Autumn with a reasonable POV.

Don’t cha agree, Enco?

Encospeak: And taking all the guns away would leave every Citizen at the mercy of such “tgnominious failures!”

Didn’t do the Texans any good carrying guns. Ya see if you had just been consistent in your libertarian fairy tale and every citizen were responsible for their own safety then the parents could have used their guns to take out the bad…[Read more]

Ok Enco, this will be a hasty response as i only found one play at Belterra and am on to Thistledowns.

As to the cops at that scene, what an ignominious failure. On the other hand that is not to condemn all cops. I would look at a whole host of evidence and weed out tendentious data gatherers if possible. But my gut is there ought to be a right…[Read more]

Oh, hey Enco.

I am Jake, friend of the lady of the lake. Also enemy of the talking snake.

No special needs here. I aced the bar and was hoping to have enough time to make the races during lunch hour but that part went the way of the best laid plans.

Unlike you i am not an ideologue so you can’t rightly classify me as purely anything other…[Read more]

God and guns made America great. God lovers are gun lovers and gun lovers are god lovers. God lovers love absolutes. The absolutist’s hermeneutics of the bible and the constitution demand that we know what was intended by the framers. Never mind that modern conditions were never contemplated and the language, necessary for a well regulated…[Read more]

How dare you Northern folks in DC try to tell us what we can or cannot do with our “property”. That was basically the rant of ass hats like JC Calhoun a decade before the war…[Read more]

Hi Enco. How is dreamland? The libertarian fantasy land makes no evidentiary demand-not for Enco who is deep in dreamland.

Says you mistah: Free-Mqrket Capitalists don’t kidnap or conscript their labor; they recruit and hire, and unlike Attorneys with too many of their interns, Free-Market Capitalists pay dearly depending on the demand and s…[Read more]

Enco, you must be aghast at emancipation in that it is a restraint on trade and unbridled capitalism. Trick laws to ameliorate the oppression of Blacks is a nightmare caused by liberals. Similarly every citizen should have guns, big guns, extra lethal muthas…

Yes, Reg, the link is working.

The 2nd amendment is probably misunderstood. If the drafters wanted an absolute right there would not be any “being necessary for a well regulated militia.” I think there was fear of the federal government and militias were seen as a counterbalance to central authority. In general the notion that the bill of rights…[Read more]
