Was Reagan a good president?

Just to be clear, if you want to deny guns to felons, that would be anti-gun?

Just to be clear would you say that any of the comments on restricting second amendment rights that Kutnupe or Rambone listed would be anti-gun? If not...what if it was anyone but Ronald Reagan?

First, do you admit that your comments which I posed to Rambone are anti-gun, which makes you anti-gun on the same criteria as you're judging Reagan?

That's some creative spamming right there^^ Man, how do they do that?

Martial Law in Berkeley

Another forgotten piece of Reagan history was his imposition of martial law on the town of Berkeley for several weeks in 1969. Reagan sent in 2,700 National Guard troops to occupy the town and declared, "[FONT=Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif]If it takes a bloodbath, let's get it over with! No more appeasement."[/FONT]

A curfew was imposed, soldiers chased around citizens with bayonets fixed to their rifles, cameras were confiscated, helicopters dumped chemical weapons on the town.

This of course took place after Reagan decided that citizens had no right to bear arms on his streets.

Rambone, how dare you post pictures or facts? Carmel will say they were falsehoods and another democrat ploy to drag the golden one down.

Ok, I have had my fun as debating Carmel is about like fighting a blindfolded one armed man when it comes to anything Ronald Reagan related. Anyone that looks through the blind loyalty can see he wasn't the great conservative that he is trumped up to be. Carmel, are you sure you aren't from Chicago? You are now trying to spin my saying violent felons shouldn't be allowed to carry compared to Ronald Reagan stripping law abiding citizens of their right to carry along with full registration of firearms. Ya, that is so close to being the same thing....seriously are you that disillusioned that you have to spin things that badly to try and make any since with your stance?

Now, anyone who keeps saying how Reagan was better then Carter...well ya anybody would have been. If your standard of judging how good Reagan was is by comparing him to how bad Jimmy Carter was then you are doing your position a major disservice. That is about like saying a polished turd is better then an unpolished one since at the end of the day you have two piles of

I guess Reagan should have just let the students take over Berkeley and shut it down. Then when they try to shut the statehouse down he could let them have that. Hell, let them have the whole country,...not! btw, he was re-elected after this by a wide majority.

I lived the 60's and can see through all the BS that went on then.

That may have been Reagan's greatest moment. It's when he showed he understood what Lincoln was demonstrating when he did the same thing...

Fix bayonets, men. Call in air support.

Reagan called the Berkeley campus "a haven for communist sympathizers, protesters and sex deviants."

So, you're saying Reagan was Captain Obvious?

Ok, I laughed. But obviously being a member of one of those groups does not justify and armed response.
