Each human being comes to Planet Earth sovereign, subject to no other without explicit permission. It’s “natural law”, the rational and logical analysis of what can and what cannot make sense.
Each human being comes “equal”, i.e., human, not horse or pig, not broccoli or tree. Each human being comes unique, unlike any other, as with snowflakes. So each human being comes endowed by the Creator or “nature’s God” with the unalienable rights to life, to liberty, and to the pursuit (which means “earning or achieving”) of happiness.
And each comes with the unalienable right to self-defense of those rights. From whence, then, comes the “right to 
bear arms”? The 2nd amendment is but iteration, re-statement by the Founders of what was granted by the Creator.
A frail octogenarian woman still has the right to self-defense, and the great equalizer between her and an early-20s gang banger is a firearm.
There are two categories of people who oppose the right to bear arms: (1) those who seek more political power over We the People, and (2) those with unresolved personal mental-health issues. The latter need psychological help with their issues. The former make crystal clear why We the People must not let them win.
Slaves are not allowed guns.
Rocks and tree limbs can help.
Yup. Well said.
Using “liberal logic” (a complete oxymoron), forks cause overeating. Therefore we should have a “silverware ban” to fight the nation’s “obesity epidemic”.
Yes, progressivism/liberalism is a mental disorder.
Guns insure liberty while also serving to protect life and property. Just ask any leftist elitist whether they ‘d rather wait for government to after their life, liberty or property has been attacked or enjoy the comfort of having personal assistants armed with a guns to protect same. I would not hunt for sport, but would for necessity. I would, however, kill to protect human life and the liberty thereto attached.
Sounds to me, AfterShock, that you have your stuff together.
Maybe the reason orientals tend to be less overweight is that they eat with chop sticks instead of forks. It would work for me!
Uuummm, three things, Cream of Wheat, as I try to relate to the subject at hand. First, is eating with chopsticks, then, expression of the unalienable right to self-defense against obesity?
Second, aren’t we pretty sure that “orientals” KNOW about forks? I mean, there’s a Chinaman working the rice field all day with a shovel. Does it occur to to him that shovel is to fork or spoon as chopsticks are to tilling his field with, say, a couple of pool cues?
Third, does an “oriental”, when working the fields have a right to bare arms? Let’s not even go to “shirtless”.
To clarify, when I spoke of “unresolved personal mental-health issues”, I was thinking denial, projection, etc. Someone, for example, who is worried (not concerned) about what he’d do if he had a firearm and were angered by his neighbor subconsciously is scared of his feelings or projects onto others who possess guns.
Someone with those defense mechanisms in play cannot be dissuaded rationally or logically. They must be gently prompted to face what is now subconscious with narrative questioning.
The disorder called accute libtardation, for which no therapy has as yet proven effective.
that was supposed to read “acute” libtardation.
Is that the disorder, AfterShock, whose symptoms include wussification, chickification, unquenchable thirst for feeling, intolerance for thinking, and need for an addadicktome surgery?
That sounds ’bout right to me Doc
Oh gosh pete I forgot to add the uncontrollable LOL as I pondered the source surgery “extractadickfrome”, a popular procedure among the willing donors of Libtardia.
Another manifestation is cranial rectitis (CR), for which the only hope of cure is a rectal craniotomy. Symptomology for CR includes restricted vision due to navel obscuration of field of view, as well as Tourette-like spewing of gibberish speech.
The virtual visuals, BrianR, are worth the price of admission.
The procedure Brian describes can of course become complicated by the onset of dry bowel syndrome where the absence of sufficient lubrication to pass the cranial dome through the anal canal requires a set of episiotomatic incisions around the sphincter ani externusanus into the anal canal itself, at least enough to “slide” if you will, the cranium freely from the rectal cavity, through the anus beyond the sphincter and into open air. Surgical repair of injury to the anal canal and sphincter no doubt will cause indescribable trauma top to bottom.
You guys crack me up.
I think, boys and girls, that our bona fides vis-a-vis diagnosing others’ mental disorders is declining . . . rapidly.
