No right is absolute. Free speech has the famous example of “Shouting fire in a crowded theater so as to create a panic” not being protected speech. How is walking into a public space with a firearm not the same as shouting fire in the era of mass shootings? There is no defense for this sort of conduct.
As a hunter, that argument makes no sense. When I go hunting, and then go to shopping, I leave the gun in the damn car, not parade it around a store. There is no legitimate reason to carry weapons into retail establishments.
When I see a guy carrying a gun in a field: hunter.
When I see a guy carrying a gun at a grocery store: gun nut trying to kill people
Why hunt with and AR-15 in the first place? The round is only 5.56mm equal to a .22/.222. That seems like a waste of money to shoot squirrels and chipmunks. I can kill the same critters with my .410 shotgun for a fraction of the cost.
Dude, seriously, you need to find a new word for your sneers. You have over used and abused moron. If anyone goes back over your post history, almost every single post contains the word moron. You don’t even try debate anything, you simply call everyone a moron. Give it a rest; try something new. I dunno, try rational debate?
this is a good cartoon it’s is funny, it has some truth behind it and who care what anyone like it or doesn’t like it. you can enjoy the art or look at a different one. I don’t care and I don’t care if you don’t care. if you hate something I would try to put you at at ease in your discomfort though..
Are police officers scared?I’d say most of them are crapping themselves. You couldn’t pay me to do their job, they deserve the highest respect. Ask them if they would prefer less guns in the public domain. -Would Obama move back to Chicago? If he’s sensible, only with an armed escort, I guess. But some will then sneer at him for using guns and say he should be the first former President without the Secret Service looking after him, as per obvious prudence for most world leaders.
The ACLU has made it impossible for Doctors to commit a person who is dangerous to him/herself and others. So now we have insane people who “refuse to take their medication” running around loose. Back in the 1950’s and 1960’s you didn’t have school shootings, or mass shootings because they locked up the people likely to do such things. Liberalism is not just stupid, it’s dangerous for everyone.

People who carry guns in public must be very very scared.

If only the University of Maryland had thought to have a gun club, perhaps this morning’s dispute could have been settled less catastrophically.

85% of global, personal use assault rifles are produced in the USA. If you truly want change then cut the head off at the source.

Mighty Mouse said, ‘People who carry guns in public must be very very scared.’
zoidknight replied, @Mighty Mouse:‘Or live in Chicago, Detroit, or Los Angeles.’
Mighty Mouse countered @zoidknight with : ‘So, why do they live in those places? It’s normal of people to move from war zones.’
ansonia asked of @Mighty Mouse: ‘Based on what scientific evidence?’
