Re: Pro-gun article
This is so true. I have known too many people in my life who only respected someone who where either physically stronger or in a position of power over them. These people crawled over steeped on and disrespected anyone they could if there were no repercussions.

Re: Pro-gun article
Interesting that very intelligent people would poll this way:
Triple Nine Society Political Survey - Gun Control Triple Nine Society Opinion Survey 1. Strong support for gun ownership by citizens; 40.4% 23 2. Keep present laws, but no further restrictions; 14.0% 8 3. Protect the right to bear arms, add more restrictions; 21.1% 12 4. Register firearms 21.1% 12 5. Outlaw the private ownership of firearms 3.5% 2 |

Guns, knives. It doesn't matter. People are going to do bad regardless. It's why restricting does nothing.

Re: Pro-gun article
They don't want people having automatic weapons but it's ok for police to have this shit.

Not according to your boy O.
So let's give the government all the power/weapons and trust them fully. LOL That's how people are enslaved.

Re: Pro-gun article
i admit, this is pretty good but i think there is a clear distinction in gun rights.
Most people like myself think it is perfectly fine to own guns and keep them safely secured in your home, go hunting or (if properly licensed and cleared) have a concealed weapon permit. Most people like myself do not think it is okay for random guys to walk around walmart with a ar-15 while they "pretend" shop for toilet paper .... or have a handgun by their side at a bar n grill .. or have a loaded hang gun in your car while your loaded on alcohol .. or be able to shoot and kill someone bc you started a fist fight and are losing the fist fight ... (by "most people" I am guessing and assuming and there is no study at the present time that concludes that I represent "most people") the NRA would have a lot more supporters if they supported "reasonable" restrictions on 2A rights .... like their own strict constructionist Scalia has opined. |

I'd agree, but at some point the more reasonable people will be shouted down by the irrational, loud minority. It happens all the time. The lowest common denominator is the benchmark these days. |
