To protect against tyranny.  This is DR…

All over the country, the guns are flying out the door, and not just any guns, but as you might expect, the very guns the President wants to ban on the grounds that in the wrong hands they are just too deadly.

Now obviously these gun-buyers are not going to shoot up a classroom.  But you might ask, why DO they need such weapons?  Even if they have the right– why do they need them?

Well let’s think back a few days… when Texas Representative Louie Gohmert answered that very question:

TAPE:

It’s what the founders believed.  It’s why they insisted on a Second Amendment 225 years ago.  But we should at least take a moment to think through what that would mean today.

It would mean that some Americans are arming themselves so that, if necessary, they can fire upon members of the US military.  Should our government go rogue, and dispatch blindly obedient soldiers to march through our neighborhoods to round us up, we will ambush them – just as the Taliban would.

That’s what I find weird – Americans arming themselves so that if necessary, they can kill the very soldiers that we now thank for their service at every opportunity.

But these soldiers are the sons and daughters that we raised, aren’t they? If the order ever went out to round up and enslave the citizenry, wouldn’t our sons and daughters say – hell  no?  Would we really have to shoot them?

Now this.

Following the fatal shootings of 20 children and six adults last week at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., BulletBlocker said it is struggling to keep up with demand for its bulletproof backpacks for children.
