Love that "Gun control theory"; have quoted that in multiple places.  Response?  >>crickets<<

That's because the logic of it doesn't address their emotional response to gun crime.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I've seen many people pointing out the massacre in Norway, and that just doesn't compute for the Leftists - or it does, and they think they can close their eyes real tight and plug their ears and the truth will just go away.

You can ban all guns from all law abiding citizens, and killers bent on destruction will still kill and destroy. The only variable is whether there may or may not be someone on the scene of the crime with the tools, the courage, and the skill to intervene on behalf of the innocent.

That reality makes liberals wet their panties, and exposes totalitarian politicians for exactly who and what they are.

I heard a guy on the radio last week, I like the guy but he had the wrong idea.  He thought making the cost of bullets $1/ea would make them too expensive for bangers and other would-be murderers to shoot up everyone.  Totally misses the mark, all they would do is steal them from businesses and more concerning from us!

We should be encouraging more law-abidding citizens to carry concealed or open and have ZERO harrassment from the authorities for doing so.  Once the criminals realize there are a lot of people willing and able to shoot at them, it will cut down on violent crime big time!

I read one article where a witness said he was yelling at people, saying something like "What are you doing?! I told you to stand!", and grabbed at least one victim by the hair or shirt and shooting them at point blank range.

Awful as that is, it underscores, to my mind at least, that a citizen with a concealed firearm probably could have taken him out.

More likely several would have been close enough to put him down.  Just unconscionable.

Some female type around this house suggested
she would have crawled under the seats and
pulled his legs out from under him.

The people in the audience certainly did not
respond in a manner my fellow high school
students would have.

Wrong use of the word allowed.  He shouldn't have been allowed to breath after being seen aiming weapons at anybody, period.  O'Reilly can be such a pompous jackass!

I had a libtard co-worker tell me that buying so much ammo over a couple of months should have set off alarm bells.  I told her I had bought that much. That if you shoot a lot, its not hard to go through 1000 rounds in a day . Besides how many rounds did he get off? 100?  You can only carry so much.  Should that set off alarm bells too? What about the government buying 450 Million rounds of Hollowpoint? Did that set off any alarm bells in her mind?   She doesn't know anything about guns - hell the "breakin" for a lot of weapons is 100-400 rounds. Also had to explain that a "semi-auto assault rifle" is only  cosmetically different   from other repeatable firearms - including ones with much more destructive force - just that idiots who didn't know anything about them would ban certain weapons by how they looked. 

F'ing Libtards.

Well, crap, Weisshaupt; that was the criteria used for the AWB, how scary they looooooked.

Exactly. I remember all the AK-pattern rifles sold during the 90s with the stupid thumb hole stock (referred to on the gun forums as the butt hole stocks). A pistol grip instantly turned them into sentient killing machines, you see.  And heaven forbid if it had a muzzle brake on it!

Maybe it's another ATF program to get guns into the hands of criminals. "Operation Dark Knight Rises".

Of course, I can't be sure of this connection yet, but I'm looking into it, and I'll confirm as soon as I know whether Eric Holder provided James Holmes with weapons and ammunition to carry out his grizzly murders.

Leftist nut jobs. I'm so tired of thier drivel. Only a leftist can believe taking our guns creates safety but legalizing drugs will take them off the streets.

I'm not always engulfed in scandals, but when I am, I make sure I blame others.

Yup, I can't say I would be surprised if the Regime was involved, and that speaks volumes in itself.

That can't be true.  The TV said, over and over, that there
was nothing in his past to indicate he had a problem.
