Gun Control on a Military Base? Uhh....
« on: November 11, 2009, 01:29:19 AM »

Mayor Daley from Chicago blaming guns....

http://biggovernment.com/2009/11/10/chicago-mayor-daley-blames-fort-hood-on-americas-love-of-guns/

On Monday, Chicago Mayor Daley blamed the Ft. Hood Jihad Massacre on America’s love of guns!

“Unfortunately, America loves Guns. We love guns to a point where that uh we see devastation on a daily basis. You don’t blame a group.”



The Mayor is using a straw-man argument that conveniently provides him with an opportunity to politicize the terrorist attack as part and parcel with America’s love of guns.

Mayor Daley, and other politicians, like to blame gun violence on the guns themselves because that is so much easier than admitting any inconvenient (politically incorrect) truths which might be revealed if they were to place blame where it belongs.

Kids murdering each other in the inner city? That’s because of guns, not the War On Drugs which turns poor children into black market drug distributing gang members.


Islamists murdering people while shouting Allah Akbar? That’s because of guns, not the Jihad being perpetrated globally against all so called “infidels”.

They blame guns because guns don’t vote.

Taking Mayor Daley at face value for a moment, is he seriously arguing for increased gun control on a military base? If there had been more guns around, this ticking Jihad bomb could have been put down a lot faster than he was.

It's kind of hilarious because he sounds like such a moron that he's actually on our side.

I wonder how Mayor Daley would deal with the situation in Kennesaw, GA?

I want an AA12: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhstuvzMiB0&feature=related

I agree with the comments: "A beautiful weapon."

Oh yes.  AA12's are SWEET.

I could settle for a Saiga 12 though...

The same way all politicians deal with reality that disagrees with their fantasy world of total control:

By ignoring it.

One of the dumbest things ever.  :x

Plus they already had a soft policy on not carrying guns except in designated areas - which prolonged the shooting, obviously.

Which might be a good thing.  Prudeness aside, Muslims seem to violate people's freedoms far less than the socialists...
