See, that's weird. Shooting is a fun challenge and hunting has its merits, and I can understand having one around for the sake of protection too. But what our eager colleague here is describing sounds more like sex.

Anti-constitution liberal gun grabbers have an unhealthy obsession with associating guns with sex.

Ironic ain't? With all of the special effects today, Hollywood has taken violence in movies to a new level. Now don't get me wrong, I love a good action film, but those in Hollywood who preach about gun control shouldn't partake in the making of violent films, now should they?

Usually when liberals try to link pro constitution people with the crazies who commit these tragic shootings, they do it less directly, but you went straight for the jugular and essentially equated Harrier (a self admitted non-gun owner) with Adam Lanza, simply because Harrier supports and defends the constitution.

Can you liberals be anymore transparent and shallow?

Not anywhere in my post, Harrier, not anywhere in my post.

Look, you said that if it's not in the Constitution that people should be free to live their lives without fear of some gun nut blowing them away, it's not a right.

That's one of the silliest things you've ever said -- which is saying something.

You can pretend it's because you're such a freedom-loving Constitutionalist, but one, you'll never convince sane Americans that living with guns around every corner and in every public place is what the Founders had in mind, and two, you're deflecting because you're embarrassed by your ridiculous post.

Out of curiosity, what do you think the firearms ownership rate (per capita) was in 1776? Do you think it was higher or lower than it is now?

The only hope is a generation of young people who associates the 2nd amendment with school shootings.

you almost made me laugh with this post. the fact is that pencils are dangerous weapons when used in a certain manner, you are just too blind to see it. and the idea that somehow, as a pointed out before, licensing, and background checks, and tracking of guns is not going to magically end gun violence. all it will do is stop some law abiding citizens from owning guns.



because those 90 people in detroit are not cute cuddly white rich kids, so the media doesnt care about them.



center right party in power? who would that be? it certainly is not the democrats(who in fact ARE in power now), and most of the republicans are barely on the right these days also.

the problem with liberalism is that they are the ones that have cheapened life through pushing for easy abortions on demand. and ever since gun violence has been on the increase. liberals have pushed policies of cheap life, and then get outraged when someone goes out and proves their efforts to be successful.
And who said tracking guns would "end" gun violence? Do you think you are clever because you can argue against a simplistic strawman?

Higher because people needed to hunt for food.

That is no longer the case, nor could the founders have known that 200+ years later, morons would be pretending to be patriotic constitution-lovers in order to defend their sick obsession with guns they only play with.
