is there anyone out there willing to have a rational discussion regarding the need for some gun control in this country?
i mean, when and how do we as a society determine that we have too much of a good thing? I vote we start by taking yours away permanently and prohibiting you access to them as well. THe rest of us have constitutional rights to have them. End of discussion. Its NOT negotiable. This is the most sensible suggestion I've seen yet short of him being sent to an institution for the mentally handicapped

The purpose of every discussion of "gun control" is to restrict our rights,never to increase them.How can you have a reasonable discussion when there can only be one result?

I won't be watching Liam Neeson's highly touted new movie "A Walk Among the Toombstones" coming out Friday. Small protest but since he has decided to diss his action movie fan base, it may grow.
Something about the hypocrisy of a Hollywood type making great sums of money playing characters in shoot-em-up action movies and then advocating gun control just doesn't play well in my view...Geo

For the same reason we can't talk about freedom of the press without bringing in the First Amendment. The can't reason we can't discuss the NSA surveillance programs without talking about the Fourth Amendment. How would someone argue about states' rights without bringing in the Tenth Amendment? Now let me ask you a question. Why would you want to leave the Second Amendment out of your argument when you are advocating more gun control?
I am glad to be here.

If anyone has any reason to wonder why I have "Ed" on my ignore list just look at that inane comment that Mike posted above. I guess we could discuss apple pie without bringing up apples!  Jim

While I don't think they're hypocrites making shoot-em-ups then talking gun control, after all its just a movie, people all over the world are scrutinizing America and her Second Amendment. They don't understand us, they see no reason behind it and feel that all people MUST live subjected to someone.
Well, we will never feel or live that way.
