Why, of course you're right. Our guns laws are way too restrictive....we need more guns, higher capacity, higher caliber, faster firing, that can be carried anywhere. This will be a sign of great health in our republic.

Seriously, when are the sheeple going to understand that the NRA is just the Planned Parenthood of the Right? I used to be a member until I realized that nobody wanted to take my gun, and they were just a profit-center dedicated to the eradication of a straw bogeyman. I now pay dues to the Society for the Destruction of Land Sharks. You'll notice we haven't had an infestation for quite some time now... you're welcome.


Yes, because that is what Pro 2nd Ammendment are asking for, what a dumbass response.

1. This argument is moot, because I personally do not know of a single Republican willing to restrict guns in any way. If anybody can name one, I'll stand corrected.
2. It doesn't count if the Republican made the pronouncement AFTER the NRA approved it. For example, bump stocks that make rifles quasi-automatic.

The point isn't even how strongly you support the 2nd amendment. The point is how the NRA can be so powerful as to not allow diversity of thought. In that regard, they really are like Planned Parenthood. Is every Democrat really that stridently pro-abortion? No - just the ones who hold office. Just a symptom of how our parties are bought and paid for, but only because the people want it that way.

This is the correct choice. I'll add that Jonny Havens is a solid guy with tons of personal integrity. Exactly the type of person we need running for office.

Dan Crenshaw's 4x8 signs have a black and white pic of him on them and he's got a patch over his eye. I think he lost it in his service as a Navy Seal.

I can't decide whether it is the stupidest idea or most brilliant.

1. Jason Villalba has openly called for it. Republican, Dallas

And you are sorely mistaken on the NRA and their "diversity of thought". A little historical research will show that the NRA has been supportive and instrumental in passage of some of the largest restrictions of gun control in history, including the 1934 NFA, 1968 GCA, and the 1986 AWB. Those are only the 3 single largest components of federal gun restrictions in all of American history.

Just because the democrat talking point that the NRA is an evil organization of murderous people who want babies to die in the streets doesn't mean it's actually true.

(I'm not an NRA member, BTW - a lot because of the '34, '68 and '86 legislation and them showing that they will compromise their charter to suit a current political whim)

Is abortion in the constitution?

Dude. Heller was a 5-4 decision. Guess who voted against it.

Educate yourself. We were a ball hair away from completely losing the second amendment had Hillary won.
94chem
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yes, I know, my 8 year old came home from school and told me that Hillary was going to take away our guns. If you seriously think that one Justice is all it takes to end gun ownership, then it will be inevitable, just like gay marriage. You should just turn in your guns now.

I told my son that the reason to not like Hillary is because she is a despicable human being, and that since he didn't own a gun, he'd be just fine.

Anyway, I'm glad we had this talk. I'm happy that many of you see that Kathaleen Wall would be a big mistake. She would be the Republican SJL of District 2, and in a safe Republican seat, could be representing us until she retired (or bought a promotion). Please don't let this happen. Any of the candidates would be a better choice.

The fact that it was as close as 5-4 is scary. We have SC justices that are ignorant of history and dont even know what the fuggin constitution actually says.

Not just the one justice scenario 94chem thinks it is either. Apparently he does not pay attention to the rest of the world. In California, I would be a felon simply because of some of the rather benign guns I own. Hell, I would likely be a felon because I have more than a handful of rounds of ammo, make,my own ammo and thus have components that would draw a no knock SWAT raid at 3 am.

With recent legislation passed there, a single range trip for me,would be sometbing I had to save up through restrictive ammo purchases for months at a time.

But sure, those that think politicians are doing what they can to systematically disarm us obviosly are convinced the boogie man is real too, right?

Even if everything you just said is correct, a Supreme Court decision outlawing gun ownership would be the best day in the history of the NRA. The thought of Steven Breyer, the JROTC from the local high school, and a few moms from the park down the street coming to collect the weapons would get the donations flowing like nothing else.

right, our ivy league law school educated supreme court justices don't know what the constitution says.

excellent start to making a point.

It is correct. No need to try to marginalize it.

And while I'm not particularly a fan of the NRA, the rest of your statement is pur-dee bull*****

So schmell, out of curiosity, let's say you're in a public place and somebody shows up with an AR-15 and starts mowing people down. What would be your weapon of choice to pull out to take him down?

This is where you show your ass.

Nobody I know who has a chl is looking to or wants to take someone down. It's a means of last resort to be used when forced to do so if I can't get myself or my family out. Every one of us knows we will most likely be out gunned as we aren't cops or first responders. However, I'll be damned if people such as yourself will take away my ability to do everything in my power to keep my family safe even though it requires ignoring the Constitution.

It's why we shake our head and laugh at the ignorant idiocy people like you spew about hypotheticals such as bystander injuries and tempers flaring at sporting events even though the FBI statistics say otherwise.

I'd personally want a .45, but I just like the balance. I know it might not be the best option in close quarters, but if you get hit, you go down. What about you? Any chance it would be an AR-15?

I'd argue that there are far more effective ways of guaranteeing your family safety other than gun ownership/concealed carry of a weapon. If safety was truly your foremost concern, you would do things such as: install secure steel doors/windows, thumbprint scanner door access for the house, wear body armor in public, bulletproof your car, etc.

While these are all ridiculous, they would definitely provide far greater safety to you and your family. And given the amount some people spend on guns, some of these might actually be cheaper. But I don't think that safety is the true reason anyone supports the 2nd amendment. Guns (and the associated power rush) are far too fun and exhilarating for it to be only about safety.

That being said, I know I won't change anyone's opinions. However, if anyone votes for this candidate Wall, I think it reveals that they are a puppet being manipulated by very obvious strings. She clearly is NOT qualified, given that she lacks the ability to speak in public. I'm happy to vote against her in the primary, but I need to do the research and find a suitable opponent.

I know your post was kind of tongue in cheek, but those are all passive forms of defense. It's nice to have the option for active defense I would imagine, if ever presented with a horrible situation. If someone wants to punch me in the face a lot, it'd be nice to have padding...but it'd also be nice to have the opportunity to punch back to get him to stop.
