Where's the frig'n BARF ALERT?

[Joe Brower]

A-yep, we don't bend over backwards to kiss the useful idiot's arses whenever they snap their fingers, so *bingo!*, we're all Nazis.

Uh-huh.

[vandykelastone]

Will every has-been mighty hunter go somehwere and slit his throat? Could you all do us this favor?

[HairOfTheDog]

Yuck! This guy overdosed me on venom within his second paragraph. Republican nitwits? Jackboot licking? The oily Dick Cheney?

Bleah.

Musket by his bed my ass.

[stevio]

A loaded musket next to his bed? This guy is really living in the past.

[Numbers Guy]

He was probably thinking about the life of his son, whose murder was a direct result of someone having unfettered access to a Tech 9 semi-automatic pistol

Yeah, if only those psychos hadn't had access to a Tech 9, then they would have been deterred from ever doing anything bad to anyone. [/sarcasm]

[azcap]

That first paragraph is classic talk-radio seminar caller. Introduce yourself as a rock solid conservative before you proceeed to spew liberal talking points.

[Monty22]

Bizarre split between the 1st paragraph (obligatory "I like guns") thing and the childish namecalling that follows.

[Monty22]

"So when it comes to "regulating" the sort of military-style weapons that are currently banned in this country - stemming from a mass murder at a schoolyard in, of all places, Texas "

Oh, can anyone please tell me what he's talking about here?

[muawiyah]

There are such people around ~ they prize THEIR OWN right to keep and bear arms but they don't want anybody else to be armed.

Several members of the Senate are in this category.

[antiRepublicrat]

The NRA, naturally, was principled enough to hold one of their little conventions in Denver just a few dozen hours after all the blood had been mopped up.

Stating one little truth, while not stating the rest of the important facts surrounding that truth, is the same thing as a lie in my book.

[Puppage]

...and the childish namecalling that follows

Yeah, that hit me like a ton of bricks, too.

[VRWCmember]

So when it comes to "regulating" the sort of military-style weapons that are currently banned in this country - stemming from a mass murder at a schoolyard in, of all places, Texas - Kerry might know a thing or two about how they work.

This idiot doesn't know what he's talking about. The banning of "military-style" weapons didn't stem from any schoolyard mass murder in Texas. He may be thinking about the one at a daycare center in California.

As for the author's ludicrous assertion that Kerry's extensive 4-month military adventure in Viet Nam provided him with more firearm knowledge than Cheney and Bush, there is NO QUESTION who is better to defend our second amendment rights or who I would rather have covering my back in a firefight.

[dighton]

This twit has a website.

[VRWCmember]

Yet it is the Republican Party today which most resembles the Redcoats of yore, what with the Patriot Act forcibly violating our Fourth Amendment rights every day at airport terminals all across the United States, and with the imprisonment of Jose Padilla lighting fuses under the Fifth and Sixth Amendments.

What an idiot. The Patriot Act isn't violating anybody's fourth amendment rights; and it would probably be a good idea to pick someone other than a traitor who conspired to smuggle a dirty nuke into the country as his poster-child for innocent victim of GOP human-rights abuses.

[BurbankKarl]

I think carry voted for a bill to ban all centerfire rifle cartridges.....so you would have .22LR left for hunting!

[VRWCmember]

He ought to subtitle it "The Craino-Rectal-Inverted Ravings of Paul Heller.

[BurbankKarl]

I read the Columbine report. They purposefully omitted the anti-depressant drugs both these kids were told to take, citing patient confidentiality.

[proudpapa]

I'm sick of hearing how Tom Mauser wasn't allowed into the NRA's convention. Is he a member of the NRA? Did he pay to be there? (Assuming it wasn't a free event)

I can't imagine the pain of losing a child.

But what does Mauser's loss have to do with our collective ability to defend ourselves?
