Wow I dont know if any of you have read the article and watched the video but its normal anti gun bashing as issued from the BBC uhh I mean ABC! Well I dont know if anyone caught this but go the the comments section of the page and the first 15 of the 181 comments are all Pro-Firearm!

I was actually trying to find the anti comments so I could respond in turn but was shocked and found out that we are the overwelming majority over their! Yay!!

Sort of driveby, just wanted to inform the board we might be swaying people and not noticing.

Your argument doesn't follow from your premise. This is the sort of thing that pisses off gunnies, who post it on the boards, which brings a ton of us out to make comments. Self-selecting pools don't prove anything.

No, they do prove something. They prove who has stronger preferences.

They do not gauge "what percentage of the country cares about X".

But they do gauge who cares about this enough to find the poll.

Such things reveal strong and weak preferences.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought
