I remember once at work during lunch someone was talking bad about guns.. I said “We wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for guns”, thinking I made a pro-American ‘feel good’ statement.. Well, I guess the 4 or 5 Mexican-Americans nearby felt a bit differently about my comment. LOL
Just an FYI - The quote for this Picture is INACCURATE. The man, according to the article is Christopher Geissler, NOT Hochsprung. For some reason, this quote mis-attributed.
This isn't a gun problem. This is a cultural problem - the breakdown of a sane and moral society.
NBC-CT reports that 3 injuried were taken to Danville(?) Hospital. Hospital will have a presser within an hour.
LOL is right!
I remember a Vestry meeting shortly after the concealed carry laws were changed here adding churches to permissible places to carry. Well, the Pastor decided to bring up the subject because the Parish itself can still prohibit. One of the senior members just looked at the Pastor and said “You don’t want to go there.” When she asked why he just said, Trust me, you don’t need to know. Subject has never come up again.

Obviously it was the EVIL GLOCK that did the killing. Meanwhile the one currently in my wifes purse, has not shot anyone yet.

A sure sign we are living in very dark and dangerous times.
I think you can think of a way to respond to her without causing ill feelings. She only knows what the media wants her to know.
@HuffingtonPost: UPDATE: Hartford Courant reports multiple deaths include children #SandyHook http://huff.to/U04eGd
Yes we are, FRiend. But of course all we're going to hear about - especially here in The People's Socialist Republik of Connecticut - is how "all guns have to be taken off the streets".
Wait for it... it's coming, starting from 'ol Dannel P. Malloy and his 'RAT toadies. >:-(
