gwhall57 - Check out my thread "Lunch with Liberals". These were guys I worked with for years and I couldn't believe how they think.
I did remember another item at lunch. I was told that carrying made me feel "empowered". When said he was off base all I got was a smirk and a nod.
This is typical of a Liberal ... telling ME how I feel when I carry. Their philosophy is that they know what is best for you or telling you how you should feel. Their reasoning is that they know what is better for you than you. Talk about arrogance!!!

Yet, once again, the labels do no good. "Liberals" and "conservatives" both are flawed characterizations of two groups who want control, and are willing to throw away fundamental rights to get it.

"Liberals" all too often want to throw away the Second Amendment. "Conservatives" all too often want to throw away the First. I'm not willing to give away either. I don't think it's particularly useful to demonize groups based on a label or catchphrase.

Well said! Nor should we demonize based on any other group charactertization.

So all the posts on this board that use the label "Brady-Bunch" are also not valid and uncivilized as well? Or should I just edit my original post and change "liberal" to "Brady-Bunch", and all is forgiven?

Some may feel as if I am a bit paraniod, but I truly believe that gun control is just a small part of an overall conspiracy to de-Americanize this nation.

WE, as citizens of the U.S. are forced to stand silently while our rights are slowly stripped away by forcing us to tolerate a flood of illegal imigrants,have our homes taken away to provide for more funding for cities,have our retirement money(Social Security) stolen from us and GIVEN to those that have never contributed a dime to the program,provide food, housing,etc. for those that are too lazy to work for a living,(I am all for helping those that are unable to care for themselves). The list goes on and on.

Wake up guys and gals!!! The ruling in the Heller case is just a minor roadblock for those that would enslave you and your children.
