Ah, the majority. You must have a consensus on that position. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

We poll the people to see how often they have sex, what brand of peanut butter they buy, who in Hollywood they find appealing, etc. ad nauseum. I tend to believe people are dishonest or disinterested w/r/t being polled. The proof of that is how radically and quickly polls of identical issues can change virtually overnight. I, on the other had, believe people are basically honest w/r/t most things, including polls, but I'm a liberal. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

It applies to citizens, not aliens. Wrong. It applies to anyone under jurisdiction here. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

The only one to blame is the Seung-hui Cho. Thats something you liberal seems to not understand, people are responsible for their own actions. Nope. Hillary is to blame. She a liberal QED she did it. -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

If you remove that easy access, then they might have a chance to get help before 33 people die needlessly. Why don't you tell us it's "in the Constitution" again if it makes you feel better. Easy access to handguns is an American fact of life--now and forever. Do People thought the same thing about slavery... -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

This country was founded and has prospered because of non-natives. I guess being a legal alien since he was five doesn't count for much in your book. Perhaps he should have been deported. Not deported but the question rises as to why, at the age of 23, he had not declred citzenship or the intent of taking citizenship. Most resident aliens can't wait for their 7 years to be up so they can become a citizen. If you have no intention of becoming a citizen, then why have permanent resident status unless you're a representative of a foreign country? I am not speaking here about visas for people who come here with a specific purpose for a specific time. They come and they go and that's all right. I don't care if non-citizens go to our colleges and universities as long as they take what they learned back to improve their own nations. I do take issue with people that come here to drink from our well and then spit in it when they're finished. |
