I agree with this, we seem to have a select group that would feel okay, perhaps even giddy, if the rights of others went by the wayside and they could feel more comfortable and happy in their lives.

There are choices people make, if you do not own a gun and believe they are dangerous, who are you to take another's right to own one away? As long as they aren't convicted felons or have severe psyche issues, why should you care? Criminals will get guns, no matter what, our entire country's history shows that. Why should law abiding citizens not be allowed to own a gun? Who are you to demand someone else's right be infringed upon, deleted or interpreted in a way only your side approves of? Even law abiding citizens in every other aspect will still get guns, what you are you going to imprison everyone who owns or buys a gun? You think the War on Drugs has been a money pit?????? A war on guns would laugh at the chump change spent on any other war we have ever had.

If someone says something you do not like to hear, who are you to demand he have no right to say it, or to demand he get fired? Why not just turn the channel? What gives you the right to not allow the man/woman to say it? Nothing in this world would make me happier than a law that would silence Farrakhan, Limbaugh, Robertson, Falwell, Sharpton and so on..... but in doing so 2 problems arise: 1) I don't truly silence them they just go underground and create more problems than if I had let them have their say.... 2) someone may someday decide they do not like what I have to say and silence me.

I just don't understand how in the freest country this Earth has ever known and all the great things we could accomplish, people would rather waste time and money trying to stamp out other's rights because "they" don't feel anyone should have that right because "they" are more educated, civilized, etc.

Screw you and your self righteous indignations..... Millions have worn the uniforms that protect those rights you want to destroy...... Millions have died to insure we keep those rights, and millions of law abiding citizens enjoy those rights, who the fuck are you to decide to take them away?
