I have just been noticing that whenever someone has a different view they are "sheeple" or "politically...

Oh man I am a gun ignoramus.
As a tax accountant, to me an M-1 is a book-tax difference.
That can't possibly be what he wants, could it?
I don't know what you just said, but I'm thinking the answer is no.
He wants an M-1 Abrams Tank.
No, he won't be able to get one.

Yes. I do know what she meant. That was why I posted what I did. I can't let things like that just slide because then people think it's acceptable. It's not. Sorry if that upsets everyone so much.

Power to the People.
Believe it or not, I panicked and ran.
I am lucky I did not get shot.

I was robbed at gunpoint years ago and it didn't change my stand on gun control (I was in favor)
I have since changed my mind!! Don't shoot!!
Moving to the country made me realize how decent folks rely on their guns; this thread taught me the deeper ramifications.
