   I assume assault rifle sales are up right now. Folks trying to get ’em while they can.

   Ouch! Good cartoon. There are plenty of commenters here who love their guns more than they love their children.

   Do you really believe that?. Even I’m not that cynical.

   Yes, there are. They will leave guns out in the open, loaded, no trigger guard, completely free for anybody to take and use! Any ‘parent’ who thinks so little that they knowingly endanger their childrens’ lives is an a-hole who loves guns more than children.

   Sadly, yes. They are out there.
   Of course, probably 99% of NRA members are safe, responsible gun owners, recreational shooters and hunters, but there are still that 1% of the loonies that we need to be scared of.

   @masterskrain

   And that 1% are ones who were banned from most gun ranges and kicked out of the NRA.

   As opposed to the nutcases called liberals who passed laws in some states that require people to seek shelter in a safe room of flee their homes if someone breaks in and tries to rob the place or kill the family?

   your right I was reading some where that there are more crimes stopped with guns then done with guns. With the way some of these people they will want to take cars away they kill a heck of a lot more people than guns.

    When guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns.

    your statement is probably not true and it is inflamatory. more accurate would be to say:
    
    ‘they love their guns more than they love other peoples children’

    Funny how many opponents to sane gun laws automatically assume control means to take away all guns. No one is suggesting that.
    
    I grew up in a household of gun owners. Some of my closest friends are avid hunters. I’m all for responsible, law abiding citizens owning a hand gun or hunting rifle, but there is absolutely no sane reason the average citizen needs the kind of guns used in most of these mass shootings. It’s insane. Cut the bull s**t and lets do something sane and meaningful for a change.
    
    I also advocate a law requiring any registered gun owner who fails to report a stolen gun be charged as an accessory before the fact in any crime in which their stolen gun was used in.

    masterskrain: You are an optimist; the harmless gun nut contingent is more likely between 50 and 60%. The leadership only wants to overthrow the Constitution and go to a military dictatorship. I encountered the leaders back in the ‘60s, recruiting in the Boy Scouts’ adult leaders, to participate in their plan of door to door genocide if the Dallas ghetto had erupted. Their slogan was “and best of all, those commies in Washington are providing the ammunition!” (the American Marksman program of the Nazi Revolutionary Army and Pentagon), the ammo being hoarded for their violent overthrow. The “harmless gun nuts” will provide pressure on politicians now and cannon fodder come the revolution.

    I agree with ARodney, he’s absolutely right.

    When brains are outlawed (should, galaxy forfend, the tea party gets into power), only outlaws will have brains.
