The Bully Pulpit

Poor Sam Adams.

Mean old gun owners won't let him disarm them.

Just another government fascist thug (I know, that's redundant) attempting to follow their traditional model.

That's quite a lot of doubleSpeak packed into such few words:

1) Forcible civilian disarmament laws are just "common sense."

2) Forcible civilian disarmament laws are merely "gun reform."

3) Forcible civilian disarmament laws are "stalled," never defeated, and thus will inevitably be passed.

4) Peacefully using the political process to defend your natural rights is "bullying."

5) Being principled and refusing to surrender to evil is the same as being unwilling to compromise about anything.

6) Civil-rights groups that focus on the Second Amendment constitute a "lobby."



Let's try translating the Mayor's post into English:

Why the latest attempt to violate the right of citizens to own and carry firearms failed: peaceful advocacy by Oregon's principled Second-Amendment civil-rights organization.

I can't imagine how mayors can insist that their city not follow state law, and how states and nations can insist that their laws not follow the laws of natural, civil and human rights.
I'm glad people ARE NOT compromising and are NOT simply going where the air is freer. Be nowhere left to run, if we did that.

Oh, they're all discombobulated. At least we're past the "threatening" stage. You know the alleged threat: "If you leave me alone, I will totally not bother you, ever."

I'm sorry and all that we're ruining his game of chess using human pawns, but hey, land of the free and all that stuff. Don't take it so hard, pops.
