    Let's talk about this for a minute.. I KNOW you THINK your guns are going to PROTECT you from a tyrannical government. But have you THOUGHT about WHO you'll actually be firing on?? Will it be your local cops? Will it be the National Guard? Will it be the US Navy Seals? What's patriotic about shooting them?

    Or, do you think it's going to be Obama's soldiers? How you going to tell the difference??

    Let's put this to bed. If you take up arms against the United States of America, you're a domestic terrorist. That's just so. Oh, I know, you THINK you're a patriot.. Tim McVey thought he was a patriot. But, he was a scum bag terrorist.

    No tal ;it's you and your side who try to link us to extremism. Like I said ;it wasn't me who wrote the DHS report on domestic terrorist threats.

    AGAIN... Whats the difference? I don't want to call you loony if you aren't!

    I honestly can't tell!!

    What's looney about TP ? That they occasionally dress in tri cornered hats ? Nahh You think it's loony to want to control government spending and to make sure that the government governs within the constraints of the constitution.

    NoI don't, I think its loony to make poor people and women and children take less and give it to rich guys who lie, and call themselves job creators. I think its loony to call 47% of the population who are poor or damned close to it lazy, unwashed cheap skates who feel entitled to free stuff you capitalists have extracted by tricks and traps and put your name on, and swear you earned it, and are entitled to it.

    Loony is thinking you can talk crap about everybody else, and think they will agree and follow you to LALA land. Its not how you dress, not my style, but how you talk, so for the last time, what's the difference between right wing extremist, and the TParty?

    If you don't know just say so, that's honest at least, and I will endeavor to enlighten you, hopeless as that may be. Oh wait I didn't answer your question "What loony about the TP??".

    YES I DID!

    You are a 1 trick pony. The sum of all your argument is capitalism ----evil .

    Unregulated it can easily veer into the evil category. When wealth accumulation is the driving force behind every decision then all else falls by the wayside.

    And the straw men keep coming .

    What straw man? You brought up capitalism, the thread includes discussions on regulation. Why are you so intent on dismissing the discussion? It's not going your way?

    I accept the idea that one mans opinion is another mans straw argument.

    But extracting all the money because you can, from the economy and making the government unable to address the poverty that's created by that extractionism is not the answer.

    Okay I will acknowledge the war on republicans and their tyranny and subjugation. I just don't need a gun to do it. But I did vote against it as most of us did. We exercised our rights and the Romney/right wing dreams of corporate governess got put down. Don''t expect it to stop there though, because its only the beginning.

    That's reality and not a straw argument.

    PS- Not that I expect you guys to just give up though. I ain't crazy!
