okay.. not an argument for socialism, but an argument against the coming dictatorship. I have no idea where Romney was proposing a tyranny, but the government is becoming tyrannical and having a person propose a smaller federal government with less power is always preferred.
You can USE UPPERCASE TEXT all you want and use whatever logical pretzels you desire but the fact still remains that if we were to have elected Romney instead of allowing Obama to remain in office, we would not be discussing gun confiscation, but tax policy and economic growth which was my original statement.
I happen to agree about the rules garbage at the RNC but it was what it was and we had two logical choices and some decided that Obama was better. I disagree that Romney was a socialist, he wasn’t, but Obama ran as one (as well as a gun banner) and we had a choice. Now we no longer have that choice.
I'm a Constitutionalist and, out of respect for my father's wishes, abstained from testing the "law" -- you see, in NM the State Constitution specifically prohibits any law abridging the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense; even barring the counties and municipalities from regulating "in any way" and incident of the right to keep and bear arms -- by taking a firearm with me into the city's courthouse.
Some people would say it is a stupid thing to do; most people do not realize that the police (and security) have "no affirmative obligation to provide for a particular private citizen's safety." (According to several US Supreme Court rulings. -- and did you know that you may be compelled, even if not accused of a crime, to be present in a courthouse: this is called jury duty. -- If then, there is no guarantee for the juror's safety, it is obvious that disarming the juror is immoral.
And there are many "laws", rules, regulations like this.
Do you oppose, and I mean more than just complaining or grumbling, them?
