  Boy, it sure sounds like we have a real open-minded person here... and he
can't spell very well either.

  Question: Do you know anyone who is homosexual ?

  If so, do you feel as though they will "grab your ass" whenever you are
around them ?  I know several, and I don't feel like anyone I know would
do that to me.

  If you would have bothered to read the REST of the 2nd Amendment it says that
the "right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed IN ORDER
TO KEEP A WELL-REGULATED MILITIA."  There's a big difference between carrying
a gun around for the fun of it and for participation in a militia.

  Yes, and the 8-12 year olds with guns today are doing so to protect the 
United States ?  There's a difference between someone fighting to protect
the country and someone who is carrying a gun to rob people.

  Well, if we have people like you spreading your message of hate, that might
be a big contribution to the problem our society is currently facing.
