Sorry for your loss.

I also agree that there should be no concessions. Our approach should be well reasoned and tastefully presented. The hot head approach, million gun rallies and scaring soccer moms at the mall will not win this battle.

Very good article. For me, this is where our efforts should be concentrated. I recently spoke with an anti-gun co-worker who agrees that banning guns is not the answer. Banning guns is just a placebo to keep from addressing the issues of Violence in the home, inner city crime, mental issues and the "victim" mentality. I'm not advocating locking away people with special needs and mental issues, but I'm old enough to remember a time when we did. I believe that one of our societal issues is that we force feed people mind altering drugs, tell them that they are ok and then reintroduce into them into society before they have their act together. There has to be a better way.

I agree. I believe that there was an article in last sundays newspaper where they asked some female service members if they should be allowed to serve in the combat arms. I believe that they were nearly unanimous in their agreement that they enjoyed serving, but if I recall correctly only one wanted to be tested in combat.

Not being sexist, but men willingly give that power to women. How many times do you hear " if momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy"? Men are are compromising their values just to keep the peace. We may not want to admit it, but females are the primary reason that Obama has won two terms.

I don't encounter this behavior at work. It's a serious violation. I mostly see this behavior at the gun stores and sporting goods outlets. People are loud, ugly and wear it like a badge of honor even around women and small children. If you want an army to come against you, offend a large group of women with children.

Credibility and boogeyman stories can't exist in the same article. ;)

They aren't latino, they are tanned. It gets hot in Vicksburg.

Wow! I hate that I took the time to find out what either of them are. In my old man voice "those kids are crazy"!

Hello, and welcome to TGO.

I was hoping that this was a joke. Good grief!

I'm glad that you all didn't get caught up in that mess. I try to avoid going inside those places. I can't stand the begging from the moment that you open your car door.

He teed that one up. Very funny.

Good request and a breath of fresh air if you ask me. Continually behaving in the manner that David described is akin to the boys in the hood "keeping it real". It makes you a joke and no one takes you seriously.

The wallets not the problem. I need the time.

Dang! It's calling my name.

Very predictable. Thought it was just me.

Good idea. For some reason it was the first thing that I noticed when I read your NRA membership post. I just renewed a couple of weeks ago, but that lifetime membership is a bargain. I may put off a purchase this week and pick up one.

T Dawg didn't shoot up the theater or kill those babies. Comments like this are why the gun takers will have such a easy time achieving their goals. You can't be taken seriously when the left is pulling on heart strings and emotions while we are talking about T Dawg. Nobody cares about the boys in the hood killing one another, but incidents like the most recent that have occurred get attention because they happened to "normal" citizens. If we are to be taken seriously, we must do as others have said. Renew your NRA memberships, contact your reps and quit saying stupid stuff in public.

The Sparks VM wins with me everytime..

I'll second that.

I hear you. I remember that 1994 ice storm. It was ugly around here for a while.

Glad that you guys are safe. My wife won't read this, but situations like this are why I aways have a pistol by my side. I hope that this never happens to me.
