I've got a compromise for Ms. Speaker. How's this:

Instead of completely abolishing all firearms laws, we keep the instant check system, we can keep the registration and tax on NFA items, however, we lower the tax from 200 to 100, we have 50 state reciprocity on concealed carry permits (like drivers licenses), and we make machine guns after 1986 transferable with a $100 stamp just like suppressors and short barrel rifles.

You see, we compromise.

I'm willing to give and take a little.

Yeah, it's funny that their definition of compromise always involves only taking rights away, and not giving any back.

[DeltaEchoVictor]

I don't compromise where my f'ing rights are concerned.

"We have to find some level of compromise," Pelosi said, citing 53 victims of gun violence nationwide in less than a month. "And we have to rid the debate of the misconceptions people have about what gun safety means."

The only misconception that she & her ilk are under is that people are safer when unarmed. 

<rant on> Just once I'd like to see some self-destructive douche bag go on a rampage with a bag of spaghetti noodles & a bull frog, we'd see how strong their resolve to keep people safe would be then. <rant off>

Shit, Jack! Only thing worse than a politician is a child molester.... Sheriff Hank Pearson in Extreme Prejudice.

Too F'ing right! No compromise, EVER!

[Patriot:Ex Machina]

Yep. Draw a line in the sand, and say "No further...not this time."

The Hegelian Dialectic is alive and well; do not compromise, their premise is false, so any synthetic "solution" is an incremental victory.

Dignifying their position with debate is lending it legitimacy!

This is a total thread-jack....who made that sweet ass, killer ant banner?? Awesome. Just awesome.

OK, so as not to create a total jack.. what will 'we' do if they try another AWB? will 'we' take to the streets and riot?? Just asking.

That would be me. 

As for another AWB, I'm not sure it'll matter what we do with the way things are headed; there's a perfect storm brewing on a global scale.

Personally, I lost mine on a salmon-hunting trip... It's just not sporting to trick 'em with food. Unfortunately, (expensive) accidents happen.
