Alabama, Florida: The uneasy calm in towns on the Alabama-Florida border is deceptive. Barely two days ago on Tuesday, a gunman went on a rampage at four different locations in the area, killing 9 and injuring four. Panic spread quickly among residents of the quiet town.

LOL. You'd think that this fool was describing the India/Pakistan border.

...in America guns continue to sell as freely as grocery.

I wish it were so. But no, Bozo, it's not that easy.

Thats the point...we live in the LAND OF THE FREE...everything sells as freely as groceries! Not to mention that little thing called the US Constitution with a 2nd Amendment on it to ensure guns sell freely!

If one of the residents would have had a gun, they could have taken out the lunatic and saved lives.

I particularly like the self-checkout lines.

“Ironically, while gun control was one of the most hotly debated issues in the US election”

Right. That German kid came to Alabama to buy the guns he shot up his school with.

Yup, it was only a matter of time until the pathetic LibTards and gun control freaks came out of the woodwork on this one.

My heart and my prayers go out to the families of the victims in this tragic incident.

But, especially in the face of this kind of tragedy, I even more strongly support our right to keep and bear arms, as recognized and guaranteed in the Second Amendment of the US Constitution.

They are simply jealous of the 2nd amendment, and do not really understand the concept of freedom and securing it restinng in the hands of the people. Its an alien concept in India.

The Alabama shooting is a case of not eough guns. The shooter could have easily been stopped by any in his family who had one close to hand. Apparentty they did not, so now they are dead.

What is so difficult in understanding that simple logic? The liberals and the author suffer from ideological blindnesss that denies their fellow humans the basic natural right of self defence from the use of deadly force.

What part of “shall not be infringed” does he not understand....instead of control, make a mandatory ccw law and watch these kind of tragedies disappear.

Trigger happy? That’s me! When I see my gun’s trigger I get a tingling up my leg, just like the one Prissy Matthews gets for 0bama.

Yeah, I have to fill out a BATFEG form 4473-G every time I want to buy ice cream, the requirement for which is in contravention of the Constitution and which the agency, in clear defiance of legislation keeps. The same agency also harasses my grocery store (who I like a HELL of a lot better than said agency) over insignificant technical record keeping violations, and is proud of the fact that since the Klinton years, they’ve put half of the grocery chains nationwide out of business. And there are socialists in Congress today, pushing to put a stop to the practice of private intrastate transfers of groceries between individuals. Yup, we treat guns just like groceries. I could only wish.

Just what the false messiah and Holder have been waiting for. Watch the lame stream media go nuts in the next 2-3 weeks ending in a Congressional proposal to somehow limit guns in cities. They don’t give a rip about the Constitution as evidenced by their wanting to just ignore it and grant the District representation, and they certainly don’t care about the 2nd Amendment.

Did I miss something?
