If you're too stupid to understand the meaning of 2Xtreme21's transparently clear post, it's not at all surprising that you find inane right-wing rhetoric so appealing.

Well butthole, he said that statement implying I had said that. He obviously quoted me, right? My question to him was a retort implying that I never said anything of the sort. But you are too fucking retarded to figure that out.

Go figure

The Obama Marxists want to ban US citizens from owning guns so that they don't get across the porous border to Mexico? Only Marxists could make this stuff up. Of course the gangs in the US will be let alone with their weapons and probably given gov jobs. We have psychos running the country .

Marxists? I don't think that word means what you think it means.

When was the last time any government plan ever solved a social problem?
Answer is :Never!"

They should just come out and announce that their goal is a total ban on all firearms so they send you to reeducation camps.

There is absolutely nothing the Gun industry likes more than a Democratic Administration.

nothing.

They laugh themselves all the way to the bank, as the single-issue sheeple take their fear and paranoia to the gun store and create nothing but profit.

Yep. Sales of guns and particularly ammo went thru the roof after the 2008 election in a frenzy of paranoid delusion... which has come to nothing, obviously.

It only came to nothing because Obama had bigger fish to fry. If the economy was alright and healthcare had gone smoothly, rest assured he would have gone after them. The Obama administration made it's views on guns quite clear with the proposed South Korea sale of surplus Korean-War era M1s. They were afraid they would "fall into the wrong hands". Yeah, go find me the last drive-by, assassination, or robbery that was done with a semi-automatic Korean War era rifle. :rolleyes:

So while you're busy bashing those who took it a tad too far, keep in my that they had the right idea, just overzealous in execution. For my part, I didn't participate because I figured, as previously mentioned, that Obama had bigger fish to fry. I was right.

Project much? You really have only paranoia to guide your opinion as to what Obama might have done if things were different.

Not to mention that the last thing american gun manufacturers want is the re-importation of cheap guns their grandfathers sold 60 years ago- it cuts into their own sales.

The Obama Admin could well have made their decision on the basis of that, for all we know, used the other story as cover.

Another trick they learned from repubs... don't lie about what you're doing, lie about why you're doing it...

I'm projecting my paranoia?

The supports for my argument include Obama's record as a liberal (and an ineffectual one at that), and the word straight from the mouth of the Obama administration; all supported by valid sources. You're attempting to undermine the validity of my sources by suggesting unproven conspiracy, followed by your irrelevant opinion about Republicans. This last bit is particularly telling, as despite it being irrelevant, you just had to get it out didn't you? My even suggesting that the Republicans had something right struck a bit of a nerve there eh? Yeah, I'm definitely the paranoid one here. :rolleyes:

Assuming it's evening where you are, feel free to think about how much you hate Republicans before you go to sleep at night. Let the Big Bad Gun Industry haunt your dreams if you like, just remember it's all in your head, and most of us really don't give a shit about your opinion in this matter.
