Gun Club For Liberals

[Expat]

Oh, man! Without your quote, I would never have seen that exercise in condescension! Remember: what I don't see can't irritate me!

It makes some threads down right humorous when you don't see more than half of the posts LOL

Indeed!

Remember the good old days when we were told here how President Obama was the best friend gun owners had ever had in the WH...
Maybe in a way he has been. He certainly has caused an uptick in gun ownership. Hopefully he woke some people up. But apparently not enough.

Haha here you go! As much as you can dislike the guy you cannot deny this!

Supporting the 2nd Amendment is a good start, I'd say.

Just have to jump into the pool: if you lean liberal, IMO that means you support, Feinstein, Pelosi, Maxine Waters, the Clintons, Cuomo, Obama, Schumer, Emanuel, Durbin, Obama, and a host of others but you get the idea. As a constitutional conservative, I vote GOP while disagreeing with a lot that they do. With the Dems, I disagree with about 99% of what they do to us or would do to us given the chance.

How can a person enjoy firearm ownership and at the same time support those who want to remove that ownership?

This is the internet. You want a less irritated life, switch off the computer.

It's good you're so knowledgeable about what INGO members can understand or not. Might as well close the thread. It's over our heads.

It should bother you (or maybe not) that you've included yourself with the "too many". Hey, if the shoe fits...

Perhaps it is time to vote third party rather than simply voting for one primary party simply because you don't like the other primary party.

Have considered it, but IMO the reality is that we are a two party system. If I agree with say, 80% of how the GOP behaves and 1% of how the Dems behave, well, my vote goes to the GOP. I'm still not convinced that Perot didn't give Clinton 8 undeserved years in the White House.

It appears that right now we have a one party system as the Republicans are in complete disarray, and in fact may not even exist as I remember them.

And thus ends my political opining.

The republicans and democrats have the same goal: To control us. The only difference is how they do it. By voting for one or the other only serves to perpetuate the way the system currently works. You want to change things for the better? Vote third party.

Too funny. Gotta love liberal logic, (pro gun) NRA = bad , (anti gun) liberal politics = good. Reminds me of the screwy gang on the 'vegetarian cattle ranchers forum'.

I don't buy that Republicans want to control us. I vote GOP and don't want to control anybody. I have rubbed elbows with several GOP pols, none of which expressed an interest to control me. A true GOP pol IMO wants to reverse our trend toward socialism. I have a real problem with those who wish to change my way of life, namely Dems.

Republicans have corporate interests above yours. What better way to control people than through their money?

Iguana Want to know how to control people better? How about naked, raw force... Why don't you ask the people of Venezuela and the Ukraine this morning? THAT is why the 2A matters. And those who would take it from you must be stopped. Period. No excuses. No quarter.

While I respect folks like Shibumiseeker and his opinions, there is a fundamental truth that must be remembered: No man can serve two masters. The same is true of RINO's - if you are a "while I respect hunters..." type, your 2A support is welcome - but should NOT EVER be counted upon.

This is why I keep repeating the mantra: We do not negotiate with terrorists and we do not negotiate with socialists/statists/leftists/whatever the hell you want to call them. And for exactly the same reason. (again some of the right-wing positions have this issue as well)

I am glad these folks support the 2A . That's nice. A vote for Obama/Pelosi/Reed is just as destructive to our freedoms if it comes from someone who says that they "support the 2A" as if it comes from Karl Marx himself. (again ditto for a RINO that won't stand up under fire - the only diff is that a congress-critter that's a RINO still adds a vote towards more pro-2a control of the house - even if they won't vote like that)


Anything less and you are on the slow road to Caracas, Kiev, etc. They will promise you freedom, gay rights, legal drugs, your favorite position on a divisive issue like abortion - whatever your liberal (or RINO) "happy button" is. They will tell you what you want to hear - UNTIL you are disarmed. Then the snake will bite you. But you have only yourself to blame. You knew what the liberal (or RINO, in fairness) snake was when you picked it up.

I'd also add that Dems have corporate interests also. Example; Obama taking over GM. Bloomberg maintaining his billions so he can continue to try to enslave us, etc..

I read polyamorous with great interest. I wonder if that refers to folks who like Glock and S&Ws? ****snip****

What you are looking for is polyarmorous. FIFY

I've never seen a "gun club" ... but the meuseum down the road houses an expansive personal collection that includes a gun axe.

Aluminum bats are hollow. Perhaps you could build a 20 guage into one and have a gun club.

 

[dmonsche]

I don't have a political affiliation, I vote for the person who best represents my interests and 2A rights are very high on that list, but so are some other things.

Lots of people around here throw "liberal" around as a pejorative and don't seem to realize or care that a significant portion of those who are affiliated with liberal political parties ARE gun owners and 2A supporters. It's REALLY stupid to alienate those people because those are the people that the liberal politicians listen to and if you can get that group of people to pressure the liberal politicians to be less interested in being anti-gun then you make far more progress than simply voting for yet another conservative politician who will sell out the 2A whenever (s)he feels it will gain a few points.

Way too many people in the gun community take the stand of "if you don't agree with every political view I have then you are anti-2A scum" and that is, quite figuratively, shooting our gun rights in the foot. I don't want to elect a conservative politician, I want to elect a pro-gun politician, and if the person I vote for doesn't get elected, I want the other person to also be pro-gun, even if it isn't quite as much. The best way to do that is to be welcoming to ALL gun owners. Turning them away just because they are "liberal" works against this.

Thank You for this! I am NOT a conservative and I'm NOT religious at all but I'm a gun owner and avid shooter. When I first started lurking on INGO I was really turned off. I hated it, Every post seemed like it was bad mouthing liberals. If it wasn't for an old friend convincing me to come back I would have thought everyone on here was a crazy religious right wing nut job ( now i realize there are only a few of you) lol. Trust me when you go on about Socialism and Communism and bashing people with different views than you it's not helping the cause. This place should embrace all 2nd amendment supporters not just christian republicans.

That there is what us "crazy, religious, right wing nut jobs" would call "irony"......(I added commas to your quote if that's okay? I wouldn't want to offend you....LOL!) The point being, "Right Wingers" have no monopoly on name calling and preconcieved notions about Christianity.....

Here is that "Right Winger" Jon Stewart pointing out this irony......
