Remember how I've been reminding everyone that we—meaning Libertarians and Realio-Trulio Conservatives—were about to start squabbling in earnest, and implored everyone to be civil and respectful?

Well, it's started. And I'm having trouble finding civil or respectful on the menu.

I've got a Glock .40, and I don't want to sit the other right-wing bloggers down and make them sing "Kumbayah" like schoolchildren in "enlightened" classrooms.

But I will if I have to.

1 I think the debate remained very civil, for the most part.

2 I wasn't clear enough: your readers were polite. The comments you imported from Malkin's discussion gave me the impression that her readers weren't equally respectful. My bad.

3 Just so we have that straight. This rightwingblogger packs heat too you know...;-)

4 Somehow I pictured you as an MP5-SD type of girl. Nothing like a 9mm assault rifle with an integrated silencer and a collaspsible stock. Could go for the 10mm version, but, it doesn't have the 3 shot selector. Maybe the .45 cal? Not quite as quite, but packs a wallop. Have to take it to SF with you

5 I think it helps to hash these things out. What doesn't destroy us only makes us stronger. We get so accustomed to using hyperbole and extreme rhetoric when dispatching the left, it doesn't hurt us to (re-)learn how to disagree civilly within our own camp.

6 Right. Again, the quotes from the discussion over at Malkin's place were a little disturbing—especially the implied notion that libertarianism is some sort of cancer that has to be cut out of the party. But, of course, that was two quotes (both of which appear in the Protein Wisdom entry I link above), and they represent only two people's thoughts. William, I like a good rifle, but for close quarters nothing beats a nice handgun—and I have a 30-round mag for my Glock.
