Re: NRA vs CNN Tonight 9PM

I need to get some NRA shirts. I'm the NRA as much as any other member, and freedom faces no threats from me.

Concealed carry, that's me. Concealed beliefs, not under any circumstances.

Re: NRA vs CNN Tonight 9PM

A corollary of the current round of idiocy comes to mind.

A psychopath chooses a gun to inflict injury and death.

The police select their firearms to protect themselves and the public from, typically, one aggressor at a time. Even when confronting a streetful of concerned Ferguson citizens, they don't need guns for mass killing. They need safe, dependable guns for addressing individual actors.

If the arguments against my guns hold water, then why do the police need anything so, cough, terrible as an AR15?

Incidentally, I don't drink my own koolaid. Terrible taste. I think everyone of age and sound mind should practice with the weapons they all should have.

Re: NRA vs CNN Tonight 9PM

I heard someone on Fox say that a psychological screening should be required before buying an AR15. I see the feel-good in that idea, but it's pretty bogus.

You can't buy firearms with serious convictions on your record. The real world tests you, and pushes your buttons. If you're a problem child, you're fairly certain to collect serious convictions.

With hundreds of millions of firearms out there, it looks like natural selection weeds out a lot of nuts.

The little fellow wants to take your guns, but not all at once. He just wants change. A little bit now, a little bit later.

Makes me want a bump fire stock. Not to actually use the silly thing, but to respond to his hysteria.

God grant the victims' families peace, and justice for the perpetrator. May due process reign for him, so it can hold firm for all of us.
