What are you going to do this week to support expanded background checks?

218. "Stumble"?

"I wondered how you stumbled upon that so long after I posted it and then I realize your friends down under featured it."

Theres this...feature, its called..."bookmark"...

My "friends down under"? Oh, I get it, that was supposed to be a snide burning insult right?

Let me think a minute...Wasn't it you that said earlier that:

"Here's a tip. If you're actually interested in informing someone and having a discussion, don't begin by insulting them. When you do so, you close off all communication. They don't care what you say after that and won't even read it.."

Yep, sure was:

I guess by your own standards, you're not interested in having a discussion, and in violation of this groups SOP.

How would an SOP violation by a pro-gun poster be handled in your protected group?


To put a finer point on it:

You sure know how to suggest standards for everyone else that you yourself waste no effort in attempting to adhere to, and you sure are quick to point it out when others don't adhere to them.

How efficient of you.

"Amazingly, adopting a position supported by 94% of the population is not extremist. Rather, opposing background checks puts you among only 6% of the nation. I was going to say with the Tea Party, but I see below that even a majority of them support expanded background checks. Opponents of background checks are to the right of the Tea Party. Mull that one over."

Amazingly, the position in question in this subthread was your position on rewriting the second amendment- which to be very specific was an assertion that you'd delete it. That position is contrary to not just 80ish percent of the American People, but contrary to the Democratic Party Platform as well.

Was that position espoused by you? Oh yes:

Is that position an extremist position? Oh yes.


Beyond that, you're assigning a position to me which I do not hold. I have told you before, more than once, that I do not oppose background checks on private sales inside gunshows or outside them, providing that there are certain common sense protections and that the specifics of the legislation itself make sense.

Furthermore, WHY are you assigning a position to me which I do not hold? Oh, because I'm pro-gun. Nevermind...

Mull that one over.
