    Wayne LaPierre, the head of the NRA, said of Democrats: “What they want are more restrictions on the law-abiding. Think about that, their solution is to make you, all of you, less free.”http://nyti.ms/2CDBM66

        Kind of like speed limits and traffic signals. Not to mention the tyranny of forcing me to drive on the right side of the road. I want to drive on the left side.

        Baloney. This guy is a danger, precisely because he is so relentless, so armed with hard cash to throw at lawmakers and so slick at distorting the truth.

        I would have used a stronger word than "Baloney," but yes.

        Yes, but people don't usually say baloney any more so I figured it might have more of an impact. :)

        I grant your point. The fact that I homed in on that word proves it.

        A lot of my smoker friends said the same thing when we were expressing concern about second hand smoke.

        This is very true! And when they started banning smoking in restaurants they described it as an assault on their freedom as well.

        No dude, we really just don’t want our kids killed at schools and churches by military grade weapons anymore.

        Instead of teachers unions worrying about $5 copays, maybe they could install metal detectors or hire armed guards

        Stop making excuses for the NRA. We need a ban on military grade weapons for civilians. Full stop.
