    Thumbs down Yesterday's Save Our Lives March

    Watched a lot of the coverage yesterday and today. I've no problem with peaceful assembly and protest, I mean it's a constitutionally protected right but talk about uninformed. Like anything else you can edit for content it might be biased but saw this guy on FNC who interviewed some of the folks protesting in D.C. Yesterday. Take about uninformed.

    There were young people advocating for "universal background checks" but when asked what a UBC was they didn't know but we need them. They wanted to ban "assault weapons" but when asked what an assault weapon was they didn't know. He asked several of them what the 2nd Amendment was and they either didn't know or just new it was outdated. Some even went so far as to say the constitution was outdated and needed to be rewritten or eliminated all together as it was no longer necessary.

    One young lady sad she found it unbelievable that you could sell a gun in a parking lot and not even update the registration. Does she think it's a car or something? Quite a few said it was too easy for anyone to get a gun but didn't know what the existing process was, just that it was too easy.

    It was very obvious and sad that most of them had no real knowledge of the constitution, bill of rights, existing gun laws or even the extent or scope of the changes they were demanding. Just along for the ride I guess.

    They are nothing more than a bunch of Communist brainwashed lemmings heading for the cliff as quickly as they can.

    They don't realize their actions are going to be one of the biggest reasons for the next civil war....

    They're bringing it on themselves and the rest of us.

    This is where they loose me
    It's apparent that their cause has been hijacked
    For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe

    Public education is having the desired effect. I saw one guy here with a sign that said "Arm Teachers with Pencils, Not Guns". My 16 year old niece was riding with my wife and I and when I pointed out the sign her response was "They were armed with pencils already, didn't do much good." She is home schooled and had a much better grasp of the 2A and the problems with what they were calling for than the people marching seemed to.

    I'm guessing the majority of these poor kids are lost, and are ready and willing to throw away the peace, freedom, and prosperity that was given them by our vets and the citizens who gave the vets the tools they needed to keep us free.
    They're following the dem/rino script to the letter.

    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"

    These kids are being used and they are too young to understand it. Its pretty disgusting but completely unsurprising that the left would stoop to this.

    They've always stooped to using 5 year olds with signs they don't even understand. It's pathetic. The communist party knows no bounds.

    When you let the left run your educational system you can pretty guarantee they will indoctrinate your children with a bunch of anti-American bullshit.

    The Hogg punk's speech was an eye opener to those who weren't sure what the point was.

    There was one picture taken of him during the speech and I've seen those eyes before.....
    On members of the Hitler Youth and the Communists Young Pioneers. In other words, they were the eyes of a fanatic, certain of himself, full of himself, righteous in his belief that his is the right and only way, and willing to do anything to have his way.
    These are the types of people who eventually end up shooting people in basements.

    I'll say that "Thank you, but I choose not to participate in your agenda".
    Thanks to the 2nd Amendment I can't be forced. All they can do is try to persuade me.
    That's why the hard Left's push to ban guns. They can't stand that people can say "NO" to them and make it stick.

    After all, they are Elites and are our betters. That some prole can say "NO" makes them just seethe.

    I'm very worried about America.

    "That tyranny has all the vices both of democracy and oligarchy is evident. As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E

    The truly scary thing is their vote (if they're 18 & registered) counts as much as mine or anyone else's here.

    As they want with guns, raise the voting age to 21, too.

    I don't think these young pinheads are going to be any wiser at 21 than 18.
