"Right to bear arms" should mean ...

    I'd like to know what you all think "well regulated" meant?

    It doesn't make sense and that's why firearm acts of 1934 and 1968 were enacted. Of course maybe those don't go far enough. Realistically though, discussions on JWN about what else should be restricted get bogged down fairly quickly.

    Why do you think that is TD?

    We can debate the gun issue in a week or so.

    What will be different then?

    We will be calmer then, Beks.

    Hug the kids.

    Waves at you from the Ferrari.

    Nothing. Gun haters still gon' hate. Gun owners still gon' want to defend their rights. All arguments on either side are still gon' be as tired, cliched, and impotent as the argument itself.

    But, carry on.

    What do you mean we will be calmer then? Ok, since it was too early for Bob Costas to talk about it less than two weeks ago, and too early to talk about it a few days before that when the kid in Fl was shot, and I guess it's too early to talk about it after the Oregon Mall shooting.......................exactly when is it that will be a good time to talk about it?

    This is another right wing NRA bullshite avoidance of an issue that the majority of the country wants to address.

    Did you get rid of your shotgun over this, Beks?

    I'm surprised and disappointed LowKey. Discussion?? We can't even have a discussion? You sound like a JW poisoning the well, those who want some kind (hell we don't even know WHAT kind cuz we aren't allowed to discuss it) of regulation are "haters", but those on the other side are simply "defending their rights".

    We will discuss it Beks.

    So - did you turn in your shotgun?

    What does that have to do with anything James?

    Authenticity of the words we post, Beks.
