We do a pretty good job of arming our citizens.

I see the resident Communists are having a community hard on for Komrade Sanders.

As opposed to a rightist tyranny? How would that work? An armed militia?

How is supporting freedom and INDIVIDUAL liberty anywhere near a "rightist tyranny"? You Collectivists should move to Communist N. Korea.

Leftist tyranny as you call it seems to work well here in NorCal and suits me just fine and Korean food is pretty boring to me. In a democracy, is there a difference between left and right wing freedom?

So what's your beef? Had trouble finishing High School? Not enough guns or money?

For the historically atrophied Leftists here, this is NOT a democracy (thank God). The US is a Constitutional Republic. And yes there is a difference between Leftist oppression and Conservative freedom.

To be technical we are a constitutional democratic federal republic. All four terms are significant. We are a democracy, just a representative democracy instead of majority or popular vote. Our lives would be nothing but politics if every person had to vote on every issue.
