Man, you would think we would all agree that 98% of Democrats in Federal, State, County and City governments would cave in to the gun-control Lobbyists and legislate away our rights. To me this is the reality.
Democrats appear to only vote FOR gun owner friendly legislation during election time. I think this is reason enough to vote against 98% of all the Democrats when they run for office. Tom

Maybe there's some progress here since you almost seem to be admitting as much. I wonder if you have any statistics on what percentage of registered Republicans are gun owners and what percentage of registered Democrats are gun owners. As I have said before, I don't bother with the political type forums. However I know the names of some. And I have a close friend that is a regular on the "Democratic Underground" which is a pretty "left wing" web site (I hear...I still haven't bothered to visit....I don't have any interest). He tells me that a large majority of it's members are pro gun, and a very significant percentage of its members own handguns. I know he has a beautiful hard chromed Hi-Power that is the most accurate 9mm pistol I have ever shot. His collection is modest but all keepers. A beautiful nickle Walther PPK/S, A Smith and Wesson .357 Mag, a Beretta 9mm FS (?)and a Ruger .44. He had a nice collection at one point but lost it in a burglary of his NYC apartment. His dad was a NYC cop (killed in the line of duty). I don't know what his dad's politics were. I do know what his are. He is one of your true (and to my knowledge quite rare) "liberal extremists".....pretty much the only one I can think of. Yet not a "Bush Hater".. Just a Bush critic. But to you that would probably qualify as a a "Hater", just as any number qualifies as 98% if it sounds good to you. It would really go a long way toward establishing some credibility for yourself if you stopped just guessing and making up numbers. I'm still reeling from your claim that corporate profits pay off to investors with stock dividends. Then you followed that with "common stock never pays dividends". Then you followed that with something else. I think it was four versions of how stocks do/don't pay dividends. Truthfully it didn't sink in because it was all wrong. Which came as no surprise. Really Tom...I read your posts and it's like a game. How many times can you get the words "liberal" "extremists" and "hate/hater" into each and every post? Reminds me of when my son was 4. He never seemed to tire of repetition. He watched his "ET" video until it literally fell apart. Why not actually use facts instead of guesses? Peace, D.

The VPI and Democrats vs Gun Owners
Supreme Court Nominee Samuel Alito’s Views Could Imperil Most Federal Gun, Ammo, and Explosives Laws, New VPC Backgrounder Shows http://www.vpc.org/index.htm The Democrat/Liberals attack through, the Violence Policy Institute, on Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito proves again that the Democrats attacking President Bush want to remove our right to own firearms. I just can’t understand why members of this gun forum are supporting the Democrats and liberal extremists who are attacking President Bush. President Bush and the Republican majority Congress continue to preserve our second amendment rights in spite of the liberal extremists. We need Alito on the Supreme Court to help preserve our second amendment rights. I suspect the San Francisco Democrat gun ban law may reach the US Supreme Court this year. Tom

I got one question. Since the people of SF voted for it, why bother to change it?? Let them "suffer" by thier own ballots. And since we're on it, how come the right hasn't repealed the ban from DC??

Damned good questions.... As I have said I don't like the way this turned out for the people of San Fran. But no one is making anyone who doesn't agree with this live there. It was passed by a majority vote. And if gun hating people want to go live in San Fran because of this vote then that's their choice too. I hope they do. It will concentrate more of them in one area. It's hard for some people to understand "majority rules" when it doesn't go their way. Quote:

Anyone above the law?
Rosa Parks. And thanks to her we have an example that not all the laws are correct. If you are willing to risk the possible consequences for your actions when defying a law, do so. At least here in Georgia, a jury is the arbiter of not only guilt, but also the law.

The minority who voted against the gun ban can still win in the end. Of course if the Democrats win the lawsuit against the conservative, gun-rights organizations then they will have the law of precedent on their side when they come to your city. Tom

Gotta hand it to him. He really put together a hell of a team. They manage to play both sides against the middle and never be perceived as "fence sitters". How do they do that? And with such consistency. It really is awe inspiring. Peace, D.

Why are you so fearful? Really, you make life sound like the board game "RISK". Real life isn't like that. Caesar isn't plundering your local royalty's treasury as his armies rampage through the Midwest. Power in Washington isn't gained by pillaging and plundering the countryside and raping the provincial virgins. It seems to me it's gained more by granting government contracts and selling and buying influence. Seems like if there's money in the personal firearms business it's best served by loosening any restrictions, not by tightening things up. So what's the upside for gun grabbers to leave home? Maybe you just like to worry? Peace, D.
