I would be, but I hear the crap the media is putting out, listen to the poll results, etc., and it just doesn't flange up with people I talk with. Maybe it is that this whole area is Conservative, but I have only run across two people who admitted voting for Obama in those 7 years, and the vast majority will spontaneously complain about the Government in general and Obama in particular.
Like the islamists, the gun-grabber’s ultimate goal is genocide. You must always keep that in mind when discussing “gun control.” They want to be able to kill you without their safety being threatened. Period, end of sentence, that’s really all there is to it.
Is that piece of crap Pete “Adolf” Shields still alive?
“The fact remains that any outright attempt to take the arms from tens of millions of American gun owners would almost certainly result in a second Civil War.”
Frankly, I have been sick of the arguments for quite some time. Let there be a damn War.
To the libs: F—k you.
Load every mag. Make sure it’s at the ready. Let them come and take em’
Is the bottom phrase Greek for “(screw you)”?

Folks, 2016 is coming, get out and VOTE!
“Then they just degenerate into acting like children having a temper tantrum.”
But they still think they won the argument, even when they need their diaper changed.
I would have done that, but I don’t know how. When it come to computers I’m like a monkey doing a math problem.
In return, will do some “civil disobedience”.
The gun ban crowd hasn’t got the first clue about what would happen to them if there was an attempt at gun confiscation. Not one because the carnage would make the German/Soviet slugfest of 1941-1945 look like two kids playing in a sandbox.
Rough estimates place the number of guns in this country at 300 million when Obama took office, and there have been purchases of new guns of (again, roughly speaking) about 1 million per month since then. Doing the math for those of you who dont wish to, that means that right now there are something like 380 million guns in this country, owned by probably 100 million 110 million citizens. Folks here are quite happy to throw around a figure of 3% for the number dedicated enough to true liberty that theyd take up arms against a dictatorial regime, but lets assume that this figure is too generous, that it is only 1/2 of 1%. OK, that means that there would be roughly 500,000 very dedicated, very well equipped and trained people who would literally be gunning for anyone opposed to their liberties and those of their families. If only 1 in 10 of those people shot 1 cop, 1 anti-gun professor, 1 anti-gun media type, or 1 uber-Leftist acquaintance per month, thatd be 50,000 dead PER MONTH. Thats roughly one Vietnam per month, and one Civil War per year. Note that these are EXTREMELY conservative figures if 1% resisted (1 million), and 1 in 5 shot someone each month, then you have 200,000 dead/month, and nearly 2.5 million per year. No army in history has withstood those kinds of casualties and prevailed.
Methinks that most of those in the forefront of the gun-ban movement wouldn’t survive.
ARguing with a liberal is like playing chess with a pigeon...
I concluded many years ago--after interacting with the Academic Left on many issues as a Freshman in College, that even the smartest of them are in pursuit of cloud-borne wish lists--never grounded on anything real. Over the decades, I have never found reason to doubt that conclusion.
You argue reality to such people and they are unable to process the argument. Their cause--their "ideals"--are always at war with what is real; with what is true.
“You argue reality to such people and they are unable to process the argument. Their cause—their “ideals”—are always at war with what is real; with what is true.”
You are exactly correct. The left does not have a problem with laws and policies; they have a problem with reality, and they think they can solve it with legislation and policies.
And alternative phraseology would be for them to go play in the traffic....
