He should have said the mass slayings is going to result in restrictions and regulations. Sensible reasoning is these weapons should never have been in the hands of anyone but law enforcement and military. A well regulated militia, not the crazy "I'm gonna defend myself from the guberment" bunch. He does not want to stop the sells of weapon, the manufacturers he is representating, its not about the second amendment and individual NRA members, he could care less about them. Send the NRA more money and buy the manufacturers products.

Sun Jan 13, 2013, 06:30 PM
Jan 2013

Wayne LePew's rantings are that a sizable number of gun "enthusiasts" (including our very own Gungeoneers) actually believe him.

They actually believe that Hitler took over Germany by disarming only the German Jews. They actually believe that the 2nd Amendment gives them the "right" to take up arms against our government. They actually believe the "good guys with guns" bullshit.

Sadly, these same people don't believe that the NRA and Wayne are lying to them in order to trick them buying even more guns they don't need, on behalf of the profits for gun manufacturers, and the Koch Brothers.

In the meantime, another 2,500 American gun deaths a month, every month, is just the "price we must pay" in order to keep the gun manufacturers in business, and Wayne's salary funded.

First we have to haul them off to FEMA concentration camps for re-education. If that fails, of course we would have no choice but to execute them.

BTW, do FEMA re-educators have unions? If they did, would they call themselves the NRA (National Re-education Association)?
