...buy assault weapons by taking advantage of America's weak background check laws...

Sounds like the perfect set up for the FBI to get their man.

Can you imagine Mohammad McBlowMeUp showing up at a gun show? What's he going to do? Causally browse through the white supremacist books and nazi memorbilia before casually walking up to Bill-Bob and asking if he's a private seller?

Instead of posting a link to the "World Socialist Web Site" that cites an article in the NYT, why don't you link the actual NYT article?

We already have enough links to the Daily Kook and Huffpost, Why don't you try to set the bar a little higher?

That said, those gun shows are full of undercover ATF, FBI and agents from the rest of the alphabet soup of agencies. I think it would be great if Al Qaeda would send all of their members to gun shows so we could more easily keep track of them. Just like ATF et al keeps tabs on the neo nazis and other home grown whackos.

He appears to be suffering from terror driven schitzoaffective disorder.

...oh wait, I'm not. You know why? Because I'm a gun owner. That means if I ever encounter someone starting some shit, I get to shoot the fucker in the head. Problem solved.

is a far greater threat to Americas civility, than a fire arm.  

and she opened the door when she knew her and her husband might be a target! Talk about stupid.

In total, each year firearm homicides amount to a total of some 12,000 deaths.

On the flip side of the coin, in 1997 the Justice Dept sponsored a study to determine how often guns are used for self-defense, i.e. to protect and save lives.

Their most conservative estimate came to 1.5 million self defense uses per year.

It doesn't bother me. I could care less. Mohammad McBlowMeUp could have all the AK's he wants for all I care. If he starts some shit, all you gotta do is shoot the fucker in the head. How hard is that?

Oh, wait, but we can't have convicted felons getting guns right? Who knows what trouble they're cause?

Well if the fucker's so much trouble then why isn't the fucker behind bars? He's a CONVICTED felon. He's seen the inside of a courtroom before.

Look, whenever you want to make a list of different people who get to have different numbers of rights, then that's just a bullshit ploy to take away everyone's rights.

Do we have laws that forbid convicted terrorists from being able to attend a Mosque? No. Do we have laws that ban journalists from writing if they're caught plagiarizing? No. Do we have laws that forbid convicted white supremacists from possessing Klan uniforms? No.

For some reason, the RIGHT to own a gun is seen as different. Well the gun grabbers say, sure, you can kill people with a gun. Well, you can kill people by shouting "fire" in a crowded theater too, but there aren't any laws that require that we gag movie goers.

What this boils down to is that the gun grabbers don't believe in the right of self-defense. They don't think I should be allowed to defend myself. Without knowing a damn thing about self-defense, they just say, "let the police do it".

Well I got news for ya. The fucking Jesus Freaks don't think women should have a right to an abortion. Gun grabbers say the only purpose of a gun is to kill. Well a Jesus Freak could also say the only purpose of an abortion is to kill.

Look, you either believe that rights are sacrosanct or you don't. This country was founded upon the principle that we're all endowed with certain inalienable rights. I don't like people going to church. But it's their FUCKING RIGHT to go to church if that's the delusional shit they want to expose themselves to. Jesus Freak may not like someone getting an abortion. Too fucking bad, it's her FUCKING RIGHT to have one. And it's my fucking right to have a gun. If you don't like that fact, repeal the 2nd amendment. Until then, piss off.
