In Texas we call it the Castle Law. You may live in a dump, but you are free to protect it like a castle. -- cal, lewisville, tx 1
We hold this truth to be self evident. -- Mike, Norwalk 1
Whenever we talk about constitutional rights, we ought to remember the answer to the question, "Says who?" Is the government declaring the rights or are the People? And are these rights subject to vote? "Says who?" -- E Archer, NYC 1
I have rights to defend myself against religious tyranny that TV preachers are into disarming the public and taking the wealth from everyone else to put us in a helpless situation fronted by bush & 911 inside job -- rob, Genesee 1
I feel sorry for you rob, your bigoted lunacy only illuminates the most shallow side of stupid. Have you gone public with the tie between gun toting TV preachers that so sufficiently have robbed your wealth and the Bush's 911 inside job? Turn off the TV or turn the channel when those threatening / gun toting preachers start doxing you ;-) Don't let those TV preachers disarm you — don't share your wealth with them. Are you as animated against the occupying statist theocracy that infests this land? Do you send portions of your wealth to said statist theocracy because they know your address and are ready, willing and able to use the full force of arms against you? -- Mike, Norwalk 1
