19. Who is this us?

"I didn't see 'US GOVT' on the drone anywhere"
seriously? Predator drones are becoming as iconic a representation of the US as Uncle Sam. They are not known for dropping water balloons.

"You consider that man a decent law abiding citizen?"
What is he doing that is illegal?

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." -First Amendment to the Constitution

Nowhere does it say we have to agree with the words being spoken.

"Shouldn't you be joining us to encourage this man to seek psychiatric help"
Who is this us? Gun control proponents often state it is not mental illness, or else the gun is the cause of the mental illness. I haven't seen any encouragement to seek psychiatric help. You may recall these suggestions
we have a right to protect ourselves against gun toting idiots.

he should have broken his damn arms.... {white man attacking a black man}

I say shoot them on sight , just to be safe. No sane person would carry a rifle around a grocery store. Only the insane and the criminally motivated. So, again, I say shoot them on sight, let their bodies rot in the streets as a message to other hell-bent gunners.
Nothing but good could come of this.

I have often wondered about that, it should be assumed that they are potential terrorists
Maybe if a few of these jackasses get taken down maybe some of the others stop being such assholes.
Gun owners in general are cowards, one or two times should be enough to have them cowering under their bed.
