Distasteful or deliberate defiance?

[antidisestablishment]

No, unlike some Freepers I have a brain.

I haven't even read the thread, but I must comment on your illustrious post. If the graphic is intended to show your brain, please refrain from public display.

PS: Does it hurt your brain when you sit down?

Yucko the Clown called out the tarot card sniper yesterday on Howard Stern. Yucko said he will spend all day Wednesday October 16th at a Maryland gas station holding a big red bullseye.

"He doesn't have that balls to shoot me-- I AM GOD and no tarot throwing faggot is gonna take me out!"

Yucko is known for his drunken public stunts. He was arrested for running on to Turner Field in 2001 and is on probation for exposing himself in public at a puppet show. This is the first stunt were Yucko has put his life on the line - check back for updates to see if Yucko gets his clowny ass killed.

Whinning is close to the spelling of the sound a horse makes

Snippers are a garden tool.

Unbecomming and disagree are real words without a hyphen.

Sloppy does have double letters.

How *bout "Buy A Gun ~ Kill A Sniper"

[HairOfTheDog]

talking to you is like talking to a woman.

No.... talking to me is like talking to a woman. Is this problem going to get in your way? I don't feel limited by it.

Show a picture of a sniper in the crosshairs, shooting something that shoots a .223. Make sure he is positioned to notice the scope on him, just not quite lined up enough to shoot back.

[Corin Stormhands]

If the graphic is intended to show your brain...

No, but it apparently is what you recognize as a brain.

you are feeling abused because you asked an opinion, but only wanted to hear praise

I did not ask to be accused of laughing at the victims and their families. I was merely pointing out the misunderstanding in thinking I believe the death of humans is a joke. If this is what you see, then you and him must be very good friends.

I chuckle at the idea... But there are a lot of ideas that are funny in the abstract, but are not funny anymore when you make them a real thing. Not funny at all.

The only thing that would make it real is to put a human face on it. What would be real, is our stance against Terrorism (whatever form of fear it comes in) Laughter is not the main goal of the shirt idea.

It's easy for you guys to sit back and play armchair quarterback. Me too for that matter. I just happen to see the world a little differently. And I'm wasting my time arguing with those that think t-shirts and Mars Bars will take care of the sniper...

Oh, come now. Did *anyone* really seriously suggest these thing would take care of the sniper? We are thinking of ways to express our anger and frustration simple BECAUSE all we can do is play armchair quarterback If it ain't your cup of tea, then just go away quietly and let us all work out our frustrations, since we're all against this evil together.

[Corin Stormhands]

I don't feel limited by it.

ROFL!

To quote a "friend" of ours "Fly you fools!" ... Let's get out of here...

[Terriergal]

blown-to bits suicide bomber with the caption "Islam: A Religion of Piece(s)"

LOL (not that it's funny, but it is sorta clever!)

[Diva Betsy Ross]

no sister it is not a problem for me. i often find mtself in the situation of dealing with hysterical, illogical, petty women. jumping to the defense of a name calling liberal like corrin might be your problem.

[Terriergal]

Now there's someone with some fortitude! lol!

[Terriergal]

Yep. It's called PSY OPS isn't it? (not that we laypeople are all THAT good a it...) ;-)

[Corin Stormhands]

If it ain't your cup of tea, then just go away quietly ....

Look, the poster asked for an opinion. I gave it and apparently some people just can't handle it. Go ahead, print and wear the t-shirts for all I care.

They'll still be in bad taste...

My husband and I are seriously considering getting shooting lessons for the family. We have two boys, 9 and 11. We would of course eventually get a gun, however, no matter how much I would lock it up, I still have the fear that my kids or their friends would get ahold of it. If something terrible would happen, I would not be able to forgive myself.

Yes, you would. We don't feel that way if you give the kids the car keys and they do something stupid and kill themselves, do we?

I think it's because part of your brain has bought into the gun control propaganda. That being said, that is not a slam, just a little speculation on my part.

PLEASE DO go out and take firearms safety classes with the entire family. I think it would be great for you all. You don't HAVE to get a gun until you are mentally and emotionally prepared.

We have had several guns for years with children who now range from 9 to 3, and none of them has ever tried to pick up the weapons when we weren't paying attention. They take it very seriously. I can and (have on occasion) leave them lying around (unloaded of course) and they don't give them a second glance. I don't trust their friends as much, however. And no, I don't leave them lying around.

However now we have a 685 lb fire resistant safe. I do feel much better about that. Only the pellet guns are left out for easy access right now, I would like to get a GunVault locker for handguns or something similar so they are instantly available to me if I know the combo, but safe from kids or visitors. You can find solutions to make them relatively safe. A gun for personal safety and home defense is useless if it is locked away somewhere that takes time to open.

If you involve your kids in every aspect of shooting, cleaning, etc, it will take away the enticing mystery of firearms and become rather matter of fact to them. A similar phenomenon occurs with sex when kids are spoken to about it frankly and honestly within the context of a loving family (obviously not forcing info on them that they aren't ready for). It is much less of a temptation in that way.

Whatever you print would be offensive (since innocents have died in this terror assault ...)

But I would think you'd need a big liablility insurance clause ...

... just make sure you use a Kevlar T-shirt though.

[Corin Stormhands]

jumping to the defense of a name calling liberal like corrin might be your problem.

My friend doesn't have a problem except with people who can't handle a difference of opinion.

And if the best you can do is to call me a "liberal" then you need to go back to debate class.
