“…shall not be infringed.“

That argument would have a lot more weight if so many big government conservatives didn’t lead the charge to outlaw the broadcast of pornography and limit its display in private businesses. Now since free speech can be regulated, why not guns? Not a freak’n reason in the world! That’s why!

The upcoming infringements on our 2nd Amendment rights are the unintended consequence of Republican and conservative Democrats championing the infringements on our 1st Amendment rights. The larger lesson we should take from this should be that philosophically inconsistent shortcuts bring short-term gain for long-term pain.

Boating accidents seems to take the bulk of firearms from their original purchasers.

In a freak, inexplicable canoe accident…

You know, we “gun nuts” – considering how very responsible we are with firearms and such – sure are lousy canoists. Someone – once global warming evaporates all the lakes and ponds – is going to have a field day collecting all those firearms. A little Break Free and they’ll be like new…….

Careful it doesn’t become lost, stolen, or missing.

Though this is funny in a humorist sense, you realize that the whole “canoe” scenario when questioned constitutes lying to a Federal Officer in the course of an investigation (Think Scooter Libby). That is assuming they don’t tack on the old standard “conspiracy to violate Federal Gun Laws”, etc. Either way, you are toast. Either shoot when you can, or go to the camps but don’t sell the idea that lying to the new Obama Internal Security Dept is going to be funny.

A few million more refugees gaining “citizenship” and taking lower level jobs away from Americans.

Oh, and snatch the guns too! You rubes are too stupid to see I am the new Overlord!

All hail Obama!

It’s the dictator 0bama forcing it through executive order, that’s the real threat.

Not unless thieves can haul away a floor-safe. As for the other two, I’ve never lost so much as a pair of fingernail clippers. Rights come with responsibility.

If I am reading what he is really saying then you missed his point. What will you do when the grabbers show up at the door wanting to confiscate your semiautomatic handgun.

On a different note congratulations on the purchase.
