Last Friday night I was at my favorite cigar bar watching the news of the Umpqua Community College massacre. Like you, my buddies and I were pissed off, sad and sick to our stomachs. Three things, in particular, were ticking us off regarding this senseless slaughter.

They were ...

I like how they combine drugs and guns as if the two are related, as if everyone who carries a gun must also carry drugs as well. Freakin libs, they’re always the biggest hypocrites. Who is most responsible for drug dealers with guns? They are with their engineered socialist holocaust that’s been nothing but an assembly line on high speed for creating ghetto thugs and gangstas.

--in the years since the Muslim woman-hater in Canada took the time to separate out the "men" from the women in that college shooting some years ago (then he shot the women), it has disgusted me that so few of the victims even attempt to resist.

While one never knows what one would do in such circumstance, I would hope that if I was facing death , I would at least die advancing toward the perp, maybe giving someone else a chance at grabbing him , throwing a chair or whatever---

It's always interesting to read how other countries condemn shootings in the US. The US is made up of 50 individual states that are countries in themselves. Example: Alabama is the size of Greece. Last year in the UK 146 people died from gun related deaths. The UK is the size of Oregon, Washington and a bit of Idaho but yet the world sees the US as a whole when comparing gun related deaths. You break down the stats into individual states and compare them to European countries and our stats are much lower. You can fit a little over three Europe's into the US with a bit left over; three million square miles vs a bit over 9 million square miles for the US.

That idiot Piers Morgan keeps bashing the US over our gun deaths when he doesn't have a clue of what size the US is compared to other countries.

Another total victory for Obama. He gets to use the incident to promote his leftist, gun control agenda, regardless of the facts. The murder of Christians for their faith is virtually ignored by the press. And the weakling establishment Republicans hardly make a sound.

The Umpqua Utopia wasn’t quite so, huh.

We need both arms and courage.

At the least it should be compared per capita, and include other kinds of murder and mayhem. It generally turns out that where guns are genuinely scarce due to a concerted enough effort to eliminate them, which is a pipe dream in the USA, stabbings enter the picture to make up for it. Cain will strive to murder Abel one way if not another. Might as well at least let Abel be armed and have a fighting chance.

Dear Mr. Obama:

Please explain one law that would have prevented this shooting.

No, even outlawing ownership of any weapon by any American wouldn’t have prevented it either.

So your point is.......??????

Even though the perp left a multi-page note, Jake Tapper on CNN just said that the perp’s motives are still unclear.

Tapper does not let that stand in the way of another day of CNN gun-control rants.

Guest commentator admits that some level of mental illness is involved. So, we must close loop-holes, yada yada yada.

Tapper does ask him ‘what new gun law would have prevented this?’

Commentator spews jabberwocky — more background checks, yada yada yada.

Tapper asks about the ineffectiveness of ‘gun free zone’ signs.

Idiot commentator responds that there is no proof shooters intentionally went into gun-free zones.

If the Media ever did start connecting dots, they would be astonished and shocked at what it obvious to most of us. Instead, they are on their narrative, regardless of any facts.

It isn’t even about having armed security in every classroom.

It is the idea that deranged people would no longer look at a campus as a risk free shooting range.

Collateral damage. UNPROTECTED government sponsored “gun free” slaughter zones are an integral part of the agenda.

Be prepared for more agenda. Who’s in your zone, collateral damage?

Obama is not the problem. The electorate is the problem. Any victory he gets from this is due to the utter ignorance and downright stupidity of the Americans that agree with him. How far would he have gotten in 1950, 1970, 1980 or even 2000?

The slide to the bottom is very swift. Hence my tag line. I do not see it as hyperbole.

Right - it’s the media who compare the US to other countries in gun deaths. I don’t think you can really use per capita because it favors those smaller countries.
