Reply to Some thoughts on "gun control" in Politics JoeUser Forums

I seriously want to know more about the bullshit argument that is represented in the 2nd amendment. "To let the people take up arm against an oppressive government". Yhea, sure, it worked in the American Revolution. But the American Revolution wasn't against an oppressive governement, it was against an oppressive Foreign Power that thought it still had total and absolute rule over the Colonies. The actual governement of the 13 Colonies were the ones that rised up in defense of their c

It allowed the USA to do whatever they want, and be right about it. Ironise what you want, Guy, but I am telling you that this shoe represent more than a deranged journalist in the Arab world.

[quote]I am not saying anyone stole anything - or for that matter bought it. Clearly we have a miscommunication here. One comment concerned stealing and I merely made the observation that those who yell are those that are usually crooked, and as we saw, a lot of dead people voted. Fortunately, their votes did not mean anything this time. But leading up to the election, it was the democrats yelling it, and ACORN, their patsies, doing it.[/quote] I still need evidence to prove that ACOR

About "Provoking": Christians hold the value that the gay community lives in sin. They came in not to claim a right of equality, but to "pray for their souls". It's not even remotely close of Martin Luther King's, who was fighting for equal right for his people. If Martin Luther King had claimed that "Pray for them, because they are White, and God will forsake them", I would have understood violent reaction on the part of the whites. the Christians are looking toward removing

[quote]So only democrats can yell stolen? Seems that way. Cheaters are the first to yell fowl when they lose.[/quote] Doc, remember what I told you: if the "winner" gives away all the states that have been controversial and still wins, I don't think it matters. In that case, it doesn't matter. the dems might have "stole" whatever state you want to say, Obama still wins clearly. You can't say that for 2000 and 2004. Not by a long shot. Not even by a short shot.

One thing sure, they really should start to dissociate themselves with the religious right. It's a pact with the Devil they make, and the longer they stay on the course with them, the harder it will get to leave them. I remember reading an article about Obama's coalition. He managed to get those voters: the 18-29, the blacks, the hispanics, the first-time voters, the high-income (seriously! More high-earner vote for Obama than for McCain!), the poors, etc.. you look at

The intent of my reply was to point this out and try to discourage people from making conclusions about people's motives that are truly impossible to discern from the data.
