Sandy Hook Elementary School Shootings

The individual (in the private sector or politically) has proven time and time again that he can not be trusted with power.

I agree with that concern.  Likewise to trust an all powerful individual, federal government is bad.  At the federal level, earthly power is complete.  You'd have to escape the union if you don't agree.  It's not a matter of moving to Texas, like 60,000 Californians did.

Okay....then you understand that conservatism, by your definition, does not work.

just look at as: hey, some people just get off on the idea of guns and shooting and killing and others ...... don't.....

I'm not sure that's the issue though.  For example, I don't like guns.

This idea of defending against tyranny of the government is ridiculous.

That's my concern. Because...

First off, the government has no need to violently confront it's populace or take it over.

... you said it!  Hitler worked his way up into the government.  No need to violently taking over his own nation.  Then you disarm them.

Wow.. Really  maybe get Bush back and illegally invade another country.
