I don’t think that you are just interpreting his remarks, but twisting and misconstruing them to create your straw man argument.

He was referring to earlier times when we could purchase firearms over the counter and even over the phone without the nonsense of a background check. We have never been able to buy a suitcase nuke at the retail level.*

*If you have the right connections and enough money, I’ll get you one wholesale though. LOL

You can still use mail order and phone calls to get firearms. It just has to be sent to a local FFL to complete the transaction. That and the background check prevents putzes from buying them in that legit market. If you're so enthrawled with the good old days with no bothersome limits on the way things are done, how come your not complaining about the loss of right to pull yer pants down and take a dump anywhere you see fit to?

I’m not twisting anything. Look at the arguements from frepers William Tell and tpaine. They are arguing all out that I am a Brady Bill gun grabber because I don’t think themonuclear explosives and fighter jets equipped with 2000lb bombs are protected for individual ownership in the constitution.

I would think that the author would agree with me (maybeeee) but he is still nutty in his writing.
