So are conservatives hypocrites about gun ownership?

So are Conservatives hypocrites about gun ownership?

If you're a conservative and worried about the democrats 'taking over' its OK to buy a gun to defend yourself or 'revolt' but if you're a Democrat and worried about rampaging Conservatives running through the streets, burning democratic stories, looting democratic homes and burning them alive, you think they're wrong?

Conservatives are talking about revolution all of the time. Do they think it will be a nice orderly affair? Do they think that the conservatives will all behave nicely and orderly and compassionately and not attack liberals?

Yeah. Right.

Update:

Note the number voting me thumbs down.

Glenn Beck talks over and over again about armed apocalypse.

I OWN a gun thank you very much but I own it to protect myself from people who don't respect the rule of Law.

Update 2:

DAMN straight I'm worried.

Have you ever BEEN in a revolution? I have. I was there one of the times in Venezuela when Chavez tried to take over.

People are people and even if you believe Conservatives are the best people in the world and liberals suck, if you think that conservatives will behave all nice like if they revolt you've mentally defective.

Liberals would be wise to protect themselves.

Update 3:

1 Christianity

Who gets to define what Christianity means? Conservatives?

2 Freedom of Speech

Really? You mean the freedom of corporations to own as much as they want of the public airwaves. That's not freedom, that's economic nepotism. Freedom is about choices for people and corporations are not people.

3 Right to Bear Arms

Yeah I agree. But then why did conservatives complain about my buying a gun to protect myself from them?

4 Over taxation

At exactly what % would you call it reasonable to tax someone? There are some who think 20%, some who think 1%....if you allow ARMED REVOLT to decide that number instead of the majority you'll never have peace.

    The 2nd amendment gives ALL Americans the RIGHT to bear arms.

    This was established many many years ago.And as for your rambling of "Conservatives " running through the streets burning democrats homes down or looting them,well its just that..rambling. Last time I checked on any news I saw more of the left wing folks standing outside being more aggressive in there movements than any right wing group. Regardless of the issue..remember the AIG situation, or when Cindy ? stood out in front of President Bush's Crawford house back a few years ago. These groups were aggressive and left wing ( democrat) not Conservative. The only thing your seeing people standing up for what is Constitutional right and if you don't believe in the Constitution then your in the wrong Country.

    Do I think this Country is going to turn,yes, but because it is being FORCED with policies that go AGAINST the very fiber of what this Country was founded on: We were founded on these any many more:

    1 Christianity

    2 Freedom of Speech

    3 Right to Bear Arms

    4 Over taxation

    This is by far the craziest rant of a question I've ever read. Who has ever said a Democrat couldn't own a gun? And also what does "burning democratic stories" even mean?And since when have Conservatives ever looted a democrats home or burned them alive? My only advice would be...keep taking your meds,and stay in school. One day it will all make sence to you.

    properly via all technicality, Somalia is unquestionably no longer under tyranny. So via all technicality, it is working completely. there is a few thing remarkable some u . s . a . as vulnerable as Somalia that cannot be taken benefit of via a international power. Somalia has a million and a nil.5 different problems with it. The trick is to take a rustic with out those million and a nil.5 issues, and permit them weapons. At one factor, that replaced into the united kingdom, yet ever considering they ended firearm possession their costs have merely went up.

    I don't think any Conservative would think a war is an affair that should be taken lightly nor one that should be hastily made like those damn neo cons in Washington did and the liberals who voted for it. But if it must happen it will.

    I have been a gun owner for 42 years. I have no intention to kill anyone.

    At the same time we are no longer the land of the free. Every day there are fewer things we are allowed to do. All governments become corrupt and power hungry over time.

    The Cons are out to get you!

    No believe it or not, cons are more likely to use them in self defense.

    Before we quote the Cheney incident, that was an accident and why would he shoot a friend on purpose?

    But if your that worried, you might want to put on a tin foil helmet, grab your pea shooter, and hide in the corner.

    well historically its liberals running through the streets looting, but I dont think you will find many conservatives telling you not to get a gun.

    So pretty much your premise is really off.

    How do you know the thumbs down were from libs that read the first line of your post.
