“Well-researched, smartly argued editorials are part of what newspapers do to hold public officials accountable.”

If only the Gazette followed that format. The Gazette Editorial Board certainly holds one political party more accountable than the other. I guess that's Skips idea of "strong editorials".

I'm not the one making the Constitution argument. Its lack of specificity, but general guidlines, is exactly why the government (We The People) can ban full-auto weapons, not limit abortions, and decide to aid other countries.

Did you even read the article? Very little is about banning certain weapons.

Chicago is not an island.

"...why hasn't making drugs illegal stopped the spread of them?"

"If you make guns illegal then the only ones with guns will be outlaws, so how does that make us law abiding citizens safer?"

The Sandy Hook shooter used a legally obtained assualt weapon.

I never wrote that people couldn't fight the U.S. government because of the armed forces superior firepower. You did. That being said, I don't see many of those people flying fighter jets and UAV's.

A 10 round magazine in a semi-auto rifle is not a pitchfork. Typical logical fallacy. You've still failed to make the argument that a 20+ magazine is required to overthrow a tyranical government.

Besides, comparing the Taliban and Iraqis to U.S. citizens is outragious. Who are you comparing the Taliban to, U.S. civillians or U.S. military?
