Bang Bang, Shoot Shoot
How very strange, that while congress argues about gun control, people and their guns are all over the news--shooting doctors, lawyers, and even school bus drivers. Gabrielle Giffords, now partially blind and unable to speak as she once did, managed to plead with her constituents in a powerful and dignified manner, even though she was shot in the head two years ago. The gun freaks are freaking out at the prospect of any form of repairing this flawed system. Meanwhile, Hawaii is making plans to tighten-up their already strict gun laws.

I can't remember anymore if the gun nuts are as insane when there's a white republican in the White House. Their lunacy is pretty spooky stuff.
robin,
per FBI public data: more people were murdered with clubs than rifles last year (in the USA). in fact, rifles account for 4% of murders. Assault rifles are a subset of the 4%. Further, a rifle was not used in Connecticut. getting rid of assault weapons won't solve this problem.
the thing about white republicans kinda sounds racist...

Q, I loathe all guns, personally. This despite the fact that family members and friends I dearly love own guns. It all began with the assassination of J.F.K., at the tender age of six. So, whatever the variety, it all spells death to me, which is why I don't own one.
As for sounding racist, so be it. I freely admit that I am sick and tired of old white dudes destroying the world, even though I too am white. I know that every race plays some part in the havoc, but find my own race the most despicable. That all began when I was taught about Native American genocide in elementary school.
