Sad point of view.

A little clue by the way, in a perfect world, you wouldn't need guns. The fact it is imperfect is the very reason you have to have them.

By the way, I don't agree with his arguments at all.

Agreed.

And the guy's comments about how rural American control Congress smacks of city liberal elitism and that 'we know whats best for you whether you like it or not' outlook too.

Ridiculing the electoral system, which keeps men such as this from having complete control of the gov't and thus our rights ...and being governed solely from the other side of the country by such as him is a cornerstone of such speeches.
