Second Amendment Rights!

We wonder why there is so much gun violence in this country.

Carefully avoided in the tragic killing of six people in Tucson, Arizona and the shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords is any discussion of gun control.  Barack Obama certainly doesn’t want to take on another adversary.  That would be the NRA.

Oh yes, we all have our second amendment rights!  Sarah Palin creating a map of Tea Party targets and placing a gun scope view over each person she wants voted out of office.  Sharron Angle, the Nevada Tea Party candidate who ran against Harry Reid said the public would bring down an out-of-control Congress with “Second Amendment remedies.”  Finally we have the Youtube video of Florida Republican Representative Allen West’s selection of fiery conservative radio talker Joyce Kaufman to be his Chief of Staff.

The politicians are more responsible for the their lack of solutions to the question of how to address the second amendment in the 21st century.  Just  shoot to kill your enemies is their answer.  Just listen to Senator Lamar Alexander on today’s “State of the Union”.  From Virginia Tech to the Safeway parking lot in Tuscon the killing will go on.  All bow to the NRA!!

  1. Jared Loughner did it all by himself.

    To suggest otherwise is deflecting blame and denying his personal responsibility.

    Try a little intellectual honesty instead of exploiting a tragedy by accusing and demonizing the other side of your false dichotomy left/right paradigm.

    This wreaks of political opportunistic rhetoric.
