Proof that guns are EVIL

“I believe foreign automatics are still illegal yes?

Be a patriot, waste Americans with American weapons! It's good for the economy!”

“That is so sad dayhiker. If people just did the right things we would have far less shlt like that happening. By doing three things there should never be an accident like that:

1) keep ammo and guns seperate
2) disable the trigger with a trigger lock
3) lock up the guns”

“The report made it sound like he got home from work, had already secured his service weapon, and was more casual with the 2nd weapon.

Also, it was his step child. Can you imagine the extra strain that brings. Somehow it seems like if that happened to your own child you'd be more likely to lean on each other. I may be totally off base there though.”

“Gawd, that almost makes it worse somehow. While I do believe we have the right to own guns I do believe there should mandatory training, registration, testing and licensing...just like cars.”

“Mutt, you are like that dang beagle down the alley.

Once that little peckerhead starts yappin'........”

“"So rather than selling the guns and putting clothes on your kid’s backs and food in their mouths, as you pointed out as the responsible thing to do, you went and bought an amp? Huh. Very father of the year Tom."

Here's a concept for ya, Nigal.

It's called "personal property".

I own something, I dispose of it as I see fit.

With those power tools I built electric guitars.

My son and I play those guitars with the afore mentioned amp.”

“The guns that I will get are great though. My grandad bought several German Mauser actions that were built pre-War. That's significant because the quality declined as the war progressed. My sister has already laid claim to the 30-06 because it's "pretty." He hand carved and aged the stock out of perssimon wood. It's a bright yellow color. Very weird wood color. It has a double heavy barrel and double triggers. It's a target rifle and not for hunting. My dad goes by the family name of Cannon. One time when I was a kid we were out shooting with some of his friends that he'd grown up with. I vividly recall someone saying, "Thanks for letting me shoot your cannon, Cannon." Another time we were at the local rifle range and some friends of mine pulled up. They had just gottn back from basic training for the Guard. I offered them some cotton for their ears. One of them spouted off about how loud a claymore mine was. After my second shot they asked for cotton.”

Eat my shorts, conquistadope!”

“Claymores are a blast!”

“Hey, don’t have a Hall of Fame Hissy on my account. I’m just going by what you say dude (depending upon what time of day it is). Don’t bust my onions for noting your flip flops.”

“You talkin' to me, Flopsy?

Tell me about your flip-flops.”

“Eat my shorts, conquistadope!

LOL!”

“Enlighten me Tom! :)

“Sure, if I was a self-interested guy to whom my toys took precedence over other concerns and spent money, that otherwise could and should go to home, household and the future of my family.”

Gawd, no wonder you love Kerry so much! LOL!”

“You guys are too much fun!”

“I'm sharing the proceeds of the gun sales with my family, dingbat!

AND............it's my business anyway.

You just think I'm a traitor because I no longer own guns.

The idea here is that I did something constructive with my former weapons.......and in the interest of safety.

Sure, rock and roll has been called destructive by conservatives, but so what?”

“The three of yall need to get a room.”

“Rockin' the blues with my kid.......quality family time...;^]”

“A rubber room?”

“I don’t feel betrayed you got rid of the guns Mark. I’d prefer you don’t own guns. I don’t care if ya keep ‘em, sell ‘em or shove up your poop shoot. It’s your hypocrisy that makes LOL.



”

“Just more invective from an angry white boy.

You're second guessing me, I tell you to shove it, and where's the hypocrisy?”

“Dang Tom, you stay on topic about as well as ya keep your story straight. Are you high right now? When you gave the impression that only a “self-interested guy to whom my toys took precedence over other concerns and spent money” would keep guns when that money “could and should go to home, household and the future of my family.”, and then turn right around and say ya bought a new amp and tools with it. If this is providing for the family I’m sittin’ the wife down tonight to have a talk about how I want to improve our home life and future and get me some new tools and an amp! YEAH BABY!

OK, your turn flipper…”

“With those tools I made a number of things.

There were the guitars, which are something the kids and I use(selfish, but constructive).
And I intend to make more, maybe even sell some to suppliment the household income.
(The guns were lying useless AND secure, so forget about bustin' my onions for not knowin' how to secure firearms.)

Hmmmmmm,

Oh, I almost forgot the loft bed.

The coat rack(small potatoes)

I made some window and door parts and some woodworking jigs.

I installed a window in the windowless garage.

I made a maple roof rack for the Bronco.

Oooo, ooooo, the fireplace mantel.

If I think of anything else, I'll post it.
I know how you absolutely must stick your nose into my business.

Sure, I ENJOY woodwrecking.
So even though the tools were used to make things for the family, I am a hypocrite.....ya got me...>8^]

And the amp has been used for gigging as well as practice/enjoyment so, busted again.

I sold my monster 100 watt amp ten years ago to help pay bills......my only unselfish act.....ever.

yours truly

Gomer W. A-hole”

“Wait a minute....

"high"???
On crack, of course!

"new amp"......it was used”

“House GOP Proposes to Repeal D.C. Gun Bans
Vote May Come as Bush, Kerry Debate Limits

By Spencer S. Hsu
Washington Post Staff Writer
Tuesday, September 14, 2004; Page A01

A majority of the U.S. House of Representatives is supporting legislation that would repeal virtually all of the District's gun restrictions, targeting one of the nation's most stringent handgun bans while the presidential candidates are battling over gun limits.

Rep. Mark Edward Souder (R-Ind.) said House Republican leaders have promised him a vote before the Nov. 2 election on his proposed D.C. Personal Protection Act, which would end a ban on handguns in the nation's capital; remove a prohibition against semiautomatic weapons; lift registration requirements for ammunition and other firearms; and cancel criminal penalties for possessing unregistered firearms and carrying a handgun in one's home or workplace."

because they all live here and want to feel safe, right? I mean who cares what the citizens want”

“Would this mean Kerry has to give that ilegal shotgun back to the union shil?”

“It probably won't pass the senate. But dammit, The GOP's continuing interference with DC has me leaning away from independent and going DEM.”

“Interfering with DC does really count because DC's not a real state. LOL!”

“Spoken like a true Politician.”

“Glad I could straighten that out for ya and please remember me in november! :)”

“Our US constitution was drafted up and accepted as a document 228 years ago, and the second amendment was ratified 15 years later in 1791.

Alot has changed since then, civilization has devolved to a whole different scenario than what America was like 213-years ago. So maybe, by now, depending on criteria, some shouldn't have the right to "...bear arms". Of course, what do I know, I could be wrong.”

“Alot has changed since then, civilization has devolved to a whole different scenario than what America was like 213-years ago.

And yet, in recent history, we see despots pave their way to power after they successfully disarm the populace; cf. Hitler. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

So maybe, by now, depending on criteria, some shouldn't have the right to "...bear arms"

Criminals don't have the right to bear arms. They do anyway, of course, which is why gun control is utterly bereft of legitimacy.”

“And the yappin' goes on”

“F***! I work with a bunch of uninformed liberal weenies. We're getting some money from the NRA to promote firearms safety, and everyone in the weekly-waste-of-time-office-meeting was tsk-tsking about not wanting "those values" to be promoted here, and that the NRA is helping people to "kill things", because apparently that's all gun-owners do with their firearms, and how people don't really need to own firearms, and these people don't even think hunting should be legal, because of course shooting Bambi today means going postal in the post office tomorrow. F***ing ignorant sheep.

I wish I could've spoken up, but I was too disgusted to have been a good, polite spokesperson for firearm ownership. This is usually a politics free place to work, and this caught me off guard. So I just stayed quiet. And now I feel like a weenie!

Just had to vent. I still want to know what evil values firearm ownership confers upon a person.”

“And now I feel like a weenie!

Well, you can't have mine.”

“Yep. Big talker behind the screen, but in reality... not so much.

Can't say I'm surprised.”

“ok, that was pretty weak. got by on that one”

“Anyone put Moon's comment on the other thread?

You can have mine....wow like that shocks me coming from a former Cav NCO....(LOL)”

“can't have!

can't have!”

“Maybe you're right, Tilt. I do admit I avoid politics and religion at work.”

“yeah right.....talk about an EDIT function (LOL). Makes me feel better changing it though...thought you had gone Marine on me.”

“Tilt only approves of guns if they are in Palestinian hands.”

“I sell guns for a living (Merchant of Death that I am) and hope to be doing it as the manager by the start of the new year.

Go get 'em Mutt......don't forget your weenie.”

“Change your underwear, Poopypants.”

“Nonconformist.....Smith Sigma series...whats your opinion of the .40 cal?”

“Are you asking about the Smith Sigma and the .40 caliber round as two different questions, or the Sigma in .40?”

“A fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity.

Sigmund Freud”

“Would have been a perfect chance to enlighten some folks.”

“Yeah, you're right, le subtil. Next time I won't be caught off guard!”

“I want one of the new Smith Smegma guns.”
