And what, exactly, does a gun and knife show have to do with the CT killings?

there’s nothing in the Constitution that says that people should purchase guns in a taxpayer-funded building

WTF is with these idiots?

Will they be canceling the car show after that big pileup on the interstate?

the county announced it would not be renewing the show’s contract.

It will hurt the county more than the NRA.

Guns and knives are scary, they are evil and will possess the soul of good, honest, sane people and turn them into raving psychotic killers! And they can do this by simply being seen, so we must insure that no one has to risk being possessed so we will make it impossible for the public to see them!

Gee, don’t they charge rent to use the Facility, therefore filling the County’s Treasury?

Perhaps they should lease the Building to Planned Parenthood or CAIR.

Gun and knife shows are one of the *few* things that will rent municipal show spaces. Most of the other things that might rent such spaces go for private facilities instead.

Idiots! Somewhere else will reap the reward then. You have failed your citizens.

Amen! Out of sight out of mind, therefore the only deaths will be attributed to martial causes.

Government, as usual, cutting off its nose to spite its face. The county voters had better take action.

Police said Lanza was dressed in black tactical assault-style clothing and may have been wearing a bulletproof vest.

So what? He was probably wearing a watch an carrying a wallet. For all I know, he may have has a ring in his ear and a tattoo.

The facts of Lanza's mental condition is what is relevant and sadly we will never know.

Gordon Liddy said it best on closing the “gun show loophole.” He said “I’m a convicted felon. If I want a gun I’m not going to a gun show or store to get one. I’ll go to Rocco who I met in the joint and buy one out of his car trunk.”

Cliose all the lumber yards, a lot of people have been killed after being hit in the head with a 2x4!!

When I was in high school 60 years ago the gangs were killing each other with chains, knifes, and 2x4s so they better outlaw chains also!

“WTF is with these idiots?”

Liberals are brain-dead idiots, morons and imbeciles. You don’t have to ask how and why they are.

You are right...they pretty much define themselves by their words and actions!
