Make sure to regularly check for testicular cancer, you just never know what might be in there.
This one has everything. Mentally unstable teenager kills his family. Parents and three siblings are dead. He allegedly used firearms his father bought from friends as private sales. Bonus points for the shout-out to Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty.
Yikes. I feel a little bad posting this now.
But, from the lighter side, even if teachers aren’t packing heat in the near future, they might have to learn to be Captain America.
I wonder if they initially went for adamantium claws for all teachers but scrapped the idea due to the need for surgery.

Learning to be Captain America would be a good idea.
Presently the people “chosen” to carry a weapon in public go thru stringent tests, psyche evals, and training. As a parent I want to think of teachers as wonderful stable people who calmly teach my child. But I also remember that as a teen I kept some teachers pretty close to the crashing edge. Arming THOSE teachers is a scary thought to me considering the thoughts that I am sure I put into their brains every hour they spent with me.
Two men opening fire on each other. Sounds like a deal of some kind went bad.
Hey, that company’s in Pocomoke City! Friendliest town on the Eastern Shore.
Things like this really make me question the basic underpinnings of our civilization. We don’t need gun control, we need monster control.

Now this is interesting:
A massive boycott sparked by the NRA and other gun-rights groups outraged that the nation’s largest outdoors show banned the exhibition of assault weapons has caused the show’s organizers to abruptly cancel the week-long event in Harrisburg, Pa.
This is, in every way, false. I’m usually not privy to how these things go because I don’t really follow the industry, but I’ve been getting enough links through Facebook to watch the progression of this issue. First, the boycott wasn’t organized. Over the last few weeks smaller and then larger industry members decided to pull out. There wasn’t outrage, just a calm explanation that the decision to ban certain types of guns from the show wasn’t something the makers and users of those guns could support. The NRA never even came into it. There was no “sparking,” the NRA was one of the last to cancel.
I think the NRA is more of a boogeyman for the left than a force for the right at this point. This might also answer the occasional cry of “why does the NRA have so much power if it only has 4 million members?” It probably doesn’t. Gun owners in general, however, do.

Well the government and media cant chalk it up to basic laws of commercialism.
And they cant give the impression that its democracy acting at its basest level.
Everything has to be blamed on unions, corporations, and too-powerful organizations.
Joe Biden must read QT3. From an AP article about a Google Plus chat:
Vice President Joe Biden says he’s more concerned about limiting the number of rounds in a gun magazine than about banning assault weapons that account for a small percentage of gun deaths.
Feinstein is probably blowing a gasket right now. It’s not the best time to admit this when she just unveiled her new AWB. Someone will have to give him a stern lecture.
He says that if the shooter at the elementary school in Newtown, Conn., had had fewer rounds and had to change clips [check yo’ clip, bitch!] more often, he might have been slowed enough to save at least one child’s life.
I want to know who told him this. How did he find this out? I’m astounded at the lack of technical ignorance. Are we sure he was the one answering these questions during the online chat?
Note that spree killers have no problem bringing lots of magazines with them. They’ll have plenty of rounds. But I’m still amazed he heard anything realistic about the effect of added reload time.
Biden says he supports a ban on assault weapons, though he acknowledges they don’t account for a large portion of gun deaths in America. He says a ban would solve part of the gun violence problem, particularly for police who can be outgunned by criminals with assault weapons.
This, however, is probably my least concern in the entire universe. Every police force in the country gets a little more militarized each year. They’ll have no problem outgunning anyone, especially after the SWAT team rolls up in the APC. This isn’t Mexico.

Really? Have you ever seen anyone change clips? In real life? not a movie or a game.
If someone in front of you, probably untrained and unpracticed, is changing a clip… what would you do? I rather like the idea of having that chance.
Which spree killers were those?
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Well I dont remember too many of them having military training so I mean “less than movies and games” efficiency. And many had their clips in bags. I have military training and even my changing a clip would be a chance for someone.
I dont know if someones choice would be attack or flee or grab their cell phone or whatever. But it still sounds like something more than “it wouldnt mean shit so why bother”. Not saying I like the law things, I just think the arguments could be better.
