Glad We Stood Our Ground

Despite FUDDs and scolds, I am pleased we stuck to our guns (literally) and successfully fought back since 1994 on gun control.

Looking at Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom since they put in gun control and watching what they're dealing with and what we aren't there's some satisfaction in seeing the wisdom of the founders play out in real time.

Most of the anglosphere has been reduced to saying, "stop or I will say stop again!" at best.  Because I've seen stories from England where saying stop will get you jailed for being intolerant.

That Bill of Rights thing turned out to be prescient. 

I also remember politicians in Australia, Canada and the UK assuring their citizens that their fears were unfounded and they would NEVER do what they're doing now.

    First sign a government is going to do something to you is it says it's not going to do something to you.

    And, funny, gun crimes in those places are at the same level or higher than when the draconian measures are enacted. Almost as if it's not the criminals the various governments don't want their subjects armed and able to resist said governments. Hmmm.
