I made it clear that I don’t support any uprisings, and that I don’t believe uprisings are moral in general. Because you don’t have a right to cause death.
That said, the founding fathers created the system, yet you use modern examples. I believe 100% that the founding fathers would approve an uprising against the govt. now. As rebyidd pointed out, they didn’t like taxes. they also wanted their slaves which we find abhorrent. They would take one look at our system (from their perspective) and find it way more restrictive to their ideas of personal liberty then Britain was, and they would be the first to break away. They created the system. Do I agree with it? no. But it’s there.
which brings us back to square one
where I pointed out that I think many pro-gun advocates would negotiate if anti-gun advocates would concede at the very least to be honest about what they are trying to accomplish.
Because we know that what they want is a repeal of the second amendment. And even though post Heller I cant see that happening, silly laws restricting cosmetic features on guns are seen by the pro gun lobby as more than silly , rather as hostile to a logical discussion
