So, I lurk on Free Republic quite a bit. Usually it's to read some of the outrageous comments some post here and some of it is to see what your opinions are on certain articles that also get posted elsewhere.
So, a little bit about myself. I'm in my 20s and of Hispanic origin. I was born in New York but moved to Florida when I was three years old. I'm what you guys would consider a "socialist". I don't consider myself a socialist, I'm a supporter of the free market economy except I favor strong government regulations.
While on many issues am probably to the left of the Democratic Party there is one issue I agree with the Republicans but it isn't an issue that would ever sway me to vote for the Republican Party. That issue is gun rights. I love guns and I believe the 2nd amendment is a fundamental right to the people of the United States. I don't believe in a ban on "assault" weapons or on accessories like there is on certain sized magazines. I also support the right for one to properly defend themselves with or without deadly force with your legally owned firearm.
However, on economic and social issues I side with the DNC. I'm probably to the left of the DNC on most issues.
So anyways, ask away.
I give him props for being open about it.
Probably too short for a good UT, though.

Clicked on the thread and smelled ozone almost immediately.
Nice to see the ZOT 9000 still works.

Do you live with your parents?
Have you got a job?
Who is paying for your health care?
How many time do you visit Starbucks each month?
Tats and piercings?
Who paid for your education?
Do you think citizens should have more guns than the government?
What do you think of pajama boy?
(And don't try Barack's line about some stupid video.)
Why did Obama not consider this an act of war against the United States?
I got gas smarter than you.
Please go back to NY. Tomorrow would be fine. Cuomo will welcome you with open arms and open wallet (yours).
Suffice it to say I want your kind to leave me and my world the hell alone. Pass the word on, OK?

That’s too bad. This might have been fun.
Bummer, I wish he hadn't been zotted yet. I think that only though engagement can we see the (however disturbed) mental processes going on with liberals.
I'm I saying we could save this one? Probably not. Am I saying we can save lots of others? Definitely not. But we can find the strategies to save some, and that's important to do.
Doesnt matter how lefty or Hispanic-y you are, liking the 2nd amendment makes you top of the list of useful idiots to disappear if these pukes you roll with get their way.
Oh yeah. I’m a big socialist too! And since you’re pro-2nd amendment, I was thinking according to your ABILITY to have a gun, I was kinda accordingly needing a gun. You being the consummate socialist, I’m sure you’ll fork yours over.
Congratulations. You’ll be in the marxist death camps labelled as a useful idiot.
If you’re not a liberal at twenty you have no heart, if you’re not a conservative at forty you have no brain.

Laaaaaaaaaaaame.
Not worth Undeading.
Penalty on play, not original enough.
Penalty, five yards and execution of your gerbil.
“I’m a supporter of the free market economy except I favor strong government regulations.” In other words, you don’t support the free market.
But keep reading, my dear child, your mind is more open than most and, indeed, you just might learn something.
Well, I think we need more choices than just those two. How about bi-banned or trans-suspended. Or Suspended in a Banned body. Or in a Banned relationship but Suspended-curious. Or I'm Banned but whenever I was drunk in college I was Suspended.
Tell you what. After the dust settles from all the rants, etc, give me a shout. Maybe we can have some interesting and I hope educational discussions.
Hasta la vista, compañero!
