Margaret, I grew up on a farm in Georgia. We had more guns than silverware. To this day, I still have a gun in my house. By all means, if it helps to keep children from being murdered, come and take it. Unlike that Dana Loesch, I dont need it that badly. Bless her heart, when you spew that much hate, I guess you go through life thinking everyone wants to do you harm. She really should try adding a little color to her wardrobe. And maybe smile more or at least once.
Weve talked about it long enough. We need to do something about Americas gun problem. But if we leave it up to those asshats at the Capitol, well be building schools with one door where students are allowed to wear only a leotard while carrying their books in a clear ziplock baggie.
Making it all about a mental health crisis sounds reasonable until you realize that mental health isnt exclusive to the United States and statistically speaking doesnt correspond with our proportionally higher rate of gun violence nor does it specifically apply on a case by case basis. Ouch. That hurt my head a little bit to think through. Maybe thats why NRA Neanderthals settle for low hanging fruit like too many doors and trench coats....
Speaking of Nuts R Allowed Oliver North? Is that a joke or was Wayne LaPierre not generating idiotic ideas fast enough? A culture of violence, says the guy who sold guns to Iran in order to give money to people who tortured civilians and raped women including nuns and children. Yep. That guy. How about we require the NRA to build their headquarters with no entrances or exits?
