We _aren't_ speaking the same language.  I'm speaking the language of
American English, while you are speaking in conformity with the Hegelian
dialectic.  In your language anyone who owns a gun & belongs to NRA is
"pro-gun," regardless of the fact that they've been voting for anti-gun
Republicans since they've been old enough to vote.  In your language, a
Fascist is a slur, the same as an SOB or MF . . . not a Socialist
Totalitarian Communist operating under the Fascist facade of private
property "ownership."  In your language, Fascist conformity = correctness. 
Your language is designed to lead to apathy & surrender . . . that's why I
don't speak in your tongue.  
 
 GP>Only the
 GP>politically ignorant use political terms for attempted name calling.
 EP> That was exactly my point. Thanks. EP
No Ernie . . . _your_ point was just the opposite, that "anti-gun" &
"Fascist" are just dirty names, not identifiers of political
persuasions.  Here it is, again:
 EP> If you don't consider those to be slurs, you and I aren't
 EP> speaking the same language. EP
You called them "name calling" & "slurs," when in reality
they identify someone's political position, such as anti-gunners who vote
for Fascists like Dole.
People who vote for Dole are anti-gunners because Dole is anti-gun.  I
think that should be pretty clear.  It identifies their political position
to be just exactly what it is . . . anti-gun.  You see, its not a slur.
Dole is a Fascist because he wants our guns so he can be used as a willing
instrument to impose down on us Socialist Tyranny.  Dole is in the same
position as Mussolini was, in that he favors Communist Socialism but the
position of the church is that ownership of private property is a God-given
right.  So, just like Mussolini, Dole has chosen to assist in enslaving us
under Fascist Socialism with its thin veneer of private property
"ownership."  You see, its a description of Dole's politics, not to be
confused with calling Dole a "dirty name."
Dole is a SOB.  --  name calling
Dole is a DemoPublican. --  identifies his political party
Dole is a bastard.  --  name calling
Dole is a Fascist.  --  identifies his preferred political method for       
                        subjugating the American people after he gets
                        their guns
Fascism is more than a "dirty name."  Its a political system that survives
on filthy actions . . . . .  IOW, all Fascists are SOB's, but not all SOB's
are Fascists.  Hope this clears things up.
 
 GP>EP>Which is it? Are you all B.S. and bluster; or don't you believe what
 GP>EP>you're saying?
 
 GP>I believe in voting only for pro-gun candidates, & I do it.
 EP> But you didn't answer the question, you dodged it. Why? EP

I did answer the question, Ernie.
You asked me that if I believed what is actually the truth, then why didn't
I take up a rifle & hit the street . . . or some such.
I answered that I vote only pro-gun.  That's how I back up what I believe
in.  I exercise my political power by voting pro-gun.
Political power is in effect a representation of physical force (ie, force
of arms).  Voting is the civilized means through which we weild our
political power.  In every society & every country, those with the most
guns have all the political power.  In America, The People have the most
guns & therefore control the political power.  This seems about to change
as our employees are hell-bent on shifting the force of arms from The
People and to themselves in their Fascist fanaticism.  When that happens I
will vote with my physical force (arms).  Until then I will exercise my
political power with paper, in a civilized manner.
Does that answer your question?  If not, then state your question more
clearly.
