Sure, come back and have some more.

You want a few more state legislators from your party hitting the unemployment line, obviously.

I recently observed a gun control debate that went like this:

"Nobody is going to take your damned guns away from you, but a BACKGROUND CHECK will mean that less guns will get into the hands of people who SHOULD NOT HAVE THEM. Right now, you're not even required to show ID in some places to get a gun thanks to the 'gun show loophole'. What's so UNREASONABLE about background checks?!"

"What do you think a 'background check' really consists of? There's some magical oracle of information where we can query whether a person is a lunatic or not? Or a criminal? You have states handing out driver's licenses to illegal aliens who present no other form of ID and get an official driver's license just by signing another document where they swear they are who they say they are. Do you think an 'identity loophole' like that would make a 'background check' more or less valid than a US Military 'Secret' security clearance like the Navy Yard shooter had?"

"Okay, then just forget the whole thing. If background checks won't work, we just need to go door to door sweeping up all the guns."

"You go out to your politicians and demand that. I'll even handcraft you a protest sign which calls for precisely that."

How much are we going to take people? They waive anti-terrorist laws so they can give guns to TERRORISTS and then disarm AMERICANS..... Are we just going to lie down and listen to the gulag door slam??????
