Gun Legislation

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

If there's a fund to sue him, I'll be happy to contribute. Probably no real cause of action, but just fun to make his life more miserable.
excuse me if I have already posted this

cops in escambia county florida were chasing a suspect on foot during the middle of the night, when the spotted an overturned bucket near a closed window. they broke and entered the home, barged through the bedroom door and drug the sleeping couple into the hallway. while standing over the prone couple they used their boots to hold the couple down by the neck while one of the donut eaters went back into the room and shot their dogs (who had been growling aggressively).

The opps defense is still alive and well in Florida...even for teenagers who shouldn't have had a gun to start with. http://www.nbcnews.com/id/54556882/ns/l ... -tampa_fl/

Betcha the kid doesn't get charged, nor will whoever left the gun available to them. Between opps and SYG, it's gonna be even harder to charge somebody for shooting anybody in Florida. And now some idiot legislators want to officially legalize "warning shots."

Figures.
More proof that texting in a movie theater is bad.

Yeah it is but eating popcorn doesn't cause you to get murdered.

I read the article, then lost the link, but in an interview concerning his post-mayoral interests, former Mayor Bloomberg says he's going to continue to support causes and issues important to him, including obesity, education, and gun legislation. He said in addition to funding educational communications about guns, that he would support candidates who would support more gun-safety regulation. Asked if he could outspend the NRA, he said, "Oh, sure. And I'm not the only one funding this."
Gottaluvim, for that, even if you don't like him for stop-n-frisk or other stuff.

Let's hope when the expected bad guy gets to the bedroom, he's sleeping on his back in the proper position to whip out his shotgun. Any other position and he'd be a bit challenged getting it without turning his back on the intruder. Of course, for those who are always expected some "attack" from some evil source, the more exotic the response, the more "prepared" they feel. As to the guy with the gun tattooed in his belt, he's lucky he hasn't already been shot in a traffic stop or after a traffic camera finds him. Idiot.

In this Tuesday, March 18, 2014 photo, trooper Scott Duff trains his rifle toward the home of Michael Smith in Norridgewock, Maine. Officers descended on Smith's home after members of a tree removal crew he'd told to clear off his property reported that he had a gun.

Image

When tattoos are outlawed only outlaws will have tattoos.

From the comments: "Maybe the tree cutting crew would have felt safer if they were wearing tattooed bullet proof vests." :D
That man has reached the pinnacle of white trash. That's it, there can be no other. This man is king. Only thing missing is some ICP tats.

The fact that he only got half the gun tattooed earns him even more points.

Also if you look real closely on the left arm above the skull tattoo is what appears to be the Nazi party's eagle-n-swastika symbol.

So let's compare....a tattoo that looks like a pistol, and a pistol-type cigarette lighter pointed at a deputy....hmmm.

The guy's lucky to be alive.

Black guy would've been shot by some angry white guy with a gun and a tiny penis who claimed he "felt threatened" under SYG laws.

chances are most of the 911 calls were from the same teabaggers and rebunblicons who passed the insane geo. law. kinda like fox's obsession with reporting every instance of some kid getting kicked out of school for having an asprin or pulling a nail clipper

as happened here - they are shocked and surprised at the easily foreseeable (at least by thinking folk) consequences of their own actions

As I've said before, the fastest path to gun control is for Democrats to openly and loudly encourage non-whites to exercise the very same Second Amendment rights that the NRA calls for. The Republican Party/NRA would instantly become the party of strict gun control.

I suppose we/they should be relieved that a bunch of good ol' guys with guns didn't immediately confront this cracker and spark a gunfight with all those kids around. But I agree- they have some fucking nerve to look surprised.

Ah, Kennesaw. For the NRA it's an article of faith that since their gun law was passed there hasn't been a single murder there (not at all true) and that crime has dropped (true, just like the national average.) It's not even their first mass shooting since the law was passed.
