Well GForsyth, Sorry about your friends, but you have got understand about verbal personal attacks on these bbs...most people would not say these things to your face, however I would have no problem with standing up in a room full of HCI members and expressing my disapproval of their opinions. The reason you are getting so much "flak" from the pro-gun side is not because we love gun so much, its because we view it as a matter of liberty, freedom, & personal choice. Or at least, I view it that way. As far as your comment about "anti-gun control responders seem to be rather overpowering" I don't apologize for those who came here to fight. You threw the gauntlet down, we're just here fighting through it.

The problem is I have seen very few pro-control argument on this thread that hold any water or that I don’t have a argument against. Most pro-control arguments are not very well thought out, they are just regurgitated sound bites from anti-gun politicians.
