RE: Where I Stand On Gun Control - A Canadians Perspective
Everything you say sounds rational. However we know government power is always abused. Obama wanted to seize guns from people that couldn't do their taxes. Which will be what happens when abusive democrats like him get back in power. Mental gun seizures will sky rocket if they cant get an outright ban.
Liberals use to be the ones with the progressive ideas. They wanted safer working conditions, fair wages, the end of racism, environmental protection, and anti war. Now its like lets tax everyone to death, because the rich deserve to be punished. Let's have transsexual parades, while framing straight men for shit they didn't even do. Anyone who's speaks out against giving hormones to boys has to feel ashamed of themselves? I was a liberal, but when I didn't see any liberals speaking out against Obama's trillion dollar deficits, I had a little fun, and started listening to conservatives. Now I might not be about drill baby drill destroy the earth kinda guy, but when they talk about limited but defined power, it made sense. Liberals thinks spending makes society great. They think money just grows on trees, and they are entitled to everything, even if their children have to pay for it.
While I disagreed with the old liberals, their causes were noble and just: Looking out for the little guy, fighting corruption of big business, etc. Now, they have abandoned that in favor of flooding us with occupying armies of semiliterate unskilled peasants who 85% of which go on government assistance, and 90% of which will likely become permanent-underclass bloc-voters for the democrats. Net-net: They have betrayed their black and blue-collar voters for a new protected class. They have jumped the shark.
