IMO, this article should have been in the editorial section of the paper's website. Blatant bias from the first sentence but, hey, it's the Associated Press, so what did I expect, right?

The world will always have some dangers. The pertinent question is how to wisely deal with the risks.

People who want peace really want God. And in God there is a group of imperatives related to His love.

Without God invited, the guns and guts are but prideful show, are but in vain.

Until we can talk as a society about God again, we never can agree.

The anti-gun movement is going to need guns to face the pro-gun movement. And in their stupidity, they will happily arm the government against the people to face that challenge. Never once will it dawn on their puny little minds that an armed government set against the People is set against them as well. Liberals are their own worst enemy -- and sadly they drag forward thinking conservatives into the muck with them.

Excerpt of the opening of the article:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump, darling of the National Rifle Association, has custody of the Oval Office. The Republican-controlled Congress already has ditched one Obama-era rule to tighten access to guns. And an emboldened NRA has much more ambitious plans afoot for easing state and national gun laws as its annual convention unfolds this weekend in Atlanta.

But gun control advocates do not want your pity, thank you very much.

The groups that stand in opposition to looser gun laws say they are ready to rumble, as the NRA enjoys a post-election payoff moment Friday when Trump becomes the first president to appear at its convention since Ronald Reagan in 1983.

We should go after them for conspiracy of Bill of Rights violations.

Dear Bloomberg

You'll have to take my guns from my cold dead hands.

Yours, The USA

I noted with interest that it has zero comments, yet.

How do you suppose Oklahomans will respond to this bit of agitprop?

I think I’ll check back later.

The problem with the gun-control agitators is that their actions have no downside for them - win or lose they never face any problems. If they lose, so what? They'll just try again. It might cost them some money, but rule number one about liberal money is that there is an endless supply. If they win, then they simply go on and start lobbying for ever tighter restrictions.

I'm not sure what could legally be done to put them at risk, and although the only reason some people are still alive is because it's against the law to kill them, it is against the law. Garbage like Shannon Watts, Gabby Gifford, Michael Bloomberg, etc. work their evil without any consequences to them.

The left’s biggest problem is that as gun laws are loosened, crime will drop and it will be that much harder to convince the average American that we have a gun problem. In liberal enclaves, where crime is really rampant, gun laws will not change or will become more restrictive, so people living in those areas will wonder why gun violence is increasing instead of decreasing. But most people seem to make the connection between more guns decreasing crime.

Got news for those assh*les...

It ain’t the “pro-gun government” you gotta worry about.

It’s the armed 220+ million of us.

Just sayin’.
