Okay, I'm really sick of hearing "WAAAH SECOND AMENDMENT" with regard to these bozos who have been showing up at town hall meetings with guns.

Second amendment doesn't have a fucking goddamned thing to do with it. They are attempting to violate the First amendment rights of people.

These guys are NO DIFFERENT from the assholes in Afghanistan that threaten to kill women if they vote. Would it be okay if they stood outside polling place when you went to vote, maybe looked over your shoulder?

They aren't standing up to a corrupt government, they're trying to threaten THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES who are trying to participate in their government. They're attempting to capitalize on the right-wing spree killings of the past few months to scare people away from listening to rational debate. In fact, rational debate is the last thing they want.

Did we see the left running around with guns trying to override the legal process when Bush was appointed by the court, or did you see us put faith in the system and work harder to organize and get rid of the asshole by getting people's eyes open to the bullshit that was going on.

Hey guys, you lost! You lost bad because guess what, the system still works! We the people said: "We're sick of this shit." We didn't throw temper tantrums like a three year old and run around making the implied threat that we might physically harm you for not agreeing with us. You guys even had hundreds of huge multinational corporations on your side, but we beat you even in your rigged contest.

Now stop your fucking whining and quit trying to kick over the chess board. Try acting like a grown-up. If you don't like how things are being handled, how about presenting some intelligent arguments instead of screaming as loud as you can while plugging your ears and stamping your feet or trying to bully people.

Or hey, I remember the slogan you guys used, "If you don't like it, leave it." You could go to the virtual utopia for your kind that Boss Bush created over in Afghanistan. Your infantile behavior would fit in perfectly with the corrupt political system left in the wake of the mindset you support.

Now me on the other hand? I don't need a gun to beat you and I'm not afraid of you. I'm not thrilled with the government we have right now either but I'll work within the rules to bring people to my view. If your ideas were any good, do you really think you'd have to intimidate people to make them agree with you?

No, sorry. It was 'bare arms'. They are constitutionally allowed to wear sleeveless shirts and really I think more people should do so.

Punk is patriotic.
