I agree it adresses everything you said in the first place. That is not in question. You however did NOT address anything I said. Which is fine I guess...adressing everything you yourself say in another post while replying to someone else is a spectacular way to look like your replying to someone else whilst really having a conversation mostly with yourself. If thats your definition of a discussion...well whatever turns your crank I guess.

As to gun control being a progressive issue...perhaps it is, but as so many gun control advocates continually keep telling everyone...gun control and gun BANS are two different things.

Gun BANNING is no progressive issue at all, and in fact is generally a civil rights violation. See the Heller versus DC decision for details. Oh, and keep in mind, that even the dissenting opinions said the right to keep and bear arms was an individual right, so don't bother attempting any of that "right wing court decision" business.
