You know it and I know it.
Bullcrap. Well, more like steer manure but why quibble? Sorry, Jack but the writing's on the wall-no more military grade weapons in civilian hands, no more high capacity magazines, no more unregulated private sales of firearms and serious background checks are going to be instituted. Y'all have no one to blame but yourselves. You aren't one of those paranoiacs who thinks that these shooters were Democrat agents/plants who killed all of those kids and teachers? What about that orange haired psyco who shot up the movie theater in Aurora, Colorado? Was he a plant?
Thorn in their side? It's more like a splinter in my finger, festering a bit, but I keep on working...

Speaking of which, gotta go unplug a toilet and re seat it, the flange is probably toast, dang it!. Sure is preferable to reading the far right wingnuttery spewing crazy shit here. See ya later, fellas.

Noah Pozner was identified by the coroner as the youngest of the victims. He was shot 11 times.

Jack, you and the rest of the gun nuts have lost the moral argument and now, with over 80% of the people, and over half of NRA members, favoring stricter gun controls, you're abbout to lose the political argument. Get used to.it.

The longer you blind idiots drag this out, the worse it will get. You are your own worst enemy.

I see nothing in what has been proposed as a "gun grab". There are NO proposed gun seizures, AFAIK. You have NO REASONABLE purpose for owning any of the affected weapons (By a potential ban.) anyways.

You're nothing but a spoiled little punk, bitching and crying because you're afraid mommy is going to take your toys. Grow up.

Just how much worst will it get? Then when it gets to that point a bigger hammer will fall. One way more Draconian then anything proposed so far. Then who will they blame? Not themselves I know for sure!


Will it take a Republican being shot? Like after Reagan and Brady were shot? Lets hope the Wife's and Mothers of the nation children weigh in on the side of common sense regarding this issue.


I for one do not want to see or hear of another shooting.

Come on guys, is this any way to welcome back an old friend? I throw you a bone
and get accussed of being a paranoid conspiracy theory right wing nut job?

The NRA is under attack and they are not going down without throwing a
few punches. They are being drug into this fight along with innocent hobbyist,
hunters and sportsmen. An assault weapons and clip ban is just a formality.
What is an assault weapon anyhow? A military grade weapon designed to
wound and not kill? Those AR style weapons use a .223 which is really just
a souped up squirrel round. Does a pistol grip and a short stock make a rifle
more deadly? Take that same rifle and remove the pistol grip, add a scope and
it's just a common hunting rifle for small game. A common deer rifle could
be easily modified becoming much more of an assault rifle than a military
type assault rifle. 3 ten round clips could easily be cut with a dremel tool
and pieced into a 30 round clip.
Having said all that I do agree that the average guy should be subjected to
a background check before buying a gun and doctors should be able to report
persons of questionable mental health. But only under the conditions that the
government can not access those records and it is run by a third party.
Is that too much to ask?

The guy that bombed the university in Syria killed 82.
I wonder if he would have gone to the trouble of making or acquiring a bomb had there been a gun handy?

If we lived in this magical fantasy land without guns, we might be just like Syria, where a super power starts flooding the country with lots of military grade weapons to those they support.
It'd be loverly, as long as you were on the side getting the guns.
