I have supported NO gun control laws EVER. Why don't you go back through all the posts I have made here over the years and show me ONE where I support gun-grabbing or gun control laws.






You are "--- an NRA member who believes prohibition of such weapons is not a reason to refuse to back a good man ---"

Thus, you support a man who says he will sign a bill prohibiting such weapons. -- You support signing the bill..

Parse it as you like, but you are supporting gun prohibition.

You are committing a retroductive fallacy of soundness (somewhat taking the form of the Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc fallacy). To wit:

  1. Jsuati supports George W. Bush.
  2. George W. Bush supports the AW ban.
  3. Therefore, Jsuati supports the AW ban.

Allow me to demonstrate by example where this fails:

  1. Roosters crow in the morning.
  2. In the morning the sun comes up.
  3. Therefore, roosters make the sun come up.

What lame brain could believe that if you support a candidate that means you support ALL that he does?

That is a really stupid way to think. There has never been ONE candidate whose positions I were ALL of my liking. Has there been for you?

Still can't come up with anything to support the LIE that I support gun control laws? Can you?
