Well we can't agree on everything Grace I still admire your stand on Christian issues (except this one!).

This to me isnt a Christian issue. Its just a matter of civil rights. I've been shooting since I was 6 years old, and hunting since I was able to get a permit (not so much anymore), and I know hundreds of people like me, who have no intentions of harming anyone. By passing laws restricting guns we are the only ones that will be hurt by it. The criminals arent giving up there guns.

I don't see an issue with guns for hunting or other sports. But when people feel they need to sleep with a gun under the pillow, or they daren't leave home without one - that's a problem.

The macho attitude of morons like Toxic sooner or later leads to unnecessary misery and loss of life.

A lot could be done to resolve the issue if there was a will to do so and Christians should be leading the way.

Yea, I dont think any buffoon should just be able to carry a consealed weapon. But thats already illegal in most states, without the proper permits, which are hard to get.

The shooter at NIU was allowed to buy firearms with the proper permits. It is a shame that the seller didn't know it would be used on other students.

Garysher : Why is it that you seem to have such an infatuation with my penis? Did you miss last weekend at the gloryhole? My wang and my gun are both very much seperate entities and have no correlation to one another. Of course the liberal "gun is a compensation for having a small penis" rhetoric will never get old will it?


When I call you dickless I mean to say that you are a spineless coward that would rather trust others not to fuck with you than actually actively make sure that they don't, not an actual take on your physiology.

The bottom line in this sort of debate will inevitably break down to:

Question :I've got guns and you don't like it, so what the fuck you gonna do about it?

Answer : Nothing, because you don't have any guns and you are a pussy.

From my cold dead hands baby.

Not as long as you pepper your macho gun posts with phallic imagery sunshine.

Will you be meeting with your NRA gun buddies tonight to shine each others barrels?

You're an easy target but at least you're a good laugh.

hahaha how can I argue with a star trek picture and someone with no point? America is the best country in the world for 3 reasons:
Capitolism, free speech, and the right to bear arms.

And yes, I stand by what I said about England, if anyone has any reason why I'm wrong feel free to state it.
