Allow the FUDDS to speak for themselves and then I shall deconstruct their complete idiocy. The following quotes were taken from this piece in The Hartford Courant, which can be read here:
Gun Control legislation: Gun Owners Decry Legislation - Courant.com
FUDD 1)
Paul Regish, 50, of
East Hartford, joined dozens of others on a bus to the Capitol from
Cabela's sporting goods store in East Hartford "to protest these new gun laws."
Regish said he does support some new gun-control initiatives, such as certain limits on ammunition purchases.
"
I don't think anybody should be able to go into a store and buy ammunition, there has to be a reason," Regish said. "They can tighten up a few things."
But he disagrees with the majority of what the legislature was set to adopt.
"Law-abiding citizens that are
sportsmen, hunters, why take away from us?" he said. "What I'm afraid of is it's not going to stop here."
FUDD 2)
They heard a lot of people, which was good,'' said Chris Fields, founder of King33 Training
.
"I don't think that everybody's efforts fell on deaf ears whatsoever," he said. "It's not so much a win …they listened to us and
they understand what's good for us. So there is some consideration in there."
He noted that lawmakers could have gone further.
"They could have gone after concealed carry and said
we're not allowed to carry in the street. They could have gone after confiscation. … The fact that we're not disarmed is because our voices were heard."
These two UNBELIEVABLE instances of Fuddery can only be described as mind-numbingly ignorant and borderline collaborationist. I say borderline collaborationist because these idiots are, in their warped, ignorant, tiny minds, on our side. Or at least they think they are. Let us deal with FUDD #1:
Fudd 1 wants a reason you NEED ammo. And if you're not a sportsman or hunter, who he calls "us".. then YOU ARE FAIR GAME for come what may, as long as he feels reasonably assured that he won't be next.
FUDD 2 is so far gone as to be irredeemably lost. His groveling and fealty before those he considers his superiors is palpable in his choice of words:
"they listened....they understand what's good....we're not allowed.....they could have...."
This FUDD operates at the mercy of They. If any one of us ever counted on this TOOL to have our back in a "go time" scenario, we'd be sold out, captured or dead before we knew what happened. This individual would voluntarily disarm out of sheer Obedience to Law if "they" had decided not to "listen" or "understand" and no longer "allowed" him to be armed. He is a slave pretending for the moment, to be a free man. He gets away with it for now because he has not been tested.
The problem with these people is that as gun owners, they are prodded by the media to speak for what is "reasonable" because they agree with the official narrative. We who hold fast are cast as fringe, extreme and UN-reasonable. It is divide and conquer. It is a free tool for our enemy to use against us. The FUDD weakens our position significantly by allowing themselves to be used as wedges against us. We would be better off without them and their limited and selfish activism, their willingness to give AID & COMFORT to our enemies. The FUDD starts from a position of inferiority relative to his government. He thinks in terms of what he is allowed to do. His arms are for sporting, nothing more. He is doing what he is allowed to do, and fearful of it no longer being "allowed" because then he will have to stop. He dabbles in the shooting "sports" for the sport of it. I wash my hands of all who are not absolutist, because this is not about sport or pastime. This is about the flame of Liberty in America being extinguished FOREVER. If, as a gun owner, you are not fighting for that Ideal above all else, you're a drain on resources, a waste of time or an unwitting accomplice to those opposed to human freedom.
