Oh and, congrats I guess on subsidizing Wayne Lapierre’s most recent plastic surgery and his mansion. Way to go.

You might be surprised to learn that he NRA has had minimal involvement. It's actually local grassroots gun rigts groups and the internet who have been coordinating.

I expected more in the NRAs home state.

Why is it so important to you to own the weapon that has been used to create so much carnage and murder schoolchildren?

20 1st graders were blown apart in their classrooms with one of these weapons - The fact that you write that off is disgusting to me

This. Remember a few years ago when the reports estimated thousands pro confederate monuments and flagged would show to support keeping the monuments in Monument Avenue and about 10 showed up but 1,000 counter protestors showed up. The 10 protestors then ran away but their car wouldn’t start (because they could all fit in one car). So much negative press against RVA when in fact those 10 protestors were all from out of state while the counter protestors were locals. No Antifa.

No way will there be 75,000 pro gun protestors, or 7,500 or even 750. My money says under 20.

Surely you jest. You think that there will be "under 20" people at the January 20 rally? You are out of your mind. There are busloads of pro-gun protestors coming from all over Virginia. 2 buses from Fairfax. 1 bus from Leesburg. 1 from Manassas. 1 from Winchester. There are buses from Norfolk, Hampton, Newport News and Suffolk, and buses from Roanoke and other points in SW Virginia. And this doesn't figure in the hundreds of guys that are driving and car-pooling.
I really have no idea how many people will be there, but if the total number of protestors that show up is less than 20,000 I'll donate $100 to the gun-control charity of your choice.

LOL, not a chance they’ll have 20,000 pro-gun protestors there.

Freedom isn't free.

Bad stuff can happen when people are free to make choices.

So those 20 slaughtered children were worth it to you for your “freedom”?

How many would be too many for you personally? Is there a limit? 100? 1000? 1000000? No limit?

If you want my complete and utter honesty? No limit because I personally value maximum freedom, which means people are allowed to make stupid choices.

It's not because I'm heartless. We allow for 10s of thousands to die each year for car accidents yet we don't outlaw driving. If you think I'm a bad person, I'm ok with that.

Of course, I think you are a horrible person. Who wouldn’t?

Enjoy your “maximum freedom”.

I'm fine with not imposing my morality upon you, that's where we differ.

I do enjoy my freedoms, and I appreciate your thoughtful discourse.

Too bad it wasn’t your kid who was killed instead of the child of someone not willing to make that trade. You know, price of freedom and all.

I would be ok with that. Others might not be.

I think people should be able to make bad and "wrong" decisions. Freedom means not being protected from bad choices even if they are preventable. Not everyone wants or can handle freedom. That is self evident from the discussion here. Like I said, if that makes me a bad person I fully take responsibility for that.

Does it ever concern you that your norms are so very different than most other people? You’d let your own child die if that meant you could keep your guns. Not many people would say that. Do you feel disconnected from typical emotions?

And would you let your child die to block universal background checks? Or restrictions on magazine capacity?

Or is “maximum freedom” the only important thing to you? Do you actually have children?
