I love how people are so quick to judge "guns" , as soon as 1 incident happens its all over the news and blown up as such a big deal. Majority of the crimes/deaths done with a gun are either with an ILLEGAL gun from a CRIMINAL or someone with a mental illness .

So lets think about all the abortions , its a free pass on murder . Why do i say murder? Since majority of the people dont give a **** because they can get a free abortion and have careless non protected sex like its going out of style.

What about all the drunk driving? Did people in this country forget about this?

How about medical in this country? Why are certain things illegal in the USA but legal everywhere else? We still cant find a cure for cancer or aids? LOL cmon on ...

So moral of the story is , before people get all antsy why dont you step into reality first and look at the REAL problems that are happening rather then listening to their politics spew bull**** from their mouths . These politicians will only say what YOU want to hear, when is the last time they personally came to you to thank you or personally help you with anything in life? If you want facts , then everyone step back , put politics down , and look at the real problems of this country.
Which you should question the medication that people are, are they really better for you ? Think about our country over 100 years ago when we didnt have all this medicine? You didnt see people going crazy. Also you have these stupid media outlets just brain washing people with nonsense. Seems like nowadays kids want to either A. be all over FB , Tweeter, and Instagram or stay home playing graphic violent games. Also parenting has gone out the window , i find it insane when the parent are acting worse then the kids.


Wake up people before its too late.

Sure lets look at Europe where crimes with firearms are INCREASING compared to the US where crimes with firearms have been DECREASING for 20+ years. So of course with liberal logic we should copy what isn't working somewhere else.

Several suspects in custody after hit-and-run involving deputy

Lets do something about illegals in cars who hit and run and are not even suppose to be in the Country. The family tried to hide him and thought by speaking Spanish they could protect the suspect and now all of them are in trouble and I hope they will all be put in jail and thrown out of the Country since if you first break the law coming here and than hit and run a police officer (who broke both his legs) and than try to run and escape!

To me it sounds there are way more hit and runs than people who die from guns....

What an idiotic idea. Gun free zone is all we need!

Of all the places, I thought we were suppose to believe that gun owners protect themselves and those who aren't are victims waiting to get killed. According to the NRA, if criminals know guns are there, they will stay away. I thought the only solution was a food guy with a gun. Right.
The man who was killed made the mistake of keeping a loaded weapon in his display case. There is much more to this than is apparent at first blush. The guy who did this is an obvious psycho.

Here is a better link to the story.

Actually, I think the others in here see your post as whining. Nobody ever said that if you carry a gun you'll never be harmed. You make it sound like a gun shop owner is immune to such things. Common sense and logic seem to be absent from your reasoning.

Admit it, you simply don't like guns unless wielded by cops.

Why is it that most of the recent shooting rampages have happened in posted gun-free zones?

Are you saying we'd be safer in areas where it is advertised there are no guns allowed in here? Really?

That had to be sarcasm!

If the idea comes from Obama, it's a fantastic idea since the slide of the bread! Anybody against his idea is a racist at least. If it's from NRA, it's moronic, and anybody supporting their idea have children's blood on their hands.
