Your Feelings About Guns
Slowfacts.wordpress ^ | 11/7/2013 | Rob Morse

Some people feel guns are bad and they feel better if they hate gun owners. I beg you to keep things in perspective if you hate guns. Most gun haters claim guns are an accident waiting to happen. I guess so, but walking down the street is an accident waiting to happen also. Let me show it to you. Drunk drivers are a far bigger risk than guns.

Not much most of us don't know but still some pertinent info and graphics. Except for the deniers who don't/won't believe anything we try to school them in. Even if they see it with their own eyes.

Feelings, nothing more than feelings! Feelings are what liberals base opinions on, the rest of use facts.

My view on guns is simple. I don’t like oysters, to me they are nasty tasting bits of protein, but you are welcome to eat your fill. I’m a fan of Velveeta - to many people, this is the equivalent of “cheese blasphemy”; but I can go to the market and buy as much as I want. I don’t make you eat it, you don’t even have to watch me eat it.

Guns? Personally, love them. Wish I could afford a lot more than I have. Do I care if you don’t want them? Nope. Do you have to buy them? Nope. You don’t have to look at mine, either.

Sure would be nice if those gun haters extended the same level of respect to gun-lovers, as they demand in the pursuit of their passions.

Do erections count as a “feeling”?

Gun crimes are caused by the idiots that wield them. There are millions of gun owners that have never shot anyone or comitted a crime with them and have owned them for decades. So why does the MSM focus on and over-sensationalize shootings when almost, if not all, are committed by the liberal, non-conservative types? Ask any gun hater if they have ever used one or trained with one and almost without exception they will tell you no they haven’t. They are merely parroting what the slavemasters in DC have told them to say.

How do I feel about guns? Want to hear a beautiful love story? I was an NCAA student-athlete at the University of Akron. I competed in riflery. One summer my former junior team needed two girls to compete as a team in a high power match at Camp Perry. I graciously volunteered (the other girl was a lefty, ensuring no hot brass down my back while shooting prone) having never shot high power. This goofball dad of a junior I was coaching convinced me to come out to his farm to shoot his AR and see what it was like. Needless to say I didn’t go alone. This goofball had a guy about my age at his farm that evening to “help” him make and stake targets. I went out on a date with that guy a week later. That was 15 years ago. We’ve been married for ten years and have a very active and creative five-year-old son, a honey badger for our two-year-old daughter, and a sweet little nine-week-old baby girl. How do I “feel” about guns? They’re so romantic! Lol!

Guns don;t "scare you".
It's the people that use them, that scare you.

And every stinkin' liberal that's scared of guns ... the first thing they do ... is to call another person (cop) carrying a gun into the situation.
Stupid liberals!
Should've owned and practiced with a gun to start with.

okay, let me think about this.

Nope. it's definitely the guns.

And clowns.

Clowns definitely scare me. Whoever the people that dress up as clowns are, they don't scare me. It's the clown part that gets me.....

You should talk to a psychologist.

I hear ya! I have a S&W 1911 all brushed stainless, black grips... The sight, the textures... It is *almost* too good looking to shoot. But man, does it shoot well too! It is probably a crime what I do with it, but I’m trying to become a better shot...

Not a chance! They all work for the government. And they record everything you say to them!
