[Nfbf-l] Stand your ground and s2188

Hi Kirk. The below email is not completely in response to your email.
But your suggestion in other words is, let Fox and its enlightened 
commentators come up with their interpretation of facts. With Rush Limbaugh 
in trouble calling a student a whore people are still trying to be cautious 
in their usual business of twisting the facts.
I am trying to keep this relevant to the blind, and this is my last email as 
we may be straying in to an off topic territory.
I would say this though. Some people would prefer their party affiliations 
more than the interest of the blind. Whatever the party says, it is right no 
matter if it means the repeal of ADA or any accessibility norms. They won't 
oppose anything they say. After all it is government's interference in the 
ugly business of business. Tea party's interest is more important than the 
interest of the blind. What Rush Limbaugh says is always signed by Jesus 
Christ, who taught us to use the guns when facing danger. We have a member 
in Orlando chapter who told me he would like to shoot thepeople in Congress. 
That was before this tea party congress. He believed there should be no 
government and no interference in business. When I said well, you asked a 
government agency for support, he was quite for a while and then said it was 
a different matter. Rationality and tea party go as much together, as guns 
and Jesus Christ goes.
So, what is important is what Rush Limbaugh says, not what is desirable for 
the bllind. I just wish they beat their drum for NRA and tea party off list. 
This is how it sounds:

dumb, dumb!
 dumb!
dumb, dumb,
dumb
!dumb, dumb,
dumb.
?dumb!
dumb, dumb
!dumb, dumb, dumb,
dumb, dumb, dumb
!dumb, dumb, dumb,
dumb, dumb, dumb
!dumb, dumb, dumb,
dumb, dumb, dumb!

>> Hi Tara,
>>
>> I strongly disagree with your stand on gun control.  I am a member of the
>> NRA and I believe in our Second Amendment rights for responsible gun
>> owners
>> to carry a gun.
>>
>> The tragedy of the teen shooting was horrible and the shooter should be
>> prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law but the fact he had a gun 
>> does
>> not make all gun owners evil.
>>
>> Should we revoke all drivers licenses because some drivers are wreckless
>> or
>> some drivers drive while drunk?  NO!
>>
>> The simple fact is that MOST gun owners are responsible and realize the
>> seriousness of their actions.
>>
>> When I was a kid all boys and most girls carried a pocket knife to school
>> but now that would be considered a major offense.
>>
>> It is not the gun or the knife or the car that is the problem it is the
>> rare
>> but tragic actions of an irresponsible person that is the problem.
>>
>> If our society succeeded in banning all guns, knives and other dangerous
>> weapons then irrational crazy people would use a stick, a rock or their
>> bare
>> hands to hurt other people.
>>
>> As for your cane incident, many years ago  there was a guy with a folded
>> cane in his back pucker who was stopped by a police officer for carry a
>> weapon and when the cop asked the guy what he had in his pocket the guy
>> thought he was being mugged.  He stood to defend himself and the cop beat
>> him up.  the cop's defense was the guy should have seen he was wearing a
>> uniform.  So are you going to ban cops too?
>>
>> So think twice before your misinformation guides you in restricting my 
>> gun
>> ownership rights, they are one of the few things left in the Constitution
>> that hasn't been trashed.
