This is Tyranny Disguised as Freedom
The current, popular interpretation of the Second Amendment is nothing less than tyranny that has been cleverly disguised as freedom for political and financial gain.
It is tyranny when we have a mass shooting in this country every single day; the only country in the entire world where this happens.
It is tyranny when our school children are cruelly butchered in their classrooms and are traumatized while having to perform active shooter drills across this land.
It is tyranny when Americans practicing their religion are slaughtered in their houses of worship.
It is tyranny when our political leaders use this bloodbath to further their political aims and do nothing to stop the daily carnage.
This is war.
This is a war being waged against the American people and there is a daily body count to prove it.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
