(255 posts)As I keep saying, our POLICY on immigration is excellent given the political reality. My point is that, when we go to present that policy to the public, we present it with an eye to not saying anything that will offend white suburbanites.
Guns, I agree that an ever increasing percentage of white gun buyers are doing so because they flipping racists. If it were up to me, I'd stop the sale of guns to anyone who can't demonstrate a history of sporting use AND a need. I'm just saying that it isn't at the top of issues for people where I grew up.
I know you're going to get tired of this but once again thank you for your post. My mom and dad taught me to give and recognize respect. I've failed too often at doing the first, so I try to make sure I don't at the second.
