This Sunday, I read about all the GUN APPRECIATION DAY
rallies around the country and I am still puzzled as to what the fuck were
these people protesting!
No one is talking about taking their guns away or the right
for them to carry guns so WTF?
You would think that as “law-abiding” citizens, they would
want tougher background checks to keep guns out of the hands of people who
should never own weapons because they are threat to society; you would think
that these protesters would welcome action that would help keep their families
safer?
I did read a couple of “intelligent” comments on gun control
measures saying that the “real” problem with guns is the “illegal” sale and
distribution of guns; people should go to jail for illegally providing weapons
through an “illegal” sale.
I did get a kick out of reading about the rallies being held
around the country (600 were in Lansing, MI) and what the protesters had to say
because I still don’t know what they are scared of.
One Michigan protester said that this (whatever this is) is
a slow destruction of freedom. I assume he is talking about the freedom to own
guns which is not being threatened by anybody.
Protesters in Austin, Texas, home of some real wackos, held signs
that said “The Second Amendment comes from God” a real wacko statement. Another
sign said “An Armed Society is a Polite Society” ????
In New York, where their governor just signed some tough gun
regulations, one protester said “This is an outrage against humanity”. OK what
the hell does that mean? An outrage against humanity is the killing of innocent
children in Newtown; the idiot probably doesn't know what some words mean.
This whole issue is interesting but also depressing when one
sees all the people on the extreme and mind boggling edge of this issue.
