No, that is for grandpa to say to the 6 year old. Your only job at 6 year's old is to laugh at old people farting.

Actually, I'll bet he instigated the problem intentionally, so that he could finally put into practice his 2nd Amendment rights and protect himself from a tyrannical government.

Military installations are gun-free zones. How's that for irony?

See; there's never a shootout in a military installation that is on the news - proves that it is possible

I didn't say it was a trend. I merely cited an incident that rebuts your generalized statement.

Not ever, cupcake. At least, not in this country.

No, a single case does not rebut it. It does show how the amount of weapons has a relation to the amount of shootings

Sorry, but the gun-fans are dying out, and will be replaced with a generation that intends to let their children grow up without.

I've never once said I'm a fan of guns. I am an advocate for liberty, and without the means to defend your liberties, you have none. It's a historically-proven fact.

You don't have to say it; you defend their use by people who shouldn't be allowed near them.

All of a sudden? Since WHEN?

Yes, Muricans are the only "free" people in existence today. I've seen many a religious nut, but at least they knew they were nuts.

I absolutely do not. We have gun laws and a background check system. How is it the fault of every gun owner in the U.S. that the background check system is not being used, or that existing gun laws are not being enforced?
Remember that guy that shot up the church in Texas not too long ago? He was able to purchase his guns because the Air Force did not submit his name (he was deemed a danger to himself and others by USAF doctors) to the background check system as a prohibited person.
How about that kit that shot up the school in Florida? He had 39 visits from local law enforcement, as well as being on the FBI's radar TWICE, and nothing was done. He was also under psychiatric care at some point, yet his name is NOWHERE in the prohibited persons list.

Actually, we're living under the illusion of being free. That's been the case since the 2nd president was "elected".

You defend owning automatic assault-rifles. Call it semi what you want, when a simple piece of wood makes it automatic, it is an automatic gun. It is not semi-automatic semantically simply due to a missing component.

39 visits? - sec - yes, you're right. How would that go when they report back to their chief? "Yes, we went out 35 times before, but the lady there serves great coffee, so we're going back"?

The illusion works for most people who vote.
I seriously do not mind YOU having a gun; on the contrary, it adds to the coolness, especially with the quotes in the signature. I DO seriously mind giving any regular Joe a gun. There's too much people that get injured by regular fireworks to be trusting any of them with something else than a cracker.

It doesn't show that at all. Schools are gun free zones, and look at all those shootings.
Governments won't stop being tyrannical just because you say so.

Difference is that most military bases actively check when someone tries to enter.
And you won't stop a tyrannical government with giving everybody access to guns (or handgranades).

I got married the first time at the Ft Hood base chapel, way back in 1972. I guess Ft Hood is still there?

He's neither crippled nor lazy - he simply has the weight of the world on his shoulders.
