Are "gun-rights" advocates who say they "need" combat-style weaponry to "protect the nation from dictatorship" dangerous anarchists who are endangering the REAL Second-Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans with their paranoid, anti-government rants?

Education is something you should have invested in MORON MUNSTER

A Republic

A Republic, on the other hand, has a very different purpose and an entirely different form, or system, of government. Its purpose is to control The Majority strictly, as well as all others among the people, primarily to protect The Individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and therefore for the protection of the rights of The Minority, of all minorities, and the liberties of people in general. The definition of a Republic is: a constitutionally limited government of the representative type, created by a written Constitution--adopted by the people and changeable (from its original meaning) by them only by its amendment--with its powers divided between three separate Branches: Executive, Legislative and Judicial. Here the term "the people" means, of course, the electorate.

The chief characteristic and distinguishing feature of a Democracy is: Rule by Omnipotent Majority. In a Democracy, The Individual, and any group of Individuals composing any Minority, have no protection against the unlimited power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man.

Just cant remember being wrong eh ?? OK I'll look it up ! Be prepared to be the " MORON "!!! And yes , we went through this once before but I'd say your right-wing poo op fest must have made you all forget !

Hey munster and oneill, when is your new socialist demokratic party going to bring up this bombing and make a new law in the Congress to prevent these bombings in the future?

They should enact criminal background checks for potential bombers, mental checks, registration of all bombers, and lets not forget the background checks of private bomb buyers at bomb shows.

And oneill we are a Republic. Didn't we go through this once lol. Are you and munster brothers? What a couple of yayhoos you two are! haha!

Yea Munster do show me how we have a democracy, moron. And Fred keep dreaming of your socialist utopia, maybe someday.

that is true stick, but it was 'all' guns, and it affected whom?

Texas Senate votes to offer advanced handgun training for school employees

By Terrence Stutz

(dallasnews)

Mandatory background checks are a feel good thing and would not have prevented Newtown. According to the president, that what yesterday’s vote was about, preventing another Newtown. Yesterday’s vote was about gun control. When you have increased mandatory background checks, you have bigger lists of Americans on Gov’t lists. We can’t document illegals but we want to document gun owners. I have a better idea, let’s make a list of people most likely to use guns to kill other people. Only Newtown families who agreed with Obama got a free ride on AF1. Those who did not got to stay home.

Do you really want me to drag the facts back up tiredbrain !! You lost that one pilgrim !

When Tired & the tea party wingnuts yap about America being a "republic", they are thinking of "banana republics" like Guatemala, Venezuela, OR Texas!

even more inclusive gun-legislation can be put forth and passed. Perhaps gun-control advocates needed this small setback to make them angry enough to use ballots against bullets and kick the "stupids" out of both Congress and the Ohio Statehouse in 2014! ... The crazy gun-fetishists can gloat while they can! There WILL be reform, even if it has to happen state-by-state! The "Connecticut Effect" is still in effect!

Tired and the rest wouldn't know the meaning of "democracy" if it fell on their heads ... The Senate vote was 54-46 IN FAVOR of universal-background checks, but the gun-lobby stooges (in both parties) stacked-the-deck by using the unConstitutional filibuster gimmick that requires 60 votes to get anything done. This might be called the "totalitrianism of the minority" (which is partly Harry Reid's fault for not eliminating it when he had a chance in February). These tactics - including Gerrymandering districts and restricting voter eligibility - only indicate that rightwing fanatics like Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul, Jim Inhofe, Ted Cruze, ad. nauseum care NOTHING for either democracy or The Constitution (James Madison wrote that simple majority-rule should be the order in Congress) ... Since the Manchin/Toomey Bill was flawed anyway (there were prohibitions against universal gun-registration and other items that had no teeth), it's back-to-the-drawing board where ev

Munster doesn't like democracy when it goes against him. Even though its really a REPUBLIC, he still thinks we live in a democracy.

Do you really believe this is over ??? Your dumber than I thought !

One thing that wasn't "shot"...The 2nd Amendment.

And I'd say if your as% was the one shot you sure wouldn't be making fun of it ! That's just stupidity at its worst !

Regardless this isn't over by a long shot and the fact remains , no civilian needs to own a assault weapon !
