A bunch of Christian zealots trying to impose their morality on others, isn’t that cute?

They may be zealots, but probably have very little to do with Christianity. I am a Christian, and I say, if they want my guns, well, you know the rest of the story.

So we have decided to let children run things? The same group that thinks eating Tide pods is cool. The same group that can’t put down cell phones long enough to eat dinner or drive their cars. This should turn out well.

Oregon voters in the portland and salem ‘metropolitan’ areas, being overwhelmingly fanatical liberal wing nuts tend to tilt all legislation far left.

We voters in the rural area have virtually no voting power.

Just need a counter ban to ban the religious group.

E.g 2nd Amd guarantees firearms - proposal to ban specific firearms.

1st Amd guarantees religious freedom - proposal to ban specific chruches.

Everybody who is signed on to this Initiative needs to be drug into court and charged in a class action suit for a civil rights violation of the 2nd amendment. Concentrating on the “Shall Not Be Infringed” clause.

>>No I do not think the OKC bombing is same as Lexington and Concord and I am not a supporter of that terrorist act...just to be clear)

This is why the people here who longingly talk about a need for CW2 are fully not ready for it.

What church is this? Not clear from the article, that only mentions an ‘interfaith’ group. Doesn’t sound like a Christian Church to me.

Your statement has me confused...do yo7 equate blowing up children in the Murrah bldg with battling the Brits who were trying to grab the militia’s arms?

The same is true in California, 1/3 of the State dictates to the 2/3. It helps that the 144% voters vs the 100% registered to vote all reside in the costal cities.
