This is a brilliant article.
Absolutely brilliant piece on gun control in America. It articulates the real problem: the tyranny of government.
Read the whole thing.
"Karl Marx summed up Communism as “from each according to his ability, to
each according to his needs.” This is a good, pithy saying, which, in
practice, has succeeded in bringing, upon those under its sway, misery,
poverty, rape, torture, slavery, and death."
However:
"The Founding Fathers, far from being ideologues, were not even
politicians. They were an assortment of businessmen, writers, teachers,
planters; men, in short, who knew something of the world, which is to
say, of Human Nature. Their struggle to draft a set of rules acceptable
to each other was based on the assumption that we human beings, in the
mass, are no damned good—that we are biddable, easily confused, and that
we may easily be motivated by a Politician, which is to say, a
huckster, mounting a soapbox and inflaming our passions."
