If you want to believe that I'm pro gun because I enjoy the safety of a crowd, go ahead, whatever floats your boat.
I have results on my side.

So how is your "crowd" doing on the gun control front? How many gun control laws has your "crowd" got passed?
Name me one significant gun control law thats been passed in the last, oh say, 5 years.

Are you referring to firearms ownership in general, or just carry?	Glaug-Eldare	Jun 2012	#28
and that right can be limited per the Supreme Court	DrDan	Jun 2012	#36
Limited, but not abolished	Glaug-Eldare	Jun 2012	#42
it can be denied	DrDan	Jun 2012	#50

up until the court grants your request, you have been denied	DrDan	Jun 2012	#78
felons can be denied gun ownership . . . as can minors	DrDan	Jun 2012	#68

Well, let's take speech.	Glaug-Eldare	Jun 2012	#71
so?	DrDan	Jun 2012	#72

Ahhh, I gotcha.	Glaug-Eldare	Jun 2012	#83
Does not reference a"right to safety" in the text. Try again.	oneshooter	Jun 2012	#32

Read carefully, I did NOT say, or imply that.	oneshooter	Jun 2012	#44
there are laws protecting public safety . . . do you deny their existence?	DrDan	Jun 2012	#49
first you have to prove a threat to public safety	gejohnston	Jun 2012	#54

I know	sharp_stick	Jun 2012	#11

That's unnecessary, bud	Glaug-Eldare	Jun 2012	#45
