Pretend Gun Control

Pretend Gun Control. “For instance, the ‘gun-free’ school zone is a victory in disarming people in the same way that getting all countries except North Korea and Iran to destroy their nuclear weapons would be a victory in nuclear disarmament.” “Something” must be done and that something will not work anyway so let’s ban something that doesn’t exist and declare “problem solved.” Sounds like the perfect solution for today’s sound-bite-driven low-information society.

  • We must ban nuclear tipped child seeking bullets now!!!! Dems if we concede to this ban will you shut up for a couple of months?

  • Abolish the gun free zones and let CCW holders in the schools and other locations. Its funny to hear people talk in banks, schools, hospitals and other places what they would do if someone was armed and came in, while someone is armed and standing right next to them. My weapon is nicely concealed and easily accessible. While all those chattering about not wanting to be near a gun.

    • Most of the mass shootings at schools seem to have come AFTER the "Safe Schools Act" was implemented. Again, liberalism generating the EXACT OPPOSITE of it's stated intent.

  • The liberals are just trying to make it easier for "Dear Leader's" people to redistribute the wealth.

  • I am still waiting for to get my hands on the Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range that was predicted in Terminator.
