Funny how the right-wing blames porn for how men act, drugs for how kids and hip-hoppers act, bad teachers for kids being stupid, etc etc etc, but they never blame dead bodies on the easy-access to guns. Doncha know!? You could easily knife as many people to death in 4 seconds, if you know how! Sure you could. (Without a single one of those big guys tackling you!)
They are currently running the country, so of course, there is no way to repeal the carnage/damage. (Besides, they love it and feed off it.) Those deaths are on every one of their heads, their hands soaked with blood.
Check out the link to the Politico story on my blog, about how the NRA didn't even bother to assemble any talking points about this incident, that's how totally smug they are, and how they OWN the politicians and political process in the USA.

Or maybe they just have more class and respect for the victims and families than the ghouls from Brady and VPC that don't want to waste a good crisis to get some media exposure.
The pro-gun fanatics are lucky that Daisy only occasionally comments over here.

Wait a second--you're upset with the NRA for not making a big public show of fighting the various forcible citizen disarmament idiocies for which this atrocity is being exploited? Does that mean that you would not have a problem with them if they were now aggressively resisting those proposals?

By equating all these things, are you saying they all deserve blame? I don’t blame any of them. Which ones do you point your finger at? Which ones aren’t to blame and why?
This seems to be a classic case of showing hypocrisy by equating two things, when in fact it just points to your own hypocrisy if you don’t take the same stance on both of them (if the comparison is indeed valid). It is essentially saying “you’re a hypocrite! Do you know how I know you’re a hypocrite? Because I’m a hypocrite.”
I blame the availability of guns, the gun owners who support that availability and the right-wing rhetoric and the shooter. But his blame has to be consideren in the light of his mental condition which might very well diminish his capacity to be responsible.
Is that penguin wearing blinders? How apropos.
ReplyDeleteNo, they are sunglasses.

ReplyDeleteBarring some seismic realignment in this country, the gun control debate is all but settled--and your side won.
Well, he got something right. Puts a smile on my face and a song in my heart.

Somehow, I doubt it.
