The part that says that when you make legal guns harder to get at illegal ones become harder to get to too, especially if you really crack down?
That's just stupid. Black market arms dealers aren't going to perform background checks, and banning guns that are legal now isn't going to do a damn thing to those dealers. I'm all for massive crackdowns on illegal arms, but how banning legal arms helps that cause a damn bit is totally without my comprehension.
Quote: So they should just completely abolish all background checks and make it even easier for idiots to get guns? Don't you think it would be better to try harder to prevent criminals and the like from getting guns on the black market?
Of course I do. I'm all for cracking down on the illegal arms trade, but I see no reason at all to deprive normal citizens of their right to bear arms, when many of them do so without incident. Now read this next line carefully because the immutable logic of it either escapes your comprehension or your notice:
BANNING LEGAL WEAPONS WILL NOT STOP SALES OF WEAPONS THAT ARE ALREADY ILLEGAL.
We clear on that? I hate repeating myself.
Quote:Did you even read her remarks? Instead of trying to disprove Franken's actual serious accusations against Ann Coulter she only responds to his very obvious jokes. Perhaps it would have been better if you had read the book, Weltall. When you get used to his writing style it's very easy to differentiate between his serious comments and his jokes. So I hate to report to you that she was wrong. Sorry.
No, and I won't read his book, however I can tell which accusations are jest (the one about them being friendly) and which are not (most of the rest). Politics aside, I think he's as humorous as a toothache, and if I need something to wipe my ass with, Charmin's a lot cheaper than his awful book.
Quote: At least he has some sense when it comes to certain issues. Ann Coulter is just pure blind hatred towards everything on the left. Guess that's why you love her so much.
Indeed :love:
