#4 "Your honor, my personal defense weapon does not expel projectiles by action of an explosion of a combustible material. Y'see, this here innovative design simply propels a lathed piece of metal using simple expansion of gasses. The audible boom is also not an explosion, Sir. Doesn't happen when no one's around t' hear it. I swear."

#6 In other news, Black Friday weekend guns sales were enough to equipment the Marine Corps.

Remember Virginians, Jefferson's consent of the governed was bookended by Lincoln's willingness to give the last full measure of devotion.

Or in the old sergeant's words - are you prepared to die on that hill?

#10 we'll sic SWAT teams on you and your family and your businesses!

That won't be the local sheriff. He and his deputies want to go home that night and walk back to their cars in the morning to drive to work.

They'll have to put together a state team. That might work one or two times. Then there be the inevitable Concord Bridge incident. The folks in Richmond will panic and activate the National Guard. Only to find out they are gun owners as well. Then watch the idiots call upon the President to send federal troops in. I could hear Trumping laughing already from here.
