Colin Waugh bought a shotgun four weeks before November’s election. An unapologetic liberal, he was no fan of firearms. He had never owned one before. But Waugh, a 31-year-old from Independence, Missouri, couldn’t shake his fears of a Donald Trump presidency — and all of the chaos it could bring. He imagined hate crimes and violence waged by extremists emboldened by the Republican nominee’s brash, divisive rhetoric. He pictured state-sanctioned roundups of Muslims, gays, and outspoken critics.

"He pictured state-sanctioned roundups of Muslims, gays, and outspoken critics."
What paranoid twaddle. Good grief. Trump was not my 1st choice for republican candidate (most other of the 16 contenders would have been ... well, "okayer") but to try to infer he's the 2nd coming of Hitler or Pol Pot is beyond absurdity.
However ....I welcome Colin to the gun owning community. Just watch where you point that muzzler there, Colin. OK just leave the weapon in another room .....

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
