I had a discussion with my brother about guns. I told him I didn't think gun restrictions would do much good regarding keeping guns out of the hands or criminals or nuts. If they want them, they wil get them. That's obvious. I told him I thought the restricitons were a waste of time. I also don't believe the slope to confiscation is that slippery. It won't happen, unless public opinion changes a lot. It also won't happen given the new evidence that an armed society is a polite society. But I think there is merit to waiting periods. It gives a chap in hot blood a chance to cool off.
But Laz is right. This issue is not a big one for me, one way or another. There - I said it.
I know it's not your issue, but everyone has their line in the sand.
I doubt you'd vote for a trade protectionist(that seems to be one of your big ones).
