One of the young men that survived the most recent school shooting pointed out something (directed towards the NRA) I've been wanting to tell older nut jobs for a while now: We will outlive you.

Now I'm seeing way too many tweets saying that any teacher who doesn't want to learn how to use a gun should find a new profession and that we shouldn't trust anyone who watches our kids for 8 hours a day who can't use a firearm.

Cagle is running for Governor. Delta employs something like thirty thousand people in Georgia. I'm sure this will go according to plan...

Good to see more 'threats' being resolved ahead of time by family. A 15 year old had his Mom call the police after making a threat at the Shawsheen Valley Tech school on Snapchat. Apparently the kid held up a BB Gun in the video whilst making his threat.

The fucked up part about this is that Delta isn't "attacking conservatives". It's not even essentially attacking the NRA. It isn't a law that a company has to give a nonprofit organization or its members a discount just because it can. They can give and take that shit away any time they want. The fact that this douche considers this to be some kind of attack NOT ON AN ORGANIZATION BUT ON AN ENTIRE POLITICAL IDEOLOGY is -COMPLETELY-FUCKING-BONKERS-

Pay your fucking full plane ticket cost like a man, or just use taxpayer money which is probably what you do anyway.

The entitlement coming from the right lately is out of control when it comes to these NRA discounts.

When fat boy said he'd rush the shooter, he was talking about KFC's new "Loaded Mashed Potato & Gravy Shooterz."

I wish the media wasnt trying so hard to normalize the horrible give-teachers-guns theory.

Agree 110%. The fact that crackpot "idea" is being entertained by anyone makes my head want to explode.

Dick's Sporting Goods is removing the sale of assault weapons and raising the age of purchase to 21.

I'd be fine with raising the age to 21. Lots of places are raising the age to buy tobacco to 21, so why not go for an ATF triple header?

Why are drugs illegal? The argument that we shouldn't have gun control because "criminals will get them anyway" doesn't hold up when you apply it to other things.

Let's just take away traffic lights and speed limits! People are just going to disobey them, anyway!

People already blatantly jaywalk. Proof that people don't obey rules. Do away with them all!

As much as I like these restrictions (you know, actual gun CONTROL), I still think it's dumb to outlaw guns permanently. That'll just lead to the rise of the black market and only dangerous lunatics will reap the benefits.

Maybe I've been watching too many movies.

I call on schools to arm students. If a teacher knows he is walking into a school of armed kids, he'll think twice about shooting it up.

Just speaking generally on the gun issue and how the right uses excuses like "well ___ and ___ kills millions every year! let's ban that too!".

I got to this one before BZ (I made sure to read through all of his recent posts twice!):

https://www.npr.org/2018/03/01/590076949/depth-of-russian-politicians-cultivation-of-nra-ties-revealed

These revelations come amid news that the FBI is investigating whether Torshin, the deputy governor of the Bank of Russia, illegally funneled money to the National Rifle Association to assist the Trump campaign in 2016, McClatchy reported in January.

In a letter to Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., a member of the Senate intelligence committee, the NRA denied any wrongdoing and suggested the FBI is investigating Torshin, not the NRA. Neither the NRA nor Torshin responded to inquiries from NPR.

Investigations by Congress and the Department of Justice have revealed that the Russian government has sought to sharpen political divisions among American citizens by amplifying controversial social issues. Investigators have expressed concern about Russian links to the NRA, one of the most politically polarizing organizations in the U.S.

Guns aren't the problem! People kill people and other right rhetoric.
