A Fight We Can't Afford to Have

Post by tommyg »

Sorry to hear that Mr. Cotton is ill I hope he gets over it soon. He is right about don't make threats
Name calling is stupid and makes us look like inmature rabble
I will be at the Rally in Austin this Sat at 12pm state capitol bldg
Please bring as many pro-gun people with you as possible.

:mad5 I have seen a bad thing on this forum lately Members are bashing each other
and ridiculeing other's thoughts and calling them names The last thing we need
is to fight amoung ourselves we are a team and it takes a team to beat the current Crisis we have
to stick together or we are done for. For the sake of our second amendment and for the sake of our nation
work together and be tolerant of other team members even if you don't like therm personally :banghead:

:iagree:

But we should also be able to have a discussion (both civil and rational, of course) about WHAT we are doing and if an idea is silly, useless, great, etc without someone getting their feelings hurt.

I have not seen that, but ok. I am on board with civility.

I hope Mr. Cotton feels better.

Except maybe in response to people saying we should be reasonable and compromise again, even though we got nothing in return the last 29 times gun owners compromised with domestic enemies of the United States Constitution.

That's not compromise. That's appeasement.

I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

See, I'm a liberal. In fact, i'm pretty much a pinko commie except when it comes to guns.

I'm here because I agree with you all on the 2nd amendment. We can disagree all we want on the other things, and thats great, but let's remember why we're all here.
