Gun Control & RKBA

(20,709 posts)And when you're done, you should go back and read this post of mine about reasoning under uncertainty. My guess is that the Dems just want to steer clear of the issue in order to not rile up people like you and the teabaggers, who are likely to believe loony conspiracy theories with no evidence to back them up. But that's just a guess. Fortunately, unlike you, I am capable of reasoning under uncertainty:

Anyway, what I do know is that the evidence available supports Eban, and that Issa and Grassley have been routinely cherry-picking the evidence to build a misleading case. Let's not forget, Issa is on the record (on your favorite pro-gun TV network) supporting the conspiracy theory that this whole thing was a ploy to pass gun control laws. No, I haven't read the entire Issa-Grassley report (and neither have you), but what I did read is just the same distortions and half-truths that I've come to expect from the GOP. I'm not going to read all 300 (or whatever) pages of this junk, just on the off chance that some key fact is hidden on page 189.
