I appreciated the Nov. 17 news article “Some common ground in contentious gun debate” and fully support any bipartisan attempt at gun regulation. But we will never find consensus so long as those who defy gun control believe that the Second Amendment is on their side. This falsehood is too often reinforced by the media. Responsible reporting on the Second Amendment and gun issues should recognize the debate is over its original intent and not promote that one-sided interpretation. |

Yet another libtard arguing the 2A was a collective right only intended for militia service. Like a vampire, this argument appears near impossible to kill off.

Sheeeeyeah, right.
Founder after founder after founder expressed the understanding that the right to arms was individual, and unalienable.
Whence come these lying ninnies? |

I don't know what country Walter is living in, but all I see are states and localities coming to their senses, one-by-one, eliminating (or severely relaxing) gun-free zones. Some are even removing permit requirements to carry in-state, and that movement is growing along with state after state coming to embrace Stand Your Ground self-defense laws.
The vast majority of states have reciprocity of some kind.
Hell, there's even a national reciprocity bill pending in Congress.
Walter should change his name to Cassandra.
Or open his eyes. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
