More right winged spin and bullshit. There are few liberals looking for an outright ban. On the other hand, MOST conservatives don't even want a BACKGROUND check.

Explain to me the specific circumstances in which a legally prohibited person can purchase a firearm legally in the United States without a background check.

For anyone thinking of accusing the left of fomenting the atmosphere that lead to the shooting: Here is Rand Paul from 6/23/16: View attachment 750746

How disingenuous for you to compare the historical reason for the 2nd Amendment with some liberal nut gunning down people at a baseball game. You do realize that Rand Paul was at the baseball game and was shot at, right? Your post is in very poor taste and really says a lot about the liberal mentality. It is also ironic that you'd select the most freedom oriented person in our government and imply he is a tyrant that should be shot at. Can you sink any lower?

Paul’s communications director, Sergio Gor, provided Mediaite with a statement about the tweet, noting that it was sent by a staffer:

“The tweet you reference was part of live tweeting of someone else’s speech and it was done by a staffer. Those are not Senator Paul’s words.”

It is something Rand Paul would say, and he is correct to say it. For you insane liberals to compare his correct and historically accurate quote to shooting people at a baseball game is beyond sad and pathetic.

Are you really stupid enough and enough of a jerk to blame Bernie Sanders for this assassination attempt?

You continually amaze me with your lack of reading comprehensions skills, context, and your general lack of ability to understand things. I'd like to humbly recommend that if you don't understand something the first time you read it, read it again and try to understand what the writer is saying without projecting your own perspectives and biases onto it. If you still don't understand the words, meaning, or context, go upstairs from the basement and ask your mom to help explain it to you.

If I can be of further help, please let me know.

If you proclaim the right "to shoot at the government when it becomes tyrannical," you have to expect that people will exercise that right--and that they will make their own determinations of just what "tyrannical" means.

How were the Republicans at the baseball field being tyrannical? Would they not share their baseball with the shooter? You people need to get real. You are really not this dense, are you? Are you? Really?

Who said anything about the travel ban?
The shooter was/QUOTE]
Guilt by association? Logic error, as usual for Bulldog00.

You attempted to use Hodgkinson's support for Sanders to establish guilt by association, a logic error on your part.
My reading comprehension skills are just fine: your logic is not.

You really need to get your mom to help you with this. You are not understanding things. Someone said I blamed the shooting on Muslims. I replied that the shooting was done by a Bernie supporter, not a Muslim.

I obviously don't blame Bernie for the shooting but he does attract the violent left wing nut jobs like the shooter. The left has really gone insane with Trump Acceptance Resistance Disorder.

I have to ask the same of you.

The victims were members of the majority party in Congress. If you believe you're striking a blow against a tyrannical government, it doesn't matter when and where you do it.

Are you really trying to equate the populace resisting a tyrannical government like what happened during the American Revolution with the actions of the pathetic Washington shooter?

There is no comparison, none at all and for you to try to make that comparison is destestable and insulting.

Who decides when it's justifiable to "shoot at" a "tyrannical government"? Rand Paul?

Once you employ that kind of rhetoric, you run the risk of people taking you seriously.

Go read a history book. I honestly can't take you seriously.

You think Rand Paul was only talking about history? Something that doesn't apply anymore?

When you tell people they have the right to shoot at government, you're not just talking about the past.

Stop equating the Washington shooter to the masses overthrowing tyranny. It is an insult to our ancestors.

First of all this "historical reason" for the 2nd amendment is nothing but BULLSHIT!!

Bullshit made up "out of whole cloth" as they say by the NRA in the 70's

The 2nd amendment does not say that or even remotely suggest that was the reason for it to have been added to the constitution which also does not say anything at all to even remotely support the idea.

Neither Ronald Reagan or the NRA seemed to give shit about "what the 2nd amendment says" when he signed the Molford act, a law that is still "on the books" in CA. to this day.

Second of all "masses" start with one
