Gabby Giffords: Expanding Background Checks Only the ‘First Step’

Actually, my city passed a tax on sugary drinks and it has raised $10 million for healthy foods and better education. They should honestly take it a step further and tax all sugary drinks including coffee/milk beverages.

A gun/ammo tax can be used for things that you like: Gun training and safety. I am guessing you are not opposed to that???

We already have that. It's called the Pittman-Robertson Act.

It really does not sound like his mother had any clue about the danger she put herself and others in. Why couldn't someone have sat her down and told her point blank that she needed to remove those guns from her home immediately? Don't gun ranges have lockers where she could have kept those weapons? Do we need to make laws to Protect us from such clueless individuals?

Until that fateful day, how could she or anyone know that Lanza was a danger?

Given that a militia consists of people bearing arms, regulating one would seem to encompass regulating the other.

The people are regulated. Murder is illegal. Attempted murder is illegal. Assault is illegal. So on and so forth.

Your friend Vance Mack thinks it is unconstitutional to demand someone to get a gun license before shooting a gun.

When I was a young man I did not need a licence. You see my father taught me everything I needed to know. No, you don't need a licence. So "my friend" is absolutely correct.

Funny how someone is "your friend" for having a similar political view. So I suppose with your views Joseph Stalin is "your firend?"

You want to talk about a dishonest and corrupt ideology.

Sure what did you want to add to the misguided view you need a license to practice a right?

What good is a safe if it isn't kept locked?

But you divert?

"Umm No he shot his mother dead with her own gun and there is no evidence of any "gun safe"."

Was there a safe or wasn't there?

Re-read your post.

I used to think of you as an annoying twat but your comment against a shooting victim crossed the line. You are a heartless vicious fool. Go ahead report me Coward. If you have any decency you will apologize. The fact no one else in this thread called you reflects there pathetic values. I am reminded of the quote "deep vengeance is the daughter of deep silence."

Some very sick people congregate this section of the forum.

people who want to harass and hassle honest gun owners and pretend that doing so will somehow deter people who don't care about a lethal injection, being shot to death by cops or armed citizens or doing LWOP in some supermax prison, are usually extremely dishonest as to their real motivations

Look at you be all tough and blustery because your ideas were correctlypointed out as ridiculous.

This is Gabby Giffords prior to the shooting.

Giffords.webp

Today, she is nothing more than a prop.

Your emotional tantrum is more embarrassing than the anti-gun lobbies use of her.
 
I ask once more. What the hell was the girl from Maryland doing at a political gathering in AZ?

Doesn't the model in her target look like an underage minority youth?

Or more likely, that's just the target the cops (one of whom has been removed from the photo) use at the range where they had invited Gabby to shoot.

Her and her dumbass stunt double husband went on a tear after the shooting with him dragging her around to TV shows with her being propped up and being fed small words she could say...it was truly sickening...especially in light of her gun owning past. Then to double down, her husband did his stupid displays where he showed how he, a law abiding citizen, respected astronaut for NASA, financial capable individual could walk into a gun store, fill out the paperwork, pass a background check, and....GASP...BUY A GUN.

Shocking...right?

who knows-I feel sorry for the man-before the shooting, he had -from all reports-a charming very attractive wife and after the shooting, she is a cripple with still serious mental and physical limitations. Maybe he's trying to overcome his loss by being a crusader.

I still freaking amazed that she survived at all. She's worked hard to get to where she is.
