Sorry, this question has been bugging me all day while the DU community rails against (and for) the 2nd Amendment, apparently the result of the movie-theater shooting.
When I read this morning's news regarding the shooting, the first question that popped into my mind was, "What is really happening today?" So, I looked around for other news. This is what I found. Is it mere coincidence that on the same morning of a violent killing spree at a theater, banks are releasing information regarding wanting a "group settlement"? Yes, it *could* be coincidence.
When I read this item, the pressure to post these thoughts became just too much. RICO? Banksters not even being charged in spite of all the evidence available publicly?
Banks seem to own the world. So, onto the question. If citizens give up their guns, will the Banksters, and the central banks, national leaders, the military in all countries, and the police therein, will they all give up their guns, too?

(1,628 posts)If you try to meet this police state with violence, you're done. The 2nd amendment doesn't apply because one cannot meet the requirements to face such a force.
When the people bleed a plenty, by peaceful change, we will have achieved much. Who would they rule with no one left?
I haven't given OWS their due. We are not throwing our bodies into the machine. I'm not the only old person who cares, but i'm just as scared. So, to those brave young people I give you my love, my support, and my body if need be.
