    You may not remember (I do) but after watching the Clinton administration pass gun control through lies and manipulation, and a blatant violation of House rules to pass a nonsensical gun ban, I was glad to see the NRA's leadership standing up to Al Gore's decision to try and out-Clinton Bill Clinton through proposing an astonishing array of draconian gun control to be enacted should he be elected President. The NRA made an unequivocal statement through Charlton Heston that continues to reverberate today... and it was a statement that needed to be made.

    You sneer and dismiss it, but there are people in this nation who want civilian disarmament. They've figured out they can't do it in one fell swoop, so they seek to act incrementally, in response to whatever crisis they can manipulate into impetus to enact some new, asinine restriction. The leaders of this nation (and those who play their marionettes' strings upon them) need to be reminded from time to time that the people still retain the spirit of Resistance.

    You may not remember, but I do, what the NRA used to be. Full of people who would bend over backwards to help you in anyway they could. Now? They're a bunch of political hacks.

    What the hell is this:

    Why do individuals want a particular piece of legislation to pass? What is the motivating factor to such?

    No, not really. Passing legislation that has no purpose other than to assuage liberal imaginations is the forte of Democrats.

    Because it used hyperbole to make a point?
    If that's the case, the anti-gun side "lost it" at its inception.

    Someone has to defend the right to keep and bear arms -- right now, its the NRA.
    I don't see that need going away any time soon.

    I disagree.

    When someone is trying to strip you of things protected by the Bill of Rights, that's the perfect time to be an ***hole.

    So wife beaters should be allowed to own firearms because they are not a "danger to others" until they actually kill their wives?

    Same thing applies to the mentally ill on psychotropic drugs? They are not a "danger to others" until they have killed at least 4 people?

    Is that the argument you are trying to make here?
