Looks to me like the American general elections this year have come down to democrats vs. guns. An American majority indeed voted for President Obama twice and yet gave both houses of the American legislature to republicans.
Trump's not my guy, but he sure gets my vote in November. I might even vote a straight ticket if that's still an option in the ballot booth...Geo

James' post is an ignorant. racist rant. The Rockwell past he pines for never really existed except in his myopic imagination. There's no point in postings like these. Many here agree with them, but no one else will ever see them as anything but the feeble whining of a grumpy old white guy. My point is that not all here hold James' views and that the site is better when we keep such opinions to ourselves. I've been called racist more times then I can count generally by people who damn well know better. Be that as it may; You can't prove a negative so there's no way to prove I'm not one and the Libtards who do this know it. Oh and BTW fool: Apparently reading is not one of your core skills as this post is NOT something I authored.

When there's not much trust in either of our American political parties we seem to prefer divided government. Getting nothing done seems preferable to getting the wrong things done...Geo

Keith, Misfires had a point, then. It ran its course. We're better off without it. Gun politics ought to be off limits here because nothing on a site like this has any influence on the course of events. There are no conversions here. Let's just sit back and enjoy our hobby here. You 'd be better off to put your energy into other venues where you might make a difference. I'm no hypocrit. The Republican Party is nuts. I can't help them. I'll try to stay out of it here, but James' post calls out for some response so that others here don't conclude his lunacy is the only view on this site.

James. Why do you suppose anyone might suspect you're racist.I didn't assume you wrote that crap, but by posting it , you gave it your endorsement.If you really believe something else, say so. I'd like to think differently of you. Otherwise, vote for Trump. He's your man.

There seems to be an unhealthy dose faith in near any dem politician, it's the folks leaning right that have issue based trust concerns. On the surface, there's a fellow that could be anywhere from lukewarm to exceptional, but certainly not a continuation of the last eight years. On the other side there's a gal that's hitched her horse to the last eight years. She has faith in the members of her congregation.

Bill, the real problem you have with gun politics here is that it illuminates the fact that the Liberal Left Democrats you support wish to infringe upon the Constitutional Rights of law abiding gun owners. How can we enjoy our hobby when those you support are constantly attempting to take it away in piecemeal fashion? I'd love to forget about it, but they never stop coming for more. What is there to have a conversation about? We all know that you will vote for the extreme anti-gunner Hillary Clinton. I've got news for you Bill. She doesn't like your guns either. Her idea of common sense gun control includes further restrictions on you and allowing frivolous lawsuits that bankrupt gun manufacturers. But she's a Socialist, so I know you'll overlook those little things. By the way, you are a hypocrite. It was only about a week before Misfires was suspended that you started your mud-slinging "Republican's Incompetence Caucus" thread. Would you like me to replay some of it for you to refresh your memory? If David Brooks fails to see the ruination of civilization in our present circumstances, probably 90% of the rest of the population fails to see it too. Is it likely that only a group as perceptive as the Tea Party has it right? These are folks that don't read. They don't value learning. They deny science.They alone could be convinced by a cynical oligarchy to believe nonsense and vote consistently against their own and the country's best interests. Keith, no one responds to your absurd accusations. You wouldn't recognize a fact if it kicked you in the nuts. You're a brainwashed cultist. King Brown had no problem with incivility when you posted that. What conclusions can we draw?
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

I'd like to think differently of you. Otherwise, vote for Trump. He's your man. Oh I doubt if they really believe it. When Libtards are confronted with facts for which they have no logical response. They'll usually do 1 of 3 things: 1. They'll try to ignore the facts. Typical. 2. They will try to deride or belittle the facts. 3. They will attack the fact provider and it's usually something to the effect that they're a racist. You apparently tried all three approaches in this case making yourself look like just what you are a Libtard Buffoon.

Or, better yet, put up some money and start your own where YOU can call the shots. Until then, if you inhabit this place you play by Dave's rules. SRH
May God bless America and those who defend her.

I always avoid these topics like the plague but this one can't be ignored. My opinion of Franklin Graham is too high. A quick 30 second search for the origin and truth of the statement revealed its hazy origin. Anyone interested in putting another scam to rest might read this report on the purported statement by Graham. http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/americandream.aspMy goodness, I wish we could keep our discussions on Doublegunshop.com about double guns.
