I went to check on the 2nd amendment after Caleb’s “rethink”...nothings changed, it’s still the same.
Agree there’s a time and place for everything. Now is not the time or place to have the gun control debate. But various liberal politicians and Hollywood idiots are starting that debate today.
Real shallow thinker, shut up and play your guitar.
>> “I cannot express how wrong I was. We actually have members of our crew with CHL licenses, and legal firearms on the bus. They were useless. We couldn’t touch them for fear police might think we were part of the massacre and shoot us...”
They won’t always protect you, and the lack of value was not from a threat of friendly fire from police, the shooter was hundreds of yards away from an elevated point. Pew pew wouldn’t have taken him out from down on the ground.
>>We need gun control RIGHT. NOW,” he wrote. “My biggest regret is that I stubbornly didn’t realize it until my brothers on the road and myself were threatened by it.”
Would he propose confiscation? Because this shooter had been acquiring weapons for awhile, it wasn’t one bulk purchase.
He passed the background checks.
Prohibit even more weapons (with no grandfather status)?
Ban bullets?
I don’t know who “The Josh Abbott Band” is, and
I don’t know who “Caleb Keeter” is, but
one thing I do know is that I don’t care what he thinks.
>>nothings changed, it’s still the same.
Yep - 2nd is still protecting 1st - even for idiot guitar players.
Can’t find any stance from him on Bernie, Hillary, or Trump.
Odd that he is now afraid of the guns carried by his crew.
So?
And this is the kind of clear thinking he put into his decision???
He’s going to feel a cold shoulder from the crew over his tweet storm.
"Start a conversation" is lefty speak for "lecture you about why you're wrong".
Awful lot about this one we’ll probably never understand.
Why did the shooter get 72 minutes of range fire before a police response?
I need to see the police AAR from the event. Serious.
Best picture of the night? The guy drinking a beer and flipping off the shooter. He understands probability theory, which sure calmed my mind (sans beer) the first time I jumped out of an airplane (42000 people jump out of a C130 every year at Ft Benning....6 burn in, what are the odds...).
Condolences to the families of the deceased. Hard to take the empty seat at the Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner table, but, I’m sorry, veteran’s families do it every single year. Freedom is not free.
I'm much more afraid of my government that I am of isolated madmen. (And so was Alexander Hamilton - see Federalist #28.)
ML/NJ
This is what I don't understand. I can see a few people getting killed if he shot willy-nilly into a big crowd, and with the music going I can see that it would take some time to even realize there was a shooter. But I don't see how 500 people were shot. Didn't they take cover? Seriously, what am I missing here?
I’m sorry why do we care what some unknown guitarist thinks about the second amendmen? Could this “story” be more irrelevant?
Oh, brother!
The nation has been waiting breathlessly for his pronouncement ALL DAY!
Thanks for posting this. But it should be in Breaking News, of course...
