Russians learned the hard way when Communists (aka “progressives”) took away their guns.
Via Pravda:
These days, there are few few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bare arms and use deadly force to defend one’s self and possessions. [...]
The excuse that people will start shooting each other is also plain and silly. So it is our politicians saying that our society is full of incapable adolescents who can never be trusted? Then, please explain how we can trust them or the police, who themselves grew up and came from the same culture?
No it is about power and a total power over the people. There is a lot of desire to bad mouth the Tsar, particularly by the Communists, who claim he was a tyrant, and yet under him we were armed and under the progressives disarmed. Do not be fooled by a belief that progressives, leftists hate guns. Oh, no, they do not. What they hate is guns in the hands of those who are not marching in lock step of their ideology. They hate guns in the hands of those who think for themselves and do not obey without question. They hate guns in those whom they have slated for a barrel to the back of the ear.
So, do not fall for the false promises and do not extinguish the light that is left to allow humanity a measure of self respect.
Pravda has been publishing some remarkable perspectives about America. One event prompted an article that capitalism just rolled over and died without putting up a fight. However, the gun issue is more concrete in that we know we outnumber them and that's why they're scared. They attempt to apply the disinformation technique of claiming that they outnumber us. All you have to do is keep your eyes open and look around at your friends and neighbors for affirmation. We are legion (in a good way, of course.)
There is a Freeper who has been published in Pravda.
Orthodoxy SUCKS.
