Second amendment protection against tyranny is a bit of wisdom I guess a budding capitalist society like China has yet to learn. I guess the Chinese think their government is going to remain pure for all eternity.


Remain Pure?

WTH?

What have you been smoking? Have you bothered to read about their Governments history of how they have treated their own Citizens?

Cultural Revolution. Read about it...


For such an "ancient" society, you would figure they would know by now about the tendency of power to corrupt people.


Headsup, They know all about it. They have lived through it and under it for a while now. Notice they do not have the right to bear arms.

That should have given you your first clue.

China can go jump in a lake.

Let me pose one question here. Does the Chinese government have guns? We are to trust the government with guns over the people? The Chinese government is the one violating the human rights of its citizenry.

www.examiner.com

“The United States prioritizes the right to keep and bear arms over the protection of citizens' lives and personal security and exercises lax firearm possession control, causing rampant gun ownership,” the report claims. “The U.S. people hold between 35 percent and 50 percent of the world' s civilian-owned guns, with every 100 people having 90 guns [and] 47 percent of American adults reported that they had a gun.”

What are they going to do about it? Take it to the UN?

Other cultures just do not understand the depth of the importance of the Second Amendment to the American citizenry. That's why I think Obama doesn't truly "get it" and would sell us down the river to appease some UN Treaty negotiation. Don't even think about it.

Yea, it was mostly sarcasm. You don't need to write a report on it.

I am cool with Chinas opinion of my guns.
Good thing is.... If anyone does not like my guns, they are free to move outside the US.
Just about 2 miles should make them absolutely safe from me.

China should keep to their business, I'll keep to mine.

en.wikipedia.org... useing and counting that i would say that they have somewhere between 10-12 million type 56's available unless they export more then i had assumed but that is just one type of gun and wouldnt even touch their side arms industry

LMAO!!! And in the words of Dave Chappelle (As US president): "UN, you get problem with that. You know what you should do. You should sanction me. Sanction me with your army. Oh! wait a minute! You don't have an army! So I guess that means you need to STFU! That's what would I do if I don't have an army, I would S-T-F-U. (leans towards microphones on the podium) Shut. The. F. UP!. That's right! Kofi Annan, I ain't takin' orders from an African. You might speak sixteen languages, but you gonna need them when you in Times Square selling fake hats."

Whatever China...China, i think you shoud STFU!!!

Seems they are a bit upset that they can never take the US from the people. It`s called Freedom and something they or no one else will just take from us. Not even our own Government.

I find it funny how this comes out right after the case of them having a backdoor into our military electronics. Bet they can`t stop my firing pin from slamming home. Come on over and try.
