King and Ed may prefer to live in communities where concealed carry is a rare thing, neighbouring New Hampshire not all that different from Nova Scotia (New Scotland). I can't speak for Ed but I believe that's what he was inferring. What's wrong with that?.... Hmmm, concealed. How do you know it's a rare thing? Do your legislators have the will to enforce mandatory kilt inspections, or do you find comfort in their talking points? Now that we cleared that up, maybe you are right, we should all live in communities where items you refer to as assault weapons, are common things. Think of it like a women's rights issue. We prefer to live in communities where all men are pigs, but some men are entitled to live in no go zones, eh? Just kidding King, I realize none of this is a passing thought where you live. It makes me think of a story I read on the internet. A proper pc family was out on a picnic at a gun free lake side park. The grandpa says, I gonna jump the water to cool off. A bit later, the young kids are aghast when he emerges from the depths wielding a shotgun. No kidding, I read that, and things like that have got to stop. Right now!

canvasback; Whether anyone else believes in God or Not I DO; About the only New Testament reference I am aware of is this; Mat 24:43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. This was spoken by Jesus himself & was not given as a "Command" but as a fact recognized by all, used as an illustration. I added this as an answer to those, & yes I have heard this used, that defensive killing is condemned by the commandment "Thou Shalt not Kill". Even heard a lady "politician" once say this condemned the practice of capital punishment. Fact is God recognizes the difference in Thou Shalt Not Kill & Thou Shalt Not Commit Murder, which is the actual meaning of this command by present language. At the time that law was given, the punishment for its violation was the perpetrator was to taken outside the city & STONED TO DEATH. If that's not Capital Punishment I don't know what is. I do also know for a fact there are many on this forum who also believe in God, don't want them to be Fooled into believing that God Prohibits Self Defence.

King, 200,000 members on gunnutz. They are only just figuring out they can be a powerful lobby. In active public membership they dwarf the antis.... I think you just shot 'em in the foot before they got their legs under them. When they figure out that they can be a powerful lobby, King may start a trend by comparing them to the NRA.

Please understand Miller. I'm not being critical of your beliefs in any way. I'm only talking about effective and ineffective strategies and tactics for countering antis.

Reminds me of Marlowes Faust. I can imagine King as the process unfolds saying... Search me! Search me! ___________________________ Some really good material here.

". . . a picnic at a gun free lake side park." Imagine it: a community legislating a gun-free park.That's unconstitutional, isn't it? How'd that come about?

Miller, I've known you here for a long time as a principled person. I respect your faith. The US is moving away from capital punishment. We may agree, referencing thief in scripture, that killing to protect property is murder. To protect life, a different matter. I'd go further than you and say a strong majority of our members have a spiritual life and believe as you do in different ways.
