In reply to the discussion: Bloomberg Spends $764,232.35 Buying Oregon Background Check Bill [View all]beevul
(12,194 posts)15. Thats nice, I ignore irrelevent lines of argument too, like yours.
The NRA warned that Obama had a ten point secret plan to take away grandpa's shotgun. Again I ignored it when they doubled down on the second time he got elected. I tried to make bets with a few folks at the range that bought into it. A thousand dollars if the government tries to take away any gun you own legally while Obama is president. Funny, no one would take that bet.
Whatever you think that means, it has nothing to do with what I'm referring to.
I guess we should just ignore bloombergs groups spokeswoman right?
If you believe Shannon watts is telling a lie about the intentions of Bloomberg and the demanding moms, state it loud and clear, right here. Tell us all how its just a lie, and we shouldn't pay any attention. Show us, how in spite of their own words, they're working hard to protect the rights of individuals to own firearms.
I'll wait right here.
On the other hand, if you can't, or decide not to reply, I'll take that as a concession that I am 100 percent correct.
I get it, its inconvenient for you that we know the intentions of your gun grabbing buddies, and even more inconvenient when they open their fat traps and confirm it. But you really don't have any room to be making bets, when we discuss the stated intentions of your gun grabbing buddies, with an eye toward acting to make sure that their stated intentions of do not come to fruition.
Of course theres the hypocrisy issue as well:
"Banning guns addresses a fundamental right of all Americans to feel safe."

You think DiFi has 'evolved' on the issue? Well, do you?
Its nice of you to come here, and talk about what hasn't happened, but expecting anyone to ignore the intentions of the majority of the anti-gun camp, is expecting too much.
