Its hard to imagine how the massacre at the Emanuel AME Church that left nine dead could have been worse, but a top Democratic strategist says the shooting would have been a horror if the black parishioners were armed.
Now I cannot imagine the horror that could have occurred if people were sitting around with concealed weapons, this thing started, and you have a full-scale gunfight, said Democratic advisor Bob Shrum on Fridays episode of MSNBCs The Ed Show.
You might not even have three survivors, said Mr. Shrum, a top campaign aide to now-Secretary of State John Kerry during his failed 2004 presidential bid.

This same Victimologist attitude advises young girls to carry a whistle for protection against thieves and rapists. But never, ever be caught carrying a weapon, not even a rock in a sock.

Yep. Also imagine the horror if the Jews in Nazi Germany had been armed. Why it would be even worse than the Wild West and lots of people could have been killed by the gunfire!
Does Shrum The Bum have any idea what he is saying?

They deny reality.
I can’t recall a case where things went worse because a ccw person at a restaurant or store was involved in stopping a mass murderer.

Does he really believe the church goers would shoot at each other, like a Hollywood bar brawl?Obviously. Put a gun in a liberal's hand and he becomes a terrorist. THAT is the problem. If gun laws specifically esclude gun ownership by liberals we will have a safe environment. Arm them at our peril.

He’s paid to disarm people. Plain and simple. It’s how he earns his keep.

"I can tell you what would have happened; instead of 9 dead there might have been 1, maybe 2 people dead before the shooter was taken out.And that is Shrum's nightmare. Currently nine blacks are dead, an eminently satisfactory result for one that pushes for as many black abortions as he does. No guns allowed means more dead blacks. Sounds like a true Democrat.

Law abiding citizens of *all* colors have the moral *and* legal right to defend themselves.If even one of the innocent churchgoers was armed it seems very likely that the carnage wouldn't have been as bad as it was...and it even seems possible that *no* carnage (except,maybe,for the scumbag white punk) would have occurred.
To: BitWielder1
C'mon! You know dam well what the libbys getting at.
He's obviously working with his well thought out scenario in which the church goers were carrying concealed black, fully automatic single shot revolvers with high capacity "clips".
Can you see the problem now?

Yep. Had the churchgoers, even one, been armed, someone could have been seriously injured.

Mr. Shrum, with all due respect (which is just about exactly zero), you are an idiot. You are an idiot and/or a liar. No one with even the smallest iota of common sense could hold with the position you have taken. That makes you either an idiot, or a liar.

Yup, that is why the Secret Service carries guns, submachine guns at that. Guns are dangerous beyond measure. No one should have guns, well at least they should be illegal so that only criminals have them.

Obvious point, if the “victims” were armed, they would not have been victims. I tire of this.

So if 4 pull out guns and start shooting at 1 armed ding, their would be more dead innocents?
These people must be sniffing glue.
