From Penn and Tell's Bullshit. A succinct summation of why we need the second amendment, and a reason why the government is so eager to disarm its citizens.

Penn Jillette is my living hero. I am happy people like him exist that care so much about liberty. Check out his youtube channel: pennsays.

@bigcaptainD im glad you said that. the former mn governer and ex navy seal said the same thing BUT he also added, the vietnamese stood up to the entire american military's might and they were simple farmers with a few ak47's. and plus, theres over 307,000,000 civilians in the united states. and only 3,000,000 soldiers. we can and will win if we have to.

The most advanced of armies couldn't withstand 300 mill people, lmao.

Besides, people have more than just "shotguns, deer rifles and pistols".

We have machine guns (pre-1986 weapons, and if you're a dealer, post samples), semi-automatic military rifles, armored vehicles, and much more! Your ideology of what a gun owner owns is narrowed down to liberal-based assertions.

By the way, gun ownership lowers violent crime rates, so it's only good for the society.

with today's technology and all the high tech weapons of the military do we really think we could overthrow the government and the military with our shotguns, deer rifles and pistols?

When you have the government afraid of the people you have Liberty...when you have the people afraid of ther government you have tyranny....old quote. I do not suggest an overthrow of our government, but they need to remember who the hell works for whom!

"Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of American, cannot succeed with any lesser effort."

-- President John F. Kennedy, January 29, 1961
