“And the higher the death rate, the bigger his victory.”

I’d like to see that graphed.

I think we should conduct a little experiment in Chicago. As it is indisputable that over 80% of the murders in Chicago in 2012 were committed by Blacks and Hispanics I suggest we forceably enter each building occupied by either a Black or Hispanic and confiscate any firearms found therein. Further, Blacks and Hispanics will be be prohibited from owning or possessing any firearm under penalty of a minimum of 25 years in prison.

Let’s see if these sensible measures have any affect on the murder rate in Chicago.

So most of it is what in a different age was called misdemeanor murder: “one worthless waste of human skin causing another waste of human skin to assume room temperature.” In the forties, fifties and early sixties this generally caused the responding officers to engage in a perfunctory investigation and speedily return to routine patrol.

I'm sure if you also contrast...
“And the higher the WELFARE rate, the bigger his victory.”
And the higher the ILLEGITIIMACY rate, the bigger his victory.”
And the higher the HIGH SCHOOL DROP-OUT rate, the bigger his victory.”
And the higher the ABORTION rate, the bigger his victory.”

You'll see parallel numbers.

This country does not need to have a conversation about how many bullets should go in a clip. It does need to have a conversation about how many parents should go in a family.
An excellent summation.

D. Greenfield wrote an outstanding piece about the stupidity of the Republican’s titled “You cannot be more Liberal than a Liberal”....http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2013/01/you-cannot-be-more-liberal-than-liberal.html

I think I have it figured out.

Just like the term “Peace” does not mean the same thing to Communists (”absence of resistance to socialism”) or Moslems (”submission to Islam and Sharia”), the term “Gun Violence” does not mean the same thing to Progressives that it does us.

To a conservative, “gun violence” means the criminal of firearms against innocent victims. To a Progressive, “gun violence” means the use of firearms against THEM. That also explains the recent warning against violence by the “extreme right” that was issued by think tank associated with West Point.

So, one wonders what Progressives might be planning to do that might incite “gun violence” against them or by the “extreme right.”

Generally, if someone wants take your firearms away, they are planning to do something to you that you would those weapons to resist...

“Gutless sheep”?

Phenominal.

If the NRA doesn’t run an ad based on that they’re idiots.
