“I bet I own more guns than all those people who came in the office put together,” Nevarez added. “I mean, I have a lot of weapons. I have a shooting range on my place. So I don’t think they really did their homework with the person they came to accuse of not being a Second Amendment supporter.”
Kory Watkins, the man behind the camera, told KXAN by phone that he wouldn’t support an open carry law that requires a permit.
“If you support the Second Amendment, you support the bill we provided him. He admitted he didn’t support it and he wasn’t going to support it. He admitted he was a tyrant to the constitution.”
Watkins says the constitution is clear and you don’t have to ask permission or pay a tax to have a gun. |

Yet another example of the flaming hubris of politicians-in-office. Absolute contempt for the electorate drips from every statement. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
