It's just a new tactic in an old and ongoing battle. They are trying to demonize gun owners by using a fear inspiring term. Much like DHS decided to over emphasize the threat from "right wing" terrorists while also expanding the definition there of.
Can I get a bumper sticker that says "I am an armed insurectionist"? Maybe with a picture of a gun on it.
I've been called far worse names by far better people.
You and me both luv.
Well....looks like I'm gonna have to make up another tee shirt. Geez...these guys are keeping me busy with sayings. I'm not sure I've got enough money in the checking account to keep up with them all. The last one was the burkha thing...now this. Okay anti's - ya ready?
"Armed Insurectionist, and damn proud of it.
...you got a problem with that?"
Or....
"Insurectionists R us"
What do you think guys?
An excellent example of the anti's being terrified by the upswing in gun purchases. Far from going in the direction they wanted, an administration with a clear anti-gun agenda isn't greeted with joy, it's greeted with fear and panic buying of guns. American's have shown with their paychecks that they WANT guns - and that scares the crap out of the anti's because it directly contradicts their world view. The more people that own guns, the stupider their rhetoric looks, the more they have to resort to more strident propaganda like this and the 20/20 article.
Keep the pressure on antis! You're just creating more gun owners.
Very of which are printable on a family board. Although I particularly favor GFW (Gun Fearing Wussy).And we have our own special names for them
Lynne, may I help out? I was thinking of something like this:
FEAR ME,
I'M AN ARMED INSURRECTIONIST
Like John Hancock, Sam Adams, Ben Franklin, et. al.
I was thinking of red and blue lettering on a white background. Think there might be a market?
Would this be better? Pic of Paul Revere, Ben Franklin, & George Washington, and under them the caption "The original Armed Insurrectionists"?
...
We are being "Swiftboated"... or as I have began calling it, "Alanskied". They are doing anything possible to make us look bad... a smokescreen to make *us* look like the radicals instead of them. The TEA party protests are a great example.. trying to make it look like a fake movement of fringe "Wingnuts" whom were just bitter about losing elections. Then comes the DHS reports saying these "Wingnuts" are possible extremists that should be watched closely. I dread to think what the next steps after that could be...
A newsletter, do you have one?
...another thing that's going to backfire on them....
Like endorsing Obama, another thing that's going to backfire on them.
Look, really, LOOK at the statistics out there.
An overwhelming majority of Americans support firearms ownership. Something like 68%, in fact.
Now, don't you realize this is a gasp in desparation by a dying, self-serving organization?
Call me anything you want, other than defeatist, coward, pacifist or Tory.
