Well, duh! Even among the gun-haters the first people they call when someone starts shooting is the police.....that's right, the guys with the guns. They don't call 911 and ask for a psychologist to come and find out why this individual is behaving like this. They want guys with guns to come stop the carnage.
So many in his administration are bailing-not uncommon. But when it is the people who have been subpoenaed to testify in Congressional committee it sure looks suspicious. Hillary, EPA chief....

The Republican theme there should be... Hasn't having Kennedys (plural) in government for decades what brought us to this fiscal debacle we find ourselves in? Spend spend spend. Only JFK had the right idea about cutting taxes to raise revenue. Talk about ancient history.
" without resorting to physical or verbal assault?" Excuse me but it appears to be the liberals who rant and rave and ignore the facts when it comes to a discussion on guns. Conservatives have facts on their side: gun laws don't constrain the mentally ill intent on doing harm. They will find a way to get illegal weapons or just use a different method to inflict harm. Gun-free zones are prime targets for those intent on killing others en mass. In just about all instances of mass shootings the shooter, when confronted by someone with a weapon to stop him, chooses that moment to kill himself. The threat of someone shooting him stops the attack. How many more students would have been killed if the police had not shown up on the scene?
Yes, don't forget that a school is a "gun-free zone" so a shooter can be confident that his intended victims are all unarmed and vulnerable. Perhaps if teachers had been permitted to carry a self-defense weapon, the shooter could have been stopped before an entire kindergarten class was obliterated. Gun laws don't stop the lawless.
The person wielding the weapon (of any kind) is at fault. Not the tool. We need to know if he obtained the weapon legally? Was he competent? (His brother speaks of mental illness in which case he should not have received a gun permit.....if indeed he had one). Perhaps his education (in public schools?) taught him something about not respecting a person's individual right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness.? A gun just lying there on its own does not kill.
EXACTLY! Someone might ask the embarrassing questions about what the OTHER 30 some-odd witnesses who were rescued from the Benghazi Consulate have to say. Who are they? Where are they? What did they see or hear? Why are they being silenced? And why weren't they and their first-hand accounts brought to light BEFORE the election?
Neal has been on the radio for 42 years warning us about these politicians. And if you listened closely you would have heard him warn, years ago, about government plans to seize IRA's and 401K's to shore up Social Security (with a promise of a guaranteed annual payout). You wouldn't own your money any more and couldn't leave it to your heirs. Clinton suggested this too.Obama's people are looking into doing this too. Problem is Republicans can't bring themselves to get groups like ACORN to pay people and bus them to the polls.

This is the clearest explanation I have ever read of why we are in this situation (mixing church and state) and how we can extricate ourselves from it so that no one has rights removed from them .
This Moran kid has a great future ahead in politics. Most Democrats have to already be in elected office to get away with this. Surely he is destined for greatness.
Actually the word that should be used to depict today's Big Government involvement in even the most intimate parts of our lives is FASCISM, not socialism. Fascism is private ownership of the means of production but intense involvement by rules and regulations of those businesses. When government provides you with your birth control(talk about government in the bedroom!!) it also has the right to deny you your birth control. See how that works? Give up freedom and you lose it forever.
