By monitoring Stupid Gun news on the SDMB?
If they are safely stored, then when the person that they sold it to uses in a crime, they can’t use the excuse that it was stolen.
Glad to see the woman is being careful with her handgun. Nothing secures a firearm better than a pocket on some stretchy shorts. What a dumbfuck.
Oh yeah, btw, there were 12 people killed in Virginia Beach yesterday.
A price the gun cultists are quite willing to pay for the “right” to indulge in their masturbatory Dirty Harry fantasies.
That’s really odd. That’s the first I’ve heard of the shooting, but for the last couple of days, youtube has been showing me commercials for Virginia Beach.
Granted, I don’t watch or listen to news feeds 24/7, but the first I heard of this was via a friend’s Facebook post.
This morning when I turned on the TV, MSNBC and CNN were covering this story extensively. Fox News was talking about how the tariffs would eventually hurt both China and Mexico.
You guys aren’t giving nearly enough thoughts and prayers! Up your game, god damn it!!
They’re having *real *trouble dismissing this guy as something other than a responsible, law-abiding citizen, a professional adult whose guns were legally purchased, because people still got killed who wouldn’t have been otherwise. There’s no way to define a screen that would have excluded him, since he met every definition of Good Guy With A Gun right up until he wasn’t anymore. But, rather than tell us they’re rethinking their views, they’re just shutting up, the fucking irresponsible cowards.
Oh well, #(PlaceName)Strong, thoughts and prayers, now is not the time either, if only there was something that could be done … Until next time.
If they did anything that would have prevented this tragedy, then it would mean that they wouldn’t get as many toys to play with.
Priorities man, where are your priorities? Would you deny a upstanding white guy the pleasure of being able to use any gun, any time, for any reason, just to prevent the deaths of innocent people?
You monster.
This guy was actually black. You can tell because the cops killed him. Maybe that’s their opening this time.
This must be fake news. Criminals don’t use legally purchased guns. Everybody knows that.
No person is a criminal until they are.
But … but … we’re the Good Guys and they’re the Bad Guys! They *need *killin’!
That’s how the moral reasoning seems to work for them.
I was watching The Memorial golf tournament yesterday, and when W apologist announcer Jim Nantz started his insipid comments re: Va Beach shooting, I automatically recited Thoughts & Prayers. He immediately crossed me up with Prayers & Thoughts. Very creative, that one.
The gun just fired on its own? I guess guns DO kill people!
Impossible! Guns can’t just go off!!
Maybe new guns have AI? Seconds count when you are trying to stop a home invasion. Who has time to grab the gun and fire it? Guns that just fire on their own will save thousands of lives a year!
