Uhh... we can buy guns you realize? Screw the pitchforks and torches, I have a hunting rifle and a good amount of ammunition

We're planning to get Gun Control to L+ within 2 years, though, so you'd probably just be wasting our money.

Someone remind me why strict gun control is considered a liberal ideal? Seems pretty anti liberal to me.

[Leafsnail]

Because liberals tend to advocate it?

[warhammer651]

Can we be liberals who allow it? could give us a good amount of support in the Boonies and in the south

[Leafsnail]

No.  You cannot compromise the ideals of Liberalism.  If you concede on any issue then you've clearly been corrupted.

[warhammer651]

Then you know what? screw the republicans and democrats, I'm forming th "Get shit done" party.

[Nadaka]

I don't have a problem with people owning or using handguns, rifles, automatics, anti-vehicular weapons or even crossbows and dull rocks as long as they do so responsibly.

That is what I see as a liberal (probably excessively liberal) point of view on the second amendment.

The conservative point of view would be to restrict ownership and use through FUD, regulation or outright banning.

I realize that is almost exactly the opposite of the official point of view, but it makes more sense to me.

I mostly agree with the rest of the liberal POV on other topics to some extent or another.

[GlyphGryph]

Yeah, I'm okay with not going for L+ in regards to gun laws and nuclear power.

Everything else, though...

Hehehe... there's a word for peope like us, who's views differ from the idealogue lines!

MCS! and ICS! arise!

[Nadaka]

Is it possible to be a radical moderate?

[GlyphGryph]

It's possible to be a radical anything. As long as you do it to the extreme!

[Solifuge]

It's possible to be a radical anything. As long as you do it to the extreme!

This means skateboards and wicked stunts during press announcements.

[Zrk2]

I think I have what you guys are looking for: Libertarianism.

This comment is like a cool oasis in a desert to me.

I also don't have any problems with people using plutonium pellets responsibly (they're very useful as heating elements), just so you know.
