“You are really into suspension of US Constitutional rights on these extremely specious grounds.”

You guys give up that battle when it came to rights of people to smoke cigarettes. Where were you guys? Probably on the side of the non-smokers, if I had to wager money. If not, I certainly didn’t hear jack from you then.

And, as usual, you would be wrong. A true constitutional conservative is consistent in application of their philosophy. I have never been a smoker but have always defended the rights of smokers, including rejection of the second-hand smoke scam. I have also never owned a gun but I’m certainly grateful for those who do.

You really need to face the fact that you’ve allowed yourself to be worked up into an irrational frenzy. I realize it may be embarrassing to own your gullibility and the temptation to just keep digging your hole rather than admit it is quite powerful. Witness your giddy joy at the vision of your fellow citizens marched off in handcuffs because they don’t agree with you. But in the end you will find yourself at peace if you just let it go. Live your life as you see fit and give others the respect to do the same.

I was on the side of smokers, not yet here then.
