The POINT is that the laws you love so much don't work.

The point is that the laws *I* love are the laws that actually keep firearms away from criminals -- that are directed at the law-abiding, not the criminals. My cognitive skills are just fine, as I suspect yours are; your short-comings seem to be of another order.

I, you see, don't love laws that say "criminals may not have firearms", the laws that you are intent on pretending CO Liberal was talking about. Nobody's talking about 'em except you, my dear boy.

And I'm just not at all fond of people who think (or pretend they think) that saying that such laws don't work especially well to stop criminals from using firearms to commit crimes is some kind of response to proposals for measures to keep firearms away from criminals, or to reduce the risk of firearms being used by anyone else to cause harm.

Your straw is starting to rot. You might want to get a fresh supply before you gag on the stench. It's bad enough out here. If you manage to get it all out of your ears, or to do whatever else might be needed for you to respond coherently and in good faith to what is actually said, do feel free to give it a shot.
