Gun safety debate is B.S. (NRA "worthy of firing squad," Palin "half-wit half-term quitter")

Well argued.

A problem for the Progressives is that they do not like people or freedom. SO they loathe the Constitution.

They can’t say so in so many words, so what they do is swathe it in laudatory words and phrases of respect and then bundle it out of the conversation as quickly as possible.

Here it is. The NRA advocates armed rebellion against the duly elected government of the United States of America. That's treason, and it's worthy of the firing squad. The B.S. needs a serious gut check. We are not a tin pot banana republic where machine gun toting rebel groups storm the palace and depose the dictator.

The NRA does not advocate armed rebellion against the constitutional government of the United States of America, and neither do I. However, the Second Amendment is there for the security of a free State - to prevent tyranny or to enable armed rebellion against tyranny, should that blight ever arise in our country. In the event of tyranny, I join with many NRA members in advocating for the restoration of constitutional government, in accordance with the written supreme law of the land and with our oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.

Normally, I am a peaceable man, but in this case, I am willing to answer the call to defend the country. From them.

Those that advocate tyranny always use this type of reasoning.

As for being in the mainstream, Mr. Journolist professor, you are way the hell out of it.

Whoa! We have an angry liberal here who didn’t get his way so he throws stones and pouts. Rather than writing a piece that actually takes a little brain-power he carries on like a little kid throwing a tantrum. Talk about making one’s self look like an idiot!

Here’s the e-mail address of the W. Page Pitt School of Journalism and Mass Communications...

Are you sure it's not the W. Rivers Pitt School of Journalism and Mass Communications?

It would be a joke except that this professor is poisoning the minds of the next generation of voters and leaders.

To the NRA:

The NRA will LOSE! Why?

Answer: Because the NRA focuses on immediate legalistic skirmishes while the nation's children ( and next generation of voters) attend our nation's socialist-entitlement and godless K-12 schools and universities. These schools and universities are filled to the brim with Marxists, homo-bullies, and teachers who were trained by professors of this ilk.

The godless Marxists are laughing at us and at the NRA.

My guess would be either affirmative action or political connections, or a combination of both.

How, pray tell, did this raving liberal lunatic “rise” to the level of Professor?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The way Bill Ayers, and Dohrn did. Communists in academia of my father's generation ( born 1913) mentored them, opened the academic doors, and greased the skids.

Conservatives are DUMBER than a box of Cracker Jacks. They have for DECADES been blind to the indoctrination of up and coming generations of youth who will be our nation's voters. They have, and continue, to support the very indoctrination centers ( misnamed “public schools” and universities) that are POISONING the well of freedom.

Charlton Heston emphasized that we are failing to pass the torch of freedom.

“What does he have against people from Crete?”

First of all, he needs to know that cretinism is caused by thyroid deficiency & has nothing to do with politics.

Second, this ignorant lib surely doesn’t know that the Island of Crete is awash in guns and has been that way since the Nazis invaded. Cretan people know firsthand about invasion & the ability to fight back (note to prof: the Germans had tanks, planes, & artillery) and a succession of governments in Athens decided long ago to leave well enough alone when it came to enforcing Greece’s restrictive gun laws on the Cretans.

Charlton Heston was instrumental in getting the 1968 Gun Control Act passed. Typical hollywierd liberal.

They always start with the qualifier about what they think is reasonable for you to own and some how this makes them pro second amendment. This shows a fundamental ignorance of the constitution and the bill of rights. If the police needs to have a fully auto carbine (assault rifle) and several 30 round magazines. Then it stands to reason I should also have these. Since we face the same threats as they face. If we did not face these same threats we would not need police. The threats from a tyrannical government in which the police are a arm of not with standing.

“DR. CHRIS SWINDELL
Broadcast Journalism
MU Report, Adviser
(304) 696-2729”

Thank you, was looking for just that information. Check out the comments after the article. He is being destroyed by a tsunami of comments.

Swindell tried to keep up for awhile, but must have finally walked away. What a jackass!

“If the regime has to use that to take down a group of patriots defending what’s left of their country, then so be it. I can’t think of a more glorious death. It sure as hell beats captivity in a FEMA death camp.”

You got that right brother, I’ll be standing next to you with one on my back, one in the holster, and one in my hands. I’ll bring beef jerky too!
