Sigh. It sounds reasonable even if John Kerry has an atomic bomb
in
his
basement.
So is it alright for Kerry to have an assault weapon since he is
breaking the law. Would you want a law breaker having access to
the
A-Bomb, as long as he is your man, bought and paid for?
I'm saying it is not all right! Geezus you can be thick. Kerry is
not
"my
man" in the least. Where'd you get that crazy idea?
Different music being piped than in Nov, I guess I need to learn
some
different dance steps to keep up with you!
Geezus Tinkerntom, when the hell did I say Kerry was "my man" or
anything
like that?
Well you sure did not want Bush, who would be your alternative?
If he's got illegal
weapons, string him up by the balls, go for it. And string Bush up
next to
him for invading a country and killing people on false pretenses.
As far as Kerry being strung up, he has paid the price for his
duplicity!
Fine.
President Bush is still operating within the scope of his
autority, no false pretenses that I can indite him on.
And if you tried, the republicans on the supreme court would turn you
down
anyway. LOL.
You ask if I am one of these gun nuts too? Please define your
label,
which you seem to be willing to stick on everyone and anyone who
doesn't agree with you. Personally I have come to prefer
dispensing
aspirin. Tnt
A gun nut...someone who thinks everyone should have a gun and then
the world
would be safer. Someone who thinks the term "assault rifle" is
some
"liberal" nonsense contrived to give the FBI the opportunity to
invade
everyone's homes and steal their guns so "the government" can take
over.
Y'know, Tinkerntom...gun nuts.
Gun nut, I guess your definition again doesn't fit me.
Good.
I would not want
everyone to have a gun, though I believe that if they are of sound
mind, that they should be able to possess a gun if they desire.
Everyone who owns a gun now thinks they are of sound mind,
Tinkerntom. And
yet more than 30000 Americans will die this year. And next year. As
they
have for decades.
And many more will die of auto accidents. Do I hear a call to ban
autos?
The
term "assault weapon" as applied by liberals is only looney if they
use
it to demonize all firearms
If they wanted to demonize all firearms it would be foolish to create
the
special category of assault weapons.
So do you not have problems with private ownership of other types of
firearms, for example a Browning semi-auto Deer rifle, with scope,
30-06? Or Winchester 30-30 lever action? or Winchester Mod 12 shotgun?
or a Weatherby Mark IV .460?
which infact actually demonstates their
underlying ideology, and not any particular awareness of the
function,
limit, and value of particular weapons.
Ironically, if the FBI is using the nonsense to invade peoples
homes,
confiscating their weapons, the liberal is more than likely a
typical
target of the FBI, in that historically they have had more problems
with the FBI than conservatives. That might be a good reason for
liberals to reframe from gun ownership. Leave it to us who know how
to
handle them safely. The FBI I mean! Tnt
Tinkerntom, do you own a gun? I really really really hope not.
Why would you really, really hope that I don't own a firearm? I have
never shot in anger, of even self defense. I was on a shotgun team in
highschool, and did not do to badly in trap. Then in college, a
competetive rifle team, and have never shot anyone even accidentally,
or had a firearm discharge in a hazardous fashion. I think that I have
always handled them in a demonstatably safe fashion, and have taught
other to do so as well. There have been no accidents with any of my
students. So what was your point? That because I get on this forum and
present an opposing view point to what you advocate, that I should not
have a firearm. Who made you the final arbiter of our Constitution?
That is rather presumptious of you is it not? If having an opposing
view point to you is the main criteria for determining our exercise of
our rights, I would say that you are a greater danger to our
Constitution than any gun nut! TnT
