ENOUGH!!!
« on: January 01, 2020, 02:00:04 PM »
It is time for the gun crowd to take a chill pill and settle down!

Ever since last Sunday we have been drowning in a slew of "pro gun" postings and comments bragging about someone being killed.

Dancing on graves.  For years we have accused the anti-gun crowd of this to further their agenda.  Guess what - We can be just as immature and stupid.  Any reason that the anti's point fingers and claim we are blood thirsty gun slingers? 

Next time you are posting or reposting something smug about a good guy with a gun or one shot one kill, think about the real message you are sending to the general public.  Think about how those neutral on the entire gun vs. anti-gun debate are influenced by your comments.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Well said, Mike!

The man who stopped the killer said it best.

"Evil needed to be stopped"

That says it all and should be all that is said.

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

I always feel bad for the victims and those that stopped the bad guy.   It leaves emotional scares all around.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

That's the only thing I read about it online. I didn't see any other comments, not that I was looking for any. I don't watch the news, so I don't hear a lot of the negative s**t in the world.

One less killer is a good thing, but someone having to put him down is nothing to be happy about. You have one man dead, and another man with a memory that will haunt him the rest of his life. I can't honestly say who got the worst deal.
""It may be laid down as a primary position, and the basis of our system, that every Citizen who enjoys the protection of a free Government, owes not only a proportion of his property, but even his personal services to the defence of it, and consequently that the Citizens of America (with a few legal and official exceptions) from 18 to 50 Years of Age should be borne on the Militia Rolls, provided with uniform Arms, and so far accustomed to the use of them, that the Total strength of the Country might be called forth at a Short Notice on any very interesting Emergency." - George Washington. Letter to Alexander Hamilton, Friday, May 02, 1783
