Oregon has concealed carry. What happened to all those good guys with guns who are supposed to stop this sort of thing?
Just a few days a ago and man’s car was being hijacked by, of course, a bad guy who, of course, was unarmed. Two armed good guys, of course shooting it up, came to the rescue. Trouble was, they shot the carjacking victim, of course accidentally, in the head. Since they collected their shell casings and skedaddled the nature of the accident remains unclear: was the victim mistaken for a jacker? was he shot by a stray bullet, or did the good guys just get carried away? So much for the good-guys-with-guns theory.

If you gotta carry, please carry it out in the open so we can see your prized toy, laugh at your paranoia and avoid your company.
M' Main Man B H Obama showed perfect timing to alert the masses to the danger of guns lying around,
Democrats alone will not solve the gun problem, you need both parties to get on board with this.
This isn't a gun problem, it's an American problem, and Americans are going to have to point the finger at ourselves to solve it. Not point fingers at Republicans.
Right on, the Democrats are on board with that. But pointing at ourselves won't do the trick. The republicans need to get on board too.
If the President's name was O'Bama, he might be able to turn a few Repulicans. Butt alas: We all know that he's a Muslim from Kenya who wants to disarm all the "right thinking" consealed patriots so he can give the country to ISIS, & the nuclear arsenal to Iran.
I get that American's as a whole don't like their Governments curtailing their personal freedoms. I get that you don't like "Big Government". I simply don't get how it's right for ordinary citizens to own automatic weapons (wtf!). Isn't the reference to the constitution and its right to bear arms fallacious as it ascribes that right to organised militia and not Joe Public? You have managed to alter your constitution in the past - your managed to sort out the Three-Fifths issue - so why can't you see common sense and do the same with gun control?
You got us all wrong. Actually we like big government. We encourage government to get involved in women’s reproductive decisions. We’re disappointed when the government doesn’t stand between a gay man and his domestic partner. We hate when the government doesn’t fix the pothole in front of our house. We petition the government to prevent Mosques from establishing themselves too close to the site of the 9/11 memorial, or too close to Kentucky. Half the Republican party is so geriatric they’re on medicare. The other half is so diabetic they’re on disability. And they love it. They demand on big signs: “Keep Your Government Mits Off My Medicare.” We like when FedEx hands our packages off the the Post Office so we don’t have to be home to sign for them when they’re delivered by the government. (Also if FedEx had to come to our podunk towns in the middle of nowhere to deliver our packages, they just wouldn’t do it). We want the government to put pot smokers, meth-heads, heroine addicts and other junkies in jail. We love the tax loopholes and protections government provides billionaires, ‘cause any day, now anyone of us could win the lottery. We want the government to build more jails. Our towns compete for them. We want the government to build a giant wall on our southern border (and perhaps mine the coasts - I really don’t know what we’ll do about the coasts). We want the government to bomb the shit out of Iran, smack Putin, oust Assad. There ain’t no end to what we want the government to do for us.
What we hate is the Constitution. We don’t want atheists expressing their beliefs in the public square, especially at Christmas. We want the government to endorse Christian values for no other reason than they’re Christian values. We have no problem with the use of government bodies and investigatory commissions to persecute individuals for political gain. We interpret the shit out the Second Amendment because we don’t like the strong suggestion there that gun ownership is not a individual right. We hate the protections provided to minorities provided by the 14th Amendment. We hate Birthright Citizenship as guaranteed by the 14th Amendment. We’re talking about getting rid of that - somehow.
What we really love is shoot-’em-ups, good guys puttin’ away bad guys and toys that promise we can all be heros but in the end can only deliver bullets.
Take a bow. That was excellent ... :D
