(14,912 posts)The Democratic Party Platform SUPPORTS the 2nd Amendment! If *you* don't support it, you're not a Democrat but more of a part of some Lunatic Fringe, along with the grabbers and banners. Go create your own third party and quit fucking ours up!
It's hard enough being a Democrat living in the South, trying to change the minds of generations of ignorance implanted in the single issue voters who say they'll "never vote for a Democrat because all they want to do is take away our guns", or "my Pappy and Grandpappy would come up out of their graves and get me if'n I voted for a Democrat 'cuz they want to take our guns and make us gay!"
Yeah, I heard both of those while out canvassing in 2008... It doesn't help when you show them a Democratic website and they see all these "grabbers", "banners" and "All gun owners are assholes" posters. It leaves a bad stench in this place, and it needs to be cleaned up. If I had my way, I'd scrape you ALL out the door with a squeegee, then dump a few 55 gallon drums of bleach in here....
