Thanks for that. Good to know New Hampshire has a pro-2nd amendment governor.
I don't know why the other thread got locked. But there are some people who complain to Dave because they hate any gun rights discussions. But they will never admit that they cry to Dave. I think it was interesting to see how King thinks it is devisive to wish to exclude certain people from the "Fraternity" of gun owners... just because they stab us in the back by supporting anti-gunners. I was hoping that King would explain the wisdom of embracing people who are screwing us by electing anti-gunners.
It was equally interesting to see nca225 advancing the silly idea that the NRA and gun owners should cede ground to the anti-gun Liberal Left Democrats who are never satisfied with the many laws we already have. But it does take some intelligence to learn from past errors, so nca225 will never learn.
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Under the circumstances, he acted reasonably with Democrats whom he would not cast as enemies. His state is tolerant and temperate, much like our Maritimes. Guns aren't the be-all of everything.

keith, from polls and popular vote, Americans don't see guns as an existential issue, the be-all and end-all of everything. Liberals and conservatives share the same values on many issues. Look it up.

....from polls and popular vote, Americans don't see guns as an existential issue, the be-all and end-all.... What popular vote King? Did you know that in the US, a popular vote can change the Constitution? Dont worry too much if not all folks are one issue voters, that doesnt diminish the importance of any one issue. Take for example ncas concern about changing the topic, theyre all important, which is why its a head scratcher when you say polar opposites have much in common. We should celebrate our differences, rather than settle for the lowest common denominator, eh?

Mr. Keith -
I believe it is too much to hope for that we have a serious discussion of the issue at hand - that being Red Flag Legislation and Gov. Sununus vetoing some ant-gun bills that came across his desk, without the endless hostilities you display on so many threads on this forum.
There is plenty of room here for serious discussion presented from every point of view. Bashing others doesnt accomplish anything on a public firearms forum other than to divide and conquer the good people who enjoy using their firearms in the legal manner that best suits them. Im not preaching diversity nor am I embracing those who would limit our gun rights more than they are now. What I am doing is saying is everyones opinion is valid in their own mind and nobody is better than his neighbor. Continuously bashing and trashing good people because their opinion differs from yours is wrong. Arguing points of opinion is a GOOD thing but the hostility you show toward others has no place in our society.
I didnt post this to draw your ire or your fire - do with it as you wish, but I sincerely hope you think it over and do the right thing. Try to be more tolerant and less hostile.
Thank you for your time. Dean

I don't cast all Democrats as enemies either King...
...just the Liberal Left Democrats wackos who support the anti-gun politicians who wish to take away the gun rights of law abiding citizens.
Guns aren't the be-all of everything. But guns are the reason those of us who aren't Socialist left wing anti-gun trolls frequent this forum. Most of us enjoy and cherish our freedoms, and don't wish to sell out to a philosophy of failure and a creed of envy.
Keep cool King. A couple hundred years ago, trying to subvert our our Constitution might have gotten you placed in a hang-mans noose. Nowadays, you merely earn your well deserved legacy as a troll who supports anti-gunners.

Mr. Dean,
In case you hadn't noticed, the discussion we were having was the usual crap where a small but vocal minority was advocating giving up certain guns and gun rights in the insane hope that anti-gun Liberal Left Democrats would back away from enacting Red Flag Laws.
Now I realize that some people place more emphasis on other things besides gun rights. Certainly, many feel that we must maintain the right to kill unborn babies up to and even after birth. And we can't forget about giving special rights to convicts, criminals, and illegal aliens. And my gosh, what right thinking person wouldn't wish to tax the hell out of workers and force Corporations to flee to countries with less taxation and regulations. Yeah,,, that's what we should be doing.
You go on embracing those who are stabbing us in the back. I'll keep calling it like it is.

Craig, can we assume that you know the mechanism by which the Constitution can be amended is a bit more complicated than "a popular vote"? It's not like the anti-gun people could put a measure to repeal the 2nd Amendment on the 2020 ballot, and if it were to pass by a majority, then 2A would be repealed.
