I believe you are mistaken in your 90%.

By the way, there is a background check requirement whenever you purchase a gun from a licensed dealer.

Most folks do not have a problem with a background check, but that is very costly and does next to no good, other than to spotlight possible convicted felon purchasers. As far as a national gun registration, no way. No one is going to register their guns with the fear of the government possibly attempting to confiscate them whenever they please. Besides, most of your gun related crimes are perpetrated using unregistered, black market or stolen guns. You don't have to fear honest gun owners.....unless you are the bad guy.

I take that back, Bush and Cheney should not have been put in prison, they should have been hung by street lamps with piano wire and left to rot for the deaths of our finest in a made up war.

it was very close to 90 percent, maybe high 80s.

it seems to me that these latest mass killings were by mental retards who were able to buy a weapon legally.

Call it what you want, but if it even stops one idiot from getting a gun and shooting up a theatre then it is well worth it.

This whole crackpot theory of people worried that the government is coming to take your guns away was just a weapon industry tactic to get scared people to buy more guns while they still can.

Look at how much power and involvement our Federal government has in our everyday lives in recent years, so it is not to far fetched to believe that a Federal government gun grab is Very possible!

Absolutely correct!

There have been around 16 million babies born since President Obama took office. There have been more than 65 MILLION background checks for buying guns in that same time period!

YOu should go hide in a bunker somewhere. Somewhere safe. No matter what anyone tells you about gun statistics, you will always pull up some kind of lie somewhere and try to use it. You liberals are about as paranoid as can be. I am surprised you don't try to legislate a gov sponsored babysitting service that will protect you until you are old enough to become a conservative. Mass murderers are few and far between, so get over it. If the crazies don't have guns then they will just resort to bombs, or knives or axes or bats. A crazy is a crazy no matter what you take away from them. Doctors take more lives than guns, so maybe you want to outlaw doctors? Or maybe cars, since they also take more lives.

They are democratic in name only. Democracy to a liberal is just an oxymoron. Great example of the enlightened Democrat is the Nazis, National Socialist German Workers' Party, or the Democratic People's Republic (of North Korea), etc.

After reading these threads, this is the reason religion should be left out of all government discussions and decisions. First of all there are hundreds of religions that generate hundreds of opinions toward how to interpret the laws of our country, so leave it out of the equation. Nothing ****es me off more than someone starting off an opinion with a phase ending in a numeral reference to the bible. How can these people claim to be so religious and have absolutely no compassion for the less fortunate Americans in this country. They go to such extremes to see that no funding goes for anything that may benefit them. The Pope has pleaded with parishioners for empathy yet you see no evidence to show this is working! The right is so filled with hatred against the President and his programs that they are like mad dogs about everything working well in America under him. The world is changing and we have to change as well, sorry but this is a reality.

I do hope you are not confusing an opposing opinion or position for hatred!
All the way from the completion of his first year....because I said I would give him a year before I give an opinion.

After his first state of the union it the only conclusion I could come to is we have an incompetent executive in the WH. And for the next 5 years he confirmed my conclusion by time and time again making commitments with no resolve to see them through or implemented. Or to take action to correct the fact that implementaion was not going as promised. This person does none of that.

And over the past 6 years to witness time and time again his taking a black position on a black incident is not what a real president would do.
To give in to the enemy as many times as he has done is just not what the commander in chief of the most powerful nation on the planet does.
To refuse to label the enemy as Islamic Terrorists is totally and completely innexcuseable.

He does not represent the needs of we the people and the needs a strong and powerful and respected nation like the USA was before he emasculated it.

As I have said many times before, in corporate America he would have not made it to the first state of the union.

No for me it is not hate. It is earned disgust and disrespect!!!

There you go again with that always abused term "hatred." If we don't agree with you, you naturally assume that we hate you. It's either agree with you or nothing. Liberals feel that if they are non-believers than it should be banned from everyone. If the Republicans don't believe they just don't go to church, but respect others that do believe. If a Republican is gay, he lives a quiet life, whereas a liberal wants to make a law demanding respect. If a Republican doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants to ban them. I don't like Obama's ideology of socialism, and his policies. I don't know him well enough to hate him. I didn't like Carter's policies either, but I didn't and still don't hate him. Get over it. It's not healthy to think that everyone hates you.

Some few are just not capable of agreeing to disagreeing without counter attacking and name calling and labeling.

Does the majority still rule in America? You bet it does!

The Supreme Court majority decisions on ACA and same sex marriage were majority decisions.

The majority of Americans (51 percent) voted for Pres. Obama.

Looks as though the majority of America will vote for a Democratic President again in 2016.

As we socialist Progressives like to say.
