Today, after yet another school shooting, some gun nuts with access to Twitter barfed out one of their three or four defensive responses in these situations by channeling Charlton Heston and daring the vast expanse of the internet to take their guns away. One guy on Twitter found these peoplesome who had tweeted these sentiments before todayand told them that he was going to take their guns. It was so simple, yet so funny.

(9,186 posts)8. So, absolutely no firearm should be taken away from AMURIKANS?
2nd amendment no matter what? Duhhh, ok.
hack89
(39,171 posts)9. There are plenty of reasons to take away guns from certain people
Permanently for felons and those adjudicated mentally unfit. Temporarily for domestic violence situations and mental illness.
I was referring to those that advocate the total ban of certain guns. Some here advocate for the total ban of all guns.
Why do you insert childish, sophomoric words like AMURIKANS into your posts? Do you really think it makes you look rational and informed?
