Gun Free Zone

Dear Cult to Stop Gun Rights Violence: If you have to quote Nixon to defend your cause, you are pretty much done for.

[insert facepalm here]

From CSGV’s Facebook quoting from an article by Amy Davidson in The New Yorker:

This rubbed me the wrong way. If anything it goes to show that most Anti-Gunners simply hate guns just because. You see, if Ms. Perkins had been beaten to a pulp and put in a coma by Jovan Belcher, that would be OK because there was no gun involved and she’d still be alive.

I am not gonna blow gaseous by-product of bonfire up your sphincter and tell you there is no good violence. I firmly believe in what Col. Cooper’s thought of “that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.” But I do believe like many Gun Owners do that any violence against the innocent is wrong. I do not make a distinction based on the type of weapon used or who is being targeted but our opposition does. We comment on how disgusted we feel when a man rapes a woman, or when a child is abducted, sexually abused and killed, or a mob attacks a homeless guy for shits and giggles, or any other way that an innocent is hurt or killed by those using violence.

You will not see the same level of care for others in the other side of the “Gun Conversation.” They are solely focused on eliminating the object and damned be anything or anybody else. I can imagine them scouring the news websites: “Elderly woman attacked by serial rapist.? Nope…. Child abducted from playground. Police fears the worst? Nah…who cares?…. Domestic dispute ends up in woman’s death? Yess!…lemme check…he used a baseball bat, not good… Parking Lot dispute ends up in shooting? Yes! Prepare to release the outrage against the eeeeevil NRA!”

How can anybody live such a soulless pathetic life with the pride they exhibit is beyond my comprehension.

Am I the only one that feels this way of checking a gun is unnecessary and may end up with a purple nail? I have seen people doing this with the index finger too which I do find silly because even if it is the finger from your weak hand, you wanna keep it uninjured.

My opinion is: If it is dark enough that you can’t see the chamber, maybe you shouldn’t be messing with it in the first place.

Thought?

As Sean Sorrentino puts it: ‘I do believe that Death is going to have to sneak up on this old man while he’s sleeping. Death would be afraid of “getting his tail kicked.” ‘

“I figured there’s a whole lot of ways I can do this,” said Brittnacher. “And I don’t want to shoot him.”

And yes, he could’ve easily shot the intruder. The 79-year-old keeps rifles propped next to his doors to scare away coyotes. Old photographs hanging on his walls show him riding bulls and certificates deem him a member of the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame.

But when he saw the gunman and listened to his almost unintelligible gibberish, Brittnacher decided to handle things differently.

“I didn’t know whether to be scared or feel sorry for him,” he said.

So he hit the guy. Hard. Right in the throat, like a karate chop.

They don’t make them like that old cowboy anymore.

This one got displaced by the whole Bob “I stole Howard Cosell’s toupee” Costas affair.

ZOMG! The racism! Them gun-toting rednecks just wanna shoot poor “undocumented” aliens and their cousins, the unlicensed traveling pharmacists!

Here is the money quote from the original article:

“We’re about 150 miles from the border with Mexico and we’re very unsure about our insecure borders — about what’s coming into our cities,” Pastor James Miller told NRA News. “Personally, I feel more secure that should our worship time be interrupted by a life-threatening intrusion, that we would at least stand some kind of a chance in stopping either a mass killing or terrorizing experience.”

Is the Pastor a paranoid White Supremacist? Probably the opposite. Maybe he is just somebody that is really worried about the unchecked flow undesirables across his state. But you shouldn’t have to take my word for it, you go ahead and trust your Federal Government when they tell you the same thing: Illegal immigration and smuggling are dangerous.

Then again what does Ladd and Josh know about immigration problems? For them illegals are the guys that come do their landscaping every other weekend or gather in the parking lot of the local Big Box Home Improvement center.
