People of the gun?

Hey they are talking about us!!!!

[sticker]

Maybe, we should refer to folks like Ms Washington as people of the criminal

[edcoil]

90% of America has guns. Can you “pander” to the majority or are the Chicago leftist just having another hissy-fit.

[MNJohnnie]

Leftist trash columnists have an irrational hysteric fear of guns.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Laura probably carries but just doesn’t tell anyone.

[NeoCaveman]

The gun carnage in America may soon overtake the maelstrom in Iraq.

More proof the surge is working.

[ladtx]

Instead of Republicans promising a chicken in every pot, they should be calling for a handgun in every holster.

Hmm. I like the sound of it.

a handgun in every holster

By all means. Wearing an empty holster is so not...

“In 1985 Washington was appointed deputy press secretary to Mayor Harold Washington, Chicago’s first black mayor.”

Gee, a Democrat columnist. Who would have thought!

[billhilly]

“People of the gun” do elect a lot of republicans, and that is a good thing. The crooks who use the guns in violent ways are more likely than not to be the same people pandered to by democrats. Who, after all,salivates at the thought of allowing ex prisoners the right to vote?

[mad_as_he$$]

the author is right about one thing ROOTYROMNEY are “pandering” to gun owners. Doesn’t fly around here - hell it won’t even hover.

[STONEWALLS]

” Have you heard any politicians talking lately about handgun violence?”

....no, and you’re not going to either....pols have learned that speaking in favor of gun control is the kiss of death....the last numbers I saw showed hand gun sales on the increase....especially among women....I myself got a concealed carry permit last year and am glad I did.

the nightmarish plague of handguns gone wild

This woman is insane.

I would have thought that doctor-patient confidentiality would have prevented the publication of her creative-writing therapy sessions.

[Non-Sequitur]

And Democratic pols pander to people against the gun. Plus, I also understand that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

[Travis McGee]

Typical liberal bed-wetter, with the mind of a six year old.

[MrB]

Exactly my thoughts -

“every day, pop, pop, pop - people are sentenced to death because some liberal judges made it easy for dangerous criminals to be released amongst the innocent population.”

“liberals” are “people of the criminal”

[captain_dave]

“...It’s probably naive to think that Republican-Roberts-dominated Supremes will rule in favor of gun control. But then I still believe in Santa Claus.”

I am certain that the Justices will carefully consider the case on a constructionist basis. I am just as certain that the author of this article does not believe in Santa Claus.

(And he wonders why he finds little lumps of coal around his house after December 25th)
