this was ONE of our holocausts. then the chaining of an entire race for labour and profit...to be killed or shackled at the will of the landowners...

but the indians had guns. in fact they gave us a run for our money at times. did it stop them being slaughtered by our superior firepower? no.

so please don't tell me that a bunch of armed but essentially DIVIDED disconnected folk will successfully take on the govt if it ever comes to that.

it is not a tangent, i was offering a closer to home example that had different results than, say the revolution, but a different dynamic than nazi germany... maybe you need a little more elasticity in your thinking.

i don't claim to be the perfect communicator. i don't consider this the perfect medium. i am not a linear thinker, it's true. there are a lot of different offshoots to most of these threads.

I guess we will not see eye to eye, Kat. I come from a Biblical perspective. That is my lens in which I view all events, which includes current events.

Someone who does not hold that world view would not be on the same page as I.

Just out of curiosity, if Obama kills us (in the next 3 years?) then who pays his pension? And does his special interests who want us to buy their products know?

And who exactly is he supposed to be going after anyway? I can't recall any Hitler-like speeches (like the years of propaganda and public speeches by Hitler against Jews before targeting the minority with the aid of the majority) on his part...excerpts from relevant speeches made by Obama (with claps and cheers of the audience a definite bonus) that are a build up to a Final Solution are appropriate here.

He is not going to kill us, wholesale. He wants to get rid of dissenters. Those he may kill, if they don't stop, which many will not. We see that with people and their guns and I applaud them!

as to gun wavers, have you ever heard of the action-reaction-solution scenario? in this case, a nasty incident followed by talk of DOING SOMETHING to stop further slaughters, causing the reaction of people STOCKPILING guns at a ridiculous rate, creating the NEEDED solution of actually confiscating guns where there wasn't one before, or worse, coming out with their guns and creating the need for superior firepower to put them down.
