    Good advice. Our gun rights are under constant attack from Marxist politicians and their allies in the media, so it's more important than ever to protect our Second Amendment rights. With billionaire fascists like Michael Bloomberg spending millions to gut the Second Amendment, it's very important to support gun rights organizations like the NRA and Gun Owners of America.

    :clapping: Yes! The answer to too many guns in the hands of nut cases is more guns on the street and in homes. What a wonderful suggestion.

    How often does the left lecture us on not judging the majority by the actions of a few?

    I'm not a christian but I have been armed for most of my life. Long before it was legal to carry a weapon and I have come very close to having to use a fire arm for protection. If I went to church I would carry my weapon. Now that we have legal carry laws in Texas I take a hand gun everywhere I go. I guess that is why we don't see a lot of muslims going after our christians in Texas.

    I expect that they will start attacking christians and who ever around the country once 0bama has the population of islamo terrorists at a high enough level but they will start in California and NY and that will be bad news for our Texas islamo dogs.

    HMMM......didn't your buddy Joe Biden suggest a double barrel shotgun? Or was it a pump shotgun? And didn't he say to step outside and fire off a barrel or 2???

    - - - Updated - - -

    Everybody (with a sound mind and NOT fearful of them) should consider owning a gun.........
    In case you haven't noticed, this world has NOT gotten any better, guns or not!

    Only a true liberal would scoff at that notion......

    Are you ready to have your liability insurance to increase by 175%?

    Or, having armed security guards at banks have not stopped bank robbers. Have they?

    How can anything stop any shootings if the NRA owns the GOP Congress and discussions are not even allowed on the subject? Most people support background checks at least, but the GOP little (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)cats are scared of the gun lobby.

    It's a stupid suggestion if the Governor is not also willing to point out that gun in the house can also increase the chances of injury
    or death to family members with the improper use of said gun.

    I support the right to own firearms. But this idea that guns are panacea for all problems and the glamorization of guns is just insane.

    He's most likely on the NRA payroll.

    Will the Governor allow armed Christians to enter the Statehouse?

    You don't see Muslims going after Christians in places without conceal carry. In the US you're far more likely to be killed by a right-wing extremist than by a Muslim.

    That is EXACTLY the thing to do. There have been enough murders of unarmed victims who bought into the lie that government will protect them. In fact, government wants people to be like sheep easily slaughtered.

    Actually, the are "FREE KILLING ZONES" for which the government is assuring would-be murderers the government is protecting their right to murder without fear of opposition.

    Who is responsible for the most recent mass killing is the college in its PUBLIC policy that no students are allowed to be able to defend themselves.

    That's a ridiculous statement. In any event if the US government decided to slaughter civilians it would be over very quickly. A bunch of fat survivalists running around in the woods in Michigan or Texas wouldn't have a chance.

    Jesus would be so proud of his followers

    Matthew 7: 22 On judgment day many will tell me, 'Lord, Lord, we prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.' 23 But I will reply, 'I never knew you. Go away; the things you did were unauthorized.

    James 3: 1 Dear brothers ..., not many of you should become teachers in the church, for we who teach will be judged by God with greater strictness. 2 We all make many mistakes

    Newsflash... An estimated 40% of all firearms sold in the U.S. are transferred by unlicensed/private sellers. You know that little itty bitty gun show loophole thingy.

    There are, but not in every state for all sales. That is the loophole that needs to be closed.


    Edit: HA! Sorry Peppermint Twist! I was typing when you posted.
    Didn't mean to be repetitive.

    There is no "gun show" loophole... Straw purchases are already *gasp* illegal.

    Perhaps actually go to a gun show and you would learn something. Aka get out of the Progressive bubble and enter the real world.
