Why Not Compromise?

Why Not Compromise?



I'll compromise with the gun haters. If they will promise to leave me alone, I promise not to shoot them in the face. That's all they are going to get from me. A gun hater told me once that the government will come and get my guns whenever they are ready. I responded that I would much rather die in the street, shot by a government thug, than to stand next to a pit and be shot by a government thug. 



There has never been any "real" compromise in the gun debate. What have the gun haters given up? Gun owners are saddled with the Brady bill that says that every gun sold through a dealer must go through a background check. When that law was passed, just what did the gun haters give up? Nothing. They got their background checks and we didn't get anything but more loss of our rights. I get so tired of hearing the gun haters talk about "common sense" gun laws and compromise. Here's a good compromise for them. They got background checks, we should get suppressors off of the NFA restrictions and every gun owner that wants one should be able to go to the local gun emporium and buy all of them he wants. No forms, no special tax stamp, period.
