NRA supporters are in a tizzy
 

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that gun nuts are exhibiting much more nervousness than usual?

M4 "Saws" in Principal Rambo's office in a glass case with a sign saying "Break Glass in Case of Emergency".

This is very possibly the tipping point and they know it. They've pulled out all the stops, 24/7 Guns 'n' God-palooza! In the past it has just been a holding action, an effort to maintain the status quo, a defensive strategy. This time it's an offensive, finding a "solution" to the problem by increasing the availability of guns, arming everyone. Up to now, that idea has been restricted to the fringe of the fringe. Now it's the right as a whole pushing this. I just hope it doesn't work.

One can only hope that the gun and ammo manufacturers who control the NRA will be scared right now. Allowing the NRP to listen to the majority of their members on a solution to the assault weapons question.


But then again is appears that events like this increase sales.......

...and in the meanwhile Uncle Silas farts and scratches his sack as he sleeps, drunk as a monkey in his ratty ol' recliner, loaded MAC-10 on the table next to an empty bottle o' jack and a pack o' camels. Jimmy Ray, Silases nephew/youngest boy leers at the shiney gun, pickin' his nose, droolin' and thinking now is the time to make the "spider people" who hang out at the bus stop go away---once and for all.

And the voices shout; "GIT IT! GIT'EM, BOY! MAKE THOSE F**KERS PAY! YEEEEEEHAWWWWWW!!!!!! WE GONNA HAVE US A SHOOT OUT JUST LIKE THUH DYUKE IN TRUE GRIT!":rolleyes:

Chit, here we go again.....................

Wow! You in the Holywood mode! :D

I see where th governor of VA wants to arm all the teachers, so now in addition to a degree in teaching you will need certification as a marksman. Dear God has everyone gone mad?

This is one of the tactics I expected. Governorships, mayoralties and school systems under right wing control will implement these insane requirements piecemeal and then dare the federal government to do anything about it.

These maniacs won't go down easily. This is going to be a real mess.

It reeks of the early 1990s all over again.

The hope I see would be from the teachers. It's quite possible that the teachers individually and their unions collectively would refuse to agree to becoming armed guards in their own classrooms.

Then there's this: from a practical point of view, being armed in the classroom doesn't really do anything beyond guaranteeing that you'll be the first one shot.

Exactly. A person planning a shooting would storm the principal's office first. Whoever carries the element of surprise wins.
