Right on, bro! Good post. Couple years ago, you’d have been banned for not praying for the LB. I think we’re starting to recognize the enemy around here.

Just watched her “interview” on Yahoo. Her husband talked a lot, and once in a while she would whisper “Strength” or “Peace”.

I’m sorry about what happened to her, even is she was a LB. But once she starts trying to take away my right to self defense, she is open game. And her lying and slavish devotion to the Democrat party needs to be discussed. She is once again acting as a Nancy Pelosi sock puppet - which is what she was BEFORE she was shot.

The new gun grabber version of "Pimp My Brain Damaged Spouse".

Disgusting.

So....

The anti-gun folk get to parade around with another damaged survivor of criminal violence.

Are people really that ignorant of their American heritage?
Are people really that ignorant of their rights (do they even know what rights are)?
Are people really that ignorant of their individual responsibility to exercise volition and defend themselves?

The answer is YES, THE LOW INFORMATION, DOLE RECEIVING, MORONS REALLY ARE THAT IGNORANT!

I’m with you. I don’t know who is behind this, but it’s not Gabby Giffords (any more than Jim Brady is behind that other bunch from his wheelchair)

Its sucks what happened to her, but quite frankly, Im sick of hearing about this woman and her efforts toward a liberal agenda.

Sucks what happened to James Brady, too ... what happened after he got really sucked. The foul fascistic freaks (not least, his miserable bitch of a wife) spent years dragging the poor bastard around as the poster boy to destroy America.

He's yesterday's news; now they're trotting out the oh-so-much-more photogenic "Gabby" (what a wonderfully cute and catchy name) Giffords for the same evil purpose. A pox on them.

I guess James Brady must be getting too old, Giffords is going to take his place as the “victim on parade” that is rolled out by the gun grabbers at all their press events.

hopefully they at least change out the drool bucket...

yeah they were *victims* of violent, evil nutbags, but they dont get to use their individual circumstances to violate their Oaths...

In the spirit of Dr. Philip O'Hanlon and his daughter Virginia ....

"Yes, Gabby, gun control would have prevented your being shot". /s

Whenever I’ve seen “news” of her, she is always far away surrounded by people, never seems to be shown actually moving around.

A female John Gill to someone’s Malakan.

I am so tired of these liberals crying about taking our guns. They are only paving the road to hell while Satan laughs.

So, let's try thinking outside the box for a moment. The judge was attracted to the site where the gunman easily assassinated him. He was a bit nuttier than his handlers thought and he went wild shooting at everybody else.

How involved was Giffords in the planning or was this arranged by one of her staffers?

The only reason Giffords is alive is that Federal Judge Roll (a conservative) blocked a deadly bullet from hitting her. He was killed doing that. He got half a sentence coverage from the media. “Judge Roll, one of the victims in the Gabby Giffords shooting was buried today, while Gabby Giffords continues to improve..... Gabby gabby gabby...”. I think the little girl got a couple sentences, but it was all Gabby.

They make it sound like there aren’t already dozens of little Commie anti-gun groups out there to “counter the gun lobby”.

And to think he was smart and lucky enough to get to command space shuttle missions...

I guess it can’t be that hard then...

They are both hypocrites, theyh both own and possess, carry firearms for “their” self-defense...They have said as much...

Bottom line...There is no further need for debate or “common sense” discussion about this issue of gun, and gun type ownership...It is clearly defines and opined upon by the SCOTUS that it IS an INDIVIDUAL RIGHT now...And always has been...

These people and those like them will not be the ones trying to enforce their idea of gun-control on us...

When and if that happens, there will not be a lot of happy people in this country...

They are hedging their bets that we will not fight and resist this effort...

It will be a tremendous underestimation upon themselves...

I think we need to somehow post adult, mature, constructive comments on this website (if it totally loads up for you) and explain that they WILL NOT succeed in taking away any type of gun away from us, discpite their “reasonable” tone and demeanor...

Obviously something else is driving this effort now, so that needs to be defeated at all costs...

Just my opinion...

Hey, let me get back to you on that after this episode of "Honey Boo Boo" is over. /sarc
