Rant and rave all you like. Twist what I have said. Ignore the parts you don't wish to acknowledge. Use all the silly hyperbole you like. None of that is going to change my position. . .it is not going to change how and for whom I vote.

If that bothers you, so be it. I'm sure it doesn't bother you near as much as having your sister raped and thrown out a window.

You are cetainly entitled to your opinion, and I respect them.

However, I have witnessed property crimes committed by black and hispanic men repeatedly (never once by a white man). I don't call for outlawing black and hispanic people. I had my car totalled and I was injured by someone who wasn't paying attention. I didn't call to outlaw cars.

Any instrument can be used for a good and bad purpose. Because some people use it for bad, I would hold the person accountable, and not the instrument.

If you use every cicrumstance in your life that has caused some harm, you could possibly make the case that everything except pillows, vitamins, and water should me made illegal.

Then again, there are enough a$$holes in the world that could probably figure out a way to hurt people with those items too.

Because 10%-20% of the population are scumbags, doesn't mean you outlaw things for everyone else to keep the scumbags in check, IMHO. Then again, that's just my opinion. I respect yours, and I hope you do the same.

You kidding, buddy? Do you have any idea how many people have died from being smothered by pillows? Do you know that many vitamins are lethally toxic in overdose? Are you aware how many people drown every year? How dare you suggest that these murderous instruments of destruction be legal?
