After every other mass shooting, gun-humpers ask for a moratorium on discussions about sensible gun legislation — ostensibly to give us time to mourn, but we don’t have time to mourn before the next gun tragedy comes barreling down the pike.
Tuesday’s shootings are part of a general rise in gun violence in New York. The suspect, who used smoke grenades prior to firing, also used a semiautomatic Glock to fire at least 33 times. As of this writing, the suspect was still at large, though a van purportedly connected to the suspect has been found. I’m going to guess, given the attention to this crime, that by the time you read this, more details will be available.
It sickens me how the misinterpretation of the Constitution gets floated in our faces each time there’s a mass shooting. Meanwhile, people are being killed every day by guns. It’s too damn easy to get a gun and too damn hard to get legislation to stop this.
The headline in today’s Hedgefund Courant along with the accompanying story of the NYC mass shooting illustrate we are falling deeper into the abyss! After Sandy Hook I thought we would see action but instead the families were assaulted by scum, think Alex Jones. I have little hope that sensible gun legislation will ever pass. I see ammosexuals parading around in their “God, Guns, Trump” tees and NRA camo hats…..sickening!
I want Alex Jones to live a long and fruitless life (which he will, if the past is prologue) and see the legacy he left for himself, and for his family.
Meanwhile in my gQp led city of Bristol they referred the matter of flying the rainbow flag to the ordinance committee. I can now sleep well tonite knowing the reins of government are in such capable hands!?!
Even in my town, the freedom for me but not for thee crowd is active. A small rainbow pride flag was stolen from a book display in the library. We, of course, then bought a great, big, honkin' flag to replace it but that doesn't substantially diminish the determination of some to decide what others may or, more accurately, may not do.
Maybe we should stop pretending that the second amendment has anything to do with an individual’s right to own guns
The word own does not appear anywhere in the second amendment
And the crowd that seems to be opposed to regulations of any kind conveniently skip over the first part of the second amendment
In order to maintain a well regulated militia
The GI Jokes I see parading around look anything but well regulated
That's a good point. The "well-regulated militia" part gets dropped off, always.

Waaay too easy. And yet, we barrel onto the next mass shooting, happening in 3, 2, 1...

Good Lord. Of all the things to worry about.

I so appreciate your response, though. Don't like my small flag? HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW??
