Perhaps one of the greatest areas of division in our nation today is the debate over guns. For the last several decades we have seen politicians, celebrities, corporations and even religious groups come out against the idea that Americans should be able to own guns, and carry them on their person. Firearms known as “assault rifles” -- in particular AR-15’s -- have been heavily targeted by activists and politicians.

| This piece was well written, humorous, and biblical, a difficult balancing act for anyone. That said, it was also sobering to read a piece discussing armed resistance that I couldn't come up with a dozen reasonable arguments against beyond reasoning that armed resistance is never the correct response to a political situation. Because if that were the case this country would not exist. That this country has again come to this point is frightening, but I am truly concerned for the safety of the republic. Somebody please convince me that this author and I may both be wrong. |

| The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so. Indeed I would go so far as to say that the underdog is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let's not have any native militia or police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order. — Adolf Hitler, April 11, 1942. (Source: "Hitler's Table-Talk at the Fuehrer's Headquarters 1941-1942", Dr. Henry Picker, ed. (Athenaeum Verlag, Bonn, 1951).) |
