Indeed, the gun is a phallic symbol.

Typical liberal. Everything is a symbol of a sex organ to them.

I'll bet you the price of a new AR and a case of ammo Dr. Lieberman has never cured a single patient.

Even more simply put, they know The Messiah is going to illegally and unconstitutionally confiscate their firearms.

Wait a second...didn't Connecticut citizens VOTED for Obama???

Ugh. Another example of a mindless generalization.

The whole state of Connecticut didn't "VOTED for Obama". 620,000 people in Connecticut voted for McCain. 49,000 people in Connecticut have bought new guns this year.

Let me guess, you spell California with a "K" don't you?

“Connecticut citizens...you help ELECT that MARXIST, so please return the guns to your neighborhood gun shop - (or if you want to help spread the wealth, to your neighborhood CRIMINAL!!)”

There is something seriously wrong with this ignorant statement.

If you have a detachable mag and pistol grip = no collapsable stock.

My apologies for going off. It’s been a stressful couple of weeks and I guess I’m getting testy.

Anybody here in CT have a Bushmaster?

You never know. That's the power and the beauty. Let's keep it that way.

Yes, bird shot. I load my Maverick 88 20 gauge pump home defense shotgun with #5 long range turkey shot. Nice tight pattern at 25 feet, too, movin’ at 1350 fps comning out of the muzzle, even with the 18 1/2 inch cut off barrel.
