...." negative and counter productive "... ... meaning you don't agree with me.
Or is that " find " meant as a judge would mean it ? (rhet.) It's somewhat pretentious to couch your opinions as findings.

You mistake me if you lump me among your enemies, as I want to keep my guns, not have them registered, and not ever have them confiscated.

But to ask and expect the rest of the people in the country to tolerate the increasing number of massacres without any legislative reaction is unrealistic.

To really be productive, there should be some pro-active legislation requiring more enforcement of existing laws, and some further proposals designed to reduce the incidents of massacre. Without that, we are just waiting for the opposition to take their initiatives. Just digging in the heels and resisting changes in the law won't work, we need to propose something better.
