Senate fails the country again.

oh my excuse, trust me I have done farther math than you will ever. I can take the 3rd integral of a non-square linear dependent matrix and tell you the basis from the null space of eigenvectors corresponding to the eigenvalues even though the determinant is not 0. I can also show you the differential for circular area is rdϕdr, which by taking the double integral of 0 to R and 0 to 2π (radian rotation) is πr^2 which you learned in middle school but didn't know where it came from

The point is its still less than 1%. I'm sure the violent crime rate is that low in this country or any other.

So, first you deny 90% of Americans support background checks.

Then when presented with irrefutable proof that they do, you change your opinion to "Clearly, these 90% of people are misinformed."

You heard it here, folks.

These aren't even scientific polls. I'm willing to deny it.

If I make a poll on my P99 website asking how many people like video games, then I'm sure it would be over 90%.

they probably asked anti-american garbage leaving an obama rally

[Barkingturtle]

The majority of Americans are anti-American.

Willful ignorance can involve outright refusal to read, hear or study, in any way, anything that does not conform to the person’s worldview. With regard to oneself, this can even extend to fake locked-in syndrome with complete unresponsiveness.

This message is hidden because Black Jesus is on your ignore list.

Why did it take me that long? Not worth arguing with brainwashed sheep who ignore what is presented right before them.

I am starting think that its more about an incremental approach where we focus on an overt confiscation gun grab while the groundwork is being laid to where they will license and permit gun ownership out of existence. Make ammo scarce and raise the price on everything. Tack on some fees and taxes for background checks, licenses etc. and eventually owning a gun becomes a bureaucratic nightmare. At the same time the 2nd amendment is preserved even if its made impotent. This seems more realistic to me than any kind of confrontation people might imagine. Just some thoughts I had on the issue today.

^ yup. you give an inch, they'll take a mile

Well it just makes sense because you already have half the country doing the work for you and you avoid open hostilities. Meanwhile we run around gawking at the circus created in a perpetual state of anxiety and division. Reminds me of Alvin Tofflers book Future Shock where as technology creates more information people become inundated and are unable to make a decision due to a sort of information overload. I mean this week its terrorist, last week it was North Korea, next week it will be something else all while the noose is tightening.
