An example of why I'm pro 2nd

[Boogie Woogie]

Fortunately for this woman, her situation ended with no injuries. This recent local news story serves to remind me why I value the 2nd amendment.

You just never know when some punk chooses your house at random...

What country is that in?

Im partly with diesel.

I'm 2A to defend my home not only from persons. But from my government/invading government..

America thinks terrorists are bad.. For what defending their home at all costs from people you don't want there... If it ever steps on our soil trust me they are nothing compaired to how I will defend my home from those not welcome..

I believe in my country but no my government.

What country is that in?

how soon we forget. Students started a protest in China protesting how the Government was alienating China from the rest of the world and they were also protesting the Governments treatment of political prisioners...among a whole bunch of other things... well the Government rolled tanks into the protest and a guy carrying his groceries stood in-front of the tanks stopping their advancement on the protesters... He also yelled into the tank something like, "WTF are you doing...stop this before you kill someone" That night they killed like 100 people

I am probably off a bit since it was a while ago.

Yup. That's why I hate commies. They're "fascist-light", but still manage to kill their own citizens.

Thanks for the lesson... You are correct -how soon we do forget.

I'm disappointed in myself for this one for not knowing. Fact is, I guess you can say I just recently matured in regards to such issues. I used to think liberal meant -to be free. Oh boy was I wrong...

My parents left that part of the world to escape a communist regime. I recall my grandmother's stories of her past which used to always start off with the phrase, (translated) "Before the communists came...". Prior to this, the government was a monarchy, but peaceful and humble. Civil war broke out -unfortunately, the communists won. During this time, this was know as the "Situation" in SE Asia on news networks here in the U.S.

Sad commentary to today's situation. This guy is willing to give up his life for a chance at freedom and liberty. We have people in our government who is willing to give it way for a price.

God helps us all.
