You should be surprised because the overwhelming majority of kooks and loons who do this type of stuff are mentally unhinged people on the left of the political spectrum. So when someone like this who is supposedly on the right does it, you should be surprised.

I'm not deflecting anything. These two nut bags don't represent my views as a conservative any more than eco bombers represent liberals. How is that deflecting? I'm very active in the gun rights issue, and we do NOT allow people like this in our midst. Any more than a liberal group would want extremists who think violence is the answer in theirs. Deflecting... wtfe.

You left out ALF the Animal Liberation Front with stole monkey infect with AIDS and let them lose, thank god know one got bitten...

You are always free to move to a country where guns are banned and only outlaws are able to get their hands on them. Don't let the door hit your rear on your way out. Good luck defending your family in such a country where the law doesn't allow you to protect yourself against criminals.

I haven't heard "Love it or Leave it" in quite some time.

Ah yes defending your family, seems like quite a few countries do quite well without having to have a gun 24/7 but don't let that get in the way of some healthy paranoia.

There are many others.

You're a bigot. Get educated.

Exactly. It's the leftists of the world that are the mass murderers. History has shown this over and over and over.

Its not paranoia when its happened to you. Criminal violence has changed my life forever. Lack of weapons would have ended IG, and that of a precious loved one. You can't imagine it unless you've been there. Its very easy to call folks paranoid when your lice has never been violated by a verminous two legged predator. And even if you stop them cold, its an experience that leaves a horrid scar.

Obviously, you feel that personal weapons are silly. Only paranoid people , jumping at shadows, want them. Oh, and these folks are slobbering to "get some" too, lest I forget THAT oft used quip. How little you really know. When you have dealt with your dearest loved one going through PTSD and severe anxiety, been there when a nightmare hits and had them jump out of their skin at a light, loving touch, you can spout off about "paranoia". You honestly think that being an armed citizen is some kind of role playing game?

Maybe we are all just playing here...yea? Maybe you can run the next group therapy we go to. Put all our fears to rest. Tell us how the cops will be there when we need them a d if not, just give the bipreds what they want, at least you MIGHT live that way. Could anything really be worth fighting to defend , after all? The notion disgusts me and blanket statements of "paranoia" does too. I suppose Europeans are getting on just fine like that? Wtfe. No, you need to bag that view of armed citizens up and light it on fire. That's about all its worth. There are seriously evil people out there, who want nothing more than to hurt your loved ones and you. They are armed, and vicious. The only way to answer them is to be armed and more vicious when they attack. And its no silly fantasy or paranoid delusion when it happens.

30,000 people die a year from gun violence in this country. A vocal group of poorly educated Americans continue to advocate for less gun regulation after every shooting. Maybe it's time to ask who the real criminals are at this point?
