    That's what they must do to Republicans. I sure wouldn't know.

    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    I used to walk down the street with a .22 when I was a kid. Cops came by and there was no problem. Perfectly legal.

    Shame we can't leave an America like that to the youngers.

    There were much less restrictions in those days. Probably a lot more common sense, too.

    Thanks for backpedaling. Yes, if a person is a fucking terrorist or shooting at a police officer or anyone else, honest people have a right to defend themselves.

    not backpedaling at all.....99.99% of the people killed by policemen are actively engaged in trying to kill someone else......you're talking about what, eight cases in two years?......

    Did you walk down the street with a .22 when you were a kid and the cops gave you no bullshit, er wut?
    It was a respected right back in them days.
    No kids had to worry about walking around with a .22

    Yeah, they were not walking around with bigger guns because we were kids, yeah.

    that number might be a bit high......I might say 90%, but not 99.99%

    My best friend in HS and I would walk a couple blocks down our residential street carrying 12 gauge shotguns to go dove hunting in nearby fields.

    Imagine all the panicky 911 calls if kids did that today.

    according to the WP there are about 1000 killed by police a year.......90% would mean 100 innocent people a year.......I think we would have had a lot more press if that were true........I'll settle on 99%.....that gives us 10 per year.....maybe high, but close enough......
