  1. I did get in on the conversation. I have brought my viewpoint to the table. Some of y'all (not necessarily you) dont like that I wont accept infringement on our Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. That doesnt mean Im not at the table, it means I will not bend to weak ineffective regulations and arguments. Show me something that might actually work and doesnt infringe on the rights of the citizenry and let's talk.
  2. You missed the point. "The double standard is clear: When Democrats work on behalf of a special interest that aborts millions of children, they are doing so from a place of conscience and ideological purity. When Republicans argue in favor of Second Amendment rights, it is because they have been bought off by a disfavored lobbying group looking to profit from carnage." https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2018/02/26/if-nra-owns-republicans-planned-parenthood-owns-democrats-christian-schneider-column/372679002/ "In fact, since 2012, Planned Parenthood alone has donated virtually the same amount ($2.6 million) to individual candidates as the NRA ($2.7 million)." To be fair though "The NRA has, however, spent more in third-party independent ads that either criticize Democrats or support Republicans." But to also be fair, the NRA is private and doesnt receive government funding. Is there anything more corrupt than Planned Parenthood getting money from the government and then spending it on political candidates? Also of note from the article: "57% of respondents said mass shootings in America are more a reflection of problems with identifying and treating people with mental health problems, while only 28% blamed inadequate gun control laws."
  3. Interesting take. How do you feel about Planned Parenthood?
  4. Absolutely not. Semi auto rifle ban would accomplish nothing accept encroaching on the gun rights of the 2nd amendment. Rights that "shall not be infringed."
  5. Im not real happy with the spending, I think it is pathetic how nobody gives a fuck about balancing the budget anymore and running up the debt. But yall are out marching against gun rights, why would I organize a march when Republicans are in power. They know what their constituents want.
  6. Sure, I am all for give and take as long it doesnt encroach on my liberties as gun owner. I will not accept banning of any weapons as an acceptable solution. Because we all know handguns can just as easily be used in these shootings as a semi auto rifle, and I would argue they could be used in just as deadly of a manner as any semi auto rifle. So if we can come up with some middle ground solution, Im all for it. But those marching against the 2nd amendment need to understand people arent just going to hand over their rights to bear arms because a march happened.
  7. We dont have anything to organize against because we are in power. LOL. You make it too easy.
  8. I appreciate your response. I do think they are being propped for a political agenda, but even if they arent, I wont be listening to their cries/protests as they do not really have a firm understanding of the 2nd amendment, its history, and its purpose (they think they do, but they really are far too young to fully grasp it). I do hear their frustrations/fears and I feel for them, it would be heartless to say you do not. However, I will not be manipulated by an emotional argument. If meaningful reform that I actually thought could have an impact on gun violence in schools without infringing on the rights of the citizenry was proposed I would support it. I just dont think the answer is to make kids wear clear backpacks or ban semi-auto rifles. There is a middle ground but that is not it.

  10. I am in no way against the protests that happened. First amendment being exercised is fine by me. But the irony in your post is thick. "Weird, because the Constitution grants him the right to bear arms, which is what gun-owners do... and you don't seem to want that... weird..."
  11. If you think the children organized that, I have some beachfront property in Montana to sell you. Get real. Hold that march on a Saturday and see what happens, nobody wouldve come. It was pushed by liberal adults. Kids just wanted to get out of school. Repeal the 2nd amendment and see what happens, I dare you. And good luck getting 3/4ths of the states to agree to that.
  12. 2nd amendment wont be repealed. The liberals undermining our Constitution and using children as props should be classified as traitors to our country. The Constitution outlines our God given rights as humans and the government is sworn to uphold those rights. It is not for you all to try and change. If you make the midterms about repealing the 2nd amendment, you will lose and lose badly.
  13. I would, what makes you think that? Seems like a wild assumption to make.
  14. I will take anything a stripper/attention whore/porn star says with an extreme grain of salt. That being said, I believe that Trump plowed and paid this woman.
