Humpfh. Sort of like when she called us deplorables. Methinks the high sheriff is about to be surprised by the resilience of the sheep.

Those saying the AR has no civilian purpose forget that keeping tyrants at a distance is PRECISELY the “civilian purpose” enshrined in the Second Amendment.

Especially when you read the entire amendment, rather than cherry pick phrases to explain what they mean in isolation.

Israel is a non-practicing Jew married to a non-practicing Christian and he often tries to portray himself as religious. I want public officials who attend church or temple. . . especially when they have the lives of children in their hands.

Precisely. The 2nd Amendment was written expressly for the AR-15.

If by, “Lion,” he meant, “big pussy,” then I suppose his remarks were accurate.

Where was this guy when the massacre went down?

Who was he talking to?

Did he order a stand down?

Inquiring sheep want to know.

Scoot Israel is also a close pal of Roger Stone.

• Police (who have guns) visited the perp’s residence 39 times
• The FBI (who have guns) didn’t pick up on tips that Cruz was armed, mentally unstable, made threats on social media, and had a prior history with the school system.
• Police (who have guns) were watching the action at the school on CCTV with a 20 minute delay. The situation was over before their self-imposed delay gave them cause to act.
• A Broward County Deputy Sheriff (who carried a gun) on the school’s property made no effort to engage Cruz given ample opportunity.

Four systemic failures by three groups with direct responsibility for preventing and engaging exactly this sort of crime.

The State’s proposed solution: take the guns away from law-abiding citizens who were not in any way involved.

The “let them eat cake” response didn’t work that well last time.

Saw this guy on an early morning news conference (TV) a couple a days ago. He was the only one wearing Sunglasses. I remarked to my Wife, - he looks like the Cool - Hand - Luke - Sherriff. No wonder there’s a failure to communicate.

Lions do care about the opinions of cape buffalo. The buffalo understand the importance of keeping and bearing arms and having counterattack strategies worked out in advance:

After the Cruz murders, it's clear that the Broward County Lions don't care about the sheep at all and the don't care mindset comes straight from the top Lion Scott Israel down to the lowest level cub in his department.
