Jul 2012

That all gun owning Dems should join the republican party?

That gun-owning Dems should instantly change their views because someone calls them a nut on the internet?

That all NRA members better show up at election time and vote republican because the DU bloggers are coming for their guns?

It is nice to wrap yourself in a cloak of self-righteousness , the same way the repubs wrap themselves up in the Flag when they spend our money on wars and killing?

...

Isn't the real truth that the killer is the nut?
People get killed because over weed, crack and heroin; why don't we outlaw those things....

I agree that this stuff should go back to the Gun forum.

I'd rather talk about things that might win us the election, not lose it...

Besides, I'm not interested in attacking other democrats.
