You said you care. From that, how do you feel, despite your best efforts, that a seemingly huge number of people are going to fall short? Does it upset you?

Is there any way you could see how your statement would feel 'unexpected' to another?

I wonder, do you see any irony in this statement?

That is the burden of your belief. That the millions who don't align with the creed you subscribe to face an interminably wretched fate. I pity those who have had this burden pressed upon them.

No I don't which is worrying as it seems you may have not understood my point. I simply wanted you to acknowledge that a total ban on guns is not what was being proposed. This is the jump you make that discredits you. It's total conjecture and conflicts with the facts. The gun ban legislation...

This reminded me of that scene in Schindler's list when the concept of power is discussed. Link I believe your notion of freedom has been enslaved by the iniquities of others.

Here is the White House's proposals Link It doesn't include a total ban on guns, as you well know. Perhaps the proposals are flawed perhaps they are sound but the problem is you don't even allow yourself to reach a point of objective consideration. If you think about it calmly, isn't it...

Does this link make you feel any better? Link

I don't think it courteous to imply some-one as an enemy of the state because they differ from your point of view. It's all tip your hat and apple-pie until you talk about something with any meaning. Pretty disingenuous if you ask me.

Here's my view on it, take it for what you will. I think you have allowed the criminal element and the media's portrayal of it to strip your freedom from you. In much the same way as a teenager with a smartphone, you've adopted the gun as a necessity for life. It isn't a necessity. You could...

By the way I've been researching Windows Azure all this week and now I return to this site and am bombarded with Windows Azure ads. Talk about preaching to the choir :p

I have known people to have had similar experiences as Blade within the care industry and come to the opposite conclusion. As we've all experienced on this forum, outlooks are rarely changed. I think we tend to interpret our experiences in a way that soothes how we view ourselves. If we have a...

You've been watching too much of The Walking Dead ;)

So am I getting this right? You disagree with the proposed tightening of semi-automatic weaponry as a response to a mass slaying of children because it may simply impinge on one's leisurely pursuits?

Ok, so can you clarify for me what it is that makes a SMAW inappropriate for public access as opposed to a Bushmaster M4?

So you believe that the general public should be free to purchase any weapon capable of resisting the US military? eg. SMAWs, machine guns etc etc...

I'll let the members of the remaining industrialized nations rebuke you on this. I'm too ashamed to do it.

Oh poppycock! Do you realize that the US alongside South Africa are the only 'advanced' nations that do not have a universal healthcare system and South Africa have previously tried to install one. According to your point of view these two nations are the last stalwarts of capitalism. Total...

Errr the New Deal was a response to the Great Depression.

I run a small business (sole proprietor) and can now afford health insurance for me and my family. Why should the private sector determine who receives treatment through the abomination that is the preexisting condition clause? My wife has been trapped by this bully-boy tactic for the best part...
