Nope. Annoyed because you're inundating us with the same shit in eighteen different threads. You're not important enough to piss me off. And on case you haven't noticed, you're not much more convincing than Rhys. Just more posts in more threads. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

For fuck's sake, how many threads are you going to start on the same issue? Can't you just keep adding all these "sources" and all your "evidence" into one thread?

Two points to Andy. But even in places where folks seem to worship te gun, that would make it like holy book and tokens, right? The range and the gun shop would be the place of worship equivalent to a mosque, no? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

"Not at all. He has that right, no one should deny it. But criminals kill people all the time with their guns. If he wants to prove he's not a criminal then he will make the wise decision to not own guns. If he does own them, it will just be to try to anger all the people who have had loved ones killed by criminals. Why does he want to go after those families? Why try to piss them off?" (In quotes because I am repeating someone else's argument on the topic of constitutional rights.) Regardless of whether another poster said that, it looks like the analogy fails. I'm guessing it's about the NYC mosque, and if that's the case, then privately held guns are not like a large place of worship. Owning a gun isn't like a streetfront building. You could compare NRA convention to a mosque, or shooting ranges, or maybe gun shops. But comparing the right to buy a gun to a building doesn't really match up. To make an analogy to owning or buying guns, you'd have to use owning and buy a Koran, or prayer beads, or something small and private. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Which brings us back to the issue of a right versus a privilege. Driving is a privilege. Firearms ownership is a right. Even the US government doesn't have a problem with teenagers owning and possessing handguns. They just don't seem to want teens to be able to buy them in federally license gun shops. I also happen to think it's important to consider how countries with lower drinking ages tend to have less alcoholism and fewer DWI wrecks. The important things are learning respect at a younger age and having laws that severely punish violations. I believe the same thing is likely to apply to firearms. Taking it from forbidden fruit to respected tool is easy to do at a young age. I don't generally think making things taboo makes for healthy adults. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

Well it is play money considering they are one the leading oil producers, so maybe it's just a token then. Right, and practically their entire economy depends on oil exports, and anytime oil prices drop or opec plays with outputs, they run short of cash. OK, go ahead and point out where I've supported invading Iran. Go ahead. We'll wait. But you'll find evidence of Rhys' 9/11 theories before you find me saying the US should invade Iran. Perhaps a fisccal embargo, esp with oil. I'm not sue of the pathways of oil supply, it may be that it's a collective production from OPEC and that it isn't possible to not buy from Iran and to buy from other ME oil-producing nations, but at the same time it's not as tho we are strangers with Saudi. I dunno, if we could embargo their oil that would obviously be a great start, but that may also be impossible. There's hope for you yet. That was modest, you expored possible options, and admitted you don't know. I happen to agree but share your concerns about OPEC working together, and the fact that other countries DO need teh oil regardless of who drills, pumps, and ships it. I don't think the US takes any Iranian oil as it is. The demand just gets shifted around. And I don't see any likely scenarios where Russia wouldn't buy the oil to support their "ally." Yea, perhaps. But we should attempt something, this is just BS. You'll get no argument from me there. See, it bothers you that I introduce a measure that says anything other than what you've prediagnosed ALL liberals as having love for ME countries, Russia and ALL Socialist countries. You're so compartmentalized that me lashing out at Iran rather than supporting them throws you off-kilter and you then have to resort to sarcasm over substance. I guess it's ALL liberals fault for not adopting your, "glass parking lot" model of diplomacy. Not at all, but you go ahead and keep on ranting. You're curing me of that temporary respect I was developing for you, and showing that you STILL can't respond to what people actually ahve to say. I mean YOU'RE the one pgieon-holing me because you are anticiapting and addressing things I've never said and will never say. FYI: while I have made "glass parking lot" comments while fed up with the middle east, I've never endorsed actually following through on it. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

I'd prefer the UN address ways of stopping Iran from becoming a nuclear power, but their track record on monitoring ducks, and their ability to discuss bad action from an Islamic country is damn near nonexistent. Would you prefer the world does nothing while Iran acquires nuclear weapons? ps- I'm still waiting for you to reconcile Palestinians' past actions with a desire to live in peace. so, after the palestinians, you think israel should attack iran now - a much more powerful country than them? sounds a bit silly to me

Not sure, but one can only hope. The actual law being challenged is USC 922(b)(1). There's no law against citizens 18 and over buying handguns in private purchases. 922(x) prevents juveniles from buying and others from selling to juveniles. witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*

I considered that, but I doubt it.

Yep, he's an asshole. Even an asshat. Personally I like calling him a fuckwit. Courtesy of the Amazon, I also consider him goat fuck stupid. He's also very good at getting attention. He also didn't actually burn the book. Thankfully, we have this thing called the constitution, that includes things like protecting freedom of speech. And luckily, freedom of speech includes speech by assholes, thingsoatbof us consider offensive. We can't control what extremists on another country are going to do about asshat fuckwits in ours. Since the country has, by and large, come out against this, and leaders have stated they oppose it, what else would you have people do? Or is this an aimless but completely understandable rant? witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1*
