    Also I can’t get by the adamant stance by so many national candidates on abortion. In the late 90’s into the early 2000’s several of my state’s more conservative democratic candidates were pretty much abandoned financially because they wouldn’t embrace the pro death movement publicly. One, many of them were not for abortion at any cost and two, they knew it would be political suicide here to do so. Didn’t matter. Now we’re cherry red and it’s going to be hard to get back to purple…which is where most of us really are.
    So you are in a well-trained militia?
    Warren Burger the Chief justice of the supreme court said
    The gun lobbyists interpretation of the 2nd amendment is the greatest fraud, I repeat the greatest fraud, on the American people by a special interests group. that I have seen in my lifetime.
    The real purpose of the 2nd amendment was to insure that state armies, the militia, would be maintained for the defense of the state. The very language of the 2nd refutes that it was intended to guarantee every citizen an unfettered right to any kind of weapon he or she desires.

    Burger … drawn like a … well … like a gun by the gun-grabbers.

    Might as well be the opinion of Hamilton Burger … it carries about as much weight.

    He was long before your pretend gun grabbers. Since that court case, we have been deluged by shootings, killing and mass murders.Apparently your love of guns makes you immune from a society that has to teach little children what to do in a school shooting. We have a mass shootings nearly every day in America. Are you OK with that? Nearly 20 million guns were bought last year in America. Do you think they made America safer? Do you see that as evidence for your imaginary gun grabbers?Burger was Chief Justice of the Supreme court. His views based in law and great legal experience. I do not give your views the same weight and the carnage since they prove he was right and you are wrong.
