Article from Town Hall by Beth Baumann.
In fact, Thomas Jefferson once wrote that “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
It’s a quote that former Vice President Joe Biden loves to implement before stomping all over Americans’ desires to own firearms for self-protection or, Heaven forbid, a tyrannical government.
“Those who say ‘the tree of liberty is watered with the blood of patriots’–  a great line. Well, guess what? The fact is if you’re going to take on the government you need an F-15 with Hellfire missiles. There is no way an AK-47 is going to take care of you if you’re worried about the government knocking down your door,” Biden told a group of supporters in New Hampshire on Sunday. “And so, it’s bizarre. We never said you could own any weapon at all from the beginning. You can’t own a machine gun. You can’t own a bazooka. You can’t own an M1 tank, no matter how much money you have. You can limit the kind of weapons that can be owned.”
“I think – and by the way, all the work I’ve done on this, including in [the Obama] administration – I now have over 58 percent of the NRA members acknowledging you can’t own an assault weapon,” he said. “There’s no need for it. You can’t have, you can’t have a magazine that has more than 10 rounds in it.”

!st, WHY is it so difficult to get to the comments section? Now, what was I going to say? Oh, yes, I wish the evil thoughts of the freedom destroyers would choke them to death – here on earth instead of at God’s Judgment Throne.
Ok. Biden boy…..One Can own cannon, artillery and yes, even a tank…..they are all NFA items just like a machine gun…….but sure, machine guns made after May 1986 have been declared illegal to own. But, should YOU start a war, all of these gun laws are gone. We don’t need F-15s or even F-16s….but, they need pilots, ground crews, technicians, fuel and spare parts to keep them in the air. Oh….and the families of those pilots and technicians will be fair game once the war starts. The trucks that carry the fuel and those spare parts can be destroyed and disrupted, weapons acquired with veterans behind them who still know how to operate them. You think 2 dimensionally about how this will be fought. This will be a partisan war. YOU, the politicians will be the targets, but you will gladly sacrifice the lives of many police and service members…AND THEIR FAMILIES to get your way…to be able to have your total control over us. You stupid, incompetent “man”. All we can say is, “Try Us”….just “Try US”.
Yep!! Further… even Joe wasn’t there “from the beginning” and, before the 1920s (well after the beginning) there were NO restrictions. So, Joe is either hallucinating (that he was there in 1787) or just lying again. MOLON LABE!! Semper Fi!!
