I am a member of the NRA, they fight to protect our rights, not murder babies and foster racists no matter how much I see that form the left. I am OK with enhanced background checks, fixing the ones that already exist. I'm even OK with Red Flag laws BUT I require an acceptable and honest adherence to Due Process, sunset clauses, and rigorous and approved guidelines that clearly states qualification and disqualification. I won't negotiate away my right to self defense (nor yours for that matter) to political movements that want to incrementally take away my rights.

Left: "We don't want to take away your rights, we won't confiscate your guns. You can hunt or target practice."

Also Left: "We require that you disassemble your firearms, store them broken down into pieces, in separate locations from ammunition, locked in other storage containers, and you can't have your (locked) ammunition in the same location as your (locked) firearm while transporting."

New rules are constantly being added and proposed to nullify previous background checks.

To which I asked why universal background checks and closing show and private sale loopholes would affect anyone’s ability to legally purchase legal arms under the 2A. So how does he or anyone win that very pointed question, they can’t unless they need those loopholes to secure those arms. So RR and others spew the usual NRA talking points, it’s an old argument, but explain to me the harm done by the background checks and closing loopholes?

Red Flag laws sound good until you get in the weeds on them.

Fortunately for you, the digital and modern medium of your Freedom of Speech is enabling the discussion over the modern interpretation of the musket.

When the fair solution involves stable families then the answer has nothing to do with greed. No amount of handouts will repair the epidemic of broken households which lack role models. If you call it fair to take something away that somebody earned legally,only to hand it out to whom you consider less fortunate then you have defined unfairness. Ours is not a perfect world so get used to it and make the best of it.

Yes that's how it works ... when you sit on your hands and your answer is always no ... your predictions of consfcation will be of your own making

funny republicans do it with abortion all the time there is no compromise just outright ban on a personal choice but they dont see it in the constitution.. it's a different matter altogether

"Do what we say or we'll ban you"

Fix existing laws...

"Do what we say or we'll ban you"

Let's look at the data on how firearms are used (Violence, Gangs, Suicides - though all are down)

"Do what we say or we'll ban you, and it will be your fault"

It is not in the Constitution, therefore Congress gets to pass laws at the Fedederal level and states pass laws at the state level. Courts decide whether or not it fits in the Consitution.

The 2A *IS* in the Constitution.

BULLCRAP! One is a right, the other is a moral obligation or a choice up to the point of murder. The left doesn't seem to favor responsibility these days, too busy trying to find utopia


Compromise for the Left is their way to confiscation without calling it that, but make no mistake, that is their goal.

We've seen it so many times. The leftists anti-gunners know how to "compromise" for just half the pie... each and every time... until they own the whole pie!


If we are fed up with that crap, how can you lay the blame on us for fighting against it? that is a big GFY

By all means point out any incorrect interpretation I've presented.

You have no issues with me owning a gun just as long as it is one you approve of, and only one , maybe two if they are small and not too much ammo, and if I don't like those decrees I will find out that you really mean business, I'll be lucky if my house isn't burned down with me and my family in it when your proxy's come and take what you think I shouldn't have . . .

And that's EXACTLY the kind of crap that makes it clear you and your ilk are not honest and above board. You can't even maintain continuity and keep your reply attached to what I wrote.

In typical fashion, you can't do anything without some degree of misdirection, misrepresentation or duplicitousness.

My "disdain for the Constitution" statement was a specific response to your "NRA talking points" BS.

That you can't address the Constitutional / legal argument leaves you with the weak "NRA talking points" put-down. You have no interest in ever learning about what you detest because you desire to see the Constitution destroyed and to no longer be a hurdle to your leftist agenda.

Yes, your dismissive "NRA talking points" insult screams of your disdain for the Constitution; you refuse to engage in a discussion of a topic that disgusts you because discussing the Constitution competently would require some respect for it and what it represents.

Yeah, us demanding that government abide by the Constitution and warning about unconstitutional overstepping of authority, will force government to finally prove all our warnings were correct.

And you will be cheering . . .

I enjoy going at any gun rights /abortion rights comparison (because abortion rights depend on gun rights) and I know you think you had a point in there somewhere, but that statement was completely incoherent.
