Through out history, the price of having tyrants has been blood, and the price of freedom has been blood, and probably always will be. For those who fought for freedom, the question is- who’s blood?

Thanks Arnie. I am a political pragmatist, but I do think an armed population places outer bounds on the amount of power the government can wield over the people. If one believes in popular sovereignty, the only way is really means anything is if the population can say no to the government, at gunpoint, if it becomes necessary.

I love you fellows! Have I told you that before? I truly do! I have finally found an erudite gun website where people “get it!” The guys at work keep telling me armed citizens cannot take on their government with its tanks and planes, and thousands of soldiers, etc. I keep pointing out the Russians, East Germans, Poles and even our Founding Fathers as evidence to the contrary – armed citizens are free citizens! Disarmed citizens are slaves of tyrants! Every time I see those thousands of unarmed Iranian citizens protesting and dying in Tehran I imagine them all armed with AK-57s and see a MUCH different result – a much better result! I see what you all have been describing on this post. An oppurtunity, a hope, a chance at freedom. Thank you all!!! God bless you! – Arnie

Several of the Ayatollahs are not happy about the violence and even at the top, there is some reason to fear the repercussions of a brutal put-down. And even if it gets crushed, the lessons of this uprising will not be lost on Ahmidinajad(?) et al.

NJSoldier:

You shoulda read some of the comments made by some folks over at huffington post, when the police started firing on the protesters, a few commentors stated that this is what happens when the people are unarmed and needed their owns, they ended up getting attacked by other commentors! Claiming the guns only escalate the problem and such, and that guns have no place in a Democracy……Gee escalate the problem, when people are already getting shot and killed……

Doom.

The Iranians are the new poster-children for the 2nd Amendment – and what happens without gun-rights.

Is this what Obama meant by “uncleanching its fist?”
