Does he want us to tattoo little targets on the best places to hit us.

It's like Mason said to Dixon, "You gotta' draw the line somewhere".

“Look. It’s time. Mexico wants California. Let them have it.”

Why? Look at our history. We can dust off the 1867 Reconstruction Act. Reconstruction allows us to send in a military governor to take over California. The military governor has the congressional power to fire the governor, the California state legislature and ban the California congressional delegation from taking their seats in Congress.

We gotta think outa the box and use legal tools that have proven effective in the past.

***“We’re talking about body armor that is designed for warfare, designed to protect against law enforcement ammunitions.” ***

Time to dig up my stash of black tipped ammo.

That was 30 years ago or so. LAPD has been “up gunned” since that mess.

After Newtown, the ahole sheriff of poverty-stricken Washington County, Maine, equated the citizen ownership of semi-automatic rifles to citizens owning nukes.

[MtnClimber]

I would like a law that prohibited politicians from having locks on their doors.

[BunnySlippers]

It wasn’t thirty years ago.

[BunnySlippers]

Not true.

First, it was February 1997, 17 years ago ... not close to 30.

And we just recently had another incident.

[ClearCase_guy]

The police should be able to protect themselves from criminals.

I won't argue that point.

But the topic is whether law-abiding citizens should be able to protect themselves.

Do you have a problem with that? Do you want to take body armor away? I mean, if protection is such an important concept ...

[ExCTCitizen]

If body armor are outlawed, only outlaws will have body armor.

[BunnySlippers]

No, I do not want to take body armor away.

[Lazamataz]

Why do politicians have doors to begin with? What are they hiding? Besides, cops can always be called if someone walks through the archway.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

COME AND TAKE IT!

[ExCTCitizen]

'assuming Honda can even get it to a vote"

California allows AUTOMOBILES to vote? :-)

[TaMoDee]

Time goes by too fast! (I watched it on TV!)

[5th MEB]

I don’t have a problem with the police protecting them selves from the bad guys, but don’t I have the same right to protect myself?

[5th MEB]

Oh; just to remind you of the facts, California has had only one incident of this type of fire fight in it’s history, the Hollywood shoot out.

[kiryandil]

I can not think of any reason why law enforcement should be allowed to have any equipment that is forbidden to a regular citizen.

So they don't have any trouble murdering you when they want to?
