20 hours a day ?
No son , I just turn it on occasionally if I sit down to rest my sciatica.

I've put a view here which is perfectly rational and which is quite consistent with the motives and beliefs of the Founding Fathers and countless millions of Americans and others who consider individual rights more important than the promises of tyrants to protect people.
These promises are never kept, by the way, and if decent men were disarmed criminals and lunatics would still get guns to commit atrocities .
That's almost by the way though. The more pressing issue here is that we've got a gang of political fanatics who can't back up their beliefs with logical thought so they react by becoming angry and abusive.

After a very long time of studying related subjects, dealing with the practical side of these issues and considering the arguments against the broader pattern of human history and behaviour, I'm supposed
to " change my mind and admit I'm talking bollocks ", on the say so of a few kids who wouldn't know an SLR from a banjo or name 10 American Revolutionaries without googling it.

Well, guess what ? I don't have to go along with your views because I think they're wrong and foolish, and I'm afraid that I don't much care if you get angry about that or whether my opinion is popular with your little message board clique. I've used this quote here before , but it says it all - " Those who give up their Liberty for security will deserve neither and end up losing both "
