    Before buying a gun one should have to answer the question; are you a maniac or not a maniac?

    Who stood their ground first? Don’t matter much when you’re buried under it. I’d rather be a good guy without a gun than a coward displaying my fear of humanity.

    Example #3-B looks to a target from your friendly neighborhood gun range. Blast away at both of them without a blot on your conscience.

    Either way, the safest place to be is at an NRA meeting

    And Open Carry isn’t even good for defense. If a mass shooter does come in, the Open-Carrier is the first one he’ll shoot. The “bad guy with the gun” always shoots first.

    What’s the difference between a regular ’merican and a patriot? One of them thinks an outdated document should not permanently justify the enabling of mass shootings to occur every week, and the other is the patriot.

    I would have to restrain myself from “Standing my ground” when one of these bully cowards is around. I might be tempted to take his head off before he might start shooting!

    Ok, true story. I’m walking out of a convenience store and see a guy coming towards me, and the store, with a gun. I feel threatened, he could be about to rob the store, I could be taken hostage. What do I do? Walk on by like he’s not there? Call 911? Stand my ground and shoot first? (no, I don’t carry a gun) Wait outside to be sure he’s not hostile? As far as I can see, the only way to tell a good guy with a gun from a bad guy with a gun is when one of them starts shooting.

    A while back I was shopping at the grocery store when I noticed a guy who had a holstered handgun. The thing was, he was wearing a pair of running shorts and had the gun holster tucked in them. I swear, at least twice the still-holstered gun fell out of his shorts to the ground. I didn’t stick around to see if it fell out a third time and fired.

    This is really weird, I have multiple packages of oreos in my home (kids and me). But not a single gun of any kind. What is wrong with me? Without the gun does that make me a pedofile or a sexual preditor. Only your ex president knows for sure. Governor Abbott would fail this test in a New York minute.

    If 3B is your mirror image, then you yourself must be left-handed. A lifetime of struggling with scissors has left you embittered against the world of healthy, sane right-handed people, and you’re about to crack. The safest thing is to turn the gun on yourself.

    For the rest of us, we should preemptively shoot all left-handed people we see whether or not they appear to be armed. There’s a sinister conspiracy at hand.

    Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994. Mass shootings dropped by 43%. In 2004 Bush and the GOP let the ban expire. Mass shootings went up 230%.

    Well, at least we won’t have any of those dastardly back-packs to frighten us!

    There’s only one safe, sane, logical, meaningful thing to do…stop eating Oreos.

    I had a hyper-realistic toy bolt action rifle when I was a kid. They were made for drill teams. I loved it. It was the closest I ever came to owning a firearm.

    Newly proposed lessons for grade schools in Texas and Florida-

    “How to evacuate the classroom through the windows.”

    “Pretending you’re dead so he won’t shoot you again.”

    “What to say to your Mom on the last phone call you’ll ever make.”
