I love guns

14. Indeed!

For all of this blather the antis talk about "compromise", a compromise implies that both parties get something out of the deal. What has the gun rights movement EVER gotten out of any of the restrictions imposed upon us?

We started off with an entire cake in 1934. We were told "be reasonable and share, we only want half of your cake!" And we were given the National Firearms Act.

Then with our half-cake in 1968, we were told "be reasonable and compromise! We only want half!" And we were given the Gun Control Act and retreated with our now 1/4 of a cake.

Then came the 1986 and we were told "be reasonable and compromise! We only want machineguns!" And the fully-automatic half of our cake was taken by the Hughes Amendment. Now we have but a sliver of our original rights.

And now were being told again. "You're being unreasonable! We only want part of your cake! Compromise with us and have a "discussion" about how much of your cake we should get!"

Nosir, I think you have quite enough of my cake. Until you offer something up in return, you'll not be getting any more.
