(2,708 posts)Johnston: Loutish speech are not crimes. false comparison.
I'm not calling for them to be imprisoned, just fired or sanctioned, rather than sit on the nra bd of directors.
Was it the fbi or the secret service which investigated nugent for his 'loutish speech' threatening Obama?
I didn't see any serious violent crimes up there in your list Johnston, like aggravated assault, robbery, murder, arson - except for one for assault with a firearm by melton & a sex assault on a child, for two.
Wow, two or 3 outta thousands, who'd a thunk it? were they democrats as well? and again, how does this redound upon MAIG?
Johnston: Since we are here, how about "children of NRA members should be murdered"?
You LIE. You're twisting about what was said, you intentionally mislead. And where did that link using your very words above come from, since it doesn't appear anywhere in the article, nor really on a google. You're not inserting your words onto a link are you?
.. the guy isn't actually saying that nra member's children should be murdered, he's essentially saying it would be different if nra children were the one's dying, instead of non-nra kids:
Associate professor David Warner Guth, masters degree in journalism.. tweeted: #NavyYardShooting The blood is on the hands of the #NRA. Next time, let it be YOUR sons and daughters . Shame on you. May God damn you.
Also he said: The blood spilled today is on the hands of the National Rifle Association. I dont care how the NRA tries to spin this. One fact is undeniable: The NRA has championed a gun culture that is shredding our nations moral authority like armor-plated bullets ripping through flesh. Is that imagery too graphic for you? It is no worse than what we are seeing every night on our television screens. Do our citizens have a right to bear arms? Certainly, thats what the Constitution says. But as it is with every other right enumerated in the Bill of Rights, there are limits. A persons right to go about his or her job at the Navy Yard or for that matter to attend an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut trumps any individuals right to stockpile weapons of mass destruction in the name of personal freedom. I dont wish what happened today on anyone. But if it does happen again and it likely will may it happen to those misguided miscreants who suggest that todays death toll at the Navy Yard would have been lower if the employees there were allowed to pack heat. Those fools dont get it.
