Quote of the Day

Unless we adopt and enforce strict gun control laws--ones much tougher than the Brady Bill--we will never succeed in stemming the violence spawned by the drug trade.
Source: Seize the Moment, by Richard Nixon, p.294-295 , Jan 15, 1992

In a time long before the term "Conservative" became synonymous with "village idiot" in US usage (conservatives in other countries can actually be reasonable--I know it's hard to believe, but it's true),  Gun Control was seen as a bipartisan issue relating to public safety.

So, yes by the US usage of the term "Conservative", there is no way that I could be one--and I'm very proud of that fact.

  2. It's not big news that crooks support gun control.

    It's also been well discussed that the movement had lost a lot of ground since their early 90's heyday when both parties wanted to screw over gun owners.

    1. Yeah, it's all about the poor persecuted gun owners. Step back, man, and look at the bigger picture.

  3. The Pooch said, " there is no way that I could be one--and I'm very proud of that fact. "

    No need to worry about being called a 'conservative'. You clearly are a Red. A socialist through and through and a member of the 'idiot village'.

  4. I can see why you don't bother to read garbage comments like these. Kill happy gun loons calling you names, now that's garbage.
