amazing how many so called "Americans" scream to give up their freedoms.
Yup, I’m willing to give up my rights to large capacity magazines and other military-style weaponry that you guys seem to get a hard-on over. (BTW, are they critical in “home defense”? Why? Can’t you guys hit a target with all your practice?)

:S
No idea what you’re trying to say here, but the law has long recognized there are reasonable limits on freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press, and so on. Only gunners (and the nonsensical precedence-free decrees of Thomas et al) insist the 2nd amendment cannot be subject to similar reasonable limits (…except when they so decree- like no guns in Supreme Court chambers.)

False (and data-free).
