don't have time to read the full article but i read the first post. were all those grammatical errors in the article?

anyway, i don't see the UN as the driving force in US gun-policy. especially if fred is in the whitehouse.

now, controlling ILLEGAL firearms is in everyone's interest. even 2A proponents such as myself. we need to address where criminals get their guns.

but in a free society of so many people, you have to enforce the law in a framework that attempts to reduce crime while protecting constitutionally afforded rights. it's tough, but it's the only way.

So you are for the framework which will enable the gun-grabbers to rob me of my 2nd amendment right? Kind of oil and water, isn’t it?

Then you can never say, 'I didn't know'.

Sorry, I forgot to ask, what part of the 2nd amendment don’t you understand?

At first glance, this seems difficult. Upon second glance, you'll realize that armed criminals and armed up-right citizens is, at the very least, a wash. Better still, we (the up-standing) out weigh the criminal element by a factor of let's say, ten (that's including our esteemed Washington representatives).

We'll turn this corner when Granny Gets Her Gun and no sooner. The good 'ole days will return the day we return fire. (Tag-your it)
