A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take away everything you have. --Thomas Jefferson
Guns are responsible for killing people much the way pencils are responsible for misspelling words.
I see it as one non politician vs a proven power mad politician.....but to each his own....if you want to call her a wacko because she spoke out plainly about losing her son in a war that had questionable origins.....yep...guilty as charged then.

Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

Why did Sheehan not protest the war before her son died? I could at least respect and understand her position then.
For those who may find my previous comment insulting, here's a way to tell just what Party you belong with...
Which Party Are You?
----------------------------------
Are you a Democrat, Republican or Southern Republican?
Here is a little test that will help you decide.
The answer can be found by posing the following question:
You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the
corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the
knife, and charges at you. You are carrying a Glock cal .40, and you are an
expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.
What do you do?

Democrat's Answer:
Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
Does the man look poor! Or oppressed?
Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand. What does the law say about this situation?
Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this
send to society and to my children?
Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound
me?
If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he
was stabbing me?
Should I call 9-1-1?
Why is this street so deserted?
We need to raise taxes, have a paint and weed day and make this a happier,
healthier street that would discourage such behavior.
This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for a few
days and try to come to a consensus.
