LOL! You didn't ever exactly respond clearly when Harrier asked why you were against the Tea Party objectives of smaller, constitution government, supported by lower taxes which will create jobs, and government accountability.

Now you claim that the people who advocate for those common sense objectives - Tea Party people - are "damaging" the Republican Party.

Why not be honest and acknowledge that the Democrat Party is damaging the republic?

President Obama's stated goal was to "fundamentally change America".

He is, and the future looks ultra-gloomy.

Liberals create and love misery.

Guns should only be given to kids under STRICT supervision. Guns are not toys

Letting the kids shoot guns is a good way to teach them that guns are not toys.

Yeah, I am sure they will remember that when they bring one into a school.

There have been plenty of accidents where kids kill each other because they wanted to play with them. Real smart there, *expletive*

I bet that would solve some problems. What if every criminal knew every person could be potentially packing steel? Plus, they could throw their caps in the air and shoot at them at the end of the ceremony.

They, of course, could have the option of declining the weapon or selling it, or whatever.
America will give you an education and also give you the means of self protection.

Open carry, everywhere. This is America, not some pansy country.
Thats a stupid idea. Imma take that gun and shoot people with it.

Hey lefties.....this OP, your spokesman, is why you on the left will never have a chance at a true conversation about guns.

So pathetic....

We did have to get parent approval. I think 2 kids parents opted out, and they had to stay in class and study with the teacher.
