Never going to happen. And solving budget problems? Sure, but then you'll have literally thousands of Americans unemployed, without jobs, unable to sustain themselves and provide for their families.

You really didn't think that statement through, did you?

So that's it huh? Can't even come up with an intelligent reply to what I said? You aren't even going to say I'm wrong?

you don't like the regulations being put into place.

What regulations?
Criminals do not obey the law. Are you claiming to be a criminal now?

Uhhh.... no. There are no new regulations being put in to place, gun control failed.


And since apparently my last post was too long for you to be able to retain all at one time, let me minimize it to a sentence or two for you:

Using your logic about the right to own guns, lets apply that same logic to other rights, shall we? How about.... freedom of religion, so long as the religion is Christianity. I mean, so long as you have the right to practice even one religion, your right is not infringed upon, at least according to you, right?

Nothing says "liberty" and "freedom" like using your guns to intimidate a bunch of soccer moms and their kids.
You lie

And I can't wait to hear you explain how a group of soccer moms exercising their Constitutional rights to free assembly and free speech "pushed" these goons into doing this. It ought to be a good one.


Also, I'm anxious to hear you explain what this has to do with Balkanization.

Waiting patiently!
Well the last time I check one group is trying to take away the rights of the other, so yeah.

I cant not exercise my right to keep and bears because of infringement via moronic laws.

So untill the day I can not buy a single shot .22 long after everything else has been banned, and in order to get that single shot I have to wait 20 days, and get a permit, and register the firearm, buying high taxes in order for the privilege? until that day anything else in not an infringement?

Just by the acting of being armed you see them as threatening..

You keep complaining about supposed infringement of rights. I keep correcting you. Until you accept this, you're the one wasting time here not me.

What does religion have to do with the 2nd Amendment? The least you can is stay on topic, good grief. I know the crocodile tears you're shedding makes it difficult, but please do make more of an effort to stick to the topic at hand okay? Thanks!

You can still purchase firearms and ammo. Therefore you can exercise your right to keep and bear arms. Simple enough.

Until you can't purchase firearms or ammo PERIOD that's when your 2nd Amendment rights are being infringed upon. Seeing as how you will ALWAYS be able to purchase firearms and ammo, you shedding crocodile tears over this imaginary infringement of rights will always ring hollow due to the blatant lie you're trying to convince yourself of.
