BTO: I understand what the intent was of the 2nd amendment....including what the founders expressed through the "federalist papers". Their intent was definitely to allow the citizen the firepower to over throw a tyranical government!
I hope you also realize Canada was not built on this premise?
I have some problems with the Sandy Hook disaster. It seems to me no one is asking the tough questions? Like how did that AR 15 walk out the door by itself and get in the car trunk? Or what happened to that second guy who was arrested in the woods? It would seem if this thing went down like the cops are now saying it did, then they could explain that? Not a word though....what is with that?
I think it is healthy to ask these kind of questions and not believe everything the government or media tell us?

Conspiracy theories or nut bars?
No matter what angle you look at this
from the sad thing is innocent people,
and most sadly, children lost their
lives over what? What a lack of respect
for human life. Sickening no matter
what. If it was simply a nut bar, why
harm innocent children? If you want to
make a statement and harm yourself, go
ahead but leave the innocent alone.

What has society become? Someone on
here mentioned-- the only generation who
is able to sit in a make believe world
killing people for numerous hours a day
in their parents basement via online
gaming. I've thought that for some time
too. Get a job, and make a contribution
to society, volunteer, do something of
value....

The internet is a very valuable tool,
but all the "crap" available on it has
desensitized society, nothing is sacred
anymore and nothing is left to the
imagination.

No Fear... of society, parents or Higher
Power. No Wonder!!!

Enjoy the Season Folks. Best wishes.

In regards to the last video;

" The Second amendment is about matching force (with the military)" I hadn't laughed so hard is a long time. The American citizenry have some catching up to do, after all, who brings an AR-15 to a M1-A1 Abrams fight. LOL

What is the deterant?

None at this time, the prison system is full.
Solution, work camps in Alasks, then the ultimate
deterant. Didn't think of my self as a red neck.
Gun laws, metal detectors, armed guards, etc are
not a solution, so what would be?

So how many men here if they were there and had a
side arm wouldn't have tried to stop it?

What if the loser tried using a fuel truck instead and
you still had your side arm?

Cant make bad guys go away and you can't make
guns go away.

Kind of like decriminalizing drugs,guess who hates
that thought the most,the drug dealers.

The NRA came out with a proposal to post armed police officers at schools to prevent or at least minimize the next school shooting. The left promptly called the idea nuts.

Turns out, it wasn’t a new idea. President Bill Clinton proposed the same idea in April 2000. He implemented it, too, only to see Barack Obama cut the funding for it.




So, if you’re keeping score, the NRA agrees with a 12-year old Bill Clinton position on school security. The left just called a former Democrat president “crazy.”

Let’s get even more confusing. Clinton proposed more security for schools in the wake of the 1999 Columbine shooting. It turns out that Columbine High School did have an armed sheriff’s deputy on the scene the day of its tragic shooting spree. That deputy exchanged fire with one of the killers twice, drawing their attention away from killing unarmed teenagers. The deputy and his backup also helped organize the evacuation of students from the school. Though the deputy’s presence obviously did not stop the attack from happening, it likely did save many lives.

Let’s pile on even more confusion. The NRA today proposed protecting our children to a level similar to the way we protect our banks and many public buildings: With armed security. As we’ve established, this idea has been around for more than 12 years and was once proposed by a Democratic president. Many on the anti-gun left responded to today’s proposal not with a thoughtful rejoinder, but with calls to shoot Wayne LaPierre.

All the NRA has to do, is point a finger
towards Comedia, to show what a FAILURE
registering guns would be. 3 - 4
billion dollars later, the registration
system, was a total utter failure.
Except as a make work program fer
Eastern maritime Comedia, where
unemployed housewives and grandmas made
an attempt to control, duck hunters and
framers. Maniacs and criminals won't
register, thats why they are classified
as maniacs and criminals. Amerika is
mired in a problem that they created and
now must endure, cousin theys simply to
many guns scattered all over their great
nation, God help amerika in the future.
The genie is outta the bottle and can't
be put back in..........

Gotta get rid of the 'gun free zones'.

Who cares if you enact gun control. Crazy guy in the corner will still know where the people are sitting ducks.

Watched one program that showed a Texas school that was 30 miles from a police station. Principal said if there weren't already multiple C/C teachers in that school, a gunman could kill every single person in that place and drive away before the cops could even be seen.

Known criminals aren't the only ones to use guns to kill. Some formerly law abiding citizens pickup guns in domestic disputes, under the influence of alcohol, when threatened, to threaten, and in revenge. Easy access to lots of guns makes it more likely they will be used and more likely there will be fatalities. Many incidents go un-reported. I can think of several incidents in my own community where guns were used to commit a crime. So getting guns out of the hands of known criminals is only part of the solution to reducing gun fatalities.
