haha, we both know the lizard gets eaten alive, despite its best efforts. Why fight so hard against the inevitable? Why not expand your world view and accept what is best for everyone? Stupid American.

thats fine with me to force them on the black market. no reason to allow them legal sales. then, hopefully leos can follow up and take down the straw purchaser or gun runner too.

Exactly hillrat.
Why continue to make it so fuking easy for straw purchasers to flood the streets with guns? Or crazy people to amass an arsenal? There is NO reason, other than mild inconvenience, for any sane gun owner to resist stricter legislation on gun sales. Who would seriously be inconvenienced if the limit was changed from 1 gun purchases a month (CA) to something more reasonable? Or a cross-referenced list of suspected criminal activity (gang membership), prescription drugs, and crazy rants on the internet?

hmmm, tell me again where gun sales and purchases are protected in the constitution... or access to federal lands for that matter.

They haven been doing a very good job for well over a decade now.
hmmm, probably gone to sh#t ever since you left, eh Ron?
They've been doing a FAR better job than if it had been left to the public.
Would YOU go shooting with biden?
Dunno... has HE shot anyone in the face lately?

And yes, I would go shooting with Biden
I'd feel safer with Cheney. The 28 gauge Perazzi he used was a pea shooter compared to the double barrel 12 gauge that Biden advises we blast away with at nothing in particular.

It's a pretty simple choice really. You have two idiot VPs, one who's heart is so frail he dare not shoot anything bigger than the smallest shotgun lots of money can buy, and the other who says you should run out on your veranda and blast away with a 12 gauge at the first sign of trouble...
If Biden had been hunting birds in a box that day it likely would have been a closed casket funeral.
Yeah call me crazy...

you know, people might start taking the v.p,s advice. when it comes around to court and prosecution it,ll become known as the biden defense.
mark my words, if repubs get smart and put up some fairly intelligent, moderate candidates instead of these tea party sweethearts theyve been running, and especially if dems get overconfident by putting hillary on the ticket, we,ll be looking at a fundamental political shift.
now if you dont think a conservative run electorate wouldnt clamp down on guns under the right circumstance, then you havent been paying attention. read- patriot act.
in the end, its not going to matter much who,s in control, its going to matter how the lower courts interpret thelatest supreme court ruling that stipulates an individual right with reasonable restrictions. thats what its about, thats where the debate lies. what is reasonable.
i doubt we,ll see much action on a fed level. individual states are where the actions at. watch, and see what happens. sup court probably wont look at the issue again, unless something of signifcant difference arises.
hedge can cry all he wants, the second isnt going anywhere soon.
sorry ron, but same for you. SOME new laws are coming, and its eventually going to play out at the state level, in district court. lets all hope the courts are more intelligent than this thread.

It was pointed out that this (http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.php?topic_id=1883519&msg=2110826#msg2110826); may have been Bridwell.
Hope we (I) didn't piss him away. Saw a slide show with some friends who were talking him up after the show. Seemed like a good guy with some sense of humor.
Sure hope he decides to contribute to more than the gun debate shitbox.
(also, I had a dream with Ron Anderson in it. He had a heavy Scandinavian accent, ranting about hunting bears and wanting to stuff them.)

Somehow I am unable to come up with any unacceptable outcome resulting from Joe Biden going hunting in heavy brush with Dick Cheney.

How about a compromise?
I'll go hunting with Biden, and consult Cheney on home defense.
