Gun group dangerously out of touch (BARF ALERT)
Milwaukee J-S ^ | 20 jan 2013 | Eugene Kane

Posted on 01/20/2013 6:47:51 AM PST by rellimpank

Let me say this as clearly as I can:

I'm sick and tired of the NRA.

As one of millions of American citizens who don't own a gun or consider gun ownership part of my personal DNA, I'm tired of a powerful national organization for gun advocates that seems tone-deaf in the face of unprecedented concern about the amount of gun violence in our society.

I'm tired of an organization that constantly resists any initiative for more gun control even in the wake of sensational shootings that have become a disturbing part of the American fabric.

I'm tired of tight-faced National Rifle Association officials such as executive vice president Wayne LaPierre making outlandish statements after tragedies such as the elementary school shooting in Newtown, Conn., that lack even a pinch of compassion for child victims but instead pile on blame for gun violence on society's love of Hollywood movies and video games.

Hmmmh - a lefty black newspaper columnist who passed on a chance to criticize the late Carl Rowan for his hypocrisy on the gun issue . . .

And you are a “proud” American, for the fact that a mental disturbed guy slaughter, 6 adults and 20 children, without any possibility to stop the carnage. The gun control law in Connecticut made that slaughter possible.What a shame!

perhaps someone could put a sign in Mr. Kane’s yard proclaiming it to be a gun free zone...he might come away with a different understanding then!

Surprisingly his e-mail address isn’t accepting correspondence.

Imagine that. I almost registered there, to pile on the ripping of Mr. Leonard Pitts/Clarence Page wannabe or way past was, but the comments are, accurately, tearing him a new one and the Mil J-S simply sux.

Listen you little pric@. You are so blind that you cannot see what your liberal jackasses are doing does nothing. At least the NRA has solutions not political rhetoric. Your type would just pass a law that forbids any killing by gun and think that will automatically solve the problem. Blind fools.

Gun control is codeword for disarming Obama’s sons cause they scare the hell out of the urban effite androgenous white liberal. Hell the insane Bob Beckel all but admitted it on Crossfire one night by saying he could care less what guns they have in Montana it was DC and NYC (places that count) he wanted no guns. And we know who he was talking about.

"If the NRA can persuade enough Americans they need guns in their lives in order to defend their families against violent attack - no matter how unlikely the scenario - as opposed to simply advocating a position that allows hunters and sportsmen to engage in a harmless pastime..." (emphasis mine)

Another intelligence-challenged individual who thinks the 2nd Amendment is about deer hunting.

I say we conduct an experiment - all those who are so tired of our Constitutional rights/freedoms, should have their’s taken away for a year. I bet we have a few converts...

Would he standby and watch his wife and kids be abused?

Does he have a wife and kids or is he a Rump Ranger?

Your right there is no gun Problem Just a Dumb Bastard problem. If they were to look now days most of the shooters are bastards with poor adjustment and judgement that could have been controled with a father figure in the family picture. unwed mothers should not be allowed to keep children due to poor judgement. The head Bastard in the white house should know about that.
