You have the right to kill any representative of this government who tries to tread on your liberty. I am thinking about self-defense and not talking about inciting a revolution..."<br /><br />Why? Because "confiscating your gun," while a clear violation of liberty, is not the same as being threatened with bodily harm. Many alternative responses are available to one who is compelled to "turn in his guns" (e.g., finding an lawyer and taking the offending agency to court).Frank Attanuccinoreply@blogger.com
