You are beginning to sound batshit crazy. flamin lib Sep 2016 #36
flamin lib advocates voting away citizen's right to keep and bear arms GreydeeThos Sep 2016 #37

Most Western nations DON'T ban detachable-magazine semiautos... benEzra Sep 2016 #42
Live by your own? flamin lib Sep 2016 #43
That you consider rifle ownership to be comparable to human trafficking and child porn... benEzra Sep 2016 #44
Excuse me but I seem to have missed something. flamin lib Sep 2016 #45
