TAMPA BAY, Fla. (WFLA) — Adopted in December of 1791 as part of the Bill of Rights, Americans have the right to bear arms. And while some lawmakers differ on gun rights, both sides agree they want to help start a conversation on who should be able to be armed and where. State Senator Darryl Rouson of St. Petersburg believes it’s a case by case basis.“I support the second amendment right to bear arms, but I do not believe everybody should be packing,” Rouson said. “I’m not sure that bringing guns to a gun fight leads to peace or leads to safety.”

It still amazes me that in this day and age, a black man from the South still considers that self-defense is a privilege doled out under the tight control of the governmental masters.

But he is a Democrat so he is living the privileged life of the modern-day plantation striving to make sure them uppity people stays in control.

Dear God, man. Have you ever heard of the racially motivated Rosewood Massacre? It only happened 140 north of your city, for f***’s sakes!

No, just no. Nothing is good in this video. Loud Sound Warning because you will scream “NO!” at the top of your lungs.

And this guy is a cop?

Full disclosure: I could only watch till 6:03 as my capacity for watching dangerous bullshit reached critical level.

I would give a hat tip to Sam G. but he ruined my lunch with this shit.

An eight-paragraph Washington Post article on page 10A reported on a national study about kids and guns. The last sentence said 4.2 percent of American kids have witnessed a shooting in the past year.
“Really?” Doud wrote. “Does it really sound believable that one kid out of every 24 has witnessed a shooting in the last year? I think not, unless it was on TV, in a movie, or in a video game. In that case it would probably be more like 100 percent.”

His instincts were right. The statistic was not.

I say momentary because I doubt we will see this happening again. And certainly they won’t back to check all the crap that has been fed through the years.

If anybody knows Fake News intimately is the Gun Culture.

Remember how the Expansion of Immunity from Prosecution was going to make the jobs of prosecutors a living hell?

Marcille said it’s likely the law change won’t impact his office dramatically, as the state usually reviews any self-defense elements during preliminary proceedings before going ahead with prosecution.”The right to self defense would’ve existed anyway, so we do not view this as such a change in the law that it will be particularly difficult for our office to address,” he said

Wait, do you mean to say Gun Control groups, politicians and the Media lied about this? That unimpossible!

Yes, it is no longer “misinformation” or “ignorance,” it is plain lies.

FORT WORTH Legally armed and licensed to carry, the Virginia baseball field sniper breaks all stereotypes of a crazed mass-shooter thug.Or maybe he doesn’t. At 66, James “Tom” Hodgkinson left Illinois for D.C. with a “Bernie!” bumper sticker and a vendetta against not only President Donald Trump but also wealthy lawmakers in both parties, mainly Republicans. But he left behind a more typical history as a violent, abusive alcoholic man who beat a foster daughter and punched one of her friends, a 19-year-old girl, in the face.

Liberals have used violence to their advantage for far too long and getting away with it because a complacent media. But then the Congressional Shooter comes along and the evidence of its Liberalism is so forward that even the best of Media damage Control can’t fix it. But instead of burying it, they bring articles trying to exonerate themselves by doing a Whoppi Goldberg “not rape-rape” like this “article.”

So yes, Hodgkinson had characteristics in common with some mall killer (even though he ain’t one): Liberals, deranged, abusive, violent and with substance abuse issues.

Basically a future Shannon Watts for Congress voter.
