Yeah, just another excuse to take away guns from law abiding citizens.
Hint: It's the ones breaking the law we should be worried about.
That is all well and good, but you can't do anything about that until they actually kill someone, which is why you need BACKGROUND CHECKS!
This is obscene. Make all the excuses you want but really, there is nothing that anyone can say that makes this okay. All you who think you know what the framers of the Constitution were thinking - There is simply no way that this is what they had in mind.

That is the kind of perverted rationalization I regretfully expected from a gun nut feebly grasping for another reason to ignore the real problem of gun violence. Anything; race, economics, social conditions to deflect the reality of weapons of war on American streets. Gun lust knows no bounds.Workers died in industrial accidents before the Triangle Shirtwaist fire. But that horrific event showed the country the true danger and exploitation of the system set up as it was. And the nation reacted.
Bullets thumping into first and second graders at Christmas did nothing to illustrate the venal problem we have with guns in this country.
why should it?.....little kids have been getting shot in the inner cities long before that incidence and nothing has been done about that....why is a bunch of white kids getting shot any different then a bunch black and brown kids?......
The total indifference and the moral rationalization that the guns nuts tried after Newtown showed us two important things about the gun nuts and their warped, juvenile 'culture': 1) They are heartless and feckless and cruel and selfish. 2) they will rationalize any tragedy to justify their gun lust, even the multiple deaths of innocent children.
A pox upon those who are so glib in the face of death and tragedy.
sure as hell doesnt answer what i said does it?.....now why are their deaths supposed to make everyone suddenly become aware of gun violence when kids in the inner cities have been dying weekly for years due to gun violence?.....why dont you just come out and say it.....the darkies kids dont matter as much as the wealthier white kids do.....
is that what it is?.....but yet i notice you havent an answer to what i said yet.....why is that?.....try again....they say third time is a charm....or maybe those kids are too Dark for you and people like you to care.....That is the kind of perverted rationalization I regretfully expected from a gun nut feebly grasping for another reason to ignore the real problem of gun violence.

I'm adopting the gun nut outlook on mass shootings. In other words, I'm going to be supremely indifferent to the phenomena. The piles of corpses no longer shock and revolt. As with the gun nuts, I accept the cost of gun lust as the lives of the innocent.
I will deny that there is such thing as an "assault weapon" because doing so relieves the guilt over doing nothing about them. I will use the 'logic' of the gun nut and claim that since there are so many assault weapons on the street, there can be no solution to the violence they create. I know that makes no sense, but something must act as an analgesic to the pain of mass shootings.
Bullets thumping into first and second graders at Christmas did nothing to illustrate the venal problem we have with guns in this country. Following other massacres in Colorado, sober responsible legislators tried to enact tougher gun laws. A recall election was held and the gun nuts had a little clam bake to celebrate their victory over responsibility.
So with dead children, dead innocent victims in schools, theaters, temples, workplaces and city streets, the gun nuts flaunt their lust for weapons better suited to the battlefield and not in private hands by first citing their constitutional right to wreck havoc on the innocent population. And then denying that the weapons of choice for the delusional and sane alike really exist at all.
I'm following the gun nuts lead on this current tragedy. I'm shrugging my shoulders, forgetting my morality and sticking an NRA sticker on my car. After all, life is a series of trade offs. A desire to be Rambo and carrying deadly weapons certainly trumps the lives of children and innocent adults at the hands of madmen with those unnecessarily lethal weapons. God and the constitution tell me so.

Get off your pulpit, and shove your post up your ass.

There was a score of six and seven year old corpses as a result of Newtown. They happened to be Caucasian. Had that tragedy happen in a school more heavily populated by Black or Hispanic kids, that would not have diminished the sorrow and rage.WEhy are you toddling down your primrose path of deflection and obfuscation?

why dont you reply to what i said instead of doing your ballet around the question?.....but dont feel bad i have asked this same question to others with your limited mindset.....they danced too.....just say it Cosmo.....Black and Brown kids dont conjure up the grief to you white fuckers.....i understand....

You understand that the controversy is that of mass shootings and not one of race, don't you? Why dilute the argument by playing the race card? If the kids were Jewish and Italian, the crime would have been regarded with as much weight as the Triangle Shirtwaist fire. If a bomb had gone off, the crime would bear the same weight as the Birmingham Church bombing of 1963. But it happened in Newtown Connecticut and you chose to focus on race, not the deaths of children.
Sadly, it's a numbers game. 20 rings out louder than one.There was a score of six and seven year old corpses as a result of Newtown. They happened to be Caucasian.

im focusing on race because these minority kids die every fucking week by shootings and have been for years but yet people with your narrow mindset only seem to cry about it when a group of non-poor White kids get killed......if you and people like yourself cared like you say they do.....they would be out there coming down on the Gang related shootings that happen somewhere around the Country weekly......i dont see that happening....do you?.....

As I said before, women and children and men were killed in industrial accidents before the Triangle Shirtwaist fire. But when the death toll rings up the shocking numbers all at once, attention is paid and causes congeal. It's not a race problem, it's a gun violence problem.
And just as the rural White fifth grader killed by his father's improperly secured shotgun does not make the national news, the urban Black fifth grader shot in cross fire does not attract national attention. The two kids are still dead at the barrel of a gun. But if 20 kids are shot at once, the problem is magnified, be they Black, Latino, White, Asian or Aborigine.
True. But an individual tragedy does not make the waves a massacre does. That does not diminish the depths of sadness and horror of the individual shooting. But, as I said, 20 rings louder than one.Sadly, it's a numbers game. 20 rings out louder than one.im focusing on race because these minority kids die every fucking week by shootings and have been for years but yet people with your narrow mindset only seem to cry about it when a group of non-poor White kids get killed......if you and people like yourself cared like you say they do.....they would be out there coming down on the Gang related shootings that happen somewhere around the Country weekly......i dont see that happening....do you?.....

one?.....add up how many inner city kids are killed or wounded because of gun violence in a month around the Country and i think you will find it comes out to more than one
