2nd Amendment rights under attack in the House

I was caught in a similar job a while back. Problem was, this massive VB web project didn't want to convert to C#. As far as I know they're still running that VB.Net, framework 1.1 app. :doh:

Indeed! Kidnappers and Molesters for example. We certainly need to put far more effort into dealing with those monsters than we need to put towards gun control.

You're making sense, are you being sarcastic perchance?

Nope.

Then my apologies. I didn't want to say anything if you weren't, but it's near impossible to tell sometimes.

How about this[^]? Looks like it's already possibly under attack in the Porkulus bill.

It's simple you implement it the way the Peoples Republic of Tassachusetts has. Have a very small number of seats in the required class and arrange that they're all filled by politically connected/anti-gun people; before announcing the date/times to the general public.

Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots. -- Robert Royall

Yeah, I know, that's on me. I try to keep that in mind when reading replies. I love to see the humor in things whenever possible. These days it seems there is a lot of material around. While I might joke about what I would like to do to perpetrators I don't believe I would joke about the victims. Child Molesters (anyone that preys on children), Rapists or any violence against women, Terrorists are all the scum of the earth for me. Sure there are others but those just cause my blood to boil.

Why in God's name, would they? :confused: Anybody who calls himherself a .NET programmer and can't work in both languages is kidding himself. I note that on your website, you don't say that you won't sell your work to people using VB. . . Presumably that's because it doesn't make any difference which language they are using - any difference at all.

Ooooo that's good. Man, I'm going to start trying to make a living of figure out loopholes to screw people out of their rights. It might even land me in government someday :laugh: Seriously that's messed up. Surprised nobody has brought this up and held their reps accountable to change the law.

I know the urge to arm yourself because that's what I did. I was trained in firearms. I'd walk to the hospital when my husband was sick. I carried a concealed weapon. I made the determination that if somebody was going to try to take me out, I was going to take them with me." ~ U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein; C-Span April 27, 1995

your average masshole is quite happy with having bureaucratically disarmed his neighbors and would soil his lace panties if handed a gun so it doesn't bother him personally. X|

I visit the peoples republic once in awhile. My aunt lives out there so I'm aware. It's quite interesting talking with her about politics and such because coming from Iowa she grew up more or less conservative and to live in the midst of so many liberals but still keep her views is interesting. Much like me she's more moderate and flexible but it's still interesting to watch what goes on out there. Pure entertainment if you don't live there :laugh:

A friend of mine -- an avowed socialist and Castro sympathiser, for whatever that might be worth once pointed out that whatever the government wants to control, it claims it is doing it to protect the children. One of the most respected liberal Supreme Court judges we have ever had said, "Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficent. The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding" And for the record, I've never killed anybody the government didn't ask me to. I have a weapon to make sure that it's difficult for any member of MS13 to kill me.

Agreed. The worst of evil humans. Might add con men who soak old people for all their worth too. People who prey on others are evil, those who do it to the most vunerable are the most dispicable.

I have no doubt. But, are you denying that kids getting access to guns is a problem in the US, one that leads to deaths of said children ?

Yes, but the 'liberty' to own guns is bloody stupid, and the defences and reasons given for it, insane.
