For some reason, the right-wingers are no longer harping about "Fast and Furious!"
We can no longer have rational discussions anymore in this nation because the conservative party is extreme.

conservative extremism distorts the American political system. Again, it is so easy to get guns in this nation and in many states so difficult to prevent people from getting those guns that we end up with the very bad situation where Americans buy guns and then sell them to Mexican Drug cartels.

conservatives won't acknowledge this reality and don't care because they are so extreme.

Hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, who was it that threw granny of a cliff...buttttttttttt, no way that was extreme...

You want to have a rational discussion, tell your ignorant lefties friends to stop bringing up battleships, hand grenades, fully auto machines guns, fighter jets, rocket launchers, A bombs, and all the other things they bring up as normal everyday easy to buy over the counter weapons.

You are so off the mark can't you see that? If you look at many of the photos of the drug war you can see that majority of their guns didn't come from U.S civilian sources their guns come from the American, Russian and Chinese GOVERNMENTS yet the government wants to ban your guns.

So sad, this is the issue. conservatives focus on false fantasies instead of reality. It makes it impossible to discuss the reality of the problem of American guns winding up in the hands of Mexican drug cartels.

conservatives continue to drift further and further away from reality.

Irrelevant, create a coherent post which I can respond.

You mean you cannot respond to the truth, O.K. got it, so I will slow it down for you so you are able to understand (hopefully).

When the right has a rational conversation with the left, the left will bring up battleships, hand grenades, fully auto machines guns, fighter jets, rocket launchers, A bombs, and all the other things they bring up as normal everyday easy to buy over the counter weapons. To attempt to prove they are correct and the right is wrong. So who is rational in that conversation?

Is that now more understandable?

Oh and the granny off the cliff, you dems made a commercial about how the right is going to throw granny off a cliff because of medi-care cuts...
