How dare I make light of such a serious matter?
All right.
If I’m making light of it, then what are the political left and the media (but I repeat myself) doing everything they jump from a school shooting onto the gun control bandwagon? If demanding the banning of a deadly item immediately after its use isn’t a serious proposition and it needs to stop . . . you first.
This is why schools shouldn’t be gun-free zones. Who knows how many would be dead today in Great Mills, Maryland if not for the good guy with a gun who put an end to Austin Wayne Rollins’s intended massacre?
BELLEVUE, WA – The Second Amendment Foundation today announced a project to help students who have been harassed, intimidated or bullied for resisting peer pressure to join the wave of protests against guns and the right to keep and bear arms.
There are many Gun Confiscation people who think that they are somehow guilty for killings at schools. They even think they must do something/anything to stop the shootings at those schools. They were not the shooters, they were not guilty of killing anyone but they feel that they must do something because they failed to do anything before that would have eliminated the killings.
I can’t think of a single time when it’s benefited a company to abandon sound business principles in favor of political posturing. Is certainly didn’t help Target. It hasn’t helped Starbucks. And it didn’t take long for Dick’s Sporting Goods to realize it’s decision to pander to the gun grabbers would exact a serious price:
Dick’s Sporting Goods reported disappointing holiday sales numbers in part due to weak demand for one-time hot brands like Under Armour.
BELLEVUE, WA. – Seattle’s “gun violence tax” revenue has once again failed to meet predictions, demonstrating once again that this was really a thinly disguised gun control scheme that was sold to the public as an effort to reduce so-called “gun violence,” the Second Amendment Foundation said today.
In the wake of 5-time illegal immigrant Jose Ines Garcia Zarate’s acquittal in the murder Kate Steinle, the country was split into two camps. The first, correctly, saw the verdict as yet another grotesque, unconscionable miscarriage of justice in America’s worst state. The second looked the other way so it could keep banging the pro-sanctuary city drum.
WASHINGTON, March 15, 2018 /Standard Newswire/—Judicial Watch today released Broward County Sheriff’s Office training and operation materials that specifically dictate that the first one or two officers on the scene of an active shooter incident “will immediately go to confront the shooter.”
This is what happens when you ascribe absolute moral authority to people too young to remember to make their beds or brush their teeth consistently. The more they hear how they’re beyond criticism no matter what they do, the more likely you are to get . . . this:
The really infuriating thing about this is not that he offers a lame explanation. It’s that he offers none to speak of. If he’d said, gosh, we get so many tips and we whiffed on not picking this one out as a serious one, at least you’d have a sense of what went wrong.
Dick’s and Dunkleberger’s have decided the 2nd Amendment contains a hitherto unknown age restriction on the sale of rifles. In the future only customers over the age of 21 will be able to buy a scary–looking long gun in those stores.
BELLEVUE, WA – Since the tragic mass shooting at a Florida high school last month resulted in efforts to restrict firearms ownership by young adults, the Second Amendment Foundation has experienced a 1,200 percent increase in the number of 18- to 20-year-olds joining or supporting the organization, SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb reported today.
As one of the millions of teachers in America I know there is one thing I don’t ever want to be…a fish in a barrel.
Think of the hero teachers who’ve thrown their bodies in front of students taking bullets fired by mentally deranged mass murderers.
There are two sides to every story, but that doesn’t mean the first one you hear is necessarily incorrect. I was intrigued when erstwhile Broward County Sheriff’s Deputy Scot Peterson came out with his side of the story, via his lawyer, as Sheriff Scott Israel went all-in scapegoating Peterson for what happened at Stoneman Douglas. Peterson weaved a tale that appeared far more complicated than the initial story that he simply stood outside and did nothing while the carnage was progressing inside, and it hinged crucially on his claim that, at first, he thought the shooting was going on outside.
BELLEVUE, WA – The Second Amendment Foundation and Illinois State Rifle Association have filed a lawsuit in federal district court challenging the East St. Louis Housing Authority’s (ESLHA) ban on firearms possession by residents of government subsidized housing in that community.
One of the ways you know an idea is powerful is when you see its opponents twisting and completely misrepresenting it. A classic example is when Democrats label every Republican tax proposal as a “tax cut for the rich.” It doesn’t matter if that’s an accurate description of the idea (it almost never is). The point is to label the idea in such a way that it sounds too ridiculous to even discuss.
During his nationwide ‘Don’t Blame Me’ Tour, Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel told the Miami Herald he was unable to arrest the Parkland school shooter prior to the attack because “his deputies were legally ‘handcuffed.’”
Sheriff Fife should know, since he personally bought the handcuffs.
The Valentine’s Day massacre at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida was the latest in a series of mass school shootings dating back to the Columbine, Colorado shooting in 1999. Evoking shock, these tragedies inevitably prompt a call to pray for the victims and their families.
“We don’t want to take your guns.”
“No one’s coming for your guns.”
“We respect the 2nd Amendment.”
