Since it has virtually no affect

That is typical northeastern thinking.
People out west are not interested in driving a hundred miles with
their neighbor to an FFL just so he can sell him his shotgun.

We are trying to impose a failed solution to urban crime on people who
do not have that crime problem.
We might as well install parking meters in the Everglades to fix
parking problems in downtown Boston.


If 90 percent of the US population favor universal background checks
for gun purchases, it's certainly not restricted to "northeastern
thinking". I thought that in our system of government, majority rules.

When you are making up statistics, you can say pretty much anything
can't you. It was less than 40% tonight when our TV station did a poll
and the snowbirds are here so it is not just "Florida rednecks"


BTW who ever said "majority rules"?

Are you ready to take a vote on school busing or gay marriage?
