until you started the Israel rant, which we'd best not get into. Besides, this is a 2nd Amendment thread so....

According to the Gun Owners of America and others, this move to procede with S.1776 was a serious attack on gun ownership, the move to invoke cloture, had it passed, would have virtually guaranteed passage of the actual bill according to the rules of the Senate. Notice how our new senator sided in this attempt to require your gun-related health data be dumped into a federal database. It would also have put your (government mandated) insurance...

I am not a liberal or any of the other insults you shout. If you believe in your freedoms you should respect the right of others to say there opinions. There may be issues out there that could affect our gun rights in the future but I personally don't see anything I'm concerned about in the next few years.

Perhaps the most important is the 2nd amendment - without it the others aren't worth more than the paper they are printed on. Who has the control is evident by what all the news media, talk radio etc. have in common - an unquestioned support of Israel. Having lived overseas several times and kept up...

Just have one thread here can't really work for folks who come up with issues and articles concerning attacks on or Second Amendment rights. Maybe a 2nd Amendment sub forum would be in order. We have one for gunsmithing...... Plus one...

mauserboy, I'll offer you the same bet. You are free to put your money where your insinuations lie. Deaf, dumb, blind, and $200 richer What do you think? Would you like to lose a bet to a deaf, dumb, and blind man?
