I honestly didn't mean for it to come off any other way. I have tons of respect for those who serve our country, especially those that do so during war time. My father was a member of the 1st. Infantry Division during Vietnam and my grandfather spent a lot of time as a mine sweeper in front of Patton's tanks during WWII.
You came off just right. I posted the sites to support your post; it was very thought provoking. I am opposed to gun control and wonder what else those who favor it may try next. The Supreme Court has already removed Bible reading from the schools; how close are they to removing Bibles from our homes? Remember what religion Obama supports; the idea may not be as far fetched as some may think.

It is insane to believe that people kill people only with guns. Do they keep stats on how many die by knives, baseball bats, pieces of pipe, choking, etc like they do on guns?

When I think about the court being called "Supreme" it just sticks in my craw. There is only one who is Supreme and He handed down the Supreme laws to Moses on tablets of stone. jmo
