I wouldn't piss on 99% of the gun control ideas if they were on fire. They're not worth it. Not a one worth saving, really. You know, Jamaica, a small island nation, has a thriving "illegal gun trade." So does Mexico. So do the former Soviet nations. They are where, it's said, many of the illegal guns in the U.K. have come from--which, by the way, now implicates U.K. as "having an illegal gun trade." Funny, places with gun bans also have thriving "illegal gun trades." Makes you wonder why good people should be told to do without guns, themselves, if the laws that ban them won't protect the citizenry by disarming the felons.

He can register a different handgun (maybe he has) which meets the registration requirements. There will be a pissing match about what kinds of guns can be banned, and it will take years to clear up, but the basic principle has been decided don't you think? Yes, that's exactly the point, the basic principle has been decided, and an individual right to own "GUNS" has been agreed upon. That makes it all the more ridiculous that D.C. should be attempting to draw a needless distinction between revolvers and semi-automatic handguns. As if it's such a big difference that things will be OK if it's just revolvers, but hell on earth if semi-autos are allowed. Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire

Which is fine and logical until you start twisting it to catagorize a semi-automatic handgun with machine guns simply because it loads from the bottom. Twist it far enough and the only thing legal will be flintlocks. But that sits fine with anti-gunners, DS! They recognize that the Framers didn't foresee our technologically advanced weapons, so they weren't protecting them. And the anti-gunners will be in agreement, of course, when we make a move to attack the 1st Amendment, because the Framers could not have possibly been protecting print and other communication technology that didn't exist in 1791. So it's back to the movable lead type with you! Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire

What a lot of nonsense. No one with any credibility at all argues that there exists a SINGLE right that is "UNLIMITED." Even one's right to LIVE is not unlimited. So there's no setback involved, here, Kallend, since there was no credible claim ever made in the first place that our 2nd Amendment rights are "unlimited" or are supposed to be. Sheesh. Talk about a strawman. Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire

Taking history lessons, or predictions for the future, from a comedic sci-fi B movie puts a person squarely in the camp of the accused. Pop culture and celebrity worship are a couple of the culprits, not the teacher. I understand what you're saying, but I disagree in this case. The film was not teaching anything, and I was not learning from the film. I simply agreed with the film's premise that--as anyone can see by a glimpse around the world, and even his home environs--it seems clear that the stupid are far out-breeding the intelligent. Watch an episode of "COPS." You will find that, too, "instructional." OK, so we disagree. But I refute that I am "caught up in what I criticize," because at the same time as I criticize, I also look around and see how foolish people are in modern times to believe that WE will be the generation that achieves peace around the world, and eradicates disease, and saves the planet, etc. etc. We're just one generation in a stream of generations, I know that. But watch or listen to anyone whose voice reaches >1 million people and you will hear nonsense about how WE are the one generation that's special enough to fix it all.

I am good friends (from high school) with a guy named Ian who went on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" and won a quarter of a million dollars. I watched the show when it aired, and as I answered the questions as they were asked, my friend actually ended up having to use his first lifeline before I would have!

Surely if they wanted to they could write a bill specifically for skydiving operations, then, and avoid the wrath of the airlines altogether. This would be after Obama railed against the waste, and recited a litany of fuel-consumption figures. Hell, he might even take them from a recent thread I saw on this site...

Althought I shudder to think of the industrious ways the fucking scumbags who now live in this world will come up with to DEFRAUD a popular vote, that's what I clicked, because I think it's the right way to be electing government.

Well? It's an honest question. He has laid out these lofty plans he has for energy production, for reduced emissions, etc. It doesn't seem out of line to ask if he might maybe slap some hefty fuckin' taxes on G.A., and tether us all to the earth with unaffordable fuel, airport user fees, etc. etc. etc. What do you know, or feel, about the possibility that the way he's talking, he might end up fucking with our fun?
