Maybe if you see a post on here where someone throws it out, shoot me a link via PM. I'm all about correcting my blind spots.

I don't like to use the "law-abiding" term, just because it feels like an overused buzzword. It's just the clearest way to express what I'm trying to express. I think it's sometimes worthwhile to note that a person has been vetted and determined to have a squeaky-clean record. I recognize that that doesn't mean a person will never commit a crime in the future, but in the absence of reliable ESP techniques, it's best information we have to go on.

I love the contention here in the Gungeon! No other gun forums have as lively a policy debate going on, and no anti-gun groups have forums that allow for any kind of dissent(except one Facebook group I've become rather fond of).

You don't even know what "my argument" is Scootaloo Jul 2012 #37

Murder is very rarely done as a first offense. GreenStormCloud Jul 2012 #43

But we were specifically discussing carry. NewMoonTherian Jul 2012 #44

I think we might be having different conversations too Scootaloo Jul 2012 #45

I find it hard to believe you've never seen it Scootaloo Jul 2012 #47

You don't like Meiko Jul 2012 #27

I'm sure there is some correct info on Stormfront, KKK's web site, Ayran Nation, etc. But not much. Hoyt Jul 2012 #30

I wouldn't either Meiko Jul 2012 #33
