Well said Patriot. My ancestors came from the very places you speak of. I was raised hearing them tell me, NEVER GIVE THEM YOUR GUNS. Unfortunately, for them, there were not enough of their fellows who felt the same way. The annals of history tell the sad story of defenseless masses. Luckily for my family, they came to the US before the atrocities began. For us however, we have no America to go to. We have to make the stand here. G-d and guns are the two things that stand between us and absolute tyranny. Thank you for your thoughtful response.
