okay so because of the VT shooting, they have now been working on new Gun Control Provisions to help keep us safer.

The idea has been to keep guns out of the hands of those who are criminals, and those who have mental defect.

So now the new provision to the law is that states now share information with the FBI and the NICS, so that people like the person who killed those 31 students and teachers aren't able to get their hands on guns anymore.

The NRA is in support of this, and there has only been one argument againt the provision sighting it is an infringment on Second Amendment Rights.

so what do you think? Do you agree with the provision? Do you think it will work? Do you think it will help to keep/stop those who shouldn't have gun ( bought legally )?

Or

Do you think that this is just another way to step on the toes of those who are good gun owners and infringe on the Second Amendment rights?

Why did Hitler jail and murder socialists all during his nightmare regime? I just wonder since so many people see the 'socialist' in National Socialist.... party and think Hitler was a socialist.

Do some people who call him a socialist just do that to offer some kind of proof against socialism? Bush calls himself a Christian, but I wouldn't hold that against Jesus.

Simple question, 3 parts
Part 1. Did you know this line is in Darwin’s “The origins of Species”?
“There is a grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally BREATHED by the CREATOR into a few forms, or into one.”
Part 2. If you believe that Darwin got it right on evolution, and he stated a belief in a Creator, why do you deny the possibility of one?
Part 3. Considering you accept the rest of the book, but do not accept the possibility of a Creator, do you ignore and disregard what you do not like or find inconvenient to your belief system in the rest of your life?
I just wanted to hear your explanation of why he wrote this, and why you do not accept this sentence with the rest of the book. You may read for yourself his own words, which are left out of most modern reprints. It is the last paragraph, of the last chapter, here is the link.

Everytime I read something about politics it always mentions GOP -- what the heck does that mean & what does it stand for? It's driving me crazy. I've asked some people who I figured would know the answer & they themselves have no clue.

The same people that want more sectarian violence so they can "stay the course" in iraq? Remember the two undercover British SAS soldiers who were detained by Iraqi security forces whilst traveling in a car full of bombs and remote detonators.

Many of our country's "enemies" have offered help to us in wake of tragic events; most of their offers refused.

In Hurricane Katrina, Cuba was one of the first nations to respond and offered to send doctors, tons of medicinal supplies, and money. The US Government declined and told Cuba "no". Now say what you want about political differences but if help is offered immiediately it really doesn't matter who it is coming from and you are declining the supplies offered to the people who need it.

Also in Hurricane Katrina assistance from France was at first rejected but we later on accepted their aid.

On 9/11 Mayor Guiliani would not accept a 1 million dollar donation from Saudi Arabia.

How do you feel about our government declining the aid of our "enemies". I use "enemies" in quotes because I don't regard Cuba and France as threats to us. It is a way to mend relations with our nations; to work together in wake of tragedies. A step towards making progress during these wars.

There's an AWFUL lot of partisan bashing going on - and by that, I mean questions posted for no purpose other than to insult the other users of this site.

It looks like the evidence is in.
Bo&Zo really ****** up, getting the USA involved in wars inside Islam.
Now the world's #1 superpower has been shown to be a paper tiger and the savage lunatic terrorists and Muslim Jihad smell blood. There's no way the USA is going to win (whatever a win would be?) over there. No way.
And when, not if, they lose all of USA interests in the whole Middle East will be in peril and Islamic Jihad will be empowered more than ever.
This is by far the worst blunder ever in American foreign policy and military history because the consequences of losing over there will be way worse than Vietnam.

The reason being that some people simply cannot take a joke!!! I make one comment about cokeheads and alcholics running for office and make a little joke out of it and I get blasted via e-mail for being insensitive to people with addictions. Also I was told a "tree-hugging hippie" shouldn't say something like that. What the hell does that mean??? (Aren't hippies INFAMOUS for using drugs??? Am I right, conservatives?)

And who else here is simply fed up with this section???

I lost my last account because of some ****** on here and after what I said to the ****** who e-mailed me, I'll probably lose this one!

Why can we not seem to have an intelligent conversation or make a simple joke??? YAY for Bush!!! He recovered from being an alcoholic and a coke-head!!! Are you happy now??? All I said was that I'd run for President if all I had to do was "blow lines and hit the bottle every night".

Joke. HaHa.

So what gives, folks???

I am 60% disabled, and upon honorable discharge, I was told that since I did not serve for 3 years I was not eligible for MGIB. I have been told by many veterans that I am eligible for other educational benefits through the VA. Where can I find resources for these benefits online? As a lot of veterans know, the VA seems to make it hard to find out these things.
