    But it does mean that they're trying to do it.

    I didn't say any of that. In regards to doomsday, would you question someone that stocks water and food in case of disaster?

    and.....

    Why get worked up about something that has zero chance of being passed?

    I feel like some Republican's need to lay off the Rush Limbaugh, Lars Larson, etc. kool-aid.

    Because getting worked up AFTER it passes doesn't do much good, does it?

    Did you follow all the internet piracy and privacy shit that congress was trying to pass? CISPA and that other one.... anyway..... peopled raged and it failed. If you wait until after the fact, it might be too late.

    I have one rifle. A .22 semi-automatic that holds 18 rounds. I got it when I was 15 to shoot rabbits off of my grandparents' property, and it hasn't been fired in almost 20 years. Yet this is considered an "assault weapon".

    Sorry, but that one is Bush's fault.

    What concerns me most is how some people just seem willing to allow their "leaders" to have weapons that aren't available to the general public. One would think that American citizens and how our country was formed would be a bit more protective of their 2nd Amendment rights.

    He left it at the marriage alter. The damage has already been done.

    Some people have an alarmingly blind faith in the government to take care of them. They question nothing, they challenge nothing, and if you don't agree you are paranoid or a conspiracy theorist because the government would never hurt us.

    I agree, but I also think a big part of it is in party politics and the current political climate.

    That the major media is basically just a press release co-op for the Democratic Party now doesn't help, either.

    I haven't shot my rifle in almost 20 years. Doesn't mean I don't want to keep it, though.

    Explain to me how going to a range and shooting at paper is any different than going to a batting cage or going to a driving range.

    Batting cage - You are practicing hitting a ball

    Driving range - practicing hitting a ball

    Shooting range - Practicing killing something

    I'll just never understand how someone gets off shooting guns for fun.

    If you need 18 rounds just to kill a rabbit maybe you should try shooting something that moves a little slower. Slugs? Cans? Any white guy who has ever played for Gonzaga?

    Seriously, have you ever shot a gun? Be honest, we won't laugh.

    Are you telling me there cannot be a law passed that runs counter to the Constitution? Really? M'kay.
