Repeal all gun laws Part IV: "Some psychiatrists have described gun control as a betrayal of an underlying neurosis; there's even a name for it: Hoplophobia. But I see gun control as a much larger dynamic with broader implications for the nation beyond any single issue. Can liberalism and conservatism be compared psychologically so easily? Yes, it can. When one examines any political or even personal issue, one must come to the examination with a good faith willingness to understand and cooperate. On the other hand, Marie Parente said that when you sit down to negotiate what you already have, you lose. We've sat down and lost a lot. And in good faith. In short, poor values and personal anxiety will play a large part in cooperation or non-cooperation. Or in takings. Can an anxious person set aside his anxiety for the good of the country? Or does the person come to the table with an anger that makes him believe that crushing people is necessary for the country? Karl Marx was such an impaired person who believed that crushing peoples' rights was good for them-inthe end, an end to be generations away. He actually believed that desire, ambition, want and motivation - which he portrayed as greed and other spin - could be eliminated after a few generations of deprivation. And with force, when the people didn't agree with his mad plan. [Which involved confiscation of weapons so they'd hold still for the treatment.] Only an angry neurotic can believe this. Liberals believe that guns have to be taken for our own good, everybody's own good - yet only the officials will need them? One-sided force is not good when only officials have all the force. Liberty enthusiasts are courageous, and anti-gun people are not."
