Gun nuts are insane. I don't know about this father, but the reality is that bullets don't have names on them.
These gun nuts in an emergency situation would be just as big a danger to the public as the would be killer.
Can you imagine having 2 idiots firing bullets into a crowd of screaming people.
These gun nuts are full of fantasies. They really think it is gonna be like the movies, where you take the bad guy out with no collateral damage.
It is frightening how many adults are in the grips of bs fantasies that will get more people injured/killed.
No bigger gun nut than the state.
google how much ammo federal agencies have purchased over the past year, or how many guns the IRS has purchased, or how many weapons it has given to insurgents...
much better to have one so called idiot free to kill kids so the left thinking goes
No the reality is that guns are not what keep children or the rest of us safe.
I am 39yrs old. I have never used a gun to keep myself safe and yet I have never been a victim of a crime.
I grew up in what many would consider to be dangerous neighborhoods. Yet I was never a victim of crime and never used a gun to "protect" myself. How is that possible?
As citizens we wouldn't want to live in a world where actually had to defend ourselves with a gun.
That is not protection that is a crap shoot. Hoping that you are a better shot than your would be killers.
A society in which that becomes the manner in which citizens protect themselves is a dying dysfunctional society.

I agree ultimately, the violence of the US government is tied into the violence of the American people.

the only time a person like you will wish he had a gun is the one time he is shot and he had no answer but death. As you lay dieing you can think if I had a gun and took the time to know how to protect myself I would be alive for my family. then it is too late . So we that choose to have guns and use them for protection have a much better chance to survive a nut case shooting at us.
when a nut case comes after your family you have two options bravely stand in from of your family and get killed hoping your death will stop the nut from killing them as you lay dead, or a gun owner has the chance to stop the shooter before he does anymore damage.
Hopefully that will never happen to you. The difference is on the slight chance it does your dead and did nothing to stop the carnage a gun owner has a chance to stop the nut case , your dead no chance that stops him
you agree it is violent and therefore poses a threat to the people, which is ultimately the reason for the 2nd
Lol, No, I don't agree with that as the reason for the 2nd amendment. I think such a position is insane given the power of our military.
Again, conservatives many of whom express this very fear of the government never the less support huge government spending on the military.
We take a huge amount of American resources and citizens and dedicate those to the military, that is why our military is so powerful.
Most conservatives are in favor of this. So to turn around and say hey we need guns because we might have to fight the military that we have made nearly all powerful is insane thinking.
