    Special Forces statement on gun control.

    Yes I know these gun control things are getting old but I recently read this and it is a very well written statement.

    Haha this whole thing is just stupid... There shouldnt be a gun ban, maybe a restriction to how many guns in a house hold and how many people in a state (With a good reputation, no history of crimes)

    That would be just as ineffective.

    Right saying Canada is the greatest country (not to mention it's not meant to be serious) in a custom title feature on a gaming forum is the same as what this guy did here...

    The guy who wrote the letter is clearly trying to be serious with this. And for him to say that "without a doubt" and "history of mankind", sounds foolish and the letter loses all credibility for me. Actually I stopped reading it all together after that. If he had said the history of the States or something that would have been fine. But to force his opinion on the entire "history of mankind" is just complete bullshit. Also, saying "without a doubt", which is pretty belittling to those readers who don't agree with him, makes me dislike the writer and stop reading.

    As they are responsible for defending the Constitution, I would expect them to say that it is the most important document in mankind. You should give them credit since they risk their lives to do so.
    And if the music stops
    There's only the sound of the rain
    All the hope and glory
    All the sacrifice in vain
    And if love remains
    Though everything is lost
    We will pay the price
    But we will not count the cost

    But I honestly cannot think of a better historical document. There are ones that come close; The 95 Thesis, The Magna Carta, Hammurabi's Code, but none of them reach the level of significance of the U.S. Constitution. It guarantees rights that only years before were completely conditional based on a territory's loyalty, and does it more eloquently and absolutely than any other I know. For Americans, our Constitution is more than just a fancy piece of paper, It's the promise that our lives are our own, and that any government exists only because we allow it. It's more important than any person, any party, or even any god. I'm no expert on Canadian politics, but surely you must have something you hold as dearly. The people behind this letter are our finest soldiers who are expected, above all else, to uphold and defend the Constition with their lives, and you dismissed their arguement purely for their patriotism. Having a strong opinion on something isn't 'forcing' it on anyone, and it can't be forced on you, regardless of whether you're American or not.

    You would've seen a similar explaination for these men's stance if you just read a little further into the same damn paragraph;

    Our Constitution established a system of governance that preserves, protects, and holds sacrosanct the individual rights and primacy of the governed as well as providing for the explicit protection of the governed from governmental tyranny and/or oppression. We have witnessed the insidious and iniquitous effects of tyranny and oppression on people all over the world. We and our forebears have embodied and personified our organizational motto, De Oppresso Liber [To Free the Oppressed], for more than a half century as we have fought, shed blood, and died in the pursuit of freedom for the oppressed.
