Until responsible gun owners support responsible gun control laws, innocent blood will continue to flow. How many times must we see this? Mr. King, who has openly supported banning semiautomatic weapons, tweeted to his 743,000 followers Thursday evening.
Too many closed minds on gun control. Worse, far too many PROUDLY closed minds. Meanwhile, the American shooting gallery remains open, he wrote. According to Bloomberg Business, gun deaths will exceed traffic fatalities in America this year. Cant put a seatbelt on a semi-automatic.

He hasn’t been sober all that long - sanity has yet to return....
Compare shooting deaths to auto deaths in the U.S. There are approximately 30,000 auto deaths a year versus a tiny number of non-gang shootings. On top of that, some shooting deaths are defensive...and good.
as bad as your shitty books continue to flow?
“IT” was the first book i ever read that I had to stop because IT WAS SO BAD
I think he was always that way. I tried reading one of King's books once. I put it down with the impression that it would be pure Hell to need to go to sleep with his thoughts every night.
"Innocent blood" has been spilled throughout recorded history and for thousands of years before that. It will continue into the future.
Semi-automatic handguns help to minimize it.
I find his books tedious.
Edgar Allen Poe makes him look like a complete amateur.
But he has some good ones. Cujo, Pet Sematary, and Thinner were good movies. I dont remember if i read them or not. I think I read Thinner.
I’m getting old lol
If only Cain didn’t have access to that 1911...
Salems Lot was very good (in some parts)
There is one chapter that is one page long that is one of the best examples of writing EVER on the entire plane I remember reading it and going “WHOA that was damn good”, and running around and sharing it with people in the library.
When he is good, he is very very good
As someone we all know and love (cough) said, "What difference does it make?"
Roof could have had a revolver and the result would have been the same. Reports say that the victims pleaded with him not to shoot as he reloaded FIVE FRIGGING TIMES. Anyone with a pocket knife could have taken him down permanently while he was distracted. For Chrissakes, they could have used their bare hands and swarmed him - the men could have beat the crap out of him and/or the women could have shredded him with their nails. I would have "soiled my armor" in the process, but what have you got to lose in that situation?
God knows I sympathize with the survivors, but what kind of people have we become when the victims mill around like sheep begging for mercy when even ONE person with some guts could have altered the situation?
What am I missing here?
Ill get back to you with the chariot stats :)............................ They are at the HDVD in Rome. The 2-4hp were the most dangerous vehicles on the road until the very late 1890’s. The 1-4hp had a long run, the same power source for over 20 centuries, then someone came up with an internal combustion engine. We managed to do with 1-6HP for all those years, and now we have 300+hp wheeled vehicles. Bottom line, the fastest thing on wheels for 20 centuries was the Roman Chariot.
