You can lead a liberal to wisdom, but you can't stop his bleeding heart.

Who gets to decide who is responsible and who is not? All men are created equal, are they not? So today the standard is a felony criminal record. Tomorrow liberals will make conservative opinions into felony crimes. What part of "shall not be infringed" don't you understand?
