I have good reason to feel that way.

The rest of you who don't share my views? Believe it or not, there are Americans who share my views For instance an old friend of mine - a single mom - and her three grown-up children all live in a Chicago suburb and none of them has a gun.

Americans who are against the second amendment are a tiny minority. Incorporation will soon rid us of laws like Chicago's.

Hint: The answer is not illegal aliens...
The answer is illegal immigrants... just because YOU say its not doesn't make it true... when you have poor population crime is high.. and where can you attribute the poor population? Illegal immigrants... of course, they are filthy rich if you compare them to the standards of their native country before they came over here illegally... one has to wonder why they came over here... duh.. if greed is the root of all evil, then I guess illegal immigrants must be evil... unless you are a liberal who cherry picks who is evil and who isn't...
