Qoutes from Huffpo today
Anyone find it curious that the "worlds greatest purveyor of violence in the world today" is attempting to severely restrict and eliminate legal, civilian firearm ownership?
Quoted section is from MLK speech "Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence"
Statistically in those same 7 weeks 48,500 people died from eating too much (obesity) 25,000 people died as a direct result of medical malpractice, and 4500 from car accidents, 5200 people died from accidental poisoning, 3240 people died from falling down in their own house.
I am more scared of doctors than I am guns lol.
In time of actual war, great discretionary powers are constantly given to the Executive Magistrate. Constant apprehension of War, has the same tendency to render the head too large for the body. A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty. The means of defence agst. foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home. Among the Romans it was a standing maxim to excite a war, whenever a revolt was apprehended. Throughout all Europe, the armies kept up under the pretext of defending, have enslaved the people.
~ James Madison, 4th president of the United States

Gun Violence Hearing (Because humans don't cause violence)
APUFAN_CBS says:Why would we ever seek logical gun violence solutions when we have the emotions to pull on?
Our government doesn't give a rats ass about kids:
U.S. drones are killing children and terrorizing families abroad. Earlier this year, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism found that 176 children have been murdered in Pakistan alone. And along with drone attacks, an average of 4.8 children are killed per day in Afghanistan where earlier this year, a U.S. sergeant is reported to have killed 9 children.
MCLOVIN22 says:Do something that will make a difference. Taking away guns from law abiding citizens is like adding more gun-free zones. For example, the Lone Star University gun shooting a few weeks ago was a gun-free zone. A lot of good it did. Stop passing stupid legislation that does nothing to solve the problem.reply
NYYTMAN024 says:Yes end the violence which should include all of Obama's drone strikes that are not just killing "terrorists" but also innocent people including children. But no one cares b/c it's not on our soil!
TELLINGDATRUTH says:Yes, it is all the fault of an inanimate object. So by the Logic that Giffords is using. it is the fault of Fork, spoon, and knives companies that fat people are obese in America. I mean they are also using a tool, and they are dying too. So using the exact same logic that it is the tools fault and not the human that is controlling it, oh and since we all know that guns magically kill people with out any human intervention then Forks, spoons, and knives should be banned as well as they kill people by making them fatter.
BAN FORKS, KNIVES, SPOONS, LEGOS, HOTWHEELS, CARS, DISTRACTED DRIVING PARENTS, and DWI. They have killed more kids in 1 year then the amount of kids died by gun shot in the last 20. I see how Giffords and the insane right wing think their argument is valid.reply
