Don't be an idiot. Demagoguery will get you nowhere, at least not with me. You're the one who keeps harping on the 2nd Amendment as though the Patriot Act repeals it or something. I haven't said word one about it other than to express support for it. You're the one who's siding with Hagel on this while disrespecting the President because you can't separate this issue from the border issue.
I don't need to justify any case against Craig. I disagree with him (and the others), and am suspicious of his motives. Period. Perhaps he is acting on principle, perhaps not. I have no way of knowing. I can be pretty sure Hagel is not. Sununu is a northeast liberal Republican. Murkowski is as much of a surprise on this as is Craig, so I'm equally suspicious of her motives. End of story.
End of story except that Los Angeles has been lucky to escape a major terrorist attack so far even though it has been targeted. With the death of the Patriot Act, Los Angeles becomes that much more vulnerable. None of your hypotheticals and theoretical arguments hold a candle to that reality.
That is because it effectively does. GOA agrees.

No, I'm not siding with Hagel. I don't even know what his issues are. I'm siding with Craig, but because you can't address that, you twisted what I said into something else.
That's misdirection. It's dishonest.

Then you don't need to support your argument. So sit quietly in a corner and pout.

For which you have not supplied a shred of evidence.

The idea that gun records would be substantive to the protection of the Port of Los Angeles is idiotic.
