On the Democratic side, Hillary has already stated she would not overwrite anything should she become the next POTUS but the opposite has been said by Trump and another Republican candidate (the name of whom currently escapes me).

EDIT: Senator Ted Cruz

Speaking of Cruz:

This was his fundraising campaign back in October.

As I have stated before this is an all American domestic issue and should be solved by them self

I only hope for the innocent there will come some law or laws which both side can agree on.

not likely to happen anytime soon as election season is right around the corner. Common sense is dead. Fear and polarizing party politics rule the day.

Let's hope Hillary the Liar doesn't get elected. If she does, it will be a continuation of the crap Obama has pulled on us. And both of them should be in prison for what happened in Benghazi.

Seriously, every politician should be in prison. They've all pulled crap to be where they are and none of them have clean hands.

Maybe Hillary's daughter should be the next Libyan ambassador.

If you don't want a liar to be elected... you want no one to be elected.
You can't possibly imply that Hillary is any different then the others?

I also hope that Hillary doesn't make it to the oval office, but in all likelihood there is a pretty good chance. I don't think there will be another republican president in a very long time unfortunately.

My problem with gun control is that the far left wants to go too far and totally ban semi automatic rifles and handguns and the far right wants to do too little when it comes to restrictions. If we look at the class three weapons license which allows a person to own fully automatic firearms in the US. It requires a person to pay 1,000 dollars, get fingerprinted by the fbi, and have the sheriff of the township stop by your house to be sure you have a safe secure place to store such weapons. There has not been a single incidence where a person with a class 3 has used their firearms for ill intent. If we enacted something similar but not as extreme for AR type weapons and semi auto handguns I believe it could significantly reduce the amount of incidences. For example if someone wants a handgun or an AR they would go through a training course, background check, a possible evaluation, then that person would get his or her license to purchase and possess that type of firearm. But once again this would be too little for the democrats and too much draconian government tyranny for the republicans.

I hate to be "that guy". Well actually I love being that guy.

1. On September 15th, 1988, a 13-year veteran of the Dayton, Ohio police department, Patrolman Roger Waller, (32), used his legally possessed fully automatic MAC-11 .380 caliber sub-machine gun to kill a police informant, 52-year-old Lawrence Hileman.

Patrolman Waller pleaded guilty in 1990, and he and an accomplice were sentenced to 18 years in prison.

He got 15 years to life plus 3 years for using a gun in crime. Parole was denied in January 2011 and he still lives at Grafton Correctional

2. Dr. Shou Chao Ho killed Dr. Carmelito Olaes on 14 September 1992 and pleaded guilty to it. Sentenced 15 years to life by judge Judy Cross and 3 years for using a firearm in a crime plus he also had charges for harassing hospital staff with firearms.

He is still in Warren Correctional first parole hearing is in september of 2016.

While a very small number, unfortunately we can not say that no legally owned class 3 machine gun has ever been used in a crime.

Depends on the state. Each one is different in that regard. Which state would you be talking about?

I'll know when I'll decide to go. It's only theoretical for now.
