"I agree in our unalienable right to keep and bear arms, but I also support wait periods, background checks and forbidding the sale of machine guns.

Lets see -

Background checks- see if you were crazy

wait period - in case you just went crazy

machine guns - limit damage in case you may go crazy

One based on what you ARE guilty of

One based on what you may be thinking of

One based on what you might do someday even though you get passed the others

I don't believe that MY freedom is based on supressing what other people MIGHT do.

And I respect your views, probably more than you respect mine.

However, if someone supports background checks, waiting periods and not defining the 2cnd Amendment to include any and all types of firearms... is that person not a true Republican in your opinion?
