Politicians who you consider Giant Douche Bags

I do understand where you're coming from...in California, liberal insanity isn't just creating ridiculous new gun laws, it's hurting the armorers' businesses. But I do think you should keep in mind that being a liberal and being anti-gun are, contrary to popular belief, two different things.

Also, has anyone ever seen Democratic Underground? I'm not a member there (or a regular reader), but on another forum I visit, somebody pointed out that if you ever do read DU, you'll actually see quite a few members who talk about what guns they own. In fact, there have been some pretty vicious debates on that site between the gun-owning Democrats and the anti-gun Democrats.

Oh, I know the difference. But we are in the wonderful fairyland of CALIFORNIA! But I know a lot of armorers and their immediate reaction would be pretty negative, being that I have not run into one yet who was a liberal. It's a combination of anti gun and generally disagreeing with them on most other issues.

All I'm saying is, if there's a schism between anti-gun Democrats and those with no interest in gun control, it's in your interest to encourage it. It's always useful to recognize potential allies.

Isn't that something that comes with the territory in your line of work? I mean, let's face it...you're a conservative pro-gunner working in an industry that is pretty much dominated by anti-gunners, limousine liberals, and guilt-complex Greens (my least favorite type of liberal, BTW). Surely, you've built up some tolerance for their bullshit by now?

Man, I have to deal with those "soccer mom" types who think anything that can hurt their precious baby is Satanic. Every time my brother brings home a new friend, their mom will see the Winchester 88 hanging on my wall when they come to pick the kid up and start bitching at me

Yeah, I know those types. They think that just because they spouted out a kid, they have the right to determine what's right and wrong, what's moral and immoral, and what you should and shouldn't do. They call it "moral concession", which translates out to (at least in my view) "you should do what I say is right".

And then they talk about how they are environmentalists, all while driving gas guzzlers (rarely with anybody riding with them). I pity them because by sheltering their "precious baby" they ensure that they turn out to either be the kid who goes to prison by their early 20's or the kid that never moves out of his parent's basement

Think of the armorers as Jewish laborers in Auschwitz who are disciplined enough NOT to mouth off to the guards....... That's the tolerance you speak of It's a tolerance of necessity. That forced tolerance goes out the window when one's job is NOT on the line.

MoviePropMaster2008, you are an invaluable part of this site, but I found that incredibly offensive, my being the grandson of a holocaust survivor. The two do not even compare in the least.

That's what I was thinking too

MPM2008, I think you owe Alcatrazz an apology.
