How DARE some Christian group even have an opinion about what happens outside their church, at a public event?

So Dave…you consider Christians second class citizens? Not afforded the same rights as everyone else?

Honestly I’m not surprised…

However, you’ll have a problem come November…

Clinton declared: “I believe in the father, son, and Holy Spirit, and I have felt the presence of the Holy Spirit on many occasions in my years on this earth.”

Look at the Middle Ages, everyone carried knives and their was hardly any murder.<br /> <br /> The same is true in Iraq.

Really read him, i.e. getting past his phraseology. Repealing weapons control is a good idea. Look at the Middle Ages, everyone carried knives and their was hardly any murder.

The same is true in Iraq. All US soldiers carry guns, thus no insurgents or Al-Qaeda terrorist challenges them.
