Do you really think that crime magically stops by yourself? Are you stupid and naive enough to believe that REAL bad guys (not the ones that you kiddies see on Power Rangers) will just decide NOT to interrupt your sheepish little life with a robbery of whatever-nameless-retail-establishment-you-are-unfortunate-enough-to-frequent, shoot everyone to eliminate the possibility of witnesses, slit your throat, and sodomize you in broad daylight just for good measure, will spontaneously decide to just put aside their hell-bent ways and become boyscouts overnight? Do you really believe that hardened criminals who pack a sawn-off 10 gauge gangsta style on a daily basis will suddenly decide to put aside their rape-rob-& pillage ways practically overnight?????
Hardened criminals respect one thing: force, and force has been dealt on the streets and malls of Chicago by a warrior so skillfully lethal that even his aliases have become legendary. Almost single-handedly I, the humble disciple of a Great and Infamous Master of the old world, have learned the oriental ancient techniques of Ninjutsu and adapted the mythical arts to adapt to the three-dimensional combat setting of a (nameless) urban retail establishment and to make the greatest use of a modern arsenal so lethal, that the mere knowledge of such is illegal for civilians.
With the decay of society and the rotting away of the moral fiber of our country this world is getting more and more dangerous and down right mean. Who do you think protects you from the scum of this society??? The cops, the FBI, the army???Guess again, it’s the guys guarding your companies, your banks, your schools, your homes, your supermarkets, and yes smartass, even your malls. What good are the cops going to be if a shooter shows up at your workplace??? How about your kid’s school, remember Columbine? I’ll tell you what the cops will do, call the SWAT team and screw around trying to locate the front door for 30 minutes, while you or your children are shot down like prairie dogs at a drunken machinegun shoot.We are on site, when the cops are cruising around handing out speeding tickets or harrassing prostitutes. We risk our lives so you can go home to mommy at the end of the day and this is the respect we get??? Hell, I’d call some of us “heroes”, but I’m sure most of you juveniles don’t understand the meaning of such a Distinguished word.So go play Rainbow Six and frag some “tangos”, and tell your mommy to bring you some milk and cookies. Meanwhile, my ass is one the line so your fat butt can go to the mall and pick up the latest copy of “Computer Gaming Monthly” without getting jumped and sodomized in the mall bathroom.
Jadegold,
ReplyDeleteAs seems to be often the case, I have no idea what you're getting at.
Pretty simple. Lots of NRA members believe owning a gun entitles them to interpreting the laws as they please.
ReplyDeleteOr to put it another way: it surely is a gigantic coincidence that mass shooters tend to parrot the NRA partyline, huh?
DeleteYou seem to think there's something wrong with the picture there, but since you don't offer any commentary, your point isn't getting across.
DeleteIn this instance perhaps. Plenty of others have been apolitical, anti-gun, or just confused in their politics, rantings, manifestos, and the like.

Three-quarters have been lawful gun owners up until the moment they weren't anymore.
DeleteMikeb, do you realize that right up to the moment that anyone commits a crime, that person is law-abiding? That's the way our law works.
DeleteSo just make more laws so they won't be "lawful" anymore. What a grand idea.
