You are calling "the vice-president and his ilk" liars, which obviously means you are also referring to our President, and the Democrats in congress etc. that are all for gun control liars and loonies, right?

Who exactly is this "we" that will not let these "liar Democrat loonies" get away with anything?

Hmmm...
You do realize you are on DU, right, not FR or CC?
