That's disrespectful to infectious human waste.

Sorry. I'm just so upset. I apologize.

Just a quick word to everyone. I live in DFW, and this is pretty much all anyone is talking about today. When asked what you think about the whole thing, be careful not to immediately go to how it may affect gun rights. I know it's on all of our minds, but it appears insensitive. I also know it's not the first reaction any of us had. I was horribly saddened and concerned for friends and relatives of friends that are Dallas cops. I was dismayed at the very real possibility of race riots as a result. Then I realized that it would be used by the POTUS to push for an AWB. Just be tactful in the way you bring it up. Maybe point out that it was really tasteless of the POTUS to use this tragedy to push his political agenda in the very first statement he made on this tragedy. That it speaks to his character that he is capitalizing on the deaths of brave police officers to try to further his ends.
I know most of you probably know this and are handling the whole thing tactfully. I'm not at all pointing fingers. I just thought it warranted saying.

Point well taken Lucas. You are all in my prayers.

Wholeheartedly agree. Though I no longer live in the DFW area, I am a native of Garland, a NTSU grad and attended El Centro. My heart goes out to all. We of the firearms community need to tactfully and appropriately express our views. Blame the criminal, not the implement.

No, let's ban hate altogether. We can also ban violence, but that will hardly be needed once there is no more hate in this world. Man, why didn't someone think of this sooner. Surely if the law says we can't feel hatred, then it will just magically go away.
Of course, 99% of all political ads will have to be reworked to talk about a candidate's strengths instead of their opponents weaknesses, but all that rework will be good for the economy, right?
