I equate the assault weapon to a sports car. Does anyone need one, probably not, but they are a lot of fun.

I just REALLY like blowing holes in things. I've ever only turned a weapon on a person once, and that was because he broke into my house then ran like a bitch when he saw the super shorty. The public should be happy that people like me can't get ahold of explosives. I'd be like see that tree, fuck that tee, blow it up! I'll make due with my guns. FUN FACT! If you shoot a tree enough, it will fall over.

MAJ (Join to see) - It's a good story. A few months after we moved into our home my wife started complaining that all of my automotive equipment and tools was cluttering up the garage and she couldn't park her car in there, a valid complaint. Well we had bought the 20 acres we live on from a farmer who wasn't using it, and about half of it is wooded. So I wanted to put my new garage way back there so the noise wouldn't disturb the people in the house. We cut down all but one of the trees where the garage was going with a chainsaw. And my drunk friend asked if we could shoot down the last (don't worry, I didn't let the drunk one use the chainsaw). I aid sure, and the next day after he sobered up we pulled all our guns out and took a shot at taking that tree down. We used them all, but we found that an AR-15 was the best at taking little chunks out of the tree. It took us 4 hours, but we finally managed to make the tree fall over just using guns! Then I just dug out all the stumps. FUN FACT, the trees we cut down were milled to make the 3 car garage with bonus room and area for lawn equipment so nothing was wasted, and it's tall enough to have a car lift installed when I eventually get around to buying one.

Everyone with two or three working brain cells "gets" what's really going on here. The last couple of generations were weened on the notion that if you got into college (at any cost or debt), you were "guaranteed" a middle-class income, a house, two cars, the picket fence, and a comfy relationship to boot. When they found out that economic ups and downs result in lay-offs, over-manning for the highest paying positions, and found themselves working part-time, living at home with thousands of dollars of debt...they readily gobbled up the rhetoric blaming everyone from Wall Street to Main Street. That fed the narrative on "privilege" and "guilt" that's been pushed by politicians seeking the votes of the poor, the working poor and the dispossessed.
Now, these same folks are thinking like true communists...not just "progressives". Bear in mind, it wasn't the peasants in the fields, but the factory workers, students and lower middle classes who instigated the Russian Revolution...the "salt of the earth" types generally supported the existing regime.
You can't have a "democratic socialist" state in the U.S. (let alone a communist one) while a large number of the population who disagrees is capable of being "militarized"...you need 'em un-armed, monitored, scared and compliant. It helps if you first convince them they're "bigoted", "violent" Neanderthals in need of self-reform. When I saw that video of the guy cutting up his own black rifle...that's the image in question.
What makes all of this even more disconcerting is that "they" probably realize they lack sufficient numbers and power to compel us by force...which may or may not be why they're so eager to bring thousands of people from the second and third world here with as few "checks and balances" as possible. They presume (probably correctly) that many of these people are already "conditioned" to accept higher forms of government control...and know their votes may tip the scales in legislatures.
If I'm right..."their" timeline isn't a long one, because they want this for themselves, rather than generations down the line. Perhaps this is why "normal" processes of change in our country-say, an election-sends them into panic when it doesn't go their way. It's anyone guess how far any such "movement" is willing to go if "legal" or "non-violent" means fail...only time will tell.

The gun-grabbers think they have an easy "first step" in banning the so-called "assault weapons". Their plan and tactics are obvious. They have even stated clearly in their own words the deceit they will use to hoodwink the Public, and use the Public's ignorance of guns to advance their agenda.
WHAT THEY SAY
From the Violence Policy Center (VPC) website:
"The weapons' menacing looks, coupled with the public's confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons [sic] —anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun— can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons. In addition, few people can envision a practical use for these weapons.”
WHAT THEY MEAN
The American public is generally ignorant about guns, so we can lie to them very effectively by equating “ugly” rifles like the semi-auto AR-15 as “the same thing as the 'machine gun' Army M-16”, after all they look alike, don't they?
That is enough “proof” for these stupid people.
The “confusion” of the public about guns is not to be eliminated by teaching them the difference between an AR-15 (semi-auto ONLY) and M-16 (selective – semi or FULL-auto).
We gain nothing by telling the truth. That would ruin our plans to advance our goals for more useless “gun control”. We must cultivate this public ignorance about guns, and exploit this ignorance as much as we can, to fool the public into thinking the way we want them to think.
We can stress the point that many states do not allow these guns for hunting deer (they are considered to lack the power to kill big game humanely), which is what most urban citizens think of as the only “good purpose” for guns. We will ignore the fact that the Armalite Rifle 15 (AR-15) and the Army M-16 both fire a "varmint" type cartridge, civilian developed for hunting woodchucks, prairie dogs, crows and various other small “pests” before it was adapted by the Military.
Of course we will not mention any other “lawful uses” other than hunting deer, such as "varmint hunting", or target shooting . We will just keep repeating, over and over ----
“NOBODY NEEDS A MACHINE GUN TO HUNT DEER”.

When Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn went into exile, he landed in my state - Vermont. Here's a quote from 'The Gulag Archipelago': “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"
Those who believe the answer to society's ills lies in banning 'things' would do well to recall Solzhenitsyn's words.

CDR Dan Cunningham - Solzhenitsyn described an approach similar to the tactics employed by Michael Collins and "the 12 Apostles". The result -- the Irish Free State, after 700 years of fruitless conventional warfare.
