His citizenship should be revoked, and then banished to Bogeyland for all time.

Is the Toledo Blade a gay publication?

[Erik Latranyi]

Another liberal who hopes to destroy our nation by pitting citizen against law-enforcement.

This would only lead to the destruction of our justice system and civil war.

I suggest his ‘special squads’ should hit the hoods first in LA then NY, Chicago, Phili and Boston. That would make for some great film at 11 footage and thin the squads out considerably.

But no, they’ll hit the good citizens first and have a new cause to fund when we are all getting killed by the real criminals.

“The author of this tyrannical proposal is Dan Simpson..”

It is amazing how those who want to disarm the populace want to use deadly force by the use of the same arms they abhor. The guy had very good teachers, Hitler and Stalin.

And when his hand picked goon squad goes home at night to their cozy little dwelling in the burbs, they all take dirt naps. Make it a very unpopular “job” to have because it only lasts from a day to a few weeks.

Besides, with some pipe of various sizes, one can make a weapon without too much trouble. There’s a nifty military manual “Improvised Munitions Handbook”, splains it all, including silencers.

Consider that the aggregate rounds/pounds of ammunition possessed by citizens exceeds the ammo in police and SWAT team lockers by many magnitude.

What do our presidential candidates think of his proposal? Their responses would be interesting to say the least.

It would go something like this (bolded words are what they want to say; non-bold is what they would say):

"Well, we have the pesky second amendment that's constantly getting in the way, so Mr. Huston's proposal isn't practical until we can find a way to finally get rid of it.

Special squads

As in Special Squads = SS?

[1000 silverlings]

Yeah well, Simpson, come and get’em

[CDHart]

This article sounds like a joke to me. Is he for real?

[AFreeBird]

And the resulting civil war would be a good thing why, Mr. Simpson?

[andy58-in-nh]

If he makes it past your house, he can come to mine next.

[JamesP81]

Special squads of police would be formed and trained to carry out the work

What do you suppose the casulaty rates among these units would be?

Actually, it wouldn't matter because if these laws were enacted, there'd be a civil war on by the next morning.

“Murder. Death. Kill.” Quick, somebody defrost John Spartan from CryoPrison, but first, re-program him to be a limp-wristed liberal.

[massgopguy]

Isn’t the German term for Special Police, “S”chutz”S”taffen?

[JamesP81]

People like this getting their way will turn otherwise law abiding citizens into copp killers killers of illegitimate tyrants and usurpers.

Gotta use the right terminology.

[JamesP81]

This is what the libs really want ping.
