55. I have never posted any "anti-gun"
post. I have questioned gun ideologues that have fought any reasonable restrictions on gun ownership and use. Myself and most gun owners, including most members of the NRA as polls show, are for reasonable laws that keep guns out of the hands of criminals and the insane. I am for the registration of handguns and handguns only. That is acceptable to the 2nd Amendment as it is the law in many states and has not been deemed unconstitutional by any court. Asking me why I'm pro 2nd would be like me asking why you are a Democrat when you bash the leader of the party every chance you get.

No you do not get it. He has never called for anything that is unconstitutional as ruled by the courts at the time. Yes there are reasonable restrictions on all liberties spelled out in the BoRs. This is a vast and diverse country and people in Chicago and NY City think different than those in Arizona. While you agree with Palin and Beck on issues, not everyone else does. Because you happen to agree with them on gun laws, I would hope you question some of their other views, just as I would. If you look at gun issues as only black and white with no middle ground, that would make you an ideologue on the issue. I'm sure you can come up with some reasonable restrictions on the 2nd while others here want none at all.
