Quote:Actually, I am, and I have, if you take a look back at my reply to Byrd and others above. What I was calling an "echo chamber" is the typical liberal argument,
The problem here is as an 'outsider' looking in, I see that type of behaviour coming from both sides and a better way forward will only ever happen when ALL sides take an honest look around instead of labeling the 'enemy' which you did within the first 2 sentences....
Quote: NOR has it ever been seriously proposed, , so I'm not sure where you're getting that...As a member on the other site for many years. When ever this type of question comes up I've offered similar opinions as to my earlier post. Only to be chastized as "a Liberal trying to take our guns" because Im British by many posters. I've never posted that in my 20 years on that particular forum yet still got it as the first response everytime. I also suggested that if certain behavoiurs to do with mental health are flagged then maybe a system should but into action, and again, I was yelled at as a liberal. Never been a liberal.
Quote:Regarding 'militias', this word is troublesome because of how it has been demonized by the left (not the right). A "well regulated militia' is part of the Constitution as you likely know, but so many people misunderstand the intent of this statement.I think part of the problem is the ambiguity surrounding that word when it was inillity written and how it compares/is used today.
