Why's that? The Brady Campaign will ALWAYS want stricter gun control. The only reason its not been a focus of the Obama administration is because he's focusing everything on shoving his medical reform down our throats & trying to make illegal foreign criminals American citizens.

Fear mongering, however, is obvious. You're throwing around buzzwords (bolded) in order to incite hype. Fear mongering is a tactic of politics.
...I stand behind my statement that Obama (and his puppet master Soros) would bann private ownership of firearms if they could find a way to do it. That it has not been done yet is of little consequence. In order to complete the Marxist agenda it will be a requirement. Hopefully that day will never be realized.
Vigilance is key to protecting freedom. No fearmongering about it. Obama is a threat to every area of Constitutional liberty, IMO. I prefer to be proactive when it comes to maintaining the RKBA. Of course, YMMV.

You took that literally? Really? Must be more of that fear and paranoia projection.

No to the first sentence. Of course to the second.

Where does a burglar look for things to steal in a house?

It means "I have no idea what the hell you are talking about" when you use words like "rkba" and "wmmv".

Rather than spouting off your incessant drivel, why don't you grow a pair and answer these two simple questions.

This is the THIRD time you've been asked. Why are you so scared to answer them?


I'll repeat the questions:
1. Did people figure out ways to kill each other - en mass - before the invention of guns? YES or NO?
2. Would people still be able to kill each other - en mass - in the absence of all guns today? YES or NO?



The fact that you won't have the balls to answer either of those questions with a simple YES or NO answer is evidence of the FACT that the answers are undeniable.

The bottom line is that you have, as usual, aligned yourself with the wrong side - the side that is lacking common sense.

Define the parameters in which "en mass" would apply. In other words, don't make the question absolutely meaningless by inserting a highly relative qualifier, and then accuse the askee of being non-cooprative if he refuses to participate in your childish food fight.

Answer my question:

Is a dog big? YES / NO

Coward. As expected, you're unable to answer 2 simple questions.
