That statement you made about being for gun control because of your fear of muslims with machine guns seems pretty much emotion-based to me.

Direct quote, please. Don't twist my words.

I'll let you guys in on a little secret... I kind of like the National Firearms Act of 1934 and I'm not wholly opposed to the Gun Control Act of 1968. I like the fact that hoops must be jumped to purchase a fully-automatic weapon. I like the fact that if you try to purchase an arsenal capable of supplying a small army, people at the federal level will take interested notice. This is partly due to the fact that I don't trust Muslims, yet they are still entitled to the full range of Constitutional rights, and if a group of young, devoutly religious male Muslim Americans started accumulating machine guns, I'd want questions asked. I think you would too.

Your reply #153.

There's not a lot of reason there except maybe "I fear muslims", but your desire for "hoops" - gun control - is based on that fear, an emotion.

I will not reply to you again. Do not talk to me again.
