I always concern myself with the facts, but I did not intend to draw you into an argument. For that I am sorry. He should be considering what he is doing, and whom he is upsetting by being anti-second amendment.

I figure that if I'm carrying a gun, whether it's loaded or not, you're less likely to rob the store I'm standing in.

I am not afforded that luxury here in MA, we have a *ahem* very liberal state government that doesn't allow it's citizens to even
think about carrying a gun anywhere, unless you have a wish to be arrested or hassled by the man.

I don't care whether our president is Black, White, Native American, or Asian in decent. That doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is that they love America with everything they have, will do
anything to protect her, and uphold the oath that they take on their inauguration day, "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability,
preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
