Please expand on your definition of deficient, as you just a short while ago included those who voted for Republi- as being mentally unfit for gun
ownership:

>I don't want to repeal the 2nd Amendment,
>I just want to restrict gun ownership to, >mainly, those who can vote
(with a few >exceptions, such as abusers and the >mentally incompetent who keep voting >RepubliChristians

Was this a serious statement or just tossed out in the heat of the flamewar?
Either way, sir, it does you little credit. Would you seek similar limits on the 1st amendment rights of such people?

Please clarify your parameters for declaring someone deficient.

Thank you.
