But you still take the money.

:lol:

Not America's money. Individuals pay a company for a service. The American people's money, is very sadly, being taken by their own country against their will.

Now you’re just setting up a straw man. The aims (ultimate or not) of firearm regulation are analogous to the aims we have in regulation drivers and vehicles. The paramount aim is to insure that drivers know the conventions and procedures that optimize their own safety and perhaps more importantly the safety of others. Drivers are required to periodically prove their competence and renew their licenses. Not only are drivers licensed but so are cars. We do this not to keep cars out of the hands of criminals; nor to deprive the citizenry of transportation. We do this because two ton cars hurtling down the highway at expressway speeds are fucking dangerous. Guns are dangerous too. I see no reason why gun users shouldn’t be required to have current licenses and why guns shouldn’t be registered. No body wants to take away your guns. That is NOT the ultimate aim, or any aim of gun control. That’s just a fear tactic.

Oh, and if you’re afraid the commies (or the FEDS) might know where all the guns are if we register them, well, they’ve already downloaded the membership list of the NRA. If you want to keep your guns safe from the commies…quit the NRA now and move to another town so they can’t find you.

You made no valid points. That's why they're missing in my reply. You're obviously intelligent, but any knucklehead can read and read and read and spout rhetorical points. However, I look for one's judgment on matters. Your judgement on most matters I see in your posts ... well ... stinks.

Whoever heard of meeting valid points? It's the invalid ones that require attention. Thanks again Mr. non-idiot InHouston.

Hehe...awesome.

Been outside the parish lines lately?

Houston dont even bother on this topic. Some people are less tolerant over positions on gun laws than they are on abortion, religion, or sexual orientation. Minds are closed.

While I for one can see their points they cannot see ours. They think that things like what's happening in Zimbabwe, or anyplace else that tyrants rule is impossible here because of pieces of paper! We know better, our rights are only guaranteed by the implied threat to anyone who would make a tyranical grab for power here. The people would rise up in force and start anew if the worst happened.
