    ...Except that I was for it. Evidence is in these forums. I'm merely advising of how to pass it on a second attempt since it didn't go through the first time and the Senate contains the same people as it did a month ago. And the House hasn't discussed it yet. You can keep putting a square peg into a round hole, but I think it sounds foolish

    That's a fair point; I guess what I'm responding to was your triumphalist rhetoric after the bill was defeated, your string of NRA-supplied rationalizations for why it deserved to be defeated; your patently false assertions that the bipartisan bill was an overreach by the Dems and gun-grabbing pinko socialists; and so forth.

    Yes, correct, you were in favor of the bill until the moment it was filibustered. Ever since you'v been quoting the NRA chapter and verse. Hence my reaction.

    That's a fairer read of my position
