    Default The Gun Control Mindset

    I may be preaching to the choir here, but this video (kinda cheesy setup) illustrates why it is near impossible to educate some gun control advocates. With closely-held views like those expressed by the majority leader of the Colorado House of Representatives, it becomes more clear why it is difficult for proponents of the Second Amendment to educate gun controllers in the hopes of finding common ground (see 7:10 into video).

    Key quote: "The thought that the only way we can protect ourselves is to wield our own weapon is completely adsurd, and an argument that I absolutely discount as frivolous. I have a very very hard time putting myself in the shoes of those who somehow feel that this is an abrogation of our rights or will lead to less public safety. It's an absolute fantasy."

    This video motivated me to donate, again, to both the Bernie Herpin and George Rivera campaigns.

    The new gal on KHOW talked about this idiot this morning. She wants her to come on her show and explain what she would use for self defense.

    I watched about 90 seconds of it, before I thought better of it. I'd rather not have an aneurism the Friday before a fun-filled 3 day weekend.

    Mandy Connell... oh yeah, she's a firecracker... I'll bet she could tear into some of these libtards we have in this state!
    I too couldn't finish that... but then again, you can't convince a cat he's a dog. Some people are just beyond help.

    I sat through 24 hours in the Judicial chambers listening to that bile in person......no wonder I'm drain bamaged.....

    It is far too easy for those that have never been in life critical situations to say "There is another way".
    For those that have been in a life critical situation to say "There is another way" well, you can't fix stupid.
    The most important thing to be learned from those who demand "Equality For All" is that all are not equal...

    You should have stood up and said this after that dumb lady spoke:

    My apologies for failing to provide warning that "Watching this video might be hazardous to your mental health"! Yeah, it made me cringe, so I felt like I had to share. You know, like taking a drink of sour milk and then passing the carton to your younger brother and saying, "Dude, this milk tastes awful. Here, try some and tell me how bad it really is."
