Observation

A few things I have observed about present events in Egypt.

They have gun control.

The Egyptian government has an internet kill switch.

These are two things that the US Government has proposed getting.

Egypt has (had?) a dictator.

Does the US Government wish to make the president one?

Government control of all the firearms and communication basically guarantees a dictatorship.

We should oppose any attempt of the government to control either.
