Another pro-2A rally, another set of unconstitutional laws passed (in CT), some gun owners are in a grumpy mood, and today is the same as yesterday.
Politicians are still above the law of the land, and citizens still permit them to be. Ignorance and fear have once again trumped Liberty, but no one cares enough to do anything about it, because we are afraid of a little conflict, and we fear for our personal safety.
We spew our "principles" all over the internet, but when push comes to shove, we always cave. Stand up to the government?! pssshhh. That's crazy talk! I don't want to get arrested and go to jail! I want my warm bed and Netflix! Yeah, they passed some more laws, but those don't really affect me, because they're in a different state. Besides, I can always go buy some "pre-ban" mags later, even if the price is a little higher. Yeah, liberals suck and all that. But they haven't physically hurt anybody, and their heart is in the right place, so they can't be that bad, even if they are a bit misguided on these gun laws.
Violence definitely is not the answer, because that never solves anything. Plus we still have enough of a democracy....I mean....constitutional republic... that it's still not a bad place to live. I mean, yeah I work hard to get ahead, and I do have to give up 1/3 of my earnings to the government, but again, it could always be worse.
Yeah, I've got it pretty good. No need to rock the boat. I should probably get back to work.
Just another day.
Buck.
