Hi there, the names Jeff.
Good to meet you.
Likewise, Jeff. I'm Bill.
If you do not support socialized medicine, do not think government should do the cradle to grave thing, and don't want change for the sake of change, by what definition do you call yourself a liberal? I'm not challenging you, I'm trying to understand what your definition of the term is.
On the subject of the 2A, likewise: To me, the uninfringed RKBA means that there is no prohibition on arms of any type for free men, there are no places where arms are disallowed, and no laws requiring any jumping-through of hoops to exercise a God-given right. Along with that right goes the duty to act in a lawful manner-that is, if I commit a crime whether with my firearm or without it. I run the risk of being killed in the process.
That's it. No "reasonable regulations", no "gun free zones", no anything but simple, straight-up responsibility. Agree? Disagree? No judging, just education. Teach me what liberal means to you, please.
Mods: I realize that this departs from the subject of Palin's speechwriter being vegan. If the thread needs split for that reason, please consider this my request for that to happen and also my apology for the to the OP.
Blessings,
B
