Your side is mere antagonism. nt Union Scribe Jan 2012 #56

Maybe you haven't noticed yet Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #58

Sure "we" are. Simo 1939_1940 Jan 2012 #59

Passive-aggressive ain't civility. cleanhippie Jan 2012 #71

I assume you're an expert on such things. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #75

Well, I'm no psychologist, but I did stay at a Holiday-Inn Express last night. cleanhippie Jan 2012 #80

The Right to be able to make that decision, and not have the state make it for you.... PavePusher Jan 2012 #11

I was born with my rights Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #12

The state most certainly can take them away. ManiacJoe Jan 2012 #15

Not without just cause... ellisonz Jan 2012 #22

All depends on one's point of view. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #23

That doesn't even make sense. AtheistCrusader Jan 2012 #27

Yep, and I'd like to encourage it as much as possible. AtheistCrusader Jan 2012 #19

Encourage what? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #25

"The decision of an individual to engage in such a practice is what is important." AtheistCrusader Jan 2012 #26

Well, despite the connotations of 'game,' it's better than political sado-masochism... SteveW Jan 2012 #41

Ah, so you agree that the decision making process is important. Good. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #54

Actually the right to carry concealed guns on our person is extremely relevant rl6214 Jan 2012 #60

It's not a right. It's a privilege for those in states that issue permits. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #78

No. Callisto32 Jan 2012 #125

I'm not contesting the right. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #132

The question was asked and I answered it... SteveW Jan 2012 #87

Interesting how you refer to liberal Democrats in the third person. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #88

I often use third person when using "liberal," due to the distortion of the term. SteveW Jan 2012 #89

Prohibition was a moral issue. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #90

Prohibition was presented as both We_Have_A_Problem Jan 2012 #91

All prohi's think their cause is a public safety issue. n/t X_Digger Jan 2012 #92

So what? I'm not a "prohi" and this is a safety issue. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #97

False dichotomy. Try again. n/t X_Digger Jan 2012 #98

Both gun and alcohol prohibitions are moral culture wars... SteveW Jan 2012 #95

You must be joking. Tell me you're joking. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #96

No, I support and advocate self-control Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #109

I'm with you on that first part. The rest... SteveW Jan 2012 #110

You know what that post reminds me of? X_Digger Jan 2012 #116

You just don't get it, do you? Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #117

Would you say that about anything else? friendly_iconoclast Jan 2012 #118

I give up. You win. Good luck. Starboard Tack Jan 2012 #119

Lot of loose change, here... SteveW Jan 2012 #143

Some people would say that's free speech... ellisonz Jan 2012 #108

Since law enforcement generally has access to fully automatic weapons... beevul Jan 2012 #111

The average beat cop doesn't walk around with a full auto weapon at the ready to my knowledge. n/t ellisonz Jan 2012 #112

Nor does the average citizen, or average criminal. beevul Jan 2012 #113
