Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: which is the deadliest round? [View all]"That's *precisely* what I'm advocating---the right to disagree with you, and live peaceably and responsibly by my own choices"
exactly! thats what we all want, to be left alone and live in peace. how each of us chooses to live our lives is nobody business. pro-gun or anti-gun, black or white, gay or straight. religious or atheist. pro pot or anti pot. republican or democrat. regardless of your beliefs and life choices, as long as you aren't causing harm to others than you should have the right to do it. isn't that the liberal ideology?

        Yep.  Just like slavery and the way we have treated (and still do) Native Americans.
