I'm 100% for the right to own & bear arms without government interference.

With that said, I do not own any guns.

Jeez dude....have you EVER been married? Ever play baseball?

I'm guessing these questions didn't come from the daily SJW marching orders blast email. Hilarious !!

I thought GOP/ NRA supporters always carried a piece just in case.
Well, you thought wrong. Just because you are for the right to carry does not mean you have to carry. Do you have enough brain capacity to understand the difference?

Great post. Unseemly indeed. Downright scummy.

That poster actually used to be sane once upon a time, it's painful to watch.

I keep a gun in my home- except for that- i do have a baton in my car-but i walk and go-- in peace- I can't live in fear - i'm sure they felt they were in a safe place- and had some security with them, which annihilated the guy- so it worked

That's what you get for thinking.

It would have been irresponsible gun ownership carrying in a ball park.

Same here. I have no guns in my house.

One of the perks of living in a super-safe area with cops 30 seconds from my house.

What a scummy thread of victim blaming.

Because they didn't listen to Ted Nugent. Besides, they would have needed a rifle with a scope.

But I get the drift. The NRA would have preferred that the entire neighborhood each hit the streets with red or blue hats on (party declaration) and have a nice firefight. This would then cause others elsewhere to buy more guns and ammo and join the org.

America is a sick place. We could have some homegrown terrorists enter a stadium and kill 500 people with long guns and we wouldn't talk about the gun issue. Instead we'd talk about how we should all mourn and talk about that sometime later.

Ironic, for sure.
