We need to change folks' views - just like smoking, driving drunk, waving/flying confederate flags, spousal abuse, and more that used to be popular and tolerated.

People need to understand that there are too many Zimmermans walking around with guns. They also need to recognize there a lot of callous toters -- you can even read some disgusting posts right here.

Finally, we can wait another decade to do something, we'll just have 100 million more friggin guns to deal with and a lot more innocent victims.

All that to coddle the gun culture.

I don't know if Mr. Z is going to be the one feeling like an idiot. gejohnston Apr 2012 #128

He may well skate, but the facts remain the same. Starboard Tack Apr 2012 #129

The issue is going to revolve around "how did it get to that point." gejohnston Apr 2012 #131

She would have done that anyway. GreenStormCloud Apr 2012 #4

Simple, Hoyt Apr 2012 #88

And what exactly are you doing concerning gun control? rl6214 Apr 2012 #96

Have you gotten rid of your guns yet hoyt... beevul Apr 2012 #99

If I go out in public with one or keep them close by at home, yes. Hoyt Apr 2012 #101

Well, theres no way to tell who keeps them closeby at home... beevul Apr 2012 #104

Let's start with tough restrictions on public toters. Then we'll start on next issue. Hoyt Apr 2012 #105

Unh uh. beevul Apr 2012 #107

That seems to be a standard attitude Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #91

seems like it gejohnston Apr 2012 #92

You left out "if you need to carry a gun to walk in public"- that's the point. Not what you imagine. Hoyt Apr 2012 #93

Because it's a constitutional/human right, and cigarettes don't... Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #97

That's funny. What's the name of your militia? Hoyt Apr 2012 #98

The unorganized militia (read: people) of the state of Maryland Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #102

Not that right wing bull. Read Stevens' dissent in Heller. Hoyt Apr 2012 #103

I have, and I reject it. Reason... Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #106

Of course you reject the Non-right wing view. Hoyt Apr 2012 #114

Well, how about this... Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #115

I'll take Stevens' and the other three non-right wing Justices' opinion. Hoyt Apr 2012 #117

So, the state-regulated militia Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #119

No, you don't get it and likely never will. Guns are that important to you. Hoyt Apr 2012 #120

Naturally, you omit any counterargument Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #121

We are civilized now sarisataka Apr 2012 #122

So what brings you here if you so dislike Dems.? Starboard Tack Apr 2012 #69

Logic isn't your strong suit, is it? X_Digger Apr 2012 #74

Maybe because I missed all your mammal references. Starboard Tack Apr 2012 #76

Get someone to explain it to you. X_Digger Apr 2012 #77

Yes I got that Starboard Tack Apr 2012 #79

I daresay I've supported (time-wise if not financially) more democratic causes/candidates than you. X_Digger Apr 2012 #81

She's not a person. Callisto32 Apr 2012 #112

I'm glad RKBA is really going grass-roots Glaug-Eldare Apr 2012 #20
