Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness are inalienable Human Rights which supersede all other rights. A well regulated militia is a Constitutional Right that is not being regulated well enough and is infringing on my Happiness.

"If the republicans don't stop acting like children we'll have to disarm them. It's that simple."

I'm no republican, but I am curious: How will you disarm them, or anyone with whom you disagree, but with guns?

I'm sure you don't mean that you're going to hold your breath until all those guns go away, right? So, to disarm someone, you'll be sending guns to do that nasty business. And since you're sending the guns, you're effectively threatening to kill someone who doesn't act as you'd prefer.

Sounds pretty sick. And if you give your "leaders" than kind of carte blanche, what'll you do when they decide they don't like how YOU act?

What if there weren't any political parties or candidates? Would you miss them? If you didn't have any "leaders", could you manage your own life? If you don't think strangers can be trusted to not harm you, why do you insist on hiring strangers to rule you?

It's a busted system. Best to find a way out.

I'll tell you what my friend....regardless of politics (cause I don't feed into that s*it) ....since you don't think it's dangerous enough in today's society to own a firearm...you meet me at the Sheriff's office and turn your's in and I'll give them my permits and turn mine in....deal?

I'm well aware of who Aileen Wuornos is....she was a female Serial Killer....and since it's so rare for a serial killer to be anything but a white man she has 4,000 documentaries made on her....I'm not getting your point....are you saying this hooker was a Republican?

From Wikipedia: "Aileen Wuornos
A.K.A. � The Florida Highway Killer
Between 1989 and 1990, Aileen Wuornos murdered seven men. Her notorious killing spree ended up on the big screen with the movie Monster. Aileen supported herself, and her lover Tyria, through prostitution. She claimed her murders were carried out in self-defense against men who were attempting rape � but the court felt the bullet-ridden bodies told a different tale. She was executed by the state of Florida by lethal injection in 2002."

She claimed they all raped her and she had to kill them. How'd that work out for her?

Highonlife I might let a few republican women keep their guns since they've never killed anyone but their husbands so far. Oh wait there was that serial killer prostitute that killed all those truckers in Florida. Oh well.

Who needs any politicians? I respect that you don't think Hillary is the right person to lead this country. I really do. BUT, Donald Trump pretty much is ensuring that she will be. I hope you respect that I don't think that Trump is right to lead this country. He's tapped in to a lot of what all of us are feeling.... but.... he's a loose cannon and not qualified. I may complain about my boss or my job sometimes, but I don't go off on the boss or quit every day. I think of solutions to better my situation. Sorry about the gun control cliche but we don't need a "loose cannon" in the white house. If he can't maintain himself during a general election, do you really thing he's gonna have an ounce of diplomacy or actual leadership as president? You can clap all you want for him but you'd be lying if you said that you haven't cringed and some of his antics... If you didn't cringe, you deserve him.

A lot of us go blindly with the candidate that is in front of our most identified party or ideal, and we oppose whom we feel is on the "other" side falling victim to the rampant propaganda... but do any of us really look at the person running from our own perspective, ideas, and frame of thinking? I'd venture the answer is NO most of the time. We're sheep being fooled by a bunch of wolves... on EVERY side.

Who needs a shrill, corrupt, lying harpy? I don't know, but WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?

I doubt seriously anyone on this site owns or knows anyone else that owns a fully automatic weapon.

I do but then I know several collectors and class 3 dealers.

There has not been one incident of any legally owned full auto weapon be used in any crime.

Actually there is it was a cop who used a Mac 10 to shoot his wife.

If the republicans will turn in their ammo they can keep their guns.

and what does a person even need a "semi-automatic weapon" for? What use does a private citizen have for an AR-15.

and ole sarge. I was in the military for 4 years to answer your question.

Who needs or wants an automatic weapon? One shot, one kill any more is a wast of ammo.

The militia at Lexington & Concord had better rifles than the tyrant who would have them disarmed. And that's as it should be.
