What I read in what was posted is pretty typical of anti-gun libs -

“_I_ can’t be trusted with a gun, so no one else can be either.”

She’s not straddling the line between responsible and idiot, she’s an idiot.

From the time they were little I’ve given my kids unloaded guns to play with after explaining to them the dangers and setting up the rules. I got their gun curiosity all out of them. If you make it a taboo, then they’ll have it in mind all the time.

I would haul them out, let them play with them as long as they wanted. Eventually, they tired of touching and holding them. As they got big enough we’d go shooting. They knew that a gun is a tool, neither good nor bad.

Of course, liberals are control freaks, so liberty is out of the question.

Interesting how liberals moralize the inanimate, like guns or profits.

On the other hand, an unborn baby is inanimate - a blob of tissue with no value or moral aspect.

If it ever existed is the key here. Some ‘friend’ melted the Glock down for her...so it wouldn’t be used in a crime.

She’s dumb or a liar or both.

There's sooo much about the story she spins that doesn't "smell right". But, to bring it up in her venues (the Ms. blog, whatever the other one was) would be considered "threatening", probably.

It’s about as believable as a love affair between George Soros and Sarah Palin.

This is one activity where you can never say “This is a drill. This is ONLY a drill”.

How about 'scrimmage'?

Or 'a workout' with a partner?

Maybe 'undress rehearsal'?
