These days, there are few few things to admire about the socialist, bankrupt and culturally degenerating USA, but at least so far, one thing remains: the right to bare arms and use deadly force to defend one’s self and possessions. This will probably come as a total shock to most of my Western readers, but at one point, Russia was one of the most heavily armed societies on earth. This was, of course, when we were free under the Tsar.
One of the first things the Soviets did when they took over was to disarm the population. From that point, mass repression, mass arrests, mass deportations, mass murder, mass starvation were all a safe game for the powers that were. The worst they had to fear was a pitchfork in the guts or a knife in the back or the occasional hunting rifle. Not much for soldiers.
To this day, with the Soviet Union now dead 21 years, with a whole generation born and raised to adulthood without the SU, we are still denied our basic and traditional rights to self defense. Why? We are told that everyone would just start shooting each other and crime would be everywhere….but criminals are still armed and still murdering and to often, especially in the far regions, those criminals wear the uniforms of the police.

This will probably come as a total shock to most of my Western readers, but at one point, Russia was one of the most heavily armed societies on earth. This was, of course, when we were free under the Tsar. Weapons, from swords and spears to pistols, rifles and shotguns were everywhere, common items. People carried them concealed, they carried them holstered. Fighting knives were a prominent part of many traditional attires and those little tubes criss crossing on the costumes of Cossacks and various Caucasian peoples? Well those are bullet holders for rifles.
Various armies, such as the Poles, during the Смута (Times of Troubles), or Napoleon, or the Germans even as the Tsarist state collapsed under the weight of WW1 and Wall Street monies, found that holding Russian lands was much much harder than taking them and taking was no easy walk in the park but a blood bath all its own. In holding, one faced an extremely well armed and aggressive population Hell bent on exterminating or driving out the aggressor.
This well armed population was what allowed the various White factions to rise up, no matter how disorganized politically and militarily they were in 1918 and wage a savage civil war against the Reds. It should be noted that many of these armies were armed peasants, villagers, farmers and merchants, protecting their own. If it had not been for Washington’s clandestine support of and for the Reds, history would have gone quite differently.
Moscow fell, for example, not from a lack of weapons to defend it, but from the lieing guile of the Reds. Ten thousand Reds took Moscow and were opposed only by some few hundreds of officer cadets and their instructors. Even then the battle was fierce and losses high. However, in the city alone, at that time, lived over 30,000 military officers (both active and retired), all with their own issued weapons and ammunition, plus tens of thousands of other citizens who were armed. The Soviets promised to leave them all alone if they did not intervene. They did not and for that were asked afterwards to come register themselves and their weapons: where they were promptly shot.
Of course being savages, murderers and liars does not mean being stupid and the Reds learned from their Civil War experience. One of the first things they did was to disarm the population. From that point, mass repression, mass arrests, mass deportations, mass murder, mass starvation were all a safe game for the powers that were. The worst they had to fear was a pitchfork in the guts or a knife in the back or the occasional hunting rifle. Not much for soldiers.
To this day, with the Soviet Union now dead 21 years, with a whole generation born and raised to adulthood without the SU, we are still denied our basic and traditional rights to self defense. Why? We are told that everyone would just start shooting each other and crime would be everywhere….but criminals are still armed and still murdering and to often, especially in the far regions, those criminals wear the uniforms of the police. The fact that everyone would start shooting is also laughable when statistics are examined.
While President Putin pushes through reforms, the local authorities, especially in our vast hinterland, do not feel they need to act like they work for the people. They do as they please, a tyrannical class who knows they have absolutely nothing to fear from a relatively unarmed population. This in turn breeds not respect but absolute contempt and often enough, criminal abuse.
For those of us fighting for our traditional rights, the US 2nd Amendment is a rare light in an ever darkening room. Governments will use the excuse of trying to protect the people from maniacs and crime, but are in reality, it is the bureaucrats protecting their power and position. In all cases where guns are banned, gun crime continues and often increases. As for maniacs, be it nuts with cars (NYC, Chapel Hill NC), swords (Japan), knives (China) or home made bombs (everywhere), insane people strike. They throw acid (Pakistan, UK), they throw fire bombs (France), they attack. What is worse, is, that the best way to stop a maniac is not psychology or jail or “talking to them”, it is a bullet in the head, that is why they are a maniac, because they are incapable of living in reality or stopping themselves.
The excuse that people will start shooting each other is also plain and silly. So it is our politicians saying that our society is full of incapable adolescents who can never be trusted? Then, please explain how we can trust them or the police, who themselves grew up and came from the same culture?
No it is about power and a total power over the people. There is a lot of desire to bad mouth the Tsar, particularly by the Communists, who claim he was a tyrant, and yet under him we were armed and under the progressives disarmed. Do not be fooled by a belief that progressives, leftists hate guns. Oh, no, they do not. What they hate is guns in the hands of those who are not marching in lock step of their ideology. They hate guns in the hands of those who think for themselves and do not obey without question. They hate guns in those whom they have slated for a barrel to the back of the ear.
So, do not fall for the false promises and do not extinguish the light that is left to allow humanity a measure of self respect.

First the Chinese say we should give up our guns. Now the Russians say we should never give up our guns. I wish these communists would get their act together. I thought they were the experts on tyranny. You just don’t know who to believe these days.
Tyranny always feeds on its own.
Here’s a must watch video:

This gun culture makes me laugh. You could buy all the guns in the world, you would never be as secure as if you lived in a small community with people caring about each others. I grew up in a place where you didn’t lock your front door when you got out. Still, nobody had any gun.
I really hope Americans wake up before it’s too late. Guns are made to kill. You don’t need that. Really. Its not about freedom, its not about tyranny, its about your psychological insanity that make you believe that you could be in security outside of a community.
Give me a choice between 500 big guns and eternal ammos and a small village of 500 inhabitants caring about each others, and I choose the second option.
You don’t need guns.
You need community.
Guns insure your freedom. Look around the globe and the countries with the most oppressive gov’ts are the countries that have disarmed their populace. A disarmed America would be ripe for that tyranny to take hold here. This is Jefferson’s famous quote in its entirety, “When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”
Your absolutely correct that a community that is close knit is a successful community, however, when it come to DEFENDING ONESELF, a couple of armed inividuals wanting to cause havoc will do so EASILY when the victims are unarmed….period! Should the armed persons be a trained, coordinated group, you have no chance to prevail. Get real!
This gun culture wouldn’t make you laugh if it saved yours or your family’s arses or even your community’s arses. Community is good and as you spoke but sadly, those communities are rare to many and unattainable to some. Moreover, within a good community, (locked or unlocked doors), firearms are necessary, or can become necessary for various reasons, not least of which is to repress a tyrannical government or group determined to cause you harm, but at the very least to feed the community in times of empty store shelves or to defend oneself from those who do not belong to nor honor it. Having a firearm in your possession is no different than having hammers, either might become a necessary tool as needed.
The right man with the right gun kills a wrong man. Hell more people in car crashes die each year than by guns.
Why not consficate cars first? Wisconsin I am told has the six th largest army in the world by gun ownership inthe U S. Try consficating their guns “OREO”. Armed guards in schools is a bunch of Bullshit. Assault weapon abolishment because of what happened to the innocent adults and kids in Connecticut, without a doubt horrible, but the clown that did the deed didn’t use an assault rifle, he used pistols, they found an assault rifle in the trunk of his car!!!!
Believe me if they come for our guns people are going to die. The people coming to get them and those that want to keep them for damned sakes sure. The bleeding hearts that want to live in a quiet village that for the most part doesn’t exist anywhere on the planet, please feel free to go and do so.
Nice shill job. I live in a small community of less than 300 in very rural Minnesota. We have a defense plan and know who can contribute what as far as weapons go. Town has also talked with the surrounding small towns for mutual defense if needed.
Balz, you need to grow a pair. The world isn’t a hippie commune. LOL Some people just don’t get it.
@ BALZ (one of our newest trolls on SD, that pollutes every thread with the message of the old paradigm of debt n death)
Heck I live in a small community and doors are left unlocked even my keys are in the car but let me tell you nearly everone in the community has a firearm of some kind. Food For Thought
Ditto!
Just got off the phone with my new U.S. “representatives” (that remains to be seen) office and “laid down the law” on guns, amnesty, the banks and Sandy Hook. Maybe he hasn’t been corrupted comletely, YET!
in a country of freedom and democracy … where the rights of people are protected and liberty free speech and self reliance are the norm … you do not need guns …. however as we dont have any of those anymore …. i say buy more guns
