Colorado, gun control and the 2nd Amendment

Beautiful timing. Lady carrying gun stops mass murder. What a hero. Shows that everyone should carry a gun.

But if you think about it is extremely unlikely. I think the guy was killed deliberately to help the gun lobby.
Amazingly he supposedly opened fire in a car at a party and missed everything . Reminds me of Pulp Fiction. Pretty good effort for the lady to whip out her pistol and hit him multiple times. The guy was a known criminal also who deserved to die.

I don't believe a word of it.

Have you spent much time in the US? Quite common for someone to spray bullets from a car and not kill anyone. Shooting guns is like throwing punches, a lot of people do it to prove they are tough. It's not always about killing people.

Similar story related by a friend who was in the ADF and was in the USA on exchange. One of his American colleagues, as proof of it's OK with guns, showed him an article of a lady who shot some armed dude in a resturant who was attermpting to rob the patrons. He replied "But if the fruit cake didn't have easy access to firearms in the first place...." Apparently the conversation went all quiet after that.

What if the robber had a knife?

When is one of these nut jobs going to do us all a favour and march into a NRA meeting and let them have it big time.

Heavy security and a ban on guns in the conference, low life's on steroids.

Fascinating how Republicans place the rights of the demented to be able to buy guns over the lives of school children.

In the latest school killing, the 14 year old perpetrator is just 14 named "Colt".
His father is being charged also for allowing him to possess an assault rifle and lots of other things.

Gun culture- even named his son after one. Colt 45 came to my mind.
