Here's an actual lawyer explaining why the situation with Scalia and Obama's appointee is not the same as the current situation with RGB and Trump's appointee.

Clip starting point is at 21:56 of an almost 3-hour show. Nick Rekieta is fun to listen to.

Can't seem to get the video player up this time around, so this link starts you at about the right place.

Our "link thingy" (Super technical term, for you nerds.), only works with the basic link. You can't add the extraneous things like a start time, or "feature", etc.

"I'm not a one issue voter" is a phrase I've heard or read countless times in recent years. This is the problem I have with that mentality, it fails to understand, it fails to grasp that this one issue of gun ownership is THE most important issue upon which ALL other issues depend.

Lose on this one issue? And we're fucked on all other issues. As a brown skinned Native American JEW who is also Russian, I understand this implicitly. This single issue is too important to kid yourself with the "I'm not a one issue voter" crap.

ALL THE OTHER ISSUES DEPEND ON THIS "ONE ISSUE" OF A POPULATION HAVING THE MEANS, THE TOOLS TO BE ABLE TO DEFEND ALL THOSE ISSUES WHEN PUSH COMES TO SHOVE.

It really is that simple.

You have been listening to the words that Biden, his running mate and his "Gun Czar" have been saying (repeatedly)? Haven't you?

You've have been keeping tabs on the legislation that has poured forth from Olympia, HAVEN'T you?

You do know what's happened to gun ownership (i.e. mandatory surrender) in many New England states and CA etc., don't you?

Is your head buried in the sand or are you being disingenuous?

I wouldn't spend a whole lot more time thinking out responses to him. Took a quick glance at his other recent posts, and they don't give me confidence that the intention is discourse. Not sure if he's trolling, but he's certainly not trying to make nice.

I will, however, maintain my previous sentiment, in that I hope I am proven wrong. He's a real person behind a real keyboard, ostensibly with a real, somewhat thought out opinion on the matter. Don't know if he'll have any credibility left by the time he gets it out, if he gets it out, but it is what it is. Or maybe it's not. I don't know.

His post from July should tell you all you need to know about his intent. He’s not here to ‘discuss’ anything:

when i want a good laugh at disconnected yahoos that believe that kind of crap, the comments threads on waguns never fail to disappoint. thanks for being cranky ole yocals that believe everything that weird right wing conspiracy theory websites get off on feeding you.

This is me hitting the like button for Tods post.

Had more to do with not being able to agree on which sect of Christianity to follow. Funny thing is nearly every state had an established favorite denomination which they supported some by collecting taxes to support them.

armed man is a lion. unarmed man is a chihuahua

Jukk, that derriwhatever guy is barred from entering Jukk0u-Land. Okay? "Room for compromise". Yeah, right. They've taken taken taken our rights away and added thousands of gun laws, so in a compromise, something is given. Derriwhatever, WHAT have they given? ZERO? ZILCH? NADA? NIX? DING DING DING YOU ARE A WINNER IF YOU SAID ZERO!! They have given NOTHING so "they" have NEVER compromised and we have done NOTHING BUT compromise.

Are you high? Drunk? What? What kind of crazy are you selling here? Because we ain't buyin'. And NO you cannot enter Jukk0u-Land no no never. No spinners, no buxom, no chubbs for you..

With crazy talk like yours saying we need to compromise, when that's all we've done for decades, while the left has given NOTHING, with crazy talk like that your credibility is fast approaching zero, if it isn't already there.

You guys would be ahead to just put assholes on ignore. If nobody responds to their shit, they will go away. Which is what we really want.

We ignore them. They ignore us. The gap widens.

Yeah, that sounds like a great solution.

When somebody pops up just to troll, has no intention to discuss matters rationally, and repeatedly mocks and insults, I will ignore them

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has announced his intention to erect a statue in Brooklyn in honor of the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This is rich, considering that just a few months ago he was all in favor of tearing statues down.
