It's really not worth arguing about because I'm not about to turn my weapons
over cause some hippie mf'r thinks we live in la la land with bunnies hopping
around and we should all hold hands and sing songs.
Why a political party would try and take away rights from the majority to
gain a few minority votes is beyond me. It did not work then and I doubt they
ever try it again.

I never said the world was a completely safe place. It's not. I'm not even against
reasonable gun ownership. I simply ask where we draw the line. Because, I am against vigilantism, I am against yahoos getting to play judge, jury and executioner.
BTW, can anyone tell me; Has anyone at all proposed
any gun control legislation
lately? And by "proposed" I'm not referring to pundits or press, I'm referring to actual introduced legislation that would involve rightful gun owners having to surrender any weapons. AFAIK, the answer to that question would be "no".
