16. You keep claiming we're uninterested in debate but you're the one who states

you have no intention engaging with us.

We're quite happy to debate. One of the things that have endeared me to the RKBA advocates is their ready willingness to discuss studies, case law and other points of fact.

You, low post count and all, seem to think you're the first to ever come here, challenge us and then -- grow so frustrated with us not accepting your first words -- retreat to insults. You're not bringing anything new. In fact, it is the exact same banal routine that attends pretty much every Controller who ventures in here.

You can make as many pronouncements as you like about being in the majority but your side has achieved an "assault weapon" registration law that is largely ignored, the NY SAFE Act passed in the dead of night without debate (speaking of the cultist epithet) that is also primarily ignored, a magazine capacity limit in Colorado that lost the state legislature to the GOP, an executive action to cancel reciprocity that resulted in a retreat less the legislature pass by veto-proof margins Constitutional-carry laws and an AWB that the 4th Circuit said is subject to strict scrutiny.

By the way, the NRA isn't the only RKBA organization. Is it just the NRA you have a problem with or is it also the 1A that you find so nettlesome?
