No government business here at all, Triple..nothing for someone like you to see at all. Just move along...

    Highball,

    I think I'll skip back and reply to what numbnuts thinks is some kind of trap for a constitutionalist.

    Care to join me?

    Go ahead, Captain...I have a slight problem responding civily to creatures such as that. I tend to get subjects locked or poofed...and wanted to leave that one open, where such a clever little pissant thought he boxed me in...

    No problem HB.

    Already finished with it.

    He didn't have much though.

    You know, the old "long on mouth" affliction. Triple seems to be infected with it and at least as far as it relates to me, he has no clue as to a mindset of freedom and limited government.

    We'll see how he responds on the other post.

    [;)][:D] Yeah Highball, I fell like I am on my game for some reason.

    Course, I'm about to open a bottle of wine, so if you see me degenerate, don't be too hard on me, okay?[:o)]

    The next time someone tells you that we MUST have regulations on RKBA because, you know, we don't let people "yell Fire! in a crowded theater", consider this:

    We don't take away or restrict an individual's MEANS or ABILITY to use his R2FS for ANY reason - no matter what they have done or said.

    Why do people, especially self proclaimed "gun people" think the RKBA should be held to a different standard?

    When we start burning out the tongues of people for committing Slander or "yelling Fire! in a crowded theater", then and only then will the analogy be apropos.
