REUTERS/Fred Prouser Nouriel Roubini. "American madness: a teenager is allowed to receive a rifle as a birthday gift," NYU professor Nouriel Roubini tweeted. "Sick sick country."
Roubini's words came hours after a gunman killed one person and injured several others at Marysville-Pilchuck High School near Seattle, Washington.

My 13 y.o. daughter has her own AR-15.
Teenager? Out here in the west, responsible kids get a rifle on their TENTH birthday.
“Roubini, however, argued that the focus should rather be about how easily accessible firearms are to people who may be mentally unstable.”
And so, “Mr. Wizard” Roubini, just how do you propose to tackle that problem? For this asshat, the operative word is “may.” Now here in CA, your pissed off ex spouse can just tell the local LEOs that he or she thinks you are nuts, and they will round up your firearms and make you prove you are sane to get them back.
You are a good parent showing your daughter how to use a gun and also how to defend herself should she ever need to.
Not doing so is tantamount to child abuse IMO.
Oh wow does he ever get out of his rubber room?
There are people who hunt, and people who fight, and people who guard.
Now maybe such an item would be a hang-up to HIM. But it’s probably in how he was raised.
These diversity loving folks really ought to get out sometime and look at it, up close.
If you are not buying Pmag’s or AR’s right now, you should be. There will be another attempt at a gun grab at some point.
Buy em cheap and stack em deep.
Guns could be the the root of the problem, for a person who has a predefined political solution in mind.
An intelligent person who can look a little deeper may find that mentally defective people given drugs never really learn to cope with their limitations and when the drugs wear off are crazier than ever.
“Teenager? Out here in the west, responsible kids get a rifle on their TENTH birthday.”
In “The California of the Past,” I also received a bolt-action Winchester .22 when I was in the 6th grade. My children, and now their children have/are using that same gun to learn to shoot (although none of the grandkids can dare to speak of their out-of-school activities for fear of their teacher’s retribution). But all of them are smart enough to understand what’s going on at school today, and the have become circumspect at an early age.
Whadda ya’ think this is?
A free country?
In the New Peoples Republic Of Obama, common people should not be permitted to engage in any activity not fully approved by liberal elites.

If he didn’t have a head filled with garbage and a heart filled with only self love, he wouldn’t have put a gun in his hand.
Modern cultural nihilists are more responsible for these deaths than the NRA.
But he's right for the wrong reasons.
A Muslim is allowed to chop someone’s head off at work..a Muslim is allowed to use a HATCHET to attack four cops..a Muslim is allowed to shoot a Soldier in Canada..hey libs, why no outrage..Oh silly me..almost forgot, when your a Muslim its NEVER your fault, always someone else’s
Liberal madness: For their thirteenth birthday, they can have a sex change operation or an abortion!
But hey, guns are bad, m’kay? Unless it is liberals holding them, then they’re perfectly ok, just ask Barbara Boxer.
The children of Eric Holder's people are never given guns as birthday gifts, but they seem to acquire them anyway, and they are almost certain to misuse them.
If they want to stop all of this violence among children, just do not let liberals have children. Problem solved.
American madness: An idiot like Nouriel Roubini can become an NYU professor.
And... we get more nihilism the more that the Lord is shunned and obscured.
