Stuck in the 1700s Tom Derby's idiotic barf alert

[Just another Joe]

We have more important rights to fight for than the right to bear arms.

If we don't have this right, the rest of them do no good.

But Derby seems to be blaming Len’s death on an inanimate object, rather than the human beings who took Len’s life.

Or the choices made by this young man to, first, become a gangbanger and, second, to become a "professional assasin".

An Armed Citizen, Is A Safe Citizen!

The Second Amendment...
America's Only Homeland Security!

Be Ever Vigilant!

If this idiot thinks America is "the murder capitol of the western world", he hasn't noticed the Mexican murder rate.

I thought the lefties had pretty much given up on gun control as a political issue due to their frequent defeats on the subject.

“The premise of the Second Amendment, the need for minutemen, no longer exists."

WRONG!

[MamaTexan]

In a free society we must rely on the police.

But, but, but...the courts have found the police can't be held legally liable for failing to protect us.

I don’t think Mr. Derby is a bad man, just horribly misguided.

He is painfully ignorant.

I vote we leave him alone and let Darwin take him out.

>>In a free society we must rely on the police.

Translation: We need bigger a police force and more taxes to run it

[se_ohio_young_conservative]

What do you expect from the same type of people who value the life of a little deer running through the woods more than they do an unborn child ?

[domenad]

I understand that Soviet Russia had a lot of police, and no right to own guns. Boy, look how great that turned out.

“I lost track of Len, and a colleague brought me the bad news before the papers got it: He had become a professional assassin, and his own gang killed him and set his body on fire in a football field in North Camden.”

Actions have consequences. What part of "Duh?" doesn't this moron understand?

[beltfed308]

This guy lost most of his arguments before he even started. That is if he had even followed hurricane Katrina last year.

Double bang list bump.

[Joe Brower]

"I don’t think Mr. Derby is a bad man, just horribly misguided."

The term "useful idiot" is fully applicable here in regards to Mr. Derby.

[Red Badger]

How does an idiot like that ever get to teach in public schools?......oops, I answered my own question..........

[Graymatter]

The English teacher should take shop. That is to say, the damfool teacher in Camden NJ of all places needs to be a grocer in Camden NJ.

[nathanbedford]

The reason we have the right to bear arms is not to shoot wolves as the author suggests, or put meat on the table, or to defend ourselves against predators of the human sort. The real reason we have the right to bear arms is so we can shoot the King.

Jefferson thought a revolution was needed about every generation. You can't have a decent revolution if you can't shoot.

[Spok]

"In a free society we must rely on the police."

Here's a piece of moronic logic. If we must rely on the government, we're anything but free.

[NonLinear]

A "You might be interested in this" ping...

[Jeff Gordon]

If Tom Derby were raised in the Middle East, this wild eyed idealist would have become an Islamic Extreamist and maybe even a suicide bomber.

The difference between a western flaming liberal and a middle eastern terrorist is a simple matter of education. Their natures are the same.

Ran across a clip of Larry The Cable Guy last night on tv. My husband and I had a good laugh at his saying "Blaming a gun for killing people is like blaming my pencil for bad spelling."

We all have the right to bear arms
