Just because the quote had "gun" in it, doesn't mean it's about guns. Are you so obsessed that you made a leap like that?

Please cite where I've suggested disarming the populace.

Do you think there could or would be an armed revolt in America?
How do you have an armed revolt if you're not armed?

Bombs and illegal guns.

If you were to actually revolt, using legal guns besides rifles and shotguns won't get you very far.

Ok, for Jinx, let's all agree that this revolution does not have to be a revolution with guns - wouldn't want anyone else to misconstrue the premise. This revolt can be peaceful, non-violent, or using rock, pointy sticks, or bananas. Now that we've clarified that, let's get on with the POINT of the discussion.

BTW, that's a stretch if you're interpreting that to mean I suggested to "disarm the populace".

It was a general statement. Although you have mentioned that you think people should voluntarily disarm themselves, so I'm not sure why you're taking exception to what I said.

Because he goes to great lengths to plan a thread that will ultimately prove him right, so when it doesn't, he always gets pissy.
