Ya, me either. I've been to jail for a lot of things but shooting someone wasn't on the list.

It has nothing to do about needs.

And losing civil rights is a serious issue, maybe you missed the 60's.

Why don't you just want everyone locked up in a padded room, its the only way you will know that someone won't hurt someone else.

Because you are too stupid to actually have a normal conversation with: I'd rather have my HC magazine.

People die everyday, open the obituary if you get upset over death. I got news, you will be upset everyday of your life.

You're just like a small child that cries, pure emotion and no logic or reason and it takes us parental figures to explain to you that life isn't fair.

Suffering is subjective, I wouldn't trade my dog's life for those 20 kids. Being principled is difficult for half-men and cowards.

If you don't need one, why would not being able to purchase high-capacity magazines cause you suffering?

Twenty dead children killed in under 5 minutes is a serious issue too.

I hope the police search your house one day without a warrant because you don't need your right to illegal search and seizure.

Well, gee, I thought calling someone stupid was considered a personal attack on this site.

You continued to post about making "objective," "principled" and non-emotional judgements about things; however, seems to me that your every post is pure EMOTION. Do you really think the above is NOT emotional?

Um, I guess you're forgetting that this is, you know, Connecticut? How does this affect you?

I suppose you just enjoy typing "cold dead hands" because it makes you feel manly or something.

Any natural or man made disaster. Hurricane Katrina for instance. Proprietors protecting their business during a riot. Youths in America trying to get into college on a carbine shooting team scholorship. How a bout anyone who wants to have MORE firepower than thier assailants.
