    Herman Cain on gun control and the 2a. Anyone know?

    So, would you be okay with each state deciding whether you could practice your religion, speak freely, petition the government for redress of grievances? Would you be okay with each state deciding whether its police could arbitrarily strip search you for no reason at all, or monitor your phone...

    Romney and guns?

    Vote for a flip-flopper? Which one? Unfortunately, the best indicator of future performance is past performance. Romney has been a flip-flopping backstabber. Most likely future role? Flip-flopping backstabber. It's not just that he changes positions with the political winds. It's...

    Herman Cain on gun control and the 2a. Anyone know?

    I always figured that a politician who will lie to you during the campaign is just plain dishonest and should be removed from consideration as soon as possible. If they lie to you when they need your vote, what stops them from doing much worse once they DON'T need your vote? Innate dishonesty...

    Herman Cain on gun control and the 2a. Anyone know?

    Cain's stance on the Second Amendment is a talking point - and a self-contradictory one at that. See http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2011/06/10/242793/anti-gun-herman-cain/ Watch the video. In his own words. He essentially says, "I support the Second Amendment - and I think the states should...

    Romney and guns?

    To see where Romney stands on the issues, just take this short quiz: http://boycotts4paul.com/MittRomney.pdf Once you have, you'll have a very good idea where he stands on the Second Amendment.

    Going to a gun show for the first time

    Lots of times the best day to go to the show is the last day of the show. The serious sellers frequently would rather knock a few bucks off than pack it up and haul it to the next show. This is even more true on a quantity buy (several thousand rounds of ammo). If you want to have some fun...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    One generally considers preventing human starvation as a "good" - but there are those who consider (with some justification) that the human herd needs culling. Do you attach a higher value because of some societal status you attach to the antlers? Perhaps that's where attitudes need...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    I assure you, I am not "trolling", though it is increasingly clear that the Constitutional and legal fundamentals I've put forth are foreign to many who post here. I look at it as an opportunity to educate. You should see it as an opportunity to learn. Actually, the "mindset" is one of...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    I believe the overriding question is whether one has the responsibility to obey an unjust (or unconstitutional) law. Once we determine that the law is correct, then the question of whether breaking the law is justified by a greater good. There is no reason to obey an illegal law (aside from...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    True. But the deer population is not decimated. http://wildlifecontrol.info/deer/pages/deerpopulationfacts.aspx Consequently, the thrust of your statement is incorrect. Incorrect. see http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/16/AR2009111601598.html Incorrect...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    Incorrect. See http://blog.timesunion.com/wildlife/who-owns-wildlife/2/ An interesting hypothesis, but generally incorrect. The "price" of deer (tag) is artificially established by the government and is not a function of market demand. Were it otherwise, the cost of a deer tag would...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    Whoa! A deer that has been eating your plants on your land "belongs to the state"? Well, then, at the very least, the state owes your for grazing. And in any case where such an animal causes damage, the state should be held liable. Since the deer overpopulation in many northeastern states...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    I think the hidden (and mistaken) assumption is that all laws are inherently good. If that were the truth, there would be little dissent in government. But the truth is, there are a lot of bad laws, and perversion of law is endemic - especially to the Feral [sic] Government. The root of...

    Questionable Family Hunting Traditions?

    That's one approach. Unfortunately, it amounts to begging the people who barred you from doing what you want with your own land to please, please, please let me do what I want on my own land. If you're worth billions, it's simple. You just sue until they surrender. Otherwise, you're likely...
