For the people.

I wish nothing more but for my liberal friends to develop good relationships with firearms. Learn to shoot, learn to know these weapons, become proud owners. Because unlike our conservative counterparts, who know and understand that to secure a freedom and way of life, you need to be willing to die for it, and defend it. And a gun has always been the most civil of reckoning tool. It can be used to persuade evil intentions to leave you alone, and it is a wonderful negotiating tool, when it comes to securing your freedoms and hard earned way of life. This country wasn't founded or secured with pacifist ideals, and the pursuit of freedom for many wasn't secured without many a hard fought battle between violently contentious ideals, and the new rights and freedoms that we are trying to secure in this country aren't going to be secured without a solid frontline of progressive patriots willing to fight and die to pursue and secure our hard earned rights and freedoms. We as America won our freedom from England by the gun. Slavery was defeated by the gun. So many eras of forcible expression fought with the gun, for the right to hold down new and achieved freedoms in this country. Same as in other countries whose people and ideals are at warring odds; The progressive vs. the antiquated. When the status quo tries to prevent at all costs the progress in mind and body of their people, the people must fight to break that old mold, to pursue, and secure new freedoms. And old mold is not broken without a forcible blow.

Chew on that.
