I'm not getting into this again. You know that I, as well as many other liberals (Dems) would prefer that guns were at least more controlled. Conservatives (you know, conservatives like John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy, David Hackett Souter, Clarence Thomas) traditionally are less for gun control and more for gun liberty.
