- Who said that? Karl Marx (1850)
"That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourers cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
Who? - George Orwell, Author of 'Animal Farm' and 'Nineteen Eighty-Four'.
The above quotes are from an E-book ' The Left Wing in Defense of the Right to Bear Arms'.
Only in recent times has it been thought that left-wing parties are naturally 'anti-gun' and that to be 'pro-gun' you need to vote for a right-wing party such as the G.O.P in USA or 'National' in New Zealand.
Personally - I am a 'leftie' and very keen on enjoying my shooting sport here in NZ - and indeed I am also a 'greenie'. - If we fail to protect our natural environment there'll be no wild food to hunt and eventually there may well be no healthy natural food of any sort for us to eat. "They" will then expect us to eat stuff grown in factory labs as squishy grey 'meat' dyed pink - and insects ground into flour with worm meal for dinner. - Oh, is that what's in burgers and hot-dogs already?
Jerry Miculek is fast too!
I get very worried that ' Gun Bans' have been introduced - in UK and to some extent in Australia and New Zealand among others - that have completely failed to reduce gun crime and violent crime.
- Logic would dictate that such abject failure to produce the goods would be followed by repeal of the failed laws and return of the shooters rights at least to where they were previously.
So I guess that we can conclude that logic, fact, and truth do not play a dominant part in the governance of our 'Democratic' nations.
- Sorry, but that's all I could think about writing today ! - I'll try find a decent joke to include in the next post.
