We Want the Right to Be Tyrants

"What I’m going to try mostly to do is convince the legislature to let Philadelphia have the right to pass its own gun laws. We had that, when I was mayor, up until 1996 – then they took it away from us. I’d like them to give us that right back," Rendell said.
Translation: We want government to have the right to eradicate individual rights.

And here I thought Rendell was our pal.

  1. Americans used to have a lot of freedom when it came to defending ourselves and our country. We had that, when we were citizens, up until about 1934 - then they took it away from us. I'd like them to give us that right back.

  2. Unfortunately, "they" could care less what we'd like, Constitution be damned. They're the only ones qualified enough and facts will not be allowed to counter that fallacy. Just throw more of the tax payer's money into the bottomless pit that is the Nanny State.

  3. You mean "they" could NOT care less, right?

    You didn't mean to imply they they in fact, care substantially, did you?

  4. "I’d like them to give us that right back," Rendell said.....

    Rendell, is it a requirement that you government people have educations? Or, are you really that moronic? Do you have the slightest comprehension of what the word 'infringed' means? Any toddler understands what shall not means, why can't you? Moron.

  5. It doesn't surprise me in the least that this career politician doesn't understand that the State has no "rights." It has powers, it has authority, but no "rights."

    And then there's all that blather about the consent of the governed...
