These are the same people who call me commie, fascist, liberal, and other things they believe are bad just because I disagree with their attempted methods of rationalizing their obsessions. I endured a 1200 email flak attack from these freaks once. They can't pry their cold dead minds away from their compulsions, and treat every disagreement with their propaganda front as an invitation to a cyber O.K Corral, and they are constitutionally unable to restrain themselves from ad infinitum ad nauseum propagandizing. I know full well to whom, and to what, I am speaking when I address them. I own five guns, and realize that the safest world is one where all sane and competent noncriminal adults can easily exercise their constitutional right to keep and bear, while the kids, psychos and criminals have such access blocked as well as we pragmatically can, but they smell a would-be Maoist dictator behind even the most reasonable efforts to effect same, and rail interminably against !
them.
