re: #328 NJDhockeyfan

Everyone has their reasons to support various candidates. Some issues are much more important than others. There is no such thing as a perfect politician.

That has nothing to do with what I said, though.

I’m saying that voting on the right to bear arms when there are such gigantic threats to our society and way of life that voting based on minute shades of difference between the GOP and the Democrats on the 2nd amendment is rather ludicrous to me.

The ATF wants to control the gun trade a little more, and that led the ATF to run a program that was probably ill-advised. What actually happened, of course, was the unrestricted flow of guns— so in a weird way, what the 2nd amendment people are claiming to be mad about is regulation not being enforced.

So they’re going to vote against Obama because the ATF intentionally didn’t interdict weapons so they could build a bigger case to interdict more weapons. Huh?
