B) ALL HCP holder undergo a FBI background check. EVERY single one.<br>

      <![CDATA[>>i see that you and gast chose to live in FEAR....of crazed gunmen in costco, of muslims praying in mosques, of gay couples desiring to raise families....<<<br>
<br>
Not sure where you feel the need to play the gay card. I guess when you have neither facts, logic nor reason, you can always fling out the homphobic shit card & hope some of it sticks...............<br>
<br>
For the record, *I* could care less about who does what with whom & when.

      <![CDATA[So, brian, if one of your loved ones is out and about and suddenly find his/her self the victim of a rape or mugging or somebody has just decided to pound the crap out of them and Bobsguns happens upon the scene...to be consistent, you'd have to prefer that he didn't interfere. I know you'd at least want him to dial 911, wouldn't you.

      <![CDATA[so if we're strictly going by semantics,  what pray tell makes you a "well-regulated MILITIA"? you've said yourself you flaunt the law by carrying even where it's not permitted....you've said yourself you'll flaunt the law when it comes to buying what YOU want, when YOU want it.

<br>
The only correct thing you've written so far, sir.<br>
<br>
If you'll go read the Federalist Papers, you'll find the founding fathers indeed wanted the citizenry to be a counterweight to an army & prevent the US from becoming a bananna republic.<br>
<br>
Clearly, most of you don't understand the "shall not be infringed" part.............

A perfect one. Just as an artist places crucifixes in a glass of urine while exercising their 1st Amendment rights "because they can".
