them take your guns, they took the guns in my country and "f-ed" everything up". (best in heavy Russian accent uncensored).
Amazing that in "disarmed" countries,....the modern sophisticated ones (sarcasm), there is a portion of the population that regrets it.
From the article: We're already considered a Socialist Country.
These days, there are few few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bare arms and use deadly force to defend one's self and possessions.
Do not be fooled by a belief that progressives, leftists hate guns. Oh, no, they do not. What they hate is guns in the hands of those who are not marching in lock step of their ideology. They hate guns in the hands of those who think for themselves and do not obey without question. They hate guns in those whom they have slated for a barrel to the back of the ear.

Perfect understanding!
