A reasonable compromise?

[Zundfolge]

How about this for a compromise?

You (liberals, not the OP) stop trying to restrict my constitutional rights (ALL OF THEM) and stop trying to destroy free market capitalism and we don't have to go to war.

Because that's where its going to end up eventually.



EVERY "reasonable compromise" with the left has been used to incrementally push us into their totalitarian vision for America. We compromise, they don't.

The only "reasonable compromise" that has EVER worked in our favor was the sunset provision in the '94 ban. And a lot of good that's doing us now, we're right back where we were in '93-'94 arguing for the same rights, preparing to offer up EVEN MORE compromises.

how would you feel about a buyers card like nebraska . basically you fill out the 4473 once with the sheriff and they mail a card . once you have a card you present it to anyone who wishes to sell a firearm to insure that the seller is covered . granted this system does not stop criminals from breaking the law but it does eliminate the need to run a 4473 every time you want to purchase at a store.

Seems like the people on this forum would rather lose everything than submit to a minor inconvenience.

I'm not going to lose shit.... and I'm not going to submit to anything.

Think about that.

You'll have plenty of time to think about it yourself in jail. Unless you're dead.

I'm already subjected to many minor inconveniences:

• Fill out a federal form to buy a gun
• Submit to a background check
• Wait, possibly several days, for the "InstaCheck" to be completed
• Which might entail an additional trip to the gun store
• I'm told by the government where I can take my gun
• I'm restricted by the government as to how I can carry my gun
• I'm charged a fee by the government if I want to carry my gun in a certain way
• I can't have certain guns because the government doesn't trust me
• I have to pay an astronomically, artificially inflated price to own certain guns or accessories
• I have to pay taxes non gun owners don't have to pay
• I'm vilified by the media because I like guns
• etc, etc, etc...

So you can take your additional "minor inconveniences"...somewhere else.

Besides...it's not like we're going to have any say on whether or not any particular anti-gun law is passed. Well, I guess we'll have a say...it's just nobody's listening or cares.

Good point. Yea, we all know about making flat statements. They sometimes leave us few options with none of them being very pleasant.

You hit the nail on the head. We may all have some tough decisions coming up. We'll all individually just have to consider ALL consequences before deciding.

All of this talk about compromise reminds me of Winston Churchill:

"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last."

I would be perfectly happy to compromise to a couple minor inconveniences if I knew it would stop there, but it doesn't.

Liberal's "allow" us to compromise so that they can come back a year later and ask for ANOTHER compromise and then ANOTHER and then ANOTHER until they eventually get us to compromise everything away piecemeal and they get the extreme situation they wanted in the first place.

EVENTUALLY all these compromises will end up with us losing everything.

So again, screw compromise, screw the Democrats and their media, screw all of it. I'd rather be dead than give another fucking inch.
