Right and Wrong…obsolete right-wing concepts?

[statdoc]

I have been contemplating the fact that one half of our society seems to approach things very differently than the other half. This is a deep divide, and worth considering. It seems that the liberals (or progressives, or leftists, or Democrats, or socialists, or whatever you want to call them) view the US Constitution as a “living, breathing document”, rather than something that must be followed as written. They sometimes propose laws or regulations that promote their point of view, but are confronted with the fact that the proposal is unconstitutional. Rather than accepting this, they just argue harder that regardless of the conflict with the Constitution, we should do it anyway. Conservatives, on the other hand, view the Constitution as a Divinely-inspired document that has lit the lamp of freedom throughout the world, and should be changed only with the greatest deliberation.

The constitution was orginally designed as a living document, it can be changed and in fact has been several times in the past. Now our forefathers had the fore thought to make it extremely difficult to add or remove amendments on purpose to keep the ruling body(which ever party or person) from makeing changes to suit themselves. The supreme courts job was do decide if said changes would be lawful. Our modern political partys are the ones that have f*+ked up the whole mess. For some reason we have become a society of absolutes like you say, but it is turned into if another doesn't believe exactly as you do then he is a moron. I myself try and be "the devils advocate" and look at situations from another point of view, case in point I can see how gun enthusiasts such as ourselves can be labeled as crazy with shows like DOOMSDAY PREPPERS. But thats just my theory.

I agree.. The best thing you can do, is what most of us have been taught since we were kids.. Keep a free mind and think for yourself!!

They do find the nutty ones! Who else would be on TV telling everyone how much shit you have! The question is it done deliberately for that goal??

But man, how cool would it be to have a bunker!!!

X1000 On keeping a free mind and think for yourself!

1. So what does gun registration do? It creates a list of who has guns PERIOD ! It in no way shape or form ,helps to stop shootings or solves crimes
2. Who would benefit from this? any group wanting to know at any given time who has a gun and where its at
3. Do background checks work? NO look at Chicago When I was young our government said we needed to have background checks for hand guns. And so we did. IT HAS NOT WORKED! why are we debating this CLEAR evidence
4. Hi cap clips. None of these people have ever been to a range! One look at a 911 enthusiast, doing “drop and pop” mag drills will have us all shooting single shots. ( 8rnds on target, “drop” mag , “pop” in new mag, engage new target.)
5. Will arming teachers work?? What do you think the cold war was? We pointed at them and they pointed at us. Worked pretty well!! We are all still here.

2nd amendment, hunting? Not really. Let’s boil it down to the basics of what it is. Pretty hard to herd (control) a field full of cattle with horns. But remove those horns and they become manageable. Eat when there told, moved when they are told, sleep when they are told ( all for their own good of Corse, too stupid to know what’s best)

A news “person” whom I used to hold in high regard made a statement while talking with the nra last night “the government coming to get your guns is ridicules” please read your history books ! this is the way ALL who have come before “control” the masses.

History lesson. Here we are again, the sheep flock has gown larger. A stray bull has gotten loose, killing a few sheep. The sheep look to the Sheppard, cut the bulls horns. Not realizing it’s the bulls that protect the sheep when the Sheppard or the wolf comes in the night to murder lambs.

OUR FATHERS, WHO DRAFTED OUR CONSTSITUTION DID read the history books, knowing the slow-minded sheep were easy to convince. Sheppard’s must be kept in check, SO THE BULLS MUST KEEP THEIR HORNS.

The divide between the two groups with dramatically different world views has never been wider.
