Boy Jack you sure get mad when you are accurately insulted. You care about kids? What are your thoughts on bike and skateboard deaths, drownings, and fetal alcohol syndrome? Should we outlaw the obvious causes, liberty be damned? ---

And there it is again. Accusations that anyone that support gun rights dont care about kids getting killed while wilting under the I justice of accusafions that while they dont want tragedies some on this board think it migutbe worth it to get rid of guns in society. You delicate flower you. Lets face it some people like you couldnt wait to exploit Newtown to make a political point rather than make a difference. ---

Are you fucking kidding me? It was you, dickhead, who came out with this gem: “I dont think anyone on this board wants tragedy to happen but you certainly get the impression that some people think that it would be worth it if we could get rid of guns.” And we also have this beauty from your comrade in arms (no pun intended) CrafterMan: “… I would rather keep our gun laws exactly the way they are – and put up with the occasional massacre – than enact ultra-strict gun control measures that would guarantee something like this would never occur.” You should look up “projection” in a psych manual. ---

> [@Kable](#): > > You never explained why you haven’t got one. Danger to yourself? Not enough income? Can’t pass the background check? Crushed testicles? Because these are the only reasons people choose to not own guns- they are total pussies! And poor. Or probably criminal or mental defective types. You know- undesirables. In other news, I see persistent demands to release pictures of the Sandy Hook kids who were shot. [Heather Mallick: Mallick: Why Newtown victim Noah Pozner had an open coffin](http://www.thestar.com/opinion/editorialopinion/2013/01/22/mallick_why_newtown_victim_noah_pozner_had_an_open_coffin.html) The reason behind the call to release the pics are to show what 150 bullets can do in 5 minutes. One Sandy Hook mom, Noah Pozner’s mom, actively supports the idea. She refers back to Emmet Till’s mother who asked for the same thing. Emmet Till’s mother wanted the world to see what racism had done to her son. The Pozner’s had an open casket burial for their son. Jacqueline Kennedy made a similar stand following the assassination of JFK. The thought process is that folks should see the results of certain actions. I understand that the type of bullets used at Sandy Hook cause quite a bit of damage and that each kid likely took an average of 5 bullets, ranging from 3 to 11 bullets each. Kable is all about ‘gun freedom’. Does that extend to the freedom to view the carnage? I’m not a gun owner myself, but Kable is, and very pro gun. Kable, what kind of bullets were they? What kind of damage do they do? You know all about that stuff, can you tell us more about it? I don’t want to see the pics myself, but many do. Some folks want to know what 11 bullets in a 60 pound body look like. ---

I’ve never understood this fascination, would you prefer 150 kids all taking on bullet? > [@](#): > > Kable is all about ‘gun freedom’. Does that extend to the freedom to view the carnage? I’m not a gun owner myself, but Kable is, and very pro gun. Kable, what kind of bullets were they? What kind of damage do they do? You know all about that stuff, can you tell us more about it? .223 bullets. I haven’t heard what grain or if they were FMJ, soft points or hollow points, each would do a differing degree of damage. If only the teachers would have been armed so they could stop this tragedy.
