First off, I don't open carry. I have one pistol for home protection, and that to the anti-gun nuts makes me a
gun fetish, shows how ignorant they are. I believe in the 2nd amendment and the rights that American have to own guns. Liberals like yourself are all for taking away American rights. Yes, it shows that most of you haven't a clue about guns, and the rights we have as Americans. And the "wittle feewings"BS is childish.

Humm Liberal -V-Conservative?
Slavery was ended .. By a Liberal.. ( Yes a Republican Liberal who was murdered by a conservative )
Interesting as well Jesus Christ would have been considered BY DEFINITION a LIBERAL and He Too was MURDERED By Conservatives..
Liberals made possible ..
Child Labor Laws
40 Hour Work week
Safer working conditions
The GI Bill of Rights ( Conservatives voted against this Bill Vehemently... Especially The Life Time Health Care for WOUNDED WARRIORS and the Continuing Education portions)
Womens Right to Vote ( a few of the ladies here might appreciate that one huh?)
Blacks Right to Vote
Social Security ( which brought MIILLIONS of Americas Elderly Out Of POVERTY!)
We worked to End Segregation and did just that.. ( or the only college's with winning athletic teams today would be Black College's ! )
Passed the civil rights act.
Passed the voting rights act.
Produced the Medicare System
Clean water act
Clean air act
Those are just a few of the Things provided for by LIBERALS ... and Each and EVERY ONE OF THEM WAS VEHEMENTLY OPPOSSED BY Conservatives....
What have those PO_ Conservatives done for us?
The Great Depression .. GWBushs' depression .. 6 Middle East Wars ....Reduced the tax burden of the Top 5% and increased it on the middle 60%... Lowered Working Class Wages .. Sent American Jobs to Mexico and China( Yes it was GH Bush who wheeled and dealed NAFTA and Signed all 3 copies before he left office ) It Was Richard M Nixon who opened Trade with CHINA..


What a waste of time typing all of this BS.

It is one thing to propose legislation regarding a topic you understand. It is quite another thing to just make things up as you go. Recall the "shoulder thing that goes up" remark?

This has nothing to do with the NRA or Fox News or your list of accomplishments.
Glad you had that mess figured out......what a bunch of confusion mixed with BS!

Open carry is not the smartest thing to do, especially in a high crime area.

This proves nothing.

Actually when I lived in America, I had a CCW, and I DO know quite a bit about guns, yes even liberals carry; and never once advocated totally taking everyone's guns away, ,so I have to laugh at the gun nuts that take every criticism of certain types gun owners to mean 'we all want to take everyone's guns away" I know tons of liberals still in America, and none of them, myself included, would deny anyone's right to defend themselves. My only point is that certain pro-gun types take it too far, but that in no way means I want to take everyone's guns away!! I figured the OP would get the pro-gunners all worked up, yet they can insult and laugh at all those that are anti-gun with no problem.

That website looks like it was designed in 1995 by an 8 year old with a freshly acquired copy of "HTML for Dummies". I'm not sure what that says about the kind of people who go there. You do the math.
I didn;t design the page, nor am I a reader of the site, but I'm not sure what that has to do with the story. It's just that on CD all you read about is that the more armed people, the safer the world is, ignoring the fact that in 2015 alone the U$ had what, 355 incidents classified as mass shootings, and what, less that 2 dozen articles of the good guy stopping bad. Not sure why the gun nuts are so defensive about the article, because if it was an article about an anti-gun liberal looking foolish, everyone would be all giggles and laughs. Not so funny when it's the other way around I guess

Not saying you personally, but I hear and read a lot of folks that actually say they pretty much do. I had CCW, why I never felt safe with all the open carry people, who appeared to be just itching for a fight

Out of curiosity, would you think it's that funny when a woman dressed provocatively is raped?

I'd guess the thug would have taken wallets and any jewelry in place of the gun had the gun not been there.

Talk about grasping at straws.

Woman shoots man trying to rob her at gas station - Houston Chronicle

When a man with a knife jumped into the car of this woman at a gas station down the road from my house, she was able to grab her gun and shoot him thus avoiding robbery, rape and\or murder.

Clear proof that sometimes guns are the answer.
Defensive much?
1-I never said guns were never the answer-I used to carry in America. What does your link have to do with the OP? Two different scenarios
2-Point is, he had his gun on him and was robbed nonetheless by being careless, who cares if he open carrying or what, point is, it's too easy in america for those careless types to get access to guns
3- as far as the dress provocatively comment, of course not, but that in no way has anything to do with the story, and the fact that you even equate that scenario and some careless gun owner says all I need to know about you and how you think-or don;t think.
