Reasonable Middle Ground
Yes, it's about two and a half feet wide and about eight feet long. Thanks Cheerio.

Just like all of the "climate scientists" claimed industrial emissions would trigger a global ice age in the 70s ...

Particularly since the left exhibits 0 knowledge of actual firearms or the law that surrounds them and only comes out of the woodwork to exploit emotion derived from tragedy.

You cannot have a rational discussion with an irrational person.

I do not discuss firearms with liberals. I usually refuse to talk, but if pressed I simply say that I will kill anyone that comes for my guns. That usually ends the conversation.

They need to have it made crystal clear to them the extent of the buzz saw that they will run into if they come for our guns. They need to fear us as much as they hate us.

The NRA does not protect us.

The second amendment does.

I’m sure Tom proposes the same reasonable middle ground for guns as he surely advocates for Confederate war memorials...

Dear Thomas,

“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”

Discussion concluded.

The TOTAL number killed by mass shootings over the last THIRTY FIVE YEARS is still far less then ONE PERCENT of those killed by abortion every year

If guns were the problem this kind of massacres would be every day events.

No other Western nation has the number of gun deaths that we have in America, and we need to talk about it.”............................... Switzerland has a nation of guns, and fewer deaths. But we are a nation of 350 Million, and much larger than Switzerland, so naturally we’d have more. I believe that Western nations that are monolithic have fewer gun deaths and a calmer society. Germany and France have strong gun laws, and yet there are gun deaths, England is even more stringent, and now they are arming the bobbies. Crazy liberals they are all out against guns, but not drugs. Death by Guns vs Death by Drugs, and the winner is..........? (Yeah death by abortion beats both of them.)

Reasonable middle ground; we only repeal half of the current gun laws.

Mr. Brokaw, I am not protected by the NRA, I am protected by the U.S. Constitution, the 2nd Amendment and by my firearms.

It’s an easy way to cause a left winger to throw a temper tantrum worthy of a 2 year old.

'Reasonable Middle Ground’

No. That's spin on incremental chipping away at our rights. Shall not be infringed. Not "shall be mostly allowed, as we see fit, subject to our whims..."

Eff U libtards. So-called "gun control" provably and undeniably does not work! Look at the cities and States with the strictest "gun control" laws and policies and guess what? There's an excellent correlation with the cities and States with the worst crime rates, particularly violent crimes including rape and murder...

Therefore even if "gun control" wasn't a direct violation of my Constitutionally protected rights I still could not support it. It is simply a demonstrated failure - completely ineffective at addressing public safety. About the only thing it does do is makes criminals safer and bolder - "gun control" disarms their potential victim pool and makes their job safer, more attractive.

"I won’t have that conversation with anyone. The answer is ‘no.’ The debate is over."

I love having that conversation with gun grabbers. It's a riot. Watching them get red faced and start stumbling over their words is pure entertainment! Much better than anything that's on TV.

Don’t you think we should have new reasonable gun laws?

No. End of conversation. It was short but I have to go.
