More Stupid Things That Gun Nuts Do

If I was a cynic I would wonder if the NRA ghost wrote this.

I notice a lot of that in GD too. People who make up long, complex, imaginary stories about what the NRA said then post it as if it actually happened.

Of course they never seem to be able to link to any actual NRA posts or statements that might give their ranting some credibility, even though the web site is public access.

I guess newspaper columnists have a lot of imaginary friends too, just like gun control fans. Just like some posters who post and run.

Interesting fellow. Good to see he's got a blog now.

We read guys like this inadvertently helping the NRA and we have to laugh. Who could possibly think it was rational or effective communications?

Gun nuts are a small, small fraction of the nation's population. Gun owners OTH are a rather significant fraction of the nation's population.

Gun control proponents would have more success if they didn't lump the latter with the former so often.

We'll be headed out to the range shortly for some family plinking action. Hopefully no cops will show up. Of course we're going to the same range all the local LEO's train at so it's really likely a group will show up. I'll just bet no one gets killed on this family adventure.

Hell, many of the anti-gunners here can write better comic relief than that.

Can o' beans. Bicycle tire. What part of "well regulated militia" don't you get? lol

point of this thread.

Gun nuts are in fact, a small, small fraction of the nation’s population.

Ummm... you had a lot of incidents to pick from to try to make your point, is there a reason you chose one where the third victim (the one you don't mention at all) was a law abiding CCW holder who died trying (admittedly, unsuccessfully, but quite heroically) to end the rampage and protect people? Now you might say that he failed because he wasn't a professionally trained law man, but then the other two victims were, weren't they?

So, how did the police eventually end the rampage? With good intentions and feather dusters? Or with a high capacity military-style rifle? It's almost as if the inanimate objects are exactly as good or bad as the people holding them...

hmmm.



EDIT: There is a lot of dishonesty on both sides of this debate, but one of the most egregious examples is that when MAIG and their compatriots are bemoaning the number of "gun deaths" in this country, they'll score this incident as five (5), when only three (3) of the deaths are actually lamentable. Do I think the killers deserved to be killed? Not my place to decide. Certainly I pity the man who was forced to do the killing. That said, though, treating every person shot as of equal value is ridiculous.

That's sad.

That's what evil people do to justify harming other people.

How much value do you think Ted Bundy attributed to women?
