All it proves is that everyone should be armed to the teeth.
What a GD moron. I would imagine he would propose we stop threats with positive waves?
Semi indeed.
It would have taken 4 cops to stop me from going into that school.
Who ever said Peterson was one of the “good guys”? He’s one of Weazel “I’m With Her” Israel’s boys. I’m no conspiracy theorist but I do find it odd that four of his deputies refused to intervene while these murders were being carried out. JMO.
If a guy has a gun and has sworn an oath to use it to protect his fellow citizens and fails to do so, then he is not “good”.
Just responding to the headline - the term good guy refers to people who have courage. It refers to virtue.
A guy who takes a gun and a paycheck promising to use the gun to protect people but doesn’t protect those people when they need the protection, is actually hurting those people. He is on the side of the perpetrator at that point, and is then a bad guy
Add to that that he has deprived the clients of good guy with a gu, in that a good guy with a gun should be the one collecting the paycheck protecting the clients, he is twice bad
Sen. Richard Blumenthal - He’s a vicious snake. Even looks like one.
Contrast the County Deputies’ (in)action with Stephen Willeford’s actions during the Sutherland Springs church shooting. Mr. Willeford was not a sworn peace officer, nor did he have any duty to get involved, yet he armed himself and did what he could. By all accounts he prevented more deaths. Truly a good guy with a gun. Too bad the BSO doesn’t have the same ethos.
Terminal ignorance.
To be a good guy it takes more than means. It takes
enough courage to act, as well.
Since anything associated with the NRA has just become a thoughtcrime, I think this quote from Orwell’s 1984 is apropos:
“By curtailing frivolous and “fighting” words, the Party seeks to narrow the range of thought altogether, such that eventually, thoughtcrime will be literally impossible.”
The CNN town meeting had everything but the 2 minute hate session, but it came close.
All the more reason to arm selected staff who won’t cower in a stairwell like that cowardly lowlife scumbag Scot Peterson did.
You can’t disprove a “good guy with a gun” theory with a “coward guy with a gun” example.
Blumenthal swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution when he took office.
The Second Amendment is part of the Constitution he swore to support. That puts him in violation of his oath.
How soon before Connecticut voters can dump this turd?
I don’t think “cowardice” is in any part of the definition of “good guy”.
It proves that if you believe the way to stop mass shootings is to impose gun control instead of hardening the target through properly trained and motivated law enforcement, people die.......
