[QUOTE="Dega Moo, post: 979701, member: 19930"] Wow! That wasn't scripted and I certainly wasn't trolling. 3Way - did you actually read my post? Especially the part where I said about assault rifles "[color=#0040FF]I think it impossible to control them effectively." [/color]? I was not arguing for gun legislation. I was not arguing for gun control because I don't believe it would work. What I was arguing and will continue to argue for is dialog (TALK for you) about solutions to the problem of protecting our society from mass murders. There are many possible solutions to this problem and those solutions don't require additional gun control involving 'non felons' or the mentally sufficient. But right now there are a lot of people talking gun control and like it or not, right now they have the upper hand in that national dialog. The US Supreme Court made it clear we have the right to our guns but they also made it clear there were legitimate limits society could put on that right. My preference is that limit be found beyond assault rifles. Derision of the subject by gun advocates is and will be quickly dismissed by gun control advocates as simply more reactionary rhetoric from the 'crazies on the right'. Equating the shooting and killing of children in Chicago over a year, without context as to how they were shot, who shot them, when they were shot and the location of the shootings with the Newtown murders, minimizes the horror of what happened and simply plays into the hands of those who would take your guns from you and my guns from me. In other words, if you want to protect your rights to your guns, my rights to my guns, that post wasn't helpful. Think of it this way 3Way, I'm not seeking my own enlightenment but yours. [/QUOTE]
