Got fired? GOOD! If you cannot keep confidentiality you cannot have a job like that.

"President Trump on Sunday claimed that background checks wouldn't have stopped any of America's mass shootings over the past half-dozen years - attributing the phenomenon to mental illness. "

We know he is right re guns in this matter. Love him or hate him, give credit where do.

Robert Francis O’Rourke announces that if he's elected he is going to confiscate your guns:

Reporter: How do you address fears that the government is going to confiscate people's semi-auto firearms?

O’Rourke: “I want to be really clear, that’s exactly what we are going to do”

You are a reasonable guy. Please tell me specifically what in a background check would make it illegal to own a firearm? I've asked this before?

Marijuana conviction?
DUI conviction?
Medical diagnosis of depression?
KKK membership?
History of suicide attempt 20 years ago?
Domestic assault charge pending?

Until it is crystal clear what the disqualifiers are I am against background checks. Tell me specifically and I will likely be for them.

Interesting point. You do not hear the gun grabbers say what would be a DQ. I do fear that they are trying to diagnose people, especially at a young age, as having a "mental issue" say in high school and that becomes a DQ issue. It is not some "grand plan" but neither is it "just happening."

If you can remember where you asked about it before, you'll find I already answered it. I did some preliminary searching, but didn't see it, or know if it was here or on the other board.

I was being lazy.... but also seeing if anyone else wanted to chime in.

It is a similar question I ask whenever someone says "we need to spend more money on ......" I always ask, what do you want to spend less money on then? Or do you want to have taxes go up?

John Bolton fired by Trump. He's gonna have to hire Hillary at the rate he's going. No one left hanging around.

There is a ton we can spend less money on

There is this great site called google. It prevents rants that make little sense.

Last battleship built--1944
Last battleship in service--1992
