I take it you have never had a close one killed in war. I don’t even think you have killed an animal yet Fur. Life is to be respected. Guns are not toys and yes, they should be feared and respected as should God.

+4

Hell yes, some things, like war, should be left to professionals. During the revolutionary war we had weapon parody with the Brits, and the home field advantage and we squeaked by. There is not parody now, we are literally out gunned and we don’t have a George Washington. We don’t have strong enough States to stick up to the Federal oppression we are under. You pea shooter may be useful for a while under anarchy, but where do you go from there???

+3

War should be left to “the professionals”?

I don’t think you understand the 2nd amendment.

+8

The 2nd amendment isn’t for woman that want to protect themselves. It’s supposed to prevent a tyrannical government. Self protection, and hunting are minor points and are a peace dividend of a lot of soldier blood that was shed to protect our rights.

Alpha Maser. No matter, it’s already happening. There is a very unorchestrated move to the defensive. You can’t deny that. My local discount amo suppliers, there 3 of them, are all out of anything you would most likely want. Sportsmen’s Warehouse is basically out of dehydrated food. (weird)

Dehydrated food will be vital as soon as the Dollar collapses.

Hah! I do understand the 2nd amendment. Its about “we the people” and “self governance”. It certainly has something to do with inalienable rights like preserving one’s life which applies equally to all humans.

+1

This shirt is about women exercising their right to self-protection, and to send the signal to people in society that prey upon women that they are indeed willing and able to be packing.

All your other points are for some other post, but not this one.
I spent time and energy on this, so did Anthem, and you’re cockblocking that effort with completely tangential and specious rants.
Particularly the part about war being left to the professionals.
Well, count me out as anyone that will be beating back the forces of tyranny – I’m not a professional.

+8

Call me really old fashioned. I think men were built to defend woman, and their children. Woman should know how to use guns, and if they like hunting that’s great. The 2nd amendment is much more serious than self protection and hunting.

T2A is about stopping tyranny by fighting fire with fire. That gets messy, bloody and ugly fast. I’m willing to go there if I have to. Are you? Will you take your woman with you?

+3

Fur, Woman, Men and MIB III aliens won’t be able to protect themselves with guns, *if* we don’t fight for our 2nd Amendment rights which have nothing to do with self protection. Let the government know that we know what the 2nd amendment means and that means it’s meant to stop the Fed’s over-reach. Period…… Period…. (I’m having my period)….
…

+3

As hard as this is in light of recent arguments I’m going to agree with BFH.
It’s about a t-shirt making a positive statement.

+6

What are you doing? The 2nd amendment is under attack right now and your making silly arguments with this woman protection BS!

The USA has shed a lot of blood a lot of years so that people could bear arms and occasionally discharge them — hopefully pointed at tyranny.

You arguments are just more purification and watering down of our rights.

+2

Is there auto correct? You’re … pussification… blah. I love you Fur, I just think we need a strong message right now about what T2A is REALLY ABOUT.

It ain’t about women blowing the balls of rapists or hunting… That’s all I’m saying…

The shirt is fine. It doesn’t undermine your concerns, but your concerns are certainly undermining the shirt.

The Constitution is not only about resistance to tyranny. It’s also about your right to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness; it’s also about simple safety and happiness:

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

+5

Sorry, I forgot you are a capitalist… I’ll buy a few for my family. Everybody buy this shirt please!!!

+3

The gun is a technology that renders equal a skinny woman and an iron-pumping rapist.

It puts on equal footing the physically weak with the strong, the old with the young.

Of course, it also makes the folks the equal of the government.

Anonymous, Where I live they were thinking about buying flee a tick collars for the local Black tail population, but the thought of harming flees and ticks sent them over the edge. I have so much damn game walking around here dehydrated food will not be considered. Back straps every night. Mathews Reazin. 320 ftps.

It’s not about capitalism.
If I could afford to give away the shirts I would.
It’s about the message.
If I wanted to make money selling shirts I’d make Justin Beiber shirts.

The shirt is 15 bucks. It probably costs Anthem to produce and ship each one about 12, that’s not including their time. It’s hardly motivated by capitalism.

We talk about messaging and a shirt is produced.
We certainly do not need fellow conservatives writing dissertations about how the shirt is actually hurting the cause.
That’s a tough claim to make, and I don’t think the effort in trying to do so is in proportion to what you’d accomplish.
This just seems unnecessarily contrary.

+9

and certainly the message, that the government will prevent women from evening the playing field with thugs, resonates with Daddy when he watches his little girl leave the nest. Especially if she has problems with abusive botyriends and stalkers.
A history lesson on the 2nd amendment and tyranny on a shirt is going to make eyes glaze over.
This is what I meant by leaving the agitprop to the professionals.

+7

Alpha Maser has always had awesome posts as long as I’ve been here. I am surprised at this reaction. It would be handy to know where you live. Here’s why, this shirt in Texas, Montana, Utah, Idaho, Az, etc,(including northern cali) no big deal. But I can think of places I would not let my wife or daughter wear this shirt. Where’s home?

+2

I am just feeling really really paranoid about the encroachment of the gun grabbers that are popping up everywhere in the wake of the recent massacres. I’m not convinced that most people even know what the Bill of Rights is anymore or what T2ndA is or what it was for in its original interpretation.

The Colt 45 was called a Peacemaker in its day. I don’t have Patriot missiles, Jets, Tanks, SAMs, ECM, radar or any realistic way to protect my self from the Fed’s oppression or spying these days. I don’t have a Peacemaker. The types of weapons that “We the People” are “allowed to own” is presently highly restrictive already and pretty much insufficient to stop Federal tyranny.

Forgive me for spilling my personal dementia and over-reaction on this blog.

Yes, everybody should be able to defend themselves from creeps but more importantly we need to be a check on Federal tyranny.

+5

Fences and guns make fine neighbors.

Alpha Maser, Read what AWD wrote about our military turning against us. I can confirm this. I deal with military and x military daily. Not gonna happen. However when benign government agencies start arming themselves, my ears perk up. But, I’ll fight that battle. Shit local law enforcements going to draw the line quick, why? Most are x military.

+7

I’d still like to know what state and city you reside. Believe me, I wont drop by for breakfast.

+2

The gun-grabbers and their useful idiots ignore that the defensive use of guns happens all the time. It’s not reported by the media nor by the police because generally a young woman only needs to reveal to her potential agressor that she is armed, for the incipient crime to be prevented on the spot, no shot fired.

The presence of a gun acts as a deterrent ; in virtually every case the gun doesn’t have to be fired; the rule is that the mere possession of the gun is enough; only exceptionnaly is the defendent required to shoot.

The Second Amendment is not only about armed militia; it is mostly about its deterrent value, to deter the government from abusing the people.

Dagny, What weapons do you own, how often do you practice?

Don’t answer that Dagny.

When are the funerals of the twenty little angels going to happen?

Imagine the 20 little coffins, decorated with pictures of the cutest kids, now dead, holding teddy bears, in one single frame.

Obama will say the eulogy, and will again shed a tear. Soledad will be tearful too; maybe Piers will receive Oprah. It’s going to be heart-breaking.

Will every American flags be half-mast?

And then, at the height of that pathos, Obama will call for Congress to ban, ban, ban Di-Fi-style. The MSM will back this with digital violons, trumpets and documentaries on dead angelic kids and the cookies they wanted to cook for grandma.

Ban them for the children!, for our little angels!

So, who was protecting the old homestead, while daddy was Bunker Hilling? Absolutely a T- Shirt should proclaim a woman’s right.

With all due respect.
If you asked me what weapons I own I would be a little suspicious.
Just my stupid opinion.
No offence intended.

MNP, That was to Dagny, (oh by the way, zip) not to
Alpha Maser,m which your original comment was about. I have nothing but respect for Alpha Maser, so let me rephrase the question that put a burr under that saddle.Alpha Maser, do you live in Chicago or New York. How’s that bitch?

Alpha Maser, Knew it, Things get much worse, you and Mr, Furman gotta relocate quick. I wouldn’t let my women wear that shirt there either. When you move, go someplace they can wear it. You guys would be much better off in Northern Cali. For a while anyway.

+2

MNP, The reason I asked Dagny that question was because I was pretty sure I already new the answer, and as it turns out, I did. A also was reasonably sure where Alpha resided, and I was right. I Alpha lived where you or I live, he’d probably feel different about that shirt. That was my point.

+1

Got it.
Seems Mary’s got some intuition going on too.

Yeah, but you didn’t accuse her of being the Fuzz. Bwaaahhaaa.

Lets just say I used that name calling gift unintentionally.

I’ll defend, to the death, any woman who chooses not to defend herself. Same with any man. Children are a given. If a woman wishes to defend herself, I will watch her six. Especially if she’s got a nice ass. In the event that she does not, I still got her six.

If you’re not leading, following, or catapulting pumpkins, you best get the hell out of my way.

+4

Big Fur Hat and Alpha Maser are tops in my book. Don’t like to see them arguing for that reason – but it does lend to some very interesting reading.

Brad – when you start asking personal questions – people get suspicious. MNP is just being protective – and I for one appreciate that.

MaryfroMMarin – good catch. Jeezel, I hope we don’t start getting split personalities again!

+3

Wear the shirt? Absolutely, if that’s what you want. Personally, I wouldn’t advertise. It’s a very personal decision. The debate between AM amd BFH seems to be about different aspect of a broad subject. Both sides have meritous arguments.

I also would be suspicious of someone that I don’t know or don’t know well, asking about my inventory.
No offense BB, but we live in strange times.

+4

Sorry, the question should have been do you own a weapon. I wasn’t interested in the inventory. I think Mary saw where I was going with it.

Where’s the wife-beater shirt? Let’s get totally into this.

yeah, you really think the military is going to back up the current admin? When all those troops realize they won’t be trusted to own a firearm when they get out? Nah, ain’t gonna happen. “To protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign AND domestic”

If we,as law abiding citizens, cannot have our guns,then who is to protect us from those who do not have them LEGALLY.
