Or, as someone else put it, “gun control” is not about guns, it’s about control.
So who all did Obama talk to to get this theme going?
This has democrat written all over it.
i think they’d be welcome in chicago, detroit, baltimore, nyc, la, oakland.
not so much in the midwest and the south.
***If this perennial slaughter doesn’t qualify for intercession by the UN and all relevant NGOs, it is hard to know what does.***
Henry, you are woefully misguided here.
But since you’re interested in lending a helping hand, my suggestion is to contact people like Rahm, Jessie, Al, most of Hollywood, all of the American msm, and the Chief Community Organizer himself and have them put a stop to the gangbangers in our cities.
“Or, as someone else put it, “gun control” is not about guns, it’s about control.”
There’s an element of truth to that. In any case, it’s *not* about public safety.
Hey UN you want my gun(s)? Look me up I live in Allen Texas 75013
Mr. Porter is speaking from the point of the same tyranical country that our founding fathers fought to separate from. Of course he is going to think that HIS country was responsible for a Right at the same time when HIS country was eliminating rights. He is speaking from the highest branch in the Tree of Ignorance. More on this later.
"...We dispensed with these rights long ago"
snort. He actually wrote this...and meant it as a positive thing.
Mr. Porter fails to recognize that the American system of government has been established such that the government serves the people, not the people serving the government. The founding fathers recognized that the most benign government WILL become tyranical, if given the chance, and if the government is the master over the people then it has that chance.
The right to bear arms is the ultimate expression of freedom. It is a demonstration that the people are in charge.
Mr. Porter's presentation of trumped-up statistics about murder rates is irrelevant. Perhaps the more relevant question might be: How's that government-mandated health care program working for you, Mr. Porter?
LOL. if it wasn’t for American Guns, Große Britton gäbe heute es nicht. Nicht war?
Let’s make a deal with the Brits, we’ll keep the Churchill bust, and you can have our lame Muzzie POS prez. The Brits can give him another peace prize or bring him up on war crimes, whatever.
Ah, but, we’ll keep our guns. There’ll be a rifle behind every blade of grass if you want to try anything stupid.
Yes sir, I agree with you. I am at least a quarter English myself, and I have many British cousins. Many British are not infavor of the gun control imposed on them by the tyrrants there.
Curious how “the world” is going to “intervene” to take our guns away.
Wouldn’t that require that “the world” come over here, with guns to force us to give up ours?
Illegal immigration has increased the strength of gangs by not rounding up and shipping back to country of origin, plus making a pact with the countries to put the perps in prison. That done, crime would be down to livable levels.
Get real, journalists and Brits. How's the no firearms rule working out in GB? Seems to me honest citizens are getting assaulted, robbed, raped, etc. with no recourse.
So, get the log out of your own eye before searching for the mote in ours.

Hold fire until you see the blue of their helmets!
How many of the 32,000 are suicides?
Last I looked “death by hands or feet” was far more than GSW.
“reducing the slaughter over the next generation.”
Outside of a few liberal cities, we have one of the lowest murders rates worldwide. Fifth from the bottom I believe.
