You had to quote all that?

I always wonder how anti-gun idiots can maintain their position, given that the facts destroy their position, but them I'm reminded of something Ayn Rand said, which is, "You can't persuade someone with reason if reason isn't how they arrived at their position in the first place." I mangled that...

I can't believe Storage Wars is even a show. The concept itself is ludicrous. To make a battle out of people bidding for abandoned storage lockers...how did it ever get on the air? Now, Ice Road Truckers, Whale Wars, and the Jennifer Brennan Show...those I can watch all day. Gold Rush, too.

They're going to have to keep doing that, because in a while, Obama-care will start climbing that list of killers. So they'll have to keep focusing on guns.

Thank you. Isn't Canuck money worth more now, too? And isn't your health care system still a little more socialistic?

I can't imagine that it is. It was passed during the genesis of the modern militia movement in the 90s. But lots of things aren't legal, yet are. Think of all the governmental departments that are wholly illegal, yet they exist.

Canuck-bashing is mere repartee, except where I point out how individual rights aren't as respected there, our how Canada is more socialistic than us, though we're catching up. Yes, I consider what you said to be an attack, not just harmless 'nad busting among guys.

According to US Code Title XII, Section 311, chapter 313, the militia is composed of 2 parts: the organized militia and the unorganized. The organized militia is, indeed the national guard. The unorganized militia is composed of every able bodied male between the ages of 17 & 63. What the heck...

Look back to your lessons about dependent & independent clauses. That a well-regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state doesn't limit gun rights to that militia. I remember a linguist being asked for his opinion about that sentence, and he concurred, based on how the sentence...

You know so little about me. Your attack is based on ignorance. But I'm hardly surprised.

She's got the gun and the rack to go with it. Why am I hungry all of a sudden?

To expand on a point I made a few days ago, if you confiscated all the money from all those we call "the rich"--not just increased their taxes, but actually confiscated every penny they had--and have it to all those we call "the poor," in a few years, most of the rich would be rich again, and...

I believe it was Turtle who first said it's unnatural because they can't reproduce. So that's where the general "they" was established.

Here's one: he claims the government, in writing the Second Amendment, wrote the first gun control law. Actually, "they" weren't the government yet, being that states wouldn't even ratify the constitution without the Bill of Rights. In fact, the Second Amendment, like the others, is a government...

The article is full of sophistry and falsehoods. It invalidates his point.

Every once in a while, we see a post in which the importance of punctuation is demonstrated, like this one. Surely, you can see how incomprehensible this is as stream-of-consciousness?

Yes, and that's they. Someone else first mentioned that they can't reproduce, and they can't. If a normal couple can't have a baby because of a problem on the man's part, they can't reproduce. His wife could, because she could couple with another man, but they can't. And this lesbian couple...

No, quite the opposite. It's clear that they didn't reproduce. One of them reproduced with a man. There are plenty of things the state may compel someone to do, though mostly it's that one refrain from doing something. That sexual deviants not be allowed to rear children is one of them, and...

Jesus said, "The poor you will always have with you." That's why general entitlements will never end poverty, no matter how many wars are declared on it. With individual charity, you can direct charity to the deserving. Giving to the rest is flushing money down a rathole. You could give them...
