LBG…a question…re: your quote “I am having a hard time voting for McCain in this election.” So then, why vote for him? Honestly, I am still trying to figure out why he became the nominee? There was NO ONE that the Republicans put forward that you felt better about? Yes, I’m a Dem…but I truly am trying to understand the mindset that overwhelmingly made this man your nominee? Was the crowd of people trying to get the Republican nomination that weak? Honestly, I didn’t see much there, but as I said I’m a Dem…you probably don’t see much in our choices…so I’m asking to just get some knowledge, some thought on your part about it.
Also..re: gun “control”…do you favor registration of the arms that you get to bear, or not? and if you do, do you favor a waiting period for perhaps a background check? As in anything, from school bus drivers, to teachers, to day care workes, to nursing home employees, we see every day almost that background checks don’t always work, but..if there is gun registration are you for or agin the background checks?
and..what about automatic rifle/assault type weapons.. the ones that were basically made to kill, not to hunt, etc…we hear of collectors wanting heavy duty artillery, bazookas, that kind of thing…should they be available to everyone? do they meet your idea of “the right to bear arms” according to what the constitution says? or are they overkill? (ohh, bad pun – sorry)
Thanks in advance for your answers…
