It's not a game of thrones Chucky. As I've explained before to you, I am not anti-gun. Too late for that; you and others are doomed to ride this pony 'til it drops.

Your emotive silliness illustrates exactly what's wrong with the proliferation of them in the hands of immature, mentally deranged and criminal people.

Not to worry, we can always count on gun grabbers such as yourself to make sure it is posted everywhere.
We know that anything that involves a gun will immediately be big news here, so we are sure not to miss anything.

Never said it was BS.....but keep thinking that it's only us "good guys with guns" who are doing all this damage, that is your narrative, right? I mean you say you are a gun owner, yet only post in bull crap threads such as this...right?

Your ignorance does not realize what is actually going on....hell, you and your stupid ilk fail to even realize after FBI data proves you completely 100% wrong...yet your ignorance and your fellow anti gun folks (you can say your anti gun all you want, your record here on CD proves you wrong).

SO, lets end this now BS.....this is a 2 part question, so you may have to think a little:

What style of gun kills more than anything other gun?

What style guns are on the "bad list"?

Go ahead, when you actually look at the entire picture, you maybe amazed, doubtful, but we will see....

But lets only worry about the person who has a concealed carry permit....lets not worry about the 15 year old who was standing on her porch and was shot....do you think that person that was shooting had a concealed permit?


You have something to ride BS.....but I'm afraid you may like it like that.....

I don't want your guns.

In what part of the world, besides some third world chit-hole, would killings by any firearm NOT be considered newsworthy?

Do you really want your country reduced to that of the insignificant over something as stupid as your petty love affair with the firearm?

An interesting thing is that (as of right now) the shooter and victims haven't had their names released. Usually that happens within a few hours.

I wonder if the shooter was an Open Carry agitator, calmly walking down the street as they are prone to doing? The gunman was described as very calm; someone we might not know from a "good guy with a gun" at any given moment. How can anyone fast-track a mental evaluation in such a situation? It only takes a quick lifting motion and finger movement to return to Dodge City.

I am weary of the claim that someone with extreme gun politics is "law-abiding" by mere virtue of having not shot a person yet, when you can tell that's their fantasy (in self defense, usually). A number of them practice on animals for years and you can't identify them on the street until bullets are airborne. I suspect many people have strolled right past some CCW or Open Carry nut who had thoughts of flipping out but didn't act that day.

I'm for guns as a home defense, but their presence on the streets rarely seems comforting. You just can't know what's going through everyone's mind. Even the police are worrisome, but I'm not talking about Black Lives Matter, just the general potential for mayhem with fast projectiles and hot tempers.

You're a hoot Chucky. I talk about guns in the hands of immature fools, the insane and criminals and you talk about CCW holders. If you conflate them; why would you expect better of others?

The rest of your post is typical Chuckspeak.

A sensible responsible outlook reminiscent of the past when they were considered a tool as they still should be.

The all too easy access afforded to those who anger swiftly without an actual threat present, but merely some situation that hit their particular hot-spot, is the reason sensible people did not want a firearm present 24/7 for generations.

Regressing back to the days when firearms were all too often resorted to for dispute resolution is not a desirable thing.

Petty love for a firearm huh? Hmm, never realized that before. On the other hand an M16 did keep me alive for a year, so petty love sounds OK to me.
