Gun fanatics should stop using tragedies to promote ideology that 'more guns equals less violence'

Sissies are a funny bunch...they believe in guns but are too much afraid to use one themselves.

To be a sissy one must believe that a dead and raped woman is morally superior to a woman with a gun and a dead rapist at her feet.

To be a sissy one must believe their dead spouse is better than them having killed the bad guy with a gun.

To a sissy a person is a “gun nut” if they own a gun but is a superman capable for amazing feats of heroism if they put on a badge.

To a sissy we must bans guns because of all the violence but if a person a wants a gun to defend themselves from that violence they are just a “nut“ and paranoid.

To rid ourselves of the violence of guns they want to ban guns and anyone not volunteering their guns must be shot down with the gun of a badged hero...just not them.

Sissies scream and holler about fascism but they want social programs and gun bans enforced by the lethal force of government guns. Go figure.

Where is the MEGA-BARF alert ??

This guy is an idiot !!!

"Yes, students have right to protect themselves," he said. "Do I think they should carry handguns? No."

So, to paraphrase Zell Miller, "What're they gonna use, spitballs?"

Jeez, what a moron. And these are the folks running academia these days.

Thanks for the pic!

As for guns on campus, it's unsafe and unnecessary. Just because Second Amendment nuts want a Glock tucked in their pants 24/7 to overcome some mental insecurity, doesn't mean I should have to feel uncomfortable knowing a shot could accidentally go off while the teacher is lecturing.

I find it interesting that these pantie boys think anyone that wants to exercise their 2nd amendment rights is some how mentally or emotionally deficient however anyone that is so gun phobic they scream at the thought of anyone caring a concealed firearm is stable, mature, and intellectually superior.

[Tallguy]

This guy & the people who agree with him are sheep.

Where is the MEGA-BARF alert ??

Before that there was: Where is the "super MEGA-BARF alert"? I answered already. Read the thread. The title is too long even for a "barf alert."

"Yes, students have right to protect themselves," he said. "Do I think they should carry handguns? No."

Giving the bad guy what he wants ought to do it, right?

Hello?

No, I don't think anyone will ever reach Mr. Murphy.

His illiterate screed indicates that he will forever be locked into the typical leftist's spittle-spewing, facts don't count, I know this to be true, covering my ears and singling la-la-la - I can't hear you, mode.

Little Mikey will be one of the first to cry out “I wish I had a gun”, when the Islamic crazies start shooting his friends and relatives.

And of course, he will also be the first to try to hide behind those brave Americans who will be willing to fight back using the guns that metrosexuals like Mikey are trying to take away from them.

Mikey is a sick, sick, sadsack.

...and those who insist on bringing their Mossberg 590 shotgun to heaven once the rapture comes.

Nonsense. I won't be taking my own weapons to Heaven.

I'll gratefully accept whatever they issue me.

Sometimes they are your grandmothers, too.

[JOAT]

I don't own a Mossberg 590 shotgun. Will I get a free one under Hillary/Obama share the wealth socialism?

It won't be 'free' but if you 'benefit' from the Bush 'stimulus' package you can buy one with debt levied on your grandchildren.

I will be investing my check of increasingly worthless FRN's into something that will hold value: firearms and ammo.($800 rifle and 1000 rds of ammo)

Understanding some of the guys around here and the Ann Coulter rule, I thought I’d better post one.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Having to watch your manners and hope your gun is bigger than everyone else's is not an appealing way to go through life.

Getting it exactly backwards. The whole point is that since only the Low IQ Contingent is going to initiate a gun crime anyway, the concept that any potential victim might be carrying anything penetrates through even their pea brains and they won't initiate one. Guarantee them a disarmed public, and they are dumb enough to think they might be able to get away with something.

[goldstategop]

Yep. Many liberals don't know an honest gun owner. That's the problem.

Fools like this are the main reason why you should tuck that Walther in your belt and just shut the hell up.

Quietly exercise your concealed carry license, day after day, week after week, and just don’t tell a soul that you’ve got the goods. God forbid if the need should arise, but it might. Then, and only then, do you let people know there was a sheepdog in their midst all along.

Try not to let your jaws drop, but I’ve been doing this in the People’s Republic of Massachusetts for many years now. Quietly.
