Gun Control Update
As a practical matter, how is someone more dangerous with two guns than with one, unless ambidextrous?
President or Profiteer?
The person running the country has a highly responsible position and I feel has not lived up to the responsibility treated it as such.Using this poor excuse for a war as a blinder to bilk america out of billions of dollars daily.The president is profiting from our own people and keeping the toward-self wayward cash flow-flowing in his direction is considered to me to be criminal.The president is supposed to use his term as president,to act as a glorified salesman or charity host and generate money for the ecomony;"the American World";-not the family of Bush.The president is moonlighting as a oil tycoon and lots of other business ventures while supposeably running the country.No man has that much time to split himself so thinly and do a top notch job!!Now can you figure why this country is in shambles.When bush isnt president anymore he still wont have to pay taxes on all the billions be bilked from the company institution he imbezelled outright known as "The United States of America".Im not surprised about this article and wont be surprised if more come to light.I'm sure theres a criminal case to be made out of all this........But whos gonna challenge bush?
News Flash: Liberal Writer Uses Anecdotal Evidence to Spread Anti-Gun Bigotry
One anecdotal story, does not prove your general theory. What you fail to see is that gun control is useless. I am not arguing that guns solve all problems, but there is no doubt that they give one a better chance of surviving a vicious criminal's attack. I'm sure you can pull 20 anecdotal scenarios out of your rear where having a gun would make no difference, likewise I could pull 20 from the very same location to refute your 20. Do you remember when the Kleck and Gertz study was released, showing that guns were used about 2.5million times PER YEAR to defend and stop crime? Well Mr. Bill Clinton did not like this study and commissioned the department of justice (DOJ) to perform their own study using their own "unbiased" resources... What did they find? Guns were uses about 1.5 Million times PER YEAR for defense... (Ooops that one sure back-fired didn't billy-boy?). The DOJ even admitted to a flaw in their study; they didn't account for people that used a gun more than one time in a year for defense.. And when that group was included defensive gun uses rose to 4.7 MILLION uses PER YEAR. Just because your liberal newspapers don't sell when good uses of guns are printed doesn't mean that good uses don't exist...
