Dumber than Dirt. This. I think instead they should pass a bill that requires everyone to carry at all times, everywhere. That way, every whacko would know that he was going to face stiff opposition to any crime he plans to commit. Even the dumbest souls can figure out that if everyone they see can kill them, committing a violent crime will not work out well. |

So fucking stupid.
An armed society is a polite society. When are these liberal fucks going to understand that mankind is violent. Man has been violent since creation and it ain't gonna change. You best be armed if you want to survive. Stupid little-minded liberal fucks don't have a fucking clue. They need to get a fucking clue and open their pea fucking brains. I swear these motherfuckers live in damn bubble. Fuck, fuck, fuck, so fucking stupid!!! If somebody was armed at that event, they could have ventilated that motherfucker before he killed anybody else.

If this law was enacted before obama was elected or the health care town halls all those people we saw dragged out of them for asking the Dem's questions they didn't want to answer would still be in prison if they happened to be armed. |
