Gun Control and government expansion
« on: January 20, 2013, 11:17:09 AM »
My post on FB this morning:
I was watching "10 things you didn't know..." about JFK this morning and they said something that started an avalanche of thought. JFK and Nixon were good friends, both former Navy, both wanted to be President and both thought that the New Deal went too far. Then it hit me-every expansion of government has been accompanied by restrictive Gun laws within a few years. The New Deal (1933-36) had the Nation Firearms Act of 1934 and The Great Society (1960s) had the Gun Control Act of 1968. So with ObamaCare, the attempt to control 1/6th of the economy, what else would they do but go after guns? Somewhere in the back of my mind I can hear a history teacher saying something about history repeating itself...


BTW I don't have any friends from DRTV on FB, WTH?  ;D

Pericles--"Freedom is only for those who have the guts to defend it".

The problem with society today is that not enough of us drink wine from our enemies skulls”.

It takes 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile, and 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars!!!

Es gibt keine Notwendigkeit zu befürchten, Underdog hier ist.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

Thanks, it wasn't a solicitation, really, just a realization   ;D

At the same time I would rather have fellow members of DRTV than some of the dolts I went to HS with.

An hour south on I-5.  Let me know when we get closer and I'll see if we can't put something together.  8)

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

NFA / New Deal
GCA 68 / Great Society
Current push / ObamaCare

The only one that doesn't seem to fit is the Clinton AWB  ?
