Let's just say there are too many nut jobs in America and they are too well-armed, especially with military-style weaponry.like many of you nut jobs, he appears to be close to insane and should give up his military style weapons... You know the effects they have on many brainwashed wackjobs.... Genocide my butt. LOLLifted from an email sent to me. 100% concur.
Dear Beto,
Can I call you Beto? Great.
Anyway, I wanted to take a few moments to write an open letter to you regarding some of your recent thoughts on gun control. In particular, your comments regarding mandatory buybacks.
On The View earlier this week, Meghan McCain commented that such an act would trigger violence. Her comment sparked outrage all over the internet. You, yourself, argued that McCainās comments amounted to āIt becomes self-fulfilling; you have people on TV who are almost giving you permission to be violent and saying, āYou know this is this is going to happen.āā
Allow me to clue you in on something, Beto. Thereās not a single gun owner in this country who is looking to Meghan McCain for permission to oppose the tyranny of a mandatory buyback.
McCainās comments werenāt permission, they were a warning. It wasnāt something new, something she just pulled out of the ether in order to spark some controversy. Sheās merely echoing the statements people have made for decades regarding their willingness to die for their Second Amendment rights.
By claiming its a self-fulfilling prophecy and that people like McCain are giving people permission, youāre telling on yourself. Youāre telling each and every one of us that you have never bothered to listen to a damn thing any of us have said.
I didnāt even know who Meghan McCain was when I first heard someone issue the dire warning that if some form of gun confiscation were to happen, the first thing the jackboots trying to take them would get was the ammunition delivered at high velocity. The gun-rights community has warned that efforts to take away or guns would lead to civil war for years now.
You just didnāt want to listen.
We often talk about lawmakers being out of touch, and youāve just become the poster boy for that, Beto. You are so wrapped up in your liberal bubble that you simply canāt understand that this is a thing, this is something weāve gone on about for ages. You canāt understand it because you donāt want to understand it. In your mind, weāre all just good little drones who will do whatever Big Daddy Government wants us to do.
Weāre not.
Weāre the heirs of Lexington and Concord. Weāre the children of Valley Forge and Bunker Hill. Weāre a defiant, freedom-loving bunch that isnāt rolling over because some spoiled rich kid thinks we should.
Let me make it clear for you. If you come for our guns, we are going to fight back. We donāt look to Meghan McCain for permission to do that. She could tell us not to, and weād still fight back.
Beto, you need to understand. You need to learn. You need to come to grasp the simple fact that weāre not like you. We donāt look at government as an unmitigated good whose lead we should always follow. We have reasons for that. Itās called the history of the 20th Century filled with countless atrocities, atrocities carried out under the umbrella of government.
Those atrocities could only be carried out because the populations were unarmed.
Weāre not sheep. We will not be herded into genocide all because some well-meaning but sheltered rich boy who has never lived in a high-crime neighborhood in his life could tell us what we need and donāt need.
Meghan McCain gave no one permission for anything. Further, gun owners donāt need such a permission. Our permission was penned in 1776 and signed on July 4th.

Yeah, it seems to be you asswagons doing all the shooting. ALL progressives should be disarmed IMMEDIATELY!
