Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: Why should gun rights trump common sense? [View all]Just when I thought I couldn't have any less respect for you, you go and prove me wrong.
You adamantly refuse to state your own opinion, thereby saving yourself the admittedly futile task of trying to defend it. At the same time you carpet bomb the thread with articles from hoplophobic ideologues and take pointless pot shots at anyone who disputes them. You sanctimoniously declare that if someone doesn't provide you with a link to one of those same ideologues that supports their arguments then they are right wingers. That sounds to me like a personal attack but evidently no one else feels the need to cry to the admins.
You were asked fair and valid questions. What do YOU think should be banned? What laws would YOU define as "reasonable?"

I know you bleat quite a bit about people accepting the "official story."

Apologize for what? Perhaps you can provide a link to what you actually believe.

You refuse to state your opinion -- in addition to the fact you do nothing else besides

Until we have stricter licensing standards in place "may" issue should be method to issue permits.

I mean stricter as in the tiered licensing system you endorsed in your previous post.

If you're trying to equate voting rights with issuing permits for public carry of a weapon.

I consider the discussion of the definition of an "assault weapon" to be a diversionary tactic

I agree the point is not legally correct. Carriers are non-government entities.
