Now, that I agree with, and have no problems with it. However, again, as shown by an apparent direct quote, Keyes wants us all to be trained and licensed by that same government in order to exercise the 2nd amendment... So, one day the government becomes a runaway tyrannical government, so we get fed up and go to hem asking to be trained and licensed to defend ourselves from the... oops...

Good grief, you'll already be trained. Train the kids youself. How about the CMP, even Clinton didn't try to finish them off, though they were privatized. Civilian training through the CMP has been around for nearly a hundred years, and the NRA's been doing it longer.

Get over the "training" fetish. Two guys are running, Keyes vs Obama. On 2nd amendment issues the choice is crystal clear. If Keyes gets your goat on other issues, or as a candidate (I admit he's not ideal) save it for non 2nd amendment threads.

Well, I only have tow things - 1, it's a specific part of his 2 amendment positions that are my issue with him, so it's an appropriate thread to discuss it on, and 2, I dont need your permision to post on threads. ;)

I know the choice is clear - I also believe Keyes is more ideal of a candidate than Obama, BUT I have an issue with one area that I would really like clarified.

I'm not anti-Keyes, by any stretch of the imagination, but I also believe that no one, not even Keyes, is above criticism on issues...
