>You seem to see the gun thing as a freedom issue, with Americans' rights being seriously abridged if we are not all allowed to blow each other away. < Exqueeze me?? I most seriously do not advocate blowing each other away. But I do posit that Americans' rights will be seriously abridged if we allow the Second Amendment to be hollowed out from within like the wasp's caterpillar. >When the undercover police Chicago Mayor Richard Daley sent into gun stores posing as criminals came out with all the firepower they wanted, it confirmed his worst suspicions< And just how do you "pose as a criminal"? The Brady law mandates a wait and a background check. This'll unmask the poseurs in a hurry. >Chicago undercover police dressed up like mafia members, black street gang members, outlaw biker chicks and militiamen,< Dressed up? You are supporting "lookism".
