I officially declare my Business a MUSLIM FREE Zone

She has a right to her opinion just like all of us here.
She also has the right to refuse service in her business to anyone she doesn't like the look of. If she sold weapons and ammo to a home grown terrorist or other murderous individual, some of you guys would be at the head of the line to condemn her for it. Especially if that customer went on a killing spree.

Did the Tea Party nutter logo throw you off that much? She made some very valid points.

Disarming the American populace seems to be a running global theme these days.
You can have my weapons when you pry them from my cold dead fingers. I'll give up the ammo first. Try not to get in its way.

She's far more likely to sell weapons to a white young male who then goes on a killing spree, or has their son go on a killing spree after stealing their weapon than she is to sell a weapon or ammunition to a Muslim who goes on a killing spree.

I think if it comes to that I won't touch your fire arm. Because it would be poisoned by an airborne chemical agent if you catch my drift.

Sure. But when an opinion is so askew and 'general' and hand-picks phrases out of the Koran and applies that to ALL Muslims then yea, it's an opinion which doesn't do much to raise her credibility.

Sure. But when you 'paint' a broad stroke with the same brush to all of the same type of persons, be it religious, ethnic, cultural, yellow, green, gay, red or purple, then we have a problem.

Oberon covers that.

Valid? The only valid point made in that article wasn't by her, it was by the reporter.

To explain my point - if anyone invades mainland US in such a way that locals would require to use their private arms, then I seriously doubt that there would be any issues with using persistent chemical agents or other such means which would essentially negate the armed population.

When it comes to private gun ownership these days it's rarely about resisting foreign invasions. It's usually the government is coming to put me in a FEMA camp, so I need my guns. Or they are going to ban all guns, so I need more guns.

A smart man once said to try to plan your life independent of who is elected to office. At least run your life in spite of who is elected.

A friend of mine followed this example. When President Obama was re-elected he bought 2,000 shares of Ruger stock. The stock skyrocketed. He sold half last May. He did not believe for a moment that President Obama was going to succeed in taking away the guns, just that enough other knee-jerk types did.

I can't help but admire his thinking and bank account.

So the pro gun people are afraid of governmental oppression? Then how does the gun ownership help if there are so many non violent ways to oppress the population?

And if the police does come to imprison you (without proper justification of you commuting a crime), how would the gun ownership help?

You could probably put these questions to the lone guerrilla currently living out his law enforcement evasion fantasy in the Poconos Mountains of Pennsylvania.

I doubt you'd get a a rational answer.
