Alex Wagner and MSNBC #Fail in a big way

Alex had wing nut Megan McArdle on today and did NOT discuss or call her out on her recent insane comments about Sandy Hook and how children should be trained to run at shooters instead of running away and hiding.
The biggest fail in MSNBC's recent history
Then why did you have this nut on people?
Her "opinion"?
Really?
#FAIL Alex. Big time

Today's homework: The 3 R's - Reading, Riting and Reloading.....

We don't give our teachers enough educational resources for the classroom like books, computers, pencils and paper but we are more than willing to buy them each guns & ammunition?

It's hard to believe Governor but forcing women to undergo an unnecessary trans-vaginal probe is now NOT the biggest, stupidest idea you've ever had in your whole life.

Discussion over.

McDonnell: It’s time to discuss arming teachers

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/dec/18/mcdonnell-its-time-discuss-arming-teachers/

"RICHMOND | Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell said Tuesday that policymakers should not overreact to the Connecticut school shooting but should discuss allowing school officials to carry firearms on campus.

Friday’s shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School left 26 dead, including 20 children. It has renewed the gun debate, with President Obama pledging to address gun violence in the coming weeks. Some Democrats, like Virginia U.S. Sen. Mark Warner and avid hunter and West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, have said they now favor more restrictions on guns.

Mr. McDonnell, a Republican, said during his monthly radio show on Washington’s WTOP on Tuesday that if school officials were trained and chose to have a weapon, they might have an opportunity to stop someone from trying to get into a school.

“I know there’s been a knee-jerk reaction against that. I think there should at least be a discussion of that,” Mr. McDonnell said. “If people were armed, not just a police officer, but other school officials that were trained and chose to have a weapon, certainly there’d be an opportunity to stop aggressors coming into the schools.”....."




edit for a more provocative subject line.

Show me the passage in the Bible where God tells you to cling to your guns.

Is it the part right after "Do not Kill"?

About ZonkerHarris

Nixon was a fucking crook. As a teenager I marched on the UN in 1982 with a million other people demanding we get rid of the threat of nuclear weapons hanging over our heads. Since then I've worked to get Democrats elected like John Aristotle Phillips, known as the A-Bomb Kid when he ran for Congress against Stuart McKinney in CT in the 80's (we lost twice) through the Obama campaign in 2008 and 2012. I want to legalize cannabis, reform our prison for profit system, cut our military budget, get out of Afghanistan and push solar energy panels into every building in the USA.
