    It's pretty concerning that there are those among "us" that don't understand the difference between voting for dems or republicans regarding the Second Amendment.

    There are certainly republicans that could be better on 2A, including the president. Let's not confuse could be better with wanting the 2A removed, as is the platform of the dems.

    The Second Amendment is paramount to the the whole constitution. Nothing else matters without the Second Amendment. Without the 2A, tyrants can and will change or remove the constitution as they choose.

    It's entirely your right to vote based on a single issue.
    It's entirely mine to assess each candidate in each race and weigh in my mind what I believe best for the township, county, city, state and country.
    If you are greatly concerned about Dems being "among 'us'," I'd suggest you get hold of the admin. Perhaps you can the undesirables removed.

    Since you are obviously fine with the stated goal of the standard bearers of the Democrat party to engage in wholesale confiscation of modern rifles from law-abiding citizens, I can't imagine what else you think is good for your township, county, city, state and country.

    Please enlighten us.

    Yes to this and it's sad to think that there are those that chisel away each day at it and it goes unnoticed by many. However, many of one issue voters are being replaced by a "what about me" newer public. For instance, take a person that has voted for Trump and may do so again. this fall. His President has been on TV everyday asking peeps to stay home and stop the spread. Many are doing that but some are not. Being good or bad is not the point but isn't it hypocritical of the voter to not support the person he voted for? In aware of this, it would seem like this fickle individual will vote for whatever one issue he decides is important to him. I think that is why B. Sanders got so much support for socialism. The WAM crowd may not have any interest in guns but hoard toilet paper and video games in the future. It is so important we keep up the fight for our 2A rights.

    You have absolutely no idea what I'm fine with or not fine with.
    I count myself a D, but I've voted for Rs in the past and may or may not again. I also do not count independent or libertarian options as outside the realm of consideration.
    I refuse to do anything in lockstep. I don't give my free will or freedom to choose over to any candidate, cause, group, religion or web crowd. I prefer not to run in herds.
    If the mouse says I gotta go, I go. Otherwise, I'm here. That's just the nature of the place.
    Shrug.

    If you identify as a Democrat, I damn sure do have a good idea of what you stand for. Because the party has a platform and an agenda for all to see. Just like any political party. Otherwise, what's the use of "identifying as a D?"

    Nobody is asking you to go anywhere. If you've voted for both parties in the past, maybe you need to reevaluate your beliefs. You might find out that you are actually an independent. Nothing wrong with thinking for yourself. Identifying with one political party is the very definition of running in a herd.

    I don't know. Maybe you just want an abortion. :):

    I don’t own any modern rifles, so I don’t care if they take yours.

    Purple heavily implied.

    Last two states I've lived in, one had to ask for a given ballot or declare party at the primary polling place.
    I don't like that, nor agree with it and in fact think its nothing more than hegemony by the two major parties, the establishment making sure things don't get out of grasp. But, again, it is the system we vote within.
    I have no womb, so no, no one's really discussing abortion here, but if memes or the suggestion that I'm a woman are what you've got ... shrug.
    As to "go anywhere," I wanted to give the poster with the concerns some salve, or at least remind him of his options.
    There's actually more to "Don't tread on me" than firearms in general or MSRs in particular.
    Don't get (conservatively) triggered over it.

    I'm not overly conservative. But if you think that a person who would confiscate your arms and negate your right to defend yourself and your family would otherwise not "tread" on you, then I've got a bottle of Coronavirus vaccine that I'll sell ya.

    So I guess what I’m curious about is, what issues do you lean towards voting democrat instead of republican over? There are maybe a couple things i agree with democrats on, like gay marriage for example. But I would never consider voting for a party that’s spent 4 years running impeachment witch hunts, Russia investigations, kavanaugh investigation, and during a pandemic trying to start another impeachment sham.

    Just curious what it is that appeals to you?

    Republicans, Democrats, and even libertarians are in a private party. You have no right voting in their primary to select their candidates for general election. If you truly believe in voting for the man, then your opportunity to make your voice heard is in the general election, choosing between the candidates selected by the members of any parties and independent candidates that may run. Only do what they please liberals really believe they should have a voice in the parties selection of the candidates to present their values and vision.

    Ran into that with a guy at work who bought an AR-15. He comes to work the next day telling me how it took a while to figure out how to release the mag, release the bolt, and wondering what that little flip up thingy where the bullets come out was for. Then he asks if I have some shells that he could buy. I told him I'd only sell to him if he would allow me to give him a crash course. He informed me that he was 54 years old and he could figure it out by himself. I told him to figure out where to get ammo.


    If he asked to buy "shells" I would have agreed to sell him some, and after I received payment, I would give him a bag of empty brass cases.

    Mark, I don't think any one wants you to go any where.

    You have been asked what issues are important to you and you seem to think that is a personal attack.

    We will laugh at or applaud your positions. You can take it you're a man.

    So far all you have said is you have your own opinions. We cannot discuss what we do not know .

    The Mouse will not send you packing unless you break the rules and have a meltdown.
