Don't 'Bust the Union' over gun control

Some of you here hay have issues with anarchists over gun control or other groups over other issues, but as long as we face a determined and dangerous corporate enemy we must all agree that disagreements over secondary issues will not stop us from working together on primary issues.
To an anarchist, government is simply not the solution to anything: more laws mean more cops, more prisons, and more ruined lives. Prison is TORTURE.
Consider this: Most anticorporate, anti Big Brother street activists and the "hard left", even if they reject the right to bear arms, dno not spend their time fighting for gun control. Similarily, the Black Panthers, while advocating armed self-defense, didn't buddy up with the NRA to support white-owned crackdowns on crime as an "alternative" to gun control. Therefore, gun control is not an issue that should be allowed to divide and weaken the movement to cripple the anti-globalist, anticorporate, antiwealthy movement and/or its antigovernment component.
We should not hesitate to discuss differences among movement groups on issues, but when we are under fire from the enemy or going on the offensive we must put these differences aside and fight like One Big Union. This is how Custer was hunted down and destroyed at Little Big Horn. Over 6,000 warriors representing nearly a dozen nations came together and fought as one, following the Lakota who took the lead as the war was in their territory. They simply decided to have a traditional gathering and, when the enemy attacked as he inevitably would, to throw it back in his face. With unity for the duration of the event, they smashed the 7th Cav and inflicted a humiliating defeat on the colonizers that wouldn't be matched until Vietnam.
We must think like the bands that came together at Little Big Horn to do battle with the great enemy. We all are from our own nations, but we must not allow our natural differences to break our "One Big Union." I am happy to work with ALL pro-working class, pro Third World, Pro Native,pro animal, and pro freedom activists to break the back of corporate and State power. See you all on April 16th!
