Meanwhile, about one toddler per day has been killed by an unsecured firearm over the past few weeks. But hey, guns are awesome! And if you want to look to an example of before-and-after gun control statistics, check Australia. Inevitably, ewer guns = fewer suicides, fewer murders, far fewer accidental deaths. The odds of actually stopping someone who aims to kill you from doing so by carrying a firearm are infinitismal, and far, far, far, FAR lower than the odds of an innocent child using that same firearm to kill or maim him or herself, or a third party. If you play the odds, and care about your family’s welfare, you are far more likely to protect your family from harm, statistically speaking, by refusing to purchase a firearm. That’s not an opinion. That is a fact.

Nothing scares an athiest more than when they’re facing the end, and have nothing to cling to.

That kind of follows Peter’s Principle of Politics #103: “There are no athiests during an orgasm.”

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Regards,
Peter H.

Texann, have no fear. Anything openly bad about the implementation of Obamacare will ultimately be delayed until after the election cycle. In fact, if they can pull it off, it will be delayed indefinitely until the Republicans manage to win an election, at which point it’ll be permitted to come crashing down and be their fault.

@The_Livewire (am I saying that right, I’m not a Twitter person), actually an equally geeky homemade D&D reference, no (intentional) relation to SF, and yes, you highlight the differences between what is “Legal,” what is “Right,” and what gives you a chance to be alive at the end of the day.

The correct action depends on the individual: as others said above, some people would prefer to be a criminal, and some people would prefer to be dead. An enlightened society would allow an option where one could be neither.

If a would-be attacker knows that there is a cop on every street corner, he’s going to be much less likely to attack you. That same logic applies if he knows you might be packing. Carrying a gun doesn’t protect you from him nearly as much as having the right to do so. That’s where liberals miss the point.

I really don’t know how people who have no faith in a higher power get through a disaster with their sanity intact.

These things happen. I’m not sure what is so unbelievable about a disaster that would make it impossible to get through for someone who isn’t religious. I’m not saying religious people don’t cope better, but I have no idea.

Sathar (Star FRontiers fan by chance?)

When it comes to being shot in the back, the phrase “Better Judged by 12 than carried by 6″ comes to mind.

Don’t worry. I’m sure anti-gay speech will be banned in New York soon, if it isn’t already. And whoever is responsible will surely be prosecuted more harshly than someone who commited the same crime against a non-gay person because of the thoughts in his head happened to be homophobic.

This one was literally close to home, since I live less than ten miles away, and nearly was on that street corner on that day (put off my errands for another day).

I know nothing about either of the victims other than what was reported, but I do have to wonder, if either had been legally carrying a concealed weapon, could the confrontation have ended differently?

Of course, that’s still only a piece of the problem. Here on my side of the river, even while possessing a firearm (which requires a permit effectively unobtainable by the common citizen without high level political connections), someone finding themselves in Mr. Carson’s position would still have a legal obligation to run away (and be shot in the back).

My condolences and sympathy to those hurt by the loss of Marc Carson. This should not have happened, and we are all diminished by it.

Any wonder that cities where it’s difficult if not impossible to own or carry a handgun lead in murder statistics?

– NYC,
– Newark NJ,
– Camden NJ,
– Washington DC.,
– Chicago
– Detroit.

Furthermore, “Too late.” The police are unable to prevent most crimes and arrive only only record what happened, after the fact. The guy already lives in a world where he has to be concerned with defending himself. He just doesn’t want to admit it.

Finally: If he does admit it, will he then kill himself? In other words, does he have a death wish?

One said, “I don’t want to live in a world where you have to be concerned with defending yourself.”

“Those who sacrifice liberty** for security deserve neither, and will lose both.”

(**Or its flip side: personal responsibility.)

Obamacare agent: Please tell me what is ailing you.

Obamacare patient: I’m suffering from chest pains and my headache that won’t go away.

Obamacare agent: Oh, our records show you attended a reading of the Constitution and once expressed disgust at Goverment spending in a letter to the editor.

Obamacare patient: So? What about my health problems.

Obamacare agent: Care is denied to domestic terrorists. You know, you aren’t looking very well. Are your affairs in order?

There’s a big element of cognitive dissonance associated with this man’s murder: as I understand it, the sick SOB who shot him to death is Hispanic.
Now, how on earth can we prosecute the shooter when, according to so many of the great thinkers on the left, he’s a member of a disadvantaged minority group that has suffered great injustices in this horribly unfair country of ours?

Or is there some pecking order amongst the victim groups?
Do gays trump Hispanics, the way ‘kings’ trump ‘jacks’ in cards?
Or is it the other way around?
Or, just maybe, gays and Hispanics are both ’9s’, but of different suits.

File under: things that make you go ‘hmmmm’.
Or: things that make leftist heads go ‘boooooom’.
