Governor Terry McAuliffe needs to set an example by giving up his 24x7 armed body guards.

“There are too many guns in the hands of people who should not have guns.”

What a punk.

Rush Limbaugh didn’t give him the nickname “The Punk” for no good reason.

What a great idea!

We could totally eliminate gun crime just as we have eliminated crimes related to drugs.

Yes sir, we have no drugs and no drung related crimes since we spent billions on eliminating drugs.

And lost a great many of our constitutional freedoms.

But it was worth it. No more drug crimes.

What a jackass.

McAuliffe: “This is why I’ve long advocated for background checks,” he continued. “I’m a gun owner, I’m a hunter, but you know what? I went through background checks myself in order to get it.

*******************************************

We have background checks in Virginia. Already. I’m betting the shooter went through one to get his gun, too. So what’s really your point, Terry? (I think we can all ‘guess’ what you’re up to).

Any more of those Hannible Lecter masks laying around...

I think McCauliff could benefit from a two or three year stint in one. I know we would, if he wore one.

McAuliffe said. “There are too many guns in the hands of people who should not have guns.” …

Like black men? What a racist thing to say McAuliffe.

We have so much gun control that the whole thing is stumbling over its own feet. What we need is less control and more real reason for staying alive. Such as economy that is sustainable. Morals that have degenerated into anti-Christian that killing is just fun and games. You could go on and on but we have got so damn deep into the dark world of Hollywood movies, and communists liberals that we will never survive.

His manifesto said he “put a deposit down” on a gun, so most likely purchased from a licensed dealer. That, of course, means he passed a NICS check.

“There are too many guns in the hands of people who should not have guns.”

Has anyone said this guy had any mental diagnosis or should have failed any background checks? So, you could have to stopped this particular tragedy by abrogating the constitutional rights of which group of “people who should not have guns” exactly?

Gay people?
Black people? (has historically been VERY popular with Democrats)
Reporters? (OK that has a certain logic)
Oh, yeah, probably me.

King George III tried. That’s what the Paul Revere’s Ride was all about. The British troops were here to confiscate all our guns........................
