[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3401800, member: 24302"] Obama before being elected in 2008 was caught on tape in a private meeting talking about how rural white voters "cling to their guns and their religion." That plus his strong backing of the far Left, who are anti private ownership, told us all we needed to know. You're locked into this idea that Republicans are monolithic, that there's no diversity of ideas. I for one am pro 2nd Amendment but don't believe it's a good idea for semiautomatic weapons to be in the general population. If they had been kept out to begin with we wouldn't be seeing the carnage that's happening. It's hard for me to see Republicans as family values types when little kids are getting slaughtered. But the genie is out of the bottle. If the Left is saying you can't go round up and deport eleven million illegal aliens then tell me how do you round up 18 million or so AR-15's and untold millions more semiautomatic weapons? The fact is that many, if not most, will refuse to give them up. The criminal element certainly won't. You say we don't care about the issues. We say you haven't put enough thought into the issues.
