How many times have you heard those loony lefty liberals say that the
motivation of the 2nd Amendment--the idea that guns are the last defense
of freedom against a powerful government--is an outdated or silly notion?

Well, folks, looks like liberals have finally got the pie thrown in
their face. All you have to do is compare the experiences of David
Koresh--a man who used his guns to fight the government, vs. the FLDS,
who didn't use guns.

When the federal government tried to invade Koresh's stronghold to take
away his right to molest kids,

I know molesting children is one of your top priorities-- especially
when you can't find any animals-- but the feds were not there to stop
him from molesting children. They were there for unpaid taxes. Period.

Koresh didn't take it lying down (no pun
intended). He did what every God-fearin' Merkin should do--he used his
SECOND AMENDMENT RIGHT and shot back the government with his guns.

Kill some of them too. Good for him.
