>>>But, instead you roll out the ad hominem argument -- a sure sign that your carefully constructed rationalization is crumbling around you.

Ad hominem argument? Say what!

You have presented convoluted rhetoric that makes no sense at all. The federal governemnt hasn't infringed on my right to keep and bear arms. You're reactionary absolutism is showing.

Good night.

I quote: You see a sinister plot behind everything to do with the government.

And in the next paragraph of your your most recent posting: You're reactionary absolutism is showing.

Look it up:

Apparently, you haven't been paying attention. Maybe this will help:

About halfway down the page are links to compilations of Supreme Court, state court, and circuit court decisions related to the National Firearms Act of 1934. Take a look at the lists that include summaries/descriptions. I'm sure you could find something in there that you could consider an infringement.

Until recently, the federal government has consistently taken the position that there is no individual right to keep and bear arms. Ashcroft has given lip service to repudiation of that view, but hasn't followed up with any action.

Did you really not know any of this, or are you just pretending because I backed you into a corner?
