More Guns And Looser Gun Laws = More Gun-related Deaths. And Conceal Carry Didn’t Help A Bit

June 28th, 2009 · 9 Comments

Excuse me for taking a break in my life from Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and the Iranian situation, but does anybody remember ANY of our major news networks spending a lot of time on this story?
I mean, the report came out just last month, based on statistics from the CDC. From the story (emphasis [...]

Another Senseless Gun Death In A Senseless Country

June 24th, 2009 · 2 Comments

A sickening story.
Another g-damn loon with a g-damn gun who probably g-damn legally acquired it has killed a good man. Scratch that. A great man. A hero to a small town. A town that just went through the trauma of being leveled by a tornado. A town that saw it’s collective spirit picked up [...]

Senseless

November 2nd, 2008 · 2 Comments

What a sad state this country is in.
As I put on another blog, I suppose the “media” is to blame for sensationalizing this story about a 12-year old trick-or-treater killed Friday night by an AK-47.
Or how about the idiot who chooses another family’s funeral to gun down a preacher and a church deacon?
Yep. Guns, guns, [...]

More Guns, We Really Need More Guns!

October 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment

Unlike the previous two stories, this one focuses on an accidental shooting. But there still needs to be a bunch of people put away for life for the one they took in this incident…that of an EIGHT year old. And that makes this story easily the most tragic of all.
We don’t let kids vote [...]

Apparently, these killers, unlike those that were targeting Senator Obama, didn’t have many plans, just wanted to make a few random killings using guns. Sick.

More Guns, We Need More Guns!

Two neo-Nazi, skinhead, neo-cons see their plot to kill Senator Obama foiled. Thankfully.
But these two clowns had even bigger plans than that. Again, thankfully, these a’holes were caught before lives were lost due to guns.

Conceal Carry Really Helped Here, Didn’t It

September 16th, 2008 · No Comments

From my home state, comes this story. A story we read FAR too often in this country.
Another legally acquired gun ending lives. Sad.
Pop quiz: guess how many people would have died in Illinois in this story? Answer: the exact same number. Conceal carry isn’t the answer, people. Period.

And The NRA Thinks We Still Don’t Have Enough Weapons?

October 11th, 2007 · 7 Comments

Wow. Surfing around in the interest of self-education tonight and I find this heartwarming story. (sarcasm)
So 57% of all guns manufactured world wide every year end up in the U.S. Gun owners are soooo abused here, aren’t they? Um, people, I think we have enough.
Lots of people think we have “enough” things, like teachers, funding [...]

…And Nearly Again UPDATED

Police find arsenal in kid’s house before he gets to kill.
Oh, here’s the most disgusting part:
The weapons included a 9 mm assault rifle that the teenager’s mother had recently bought for him, Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce L. Castor Jr. said. Prosecutors are reviewing her actions.

Then, of course, there’s this part:
Also discovered were seven explosive [...]

Students tried to warn staff at the Cleveland alternative High School that was the scene of yet another scary shooting incident.
“Armed with two revolvers”, the story says, as well as “had a history of mental problems” and “he was talking about doing it last week”. Oh, and don’t forget, “He seemed like an angry young [...]

Here We Go Again

October 7th, 2007 · 37 Comments

Another white guy, another legally obtained gun (he was a police officer!), another six senseless deaths. When you count the gunman, the total rises to 7.
Wisconsin horror.
When is it going to stop? When are we, as a society, going to open our eyes and grow up? Amazing. Sickening. But “don’t take away my gun”, right? Whatever.
