And with Obama's encouragement, lazy bums, ('victims' as Obama calls them) live in their parents basement and are fully covered by insurance to age 26.

ABC's such a joke. They also did a show "disproving" that an armed citizen couldn't stop a mass shooting by running an experiment in which they sat a student down in a classroom with a paint handgun, put him or her in amongst a classroom of other students, all of whom were wearing heavy helmets and thick gloves, and then had a SWAT Officer run in there and start shooting. The funny thing about that?

- The shooter was a trained SWAT Officer, which most mass shooters aren't, and so was deadly accurate.

- The thick gloves which ABC insisted they wear made it damn near impossible for the student to actually stick his finger into the trigger of his pistol, much less get a good grip on it.

- After shooting the teacher in the class the shooter ALWAYS went for the student with the gun. It never failed. First shot he kills the teacher, second shot he kills the student who has the gun. It was almost like he was told ahead of time which one it was who had the gun. How many mass shooters are likely to be privy to THAT bit of information?

It was so painfully obvious that ABC constructed the scenario in such a way so that it would be an automatic failure every time.

I do not know anyone that lost a child from “playing with a gun” but I know someone that lost her twin that drowned in their pool.

I cannot grasp how a woman who I think grew up in Kentucky & has NEVER had a child can drip such anger towards a gun owner.

She lives in her own Ivory Tower and has other people guarding her at every turn. Life of privilege & money sure creates a disconnect, doesn’t it.??

Even when I lived in the city, I couldn’t count on a police response faster than 7-9 minutes. In the meantime, what is happening to me when an invader wants o harm me??

Diane Sawyer Flashback: Sipping Wine & Popping Pills Before Primetime Live Broadcast
Posted on Nov 7, 2012 @ 7:30AM

By Amber Goodhand – Radar News Editor

Veteran news anchor Diane Sawyer prompted speculation that she was drunk during Tuesday night’s election coverage with her slurred speech and erratic behavior, and RadarOnline.com has unearthed old footage of Diane in which she’s seen drinking wine and popping pills before going live on air!

Diane, 66, was a co-anchor on ABC’s Primetime Live between 1989 and 1998 and in raw video taken at some point as she was preparing to go live on air, she’s seen sipping on a large glass of red wine and then popping pills she dug out of her purse.

It’s unclear who she’s talking about but Diane is heard saying, “I said, too bad she’s crazy,” and then gestures as if she’s drinking a glass of wine and snorting drugs.

Throughout the clip Diane, who seems to channel Princess Diana with her look, is seen fixing her hair and making sure she looks presentable for the broadcast.

This report should be bad news for government authorities who possess weapons as their children are apparently in extreme danger.....

Diane Sawyer Born Dec 22, 1945,Glasgow, Kentucky.

She appears to need another session with her plastic surgeon as the last one looks like it's in need of an update.

How many laws did ABC break? Isn’t it illegal in many places to leave operational firearms unsecured and accessable to children, even if they’re unloaded?

Why don’t we use their own rules against them?

LOL! Really. You know as well as the rest of us that they are a “protected class”. Witness the asshat in possession of a “30 magazine clip thingy” in d.c. No harm, no foul right? As difi about trigger discipline. Don’t forget about the shoulder thing that goes up. ;>}

That whole Program Crew should be JAILED for child endangerment with those UNLOADED GUNS, and deliberately setting it up for the kids.

Those kids pointed them at each other, held the barrels up to their own faces. Shocking to watch, and knowing the idiot parents were watching this happen behind glass.

It has always been said "It's the unloaded gun that kills", and YET they did it anyway. What if one of those guns had been loaded...............who would be held accountable?

Diane Sawyer and Crew..........you are truly dispicable and should be charged with CHILD ENDANGERMENT, but I suppose you have a waiver from the parents so that will pardon you actions, right?

First,the journalists conducted a little experiment to discover the obvious: kids like playing with guns.

As do goverment agents.

A little “Minority Report” action here.

After being told what to do after finding a gun, 2 of the 20 students played with the planted pistols.

Arrest them now, as it’s obvious they will be criminals in the future!

In the early 1970s I remember being able to take my deer rifle to school and put it in my locker.

At the end of the school day I would put on my hunting gear (mostly my same clothes I always wore except a few extras like gloves, orange hat a bigger knife instead of the pocket knife that was always with me even at school and some bullets).

I would have the bus driver drop me off about a mile from home and slowly hunt my way home.

Hell I remember my brother buying an old military 30-06 bolt action for $35.00 a few months before hunting season with the transaction taking place at school.

The bus driver saw it and when he pulled up to our house he blew the horn (that usually meant trouble when my mom would here it) and he said to my mom “Do you know that your kids have a gun?” and my mom answered “Yes I do and I gave them the money to buy it” and that was it.

Yes those were the good old days.
