RE: My Curie Story:
Not to get to political here but this is why I believe in our second amendment here in America. It is a way for us to defend ourselves against a tyranical government if we should ever be put in the same situation. You guys are basicly defenseless and at the mercy of the madmen. Does that make sense or am i a tinfoil hat wearing crazy man?
You are absolutely right in that respect. One of the things you hear people in our streets talk about is the impossibility of the average citizen to do anything about it. If the government controls the military, it controls everything, given that no regular people are allowed by law to bear arms. Then, the government creates a militia and additional shock troops made up of common criminals, you go figure...
As you rightly put it, we are defenseless. My university stopped protesting years ago when we had to face armed brutes only with our posters and ideas. And, we were labeled terrorists, anyway.
I wish people in America could understand this. They are continually trying to take our rights away. If we learn nothing from history we are doomed to repeat the mistakes. Disarmament is always the step taken before mass genocide. It is terrifying to know that so many people do not understand this.
It's downright scary. Real scary.
