A one line answer to gun grabbers in the wake of the Florida school shooting.

I think I have come up with a really elegant retort to those that call for banning firearms after the Florida school shooting.

Liberal: "WE NEED TO BAN GUNS TO PREVENT ANOTHER SCHOOL SHOOTING."

Me: "I say we ban children instead. It would be more effective than even gun bans at preventing another school shooting."

It does two things: It shocks the person who uttered the gun ban line, and it demonstrates the absurdity of trying to ban things to prevent school shootings.

We need common sense libtard control. Tell them we’ll send them to real utopia camps for free. Where each according to his ability, to each according to his need plays out for real. We’ll see how long they last, LOL

“You could add “If it saves ONE CHILD’S life, it’s worth it!””

I originally intended to, but I didn’t want to jump the shark.

In a local paper (on line) there was an article about a multiple shooting and some of the letters to the editor were for more rules, laws etc etc.

I piped in with

“in view of the latest shooting and more that will inevitably happen, YOUR response is to take MY gun away”.
I have been around guns all my life, been concealed carry for over 50 years and have not only NOT shot anyone, I have never had to pull it in anger. BUT it is there should I need it.
Two things in life you should have nearby. A weapon and a parachute...YOU may never need either but if the time ever comes that you do, you more than likely will never need either again,
In closing, I guess your theory is if there are numerous rapes in the area, ‘they’ should cut YOUR tallywacker off, thereby ridding the world of the chance of YOU committing a rape”.

Some people didn’t really ‘endorse’ the foolishness but a couple seemed to think it was a workable idea.
(OF COURSE it is a workable idea, just sort of stupid and impractical)

Though I did get a lot of ‘likes’

Well, banning children will certainly make population control advocates and abortionists happy.

However we do have a certain problem with the continuation of the human race. ;)

I, for one, look forward to having grandchildren: All of the joy and none of the responsibility, barring some tragedy.

When my boss’ daughter brought in her two toddlers into the office, his face broke out into the biggest smile I have ever seen.

However, I bought my now 22 year-old son a box of condoms when he was 17.

My 18 year-old daughter, on the other hand, will wear a chastity belt with an iron-clad lock until she is 30. At least if her father has anything to say about it. LOL!

“gun-free location.”

________________________________________________

Those signs are ridiculous. “Hey, come and shoot us all up way before the police can get there!”

My dad’s nursing home had one. This has to be one of the most moronic ideas ever.

Just take them all down and keep the bad guys guessing.

All I’m proposing is Common Sense Children Control.

What was that book I read in high school, well, the Cliff Notes anyway ;)

Oh yes, “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift. Had to look that one up. ;)

Ban living people, everything else is moot.

What if the crazy bastard ran over 17 kids in the parking lot? Would they think banning autos would solve that problem?

A recent study suggested that the human brain is not fully developed in respect of emotion and logic until age 25.

Are we going to raise the legal alcohol drinking age to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal driving age to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal voting age to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal age of consent to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal age to enlist in the Armed Forces to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal age to sign a contract to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal age to get a Commercial Pilot’s License to 25?

Are we going to raise the legal age to get a Commercial Driver’s License to 25?

Well, you get where I am going with this: Are we going to raise the legal age to own a handgun, a rifle, a shotgun, a knife, a hammer, a crowbar, etc. etc. to 25?

No, we are not going to do any of that. What we have to do is start raising good citizens, such that by the time they are 18, they will act as adults and can be treated as adults.

We have done it before, and we can do it again!

I guarandamtee you that 18 year olds in 1915 were more mature than 18 year olds are today!

Tough times make for tough people, and we’ll probably find out what madem tough in 1915 before too long!
