But he's a liberal - part of a group that spends its life pushing an agenda that most Americans don't want.

The only way he can do that, is by lying about things, tricking normal people into supporting his agenda instead of their own, and pretending it's something else, at least until the votes are counted.

Every time you think a liberal "doesn't understand" or "is mistaken" about something, think again. Because they KNOW what they are saying isn't so. But they'll say it anyway, to fool decent people into supporting them.

These people lie like you and I breathe. Lying comes as naturally to them, as breathing... because it's the only choice they have, if they want to succeed.

For the 4367th time:

Automobiles, guns, electrical things plugged into the wall, sharp knives, and swimming pools, are all things that can kill people if not properly kept and used.

If you leave a car with the engine running, door open, and keys in the ignition where 4-year-olds can get to it, sometimes no kids die, and sometimes they do.

If you leave a gun loaded and sitting around where 4-year-olds can get to it, sometimes no kids die, and sometimes they do.

I recommend against doing both of those things. But I don't recommend doing away with either class of item. Because both have very important roles to fulfill in making life safer, more pleasant, and more prosperous for law-abiding people; and attempts to eliminate either would simply create an instant black market where only lawbreakers would have them.

Let's see? Don't take an automobile, electrical things plugged into the wall, sharp knives or swimming pools to a gun fight. Got it.

You always know when liberals have lost the debate and can't refute your point. They try to pretend you said or meant something else you clearly didn't.

You teach your kid not to play in a busy street, it's the same as teaching them not to pick up a gun, loaded or not.

You know what, your are so very right on this. We were at the mall on Saturday past.

I was so disturbed. We were in one of the major department stores. I am not kidding, there was this little girl, that had to be around no more then 3.

No parents roaming around, no parents in site. One of the sales clerks, got hold of the little girl, and asked her name. And on the intercom told her parents to get to the home department. Thank Goodness this little girl spoke very well and did know her name, she was bright. Not the point, at this young age, you don't let your child out of your site.

What the hek is wrong with people, why no responsibility. Who would let their 3 yr old child roam the store with no supervision. I don't honestly understand. Not the way I was when my children were young.

When I told my friend about this, she made me mad, first thing she said was what was the race. Not the issue, race is of unimportance, when your showing lack of being responsible for your child. I don't give a damn what race you are, don't let your 3 year old child roam a department store, with no supervision

I was very upset by this..

I suppose it could be worse.

According to the Centers for Disease Control's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, 703 children under the age of 15 died in accidental firearms deaths between 2001 and 2010, the latest year for which data are available.
During the same period, 7,766 children under the age of 14 suffered accidental firearm injuries.


I can't even think about how the parents feel when their kid kills themselves or someone with the gun they left laying around.

This. When I was a kid, my dad had two rifles and a shotgun sitting out on a gun rack in the den. Guess what , I'm 44 now and didn't shoot myself or anyone else.
