Hey Anti-gunner: Do you have any remorse over supporting gun-free zones?
Small Government Times ^ | 2013-09-21 | Steve Adcock

Inquiring minds want to know – to those who support gun free zones throughout the country, do you feel any remorse at all when so many high profile gun tragedies occur in, wait for it…gun free zones?

The entire city of Chicago is a gun free zone. Yet, the city sees some of the highest crime in the nation, including a particularly hideous crime this week that took the lives of 3 people and wounded 23 others, including a 3-year old boy.

Or what about Columbine? Sandy Hook? Virginia Tech? All gun free zones. But let’s not forget the Aurora Colorado shooting. Does it make you feel any remorse at all knowing the theater that the gunman chose was the only gun-free theater within 20 miles of his home?

And now Starbuck’s has “requested” customers not bring concealed weapons to their place of business. Expect more attempted armed robberies at these locations, and/or mass gun slaughters.

Unwarranted hysteria at the very sight of a hand-held weapon is exactly the wrong response to the visual stimulus, and only contributes to the feeling of exuberance and power the gunman wants to exert. In his head, this is some kind of “fun”.

Obedience to the good manners of society includes taking immediate steps to suppress the exhibition of very bad behavior, the more quickly the better. In an analogy, it is rather like taking a fire extinguisher to a small grease fire on the stove, as contrasted with calling the fire department after a great deal of property damage has been done and possible loss of life has occurred.

If you do not have the effective fire extinguishers immediately available, the small fire cannot be contained.

Nope. They are incapable of even understanding that they facilitate mass murder. It is called cognitive dissonance.

And they are also just plain scum.

you gotta be kidding. Far from remorse they feel joy and elation. The only time remorse enters into it is if the shooting don’t advance their agenda.

If I weren’t already boycotting them for giving money to baby killers, I would make a point of open-carrying in their stores.

“It is called cognitive dissonance.”

Cognitive dissonance is the discomfort experienced when simultaneously holding two or more conflicting cognitions: ideas, beliefs, values or emotional reactions. (Wiki)

What they suffer from is willful ignorance, facilitated by denial.

“And they are also just plain scum.”

Yeah, that too.

Starbucks, as a privately owned company, has the right to run its business as it sees fit. I have the right to purchase my coffee elsewhere. Not a problem for me because anyone who frquents Starbucks after this announcement knows the risk. No complaints, no whining, and no sympathy from me to the future victims.

I thought Starbucks asked that people not open carry in the business? I don’t believe they banned concealed carry.

Am I wrong?

Gun Free Zones are Free Killing Zones and they should be called that.People should not believe they’re safe in an area that is said to be Gun Free.

We have to convince them that they’re being told a lie by the politicians who want only one thing a defenceless and subservient to them.

Chicago provides evidence of the truth of the old saying YOU OUTLAW GUNS ONLY OUTLAWS WILL HAVE GUNS. An also answers why GUN CONTROL WILL NEVER WORK.

Some of them will invest in 401k because it is “reasonable” but will applaud government confiscation. Also you have Holyweird wanting gun free zones but it does not prevent them from having body guards or bein beholden by mafyas in vegas or befriending islamic terrorists and world thugs.

They will accuse gun owners of being too scared to fight without a weapon,but they are the cowards who hope to be the favored brides of the thugs.

Question: if a CCW licensee was in a Starbucks and terminated an armed thug, what would the CEO of Starbucks do? would he try to file charges on the CCW licensee? do it and watch Starbucks customer base go in the crapper, dumb ass.

“They will accuse gun owners of being too scared to fight without a weapon”

God made man, but Sam Colt made them equal.

Why should a 92-pound woman have to fight a 250-pound rapist without a weapon?
