Liberties Eroded in Disarmed England, Says Editorial

The Washington Times writes:

To see how a disarmed people are treated, one need look no further than Great Britain. There, the Conservative government announced on Tuesday it would begin the process of limiting the 1,300 reasons that local and national officials can cite as an excuse to intrude on private property — often without a warrant. For example, if an individual fails to pay a few parking tickets or speed-camera notices, a bailiff can be dispatched to a home, walk inside and grab a television set, computer or other valuables to satisfy the alleged debt.

Unlearn the Propaganda!

    It shouldn’t need to be said but I will say it anyway – A disarmed
    people are an enslaved people. Nothing scares the Fascisti more than the prospect of armed resistance by the citizenry. Give that up and you are on “The Road to Serfdom”.

    If some entitled driven fascist from American Traffic Solutions breaks in violating our 4th amendment, there is no doubt we will absolutely deliver on the 2nd amendment.
