Is it possible to be a progressive DUer and a gun owner?
I am a 62 year old former combat infantryman. I've been shot. By an AK-47. It ****ing hurt. I own two long guns (a shotgun and a rifle) and two hand guns (a 9mm pistol, and the .45 caliber service revolver that my Dad carried as a fighter pilot in WWII). I have been a progressive Democrat since I was old enough to think. I hunt, and my family and I eat everything I kill. I think trophy hunters have a screw loose. I have a VA concealed carry permit. I was (and would be again) in favor of Virginia's AWB before George ****ing Allen lied his ass off to get elected, and then promptly overturned it contrary to his campaign promise. (Happily, I later stumbled into an opportunity to call him a lying asshole, to his face, on a Richmond sidewalk, but that's a story for another time.) I supported Virginia's one-gun-a-month law (how many ****ing guns does ANYONE need?) I support universal background checks and the closing of the gun show loophole. I support a ban on high capacity magazines. I don't believe any private citizen needs to have access to armor-piercing (cop-killer) ammunition. I believe that George Zimmerman, that cowardly cop wannabe, should spend the rest of his life in prison.
So help me out here, DU. Am I a gun humper, a gun fetishist, a Gungeoneer, or just a plain old Delicate Flower?

It's a good thing no one could see his face when he typed that.

Remember that he went to basic after his so called combat engagement took place.

55. I for one appreciate some common sense from a gun owner

I don't see this as flame bait as all. The OP, I know from past experience, doesn't like me, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating his sensible position expressed in the OP. Far too many gunners on this site refuse to consider the measures 11 Bravo says he supports.

All these apply to a certain small but vocal group that do not believe in any of those things...some even believe we need more zimmermans.

I hope that helps.

By the way looking forwards to that other story. Pols never take kindly

28. I think all legitimate gun owners needs to have their guns destroyed

and report to the nearest mental hospital for evaluations.

I, for one, do NOT understand why there is a real need to own guns, and guns that kill people - and PEOPLE KNOW THAT.

We're degenerating to Idiocracy mode, and yesterday's verdict proved that.

I'm so glad I live in a sane state, and people like James Holmes will be found guilty and sentenced to death here.

James Holmes is a perfect example of what's wrong with owning guns.

You are the reason that we own guns.

and therefore not a 'progressive' value, as in: making progress, making things better.

its being a right is another issue. the 2A is poorly worded, and people going about strapping is not what I think the authors had in mind.

my anecdotal experience is those most enthusiastic about guns were the ones that I least trusted to handle them intelligently.

Both Colt and S&W made the model 1917 which saw service in WW l. I don't recall it being issued to pilots in WW ll.  In fact, I think that it was taken out of service prior to WW ll. They were issued a M&P M10.

They used the M1911 in WWII. That was the standard issue sidearm for officers.

Yeah, color me unimpressed, DUmmies.  Nads has a more legit claim to being a combat vet than 11 Bullshitter.

NumbersBoo is as much a firearms as his fellow phony soldier, DUmpmonkey DUmoTex.

You may remember DUmoTex as the developer of the 5.56mm anti-tank cannon.

NumbersBoo claims to have been in Viet Nam battles that occurred before the dates he claims for basic training.

His "combat" is as honestly described as that of TomInTib.

These guys, and traitors like Manning and Snowden, are what passes for heroes in the democrat party.

Lie some more, you ****ing retard.

It's possible, but pretty unlikely.  Both the Colt and S&W M1917s were 'Substitute standard,' and were issued when there weren't enough 1911s to go 'round back then.  But real fighter pilots were first in line for the good stuff from start to finish, so maybe 11 Booboo just comes from a long line of liars.

I don't believe any private citizen needs to have access to armor-piercing (cop-killer) ammunition.

DUmmy numbersBoo again puts his gun savvy on display.

You can't have polymer-coated projectiles because they're cop-killers.

You can't have armor-piercing projectiles because they're cop-killers.

You can't have hollow points (which democrats invariably and ironically call DUmDUm bullets) because they're cop-killers.

You can't have .223 Remington, because they perform that mythical but deadly tumbling wander through the body, and are cop-killers.

And God forbid you have a .50 Barrett because its sole purpose is as a cop-killer.

It is a wonder that we still have any cops.

BTW, what the DUmbass who claims to be an 11B doesn't understand, is it isn't armor-piercing bullets that cops are worried about, it's Teflon-coated bullets, and an armored vehicle, if it could emote, would laugh it's ass off at a Teflon-coated bullet coming it's way. Teflon-coated bullets were extremely effective at penetrating earlier bullet-proof vests. Armor-piercing rounds, not so much.

No. General Washington was partial to his M-16 due to its light weight and carried it throughout the Revolution, but it never killed a redcoat because its ammunition would not be available for nearly 200 years.

.45 caliber service revolver that my Dad carried as a fighter pilot in WWII)

Unless I am seriously mistaken, that would have been a .38 S&W.  I've been wrong before.  It could have been a M1917 Colt New Service, but that was dropped from production in early '41.

So our favorite lying sack of cow dung is at it again. He has at least 4 guns but yet supports a one gun a month policy not to mention all the standard anti gun laws pushed by the hard left now known as the Democratic Party. Sounds like he not only has become proficiant at lying but is now a hypocrite as well. He should give those weapons up and let someone that would take care of them have them.

Your lying BooBoo and we all know it. Nothing you have typed at the DUmp has been true. you make shit up as you go along and I bet all four of your guns are more likely imaginary or maybe airsoft . Your more then likely one of those thousands of deserters that Carter pardons after he took office and you want some cred with the proglydites on DU.

S&W and Colt both made the M1917 revolver, and according to one article I just read (I didn't know about the .45 revolver), they made several hundred thousand of them.

S&W and Colt both made the M1917 revolver, and according to one article I just read (I didn't know about the .45 revolver), they made several hundred thousand of them.

Revolvers weren't standard issue for officers or pilots during WWII. The M1911 automatic .45 ACP was.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

BTW, they made several thousand Henry rifles; doesn't mean they used them in WWI. They made millions of M-14s, and they got away from them as well. Bad mistake on their part, but it happened.
