Unbelievably outrageous, but brutally honest from the gun-grabbing Left.

Using the death of my neighbors' children as an excuse to disarm me.

COME AND TAKE THEM!!

Yeah, they’re not even trying to pretend anymore, are they?

It is a refreshing change from that nauseating nonsense “all we want are a few reasonable gun laws”. Nobody with any sense believed that.

Insanity run amok. Using the “blood” of the inocents.

Not nearly as horrific as the dozens of school children Obama slaughtered with unmanned drones in Afganistan.

He’s standing on the graves of the Sandy Hook children for political purposes, but don’t you dare say that he’s standing on the graves of the Sandy Hook children for political purposes.

Collectivists love dead bodies, any way they can get them.

Executions, purges, reprisals, abortions, gangs, drug wars, pandemics, anarchy, revolutions, pogroms, natural disasters, mass shootings, all advance their cause.

>>“The good thing about Newtown is, it was so horrific <<

There are no words for how horrific that statement is. Children died. Brave teachers died. The mourning will be entire lifetimes.

I can’t even suggest what Rendell should do. To take such an event and make it “a good bad example” delights Satan. Who will eventually take His due.

“The good thing about Newtown is, it was so horrific that I think it galvanized Americans to a point where the intensity on our side is going to match the intensity on their side,”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

HOLY CARP! Tell me this is from The Onion. No one could be that stupid, right?

I’m wondering if this idiot is sad that there are no pictures of little dead 6 year olds? Wouldn’t that bolster his talking points?

“Oh, if only we could see pictures of dead children and bloody school desks! Wouldn’t that just be a cinch for gun confiscation?”

These people are bleeped up in the head sick.

This is orders of magnitude worse than anything Akin or Mourdock said. But the Rats protect their own.

I think I can relate to the rage I would feel toward this asshat if one of those deceased children were mine.

In other words -
"Isn't it terrific all those kids got killed? It was like a gift from heaven. We've never had a better crises to exploit!
High five everyone. Open that champagne. Let's party! Wooo hoooo!"
