Another RINO!

http://politicalwire.com/archives/2013/02/27/lawmaker_compares_gun_control_to_castration.html

Illinois state Rep. Jim Sacia (R) went on an epic tirade against Democratic legislators for forcing gun control on the entire state to deal with Chicago's "run away gun problem" and said the state's gun control laws are akin to asking him to get "castrated" because Chicagoans are having too many babies.

Said Sacia: "Here's an analogy folks, I ask you to think of this: You folks in Chicago, want me to get castrated because you're families are having too many kids. It spells out exactly what is happening here! You want us to get rid of guns..."

Always knew the Republicans were compensating for something when they wanted big guns Wink

Yes, we've known this about men and their big guns for a long time.

But in all seriousness Illinois gun law is stricter than most surrounding states.

The subject line of this thread is misleading. He compared it to castrating one person because other people keep having kids. In a state like Illinois with a massive city like Chicago and a lot of rural areas, he does have a point.

Not really, since someone in Chicago trying to get a gun that is illegal there could just go to the rural areas to buy one...

I wonder if the guy was even aware he was feeding right into a widespread perception about why some guys are so into long gun barrels. Smiley

nitpick: castration removes the testicles, not the... barrel.
