You don't agree with the 2nd Amendment. You're anti-gun. Sorry.
And by the way, do you even know what an "assault weapon" is?
I have to laugh....Third party my fanny. You are a hard bitten realist. You're gonna vote for some third party no name? I doubt it. That's how we got the first Clinton.
Know what I think?...I think you've painted yourself into a verbal ideological corner and are unwilling to admit you will vote for whoever the GOP nominates.
yep.... I surely do...I surely do...
Do me a favor, click on my screen name below this post, go to my "Comments From Fans" section of my profile page, read them, and then get back to me if you still think that I'm a hard-bitten realist. I must say that this is the first time I've been accused of that. Most people think that I'm a whacked-out libertarian screwball.
No...I don't believe in your particular interpretation of the 2nd Amendment, JMC. You read was you want to see and believe what you wish to believe regardless of the Constitution, the founders, or original intent.
...except for those things which you're not pro-liberty on.
FWIW: I own two AWs, a SOS, and am eyeing a MG. All legal (some requiring major hoops to jump thru) - all which you are "against".
Your brand of conservatism appears coercive and anti-liberty to me.
So you have no problem with banning semi-autos with detachable magazines? Why? How are they any more dangerous than some weapons that are not considered "assault weapons"?
Also, did you know that certain facets of the AWB actually made firing weapons LESS safe for smaller individuals.
Heh... he'd better stay out of my gun cabinet then as well. Poor thing would have a heart attack... And yes, for any Feebies listening in, all of my stuff is currently legal. ;-)
I have read the Federalist Papers. The founders intended for the public to have unrestricted access to any arm that might be carried by an infantry soldier of the given era. If you'd like to try and prove me wrong on this, go right ahead.
Let me put it another way. Hypothetically, if when the Texas primary comes around and I have a choice between a Ronald Reagan clone who clearly has no chance of winning, and Guiliani, Romney, and McCain, I will not vote for the Ronald Reagan clone, but for the one who I think has the best chance of beating McCain.
And that's because I think McCain would be the most destructive Republican President in US history.
Sometimes the person I vote for is really a vote to stop someone I fear more.
Is that why you are so excited to put a hate-crime loving, gun hating, zealous ex-prosecutor in charge of this nation's law enforcement machinery? Because you value liberty? What liberty is that? The liberty to agree with Rudy Giuliani?
Giuliani is a liberty-undermining social liberal joke without a punchline. As long as the shallow-minded are there to applaud, he'll keep bowing.
Well...I can see you are desirous of dragging me into one of those endless tautological technical debates filled with endless variant minutiae. No thanks. It just stinks of overcompensation. Understand?
I'LL pass... I'll just chat with bunny slippers and that lady from Idaho. Trout as I recall.. cutthroat...Damn...wanna do that.
Would you mind responding to this guy's reply #567? I'm literally almost to the point of bashing my head against my desk. Thank God Happy Hour is less than an hour away.
Yep....but Giuliani ain't as bad as Hillary. Which is exactly why you'll vote for him when the time comes to choose between them. Nuff said eh,pal?
That's a fair point, though I'd argue that McCain could not be as destructive as LBJ no matter how hard he tried. I'm just seeing a lot of people dissing on Hunter while not even mentioning McCain.
-I have read the Federalist Papers.-
Did you now?...We'll that is wonderful ,JMC. You must be proud as all get out aren't you?
Basic, God-given civil rights are not "minutiae". I also notice that you cannot provide me with evidence that any of the founding fathers wished to restrict access to firearms.
Well, yeah. Understanding the philosophies behind this unique form of government is something one should take pride in.
