Quote:My rifles stay locked up, only coming out for cleaning, target practice, hunting, or to defend my country from tyranny .

Enough with the tyranny. Mugabe. Idi Amin. Stalin. Chiang Kai Shek. Hitler. Mao. Pol Pot. These people were tyrants. They killed millions by their rule. "Defending (your) country from tyranny" makes you sound like one of those clowns in Oregon throwing a hissy fit because you don't like what an elected leader or a government decides to do. You're not defending against tyranny because you have no clue what real tyranny is. You are just aping right wing pundits who like to throw that word around for big effect. When Obama starts rounding up those who oppose Planned Parenthood or LGBT rights and publicly executes them, then you can defend against tyranny. I'll join you. Until then, stop using that word. You sound ridiculous. It belittles the efforts of true tyrants who put in a lot of work to earn that title.
