Uh, because there's nothing that mr. norman understands about the word rational. How about we change the title of the article/editorial to: "Why can't gun HATERS handle rational conversatons?" Fookin' idjit!

Tony Norman appears to be the newspaper “sob sister”. They are editorialists who are hired specifically to irritate readers. Often, if they do not generate enough hate mail, they are fired.

They always have limits, however, because if they annoy the public too much, they will be fired for that as well.

These days, a blind man who has already killed someone in what authorities in his state considered a legitimate shooting accident can demand that the arsenal of guns confiscated from his home during the investigation be returned to him so that he can once again feel "safe."

The gun lobby does not consider arming blind people an absurdity and views any restriction on gun ownership as inherently unconstitutional.

So this guy is saying that the handicapped are second class citizens and not entitled to the same rights as other citizens.

And by the way the government is not arming this man they are returning his legal property (which was probably illegally confiscated). The man is arming himself which is his right.

As a journalist, I'm a big fan of the First Amendment and the principle of free speech. Even so, I don't believe free speech is absolute in every case imaginable or even in most cases -- you can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater. Free speech that undermines or harms society should be limited and subject to sanctions.

Boy this guy is goose stepping little fascist isn’t he.

He is ready to gut the Bill of Rights from groin to gullet.

Why can’t liberals use rational limits for free speech, like using printing presses and be limited to handing out flyers instead of mass printed newspapers and electronic mediums like the Internet?

We already have rational, actually what I call irrational limits.

The question is Mr. Norman, why can’t you accept them and live with them?

You f’rs are never satisfied. You won’t be until only criminals can have guns.

The problem that I have with these liberals, socialists and communists is that they aren’t satisfied with just 1/2 a loaf or even 1/4 of a loaf when they want something. They will eventually want the whole loaf. So, by getting us to give them this “JUST ONE “LITTLE BITTY, ITTY BITTY” CONCENTION TO THEIR DEMANDS, WILL MEAN, EVENTUALLY, EVERYTHING THEY WANT”. So, no thank you, we’ll keep our weapons, without having to register any of them to the government. We saw what all of that will mean, right after the hurricane “KATRINA” in New Orleans, when they sent their deputies to every house that had registered their weapons. Up to today, none of those confiscated weapons have ever been returned to their rightful owners, and the owners were never paid for the weapons that was confiscated.

Tony Norman: Why can't gun lovers handle rational limits?

Exactly so. The word “rational” is like the word “some”. Neither word is definitive and does not have a universally accepted definition. What may be rational to Norman is unacceptable and irrational to me. Then again, his little essay is intended for liberals and others who are of the same mind as him rather than for gun owners and 2nd Amendment supporters. Just another piece dribble for liberals to circle-jerk about.

I’m a gun lover who respects rational limits on ownership. When the basement, the main house, and the garage are full, I do the only rational thing. I find a bigger house.

“Why can’t gun lovers handle rational limits?”

We have over forty years of experience dealing with the left and their “rational limits”. At every turn they lie, distort, demonize and continually try to eliminate gun ownership. As a result There can be no trust of these people on any issue. We KNOW what they are really after despite what they publicly say. First it was handguns, especially “saturday night specials” except they defined EVERY handgun as a SNS. They wanted to eliminate “cop killer bullets”, but wrote the legislation such that 90% of ammo were cop killer bullets. Gun owners KNOW they want to destroy us. That is their real goal and any compromise will be used as a means toward that goal.
