N.R.A. Calls for Armed Guards in Schools to Deter Violence
The group’s vice president on Friday delivered a statement and said steps other than gun control, including cracking down on criminals and fighting violence in the media, would be most effective.
http://www.nytimes.com/
The spokesanus went on to say "We want to post freedom fighters armed with automatic weapons at all schools, hospitals, courthouses, government buildings, prisons, malls, and theatres. Their job will be to shoot everyone in sight at the first sign of trouble, to prevent threats to the sacred second commandment. In some cases, they may be issued with RPGs, bazookas, and other life-affirming implements, to teach them all a lesson that they'll never forget. Pre-emptive nuclear strikes against liberal enclaves may be necessary. Real Americans live only in paranoid compounds in the hills. As for the dead children - well, god will sort them out. Some of them might have grown up to be liberals, after all. And imagine how good all this will be for the economy."

2600+ posts, and not a single logical argument against new gun control measures for assault weapons.

Smaller magazines would work.
And, that Samuel Jackson quote is a fake.

There may still be time to get one of these under the tree for those you love and want to protect.

Ron said Do you WONDER WHY you had those experiences? It ISNT because there were guns around. Its because young inner city kids get an education via the street. Its because urban kids get introduced to guns via video games and parking lot deals.
Hi. I'm Ron. I'm a middle aged white guy who lives in the desert and get mad when people make generalizations about middle aged white guys who live in the desert. Everything I know about "inner city kids" I learned from watching news reports about the crack epidemic from the 80's and other people's generalizations about rap music.
(P.s.- Most kids get introduced to guns via video games these days. Come out of the 60's)

Wayne LaPierre had an interesting comment in the LA Times today, apparently referencing the NRA Board of Directors:
"The truth is that our society is populated by an unknown number of genuine monsters, people that are so deranged, so evil, so possessed by voices and driven by demons that no sane person can ever possibly comprehend them...

Gun sales in the 2 largest local stores for the past 5 days are the highest ever. Per day they are even higher than Black Friday (right after Obama was re-elected).
There isn't a single Bushmaster or other AR 15 type rifle to be had anywhere.
All the AR hicap clips are gone.
All the .223 ammo is sold, all 9mm, all .45acp, even .22lr supplies are scraping the barrel bottom.
It is all being bought up by people listening to and concerned over the shrill whining of the anti-gunners.
So keep it up guys. Gonna be a record year for the industry.

The First Amendment addresses the rights of freedom of religion (prohibiting Congress from establishing a religion and protecting the right to free exercise of religion), freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of petition.
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution is the part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects the right of the people to keep and bear arms.
Funny first the rights or freedom of speech then after they agreed on that they gave us the rights to own, make and buy guns. The first two things.
There is talk of Security guards protecting all schools by the Stupid NRA: Police $$$$$$$$$$$,stupid idea since they should be looking for crime not guarding or waiting for something to happen. National Guard $$$$$$$$$$, another stupid idea. How about giving teachers to arm themselves: let’s see one goes ballistic because one of her students can’t shut up or does not hand in his/her homework in time or maybe she shoots and her round misses and goes through the plaster board and kills a kid in the class next to hers.
Yes! The answer will be to hire private guards. The contractor with the lowest bid will win and hire Ex-Walmart employees, retired people in their 70’s also will hire “Back to Work off Welfare People” ; $9 an hour; they will eventually get bored because nothing happens and they caught for smoking pot. Big scandal billions of wasted dollars, so try another idea.
Cameras never work; fuzzy and lack of time to respond, plus too way expensive to buy A11M technology. I see someone is selling Bullet-proof backpacks; first no such thing it is Bullet Resistant/Resistive terminology plus it stops handguns not high power rounds shot from a high power semi-automatic rifle like the one used in the school so waste of funds and law suits concur from that manufacture by cutting cost and disregarding regulated and code because he was awarded the lowest bid which is the requirement by the FEDS. Plus the kid was shot in the head so no protection.
So all stupid ideas and give it to the stupid people to come up with stupid solutions.
OK
Just went to my local probation department this morning not for me but to hand in some papers dealing with a juvenile stealing some of my personal stuff 15 months ago; we went to trail, he gets a year’s probation and 250.00 fine which is my deductible. I replaced everything went overseas, came back insurance company pays me after months later when I get back.
So I walk in, it is fortified, had to laugh since I do risk assessments. The woman behind the window asks “Can I help you”, I say need to drop these off to one of your staff regarding going back to court to get the deductible: reason for his fine. We will go to court late Jan. of 2013.
Before she comes out I am assessing the room and see four mistakes, windows, access, lighting…… 2 minutes or less she shows up opens the door and I notice her left shoe toe against her side of the door and her hand holding the door to stop entry which was good, she relaxes I gave her the papers she requested and then I knock on the glass window just above the programmable lock. I hit and notice it is not glass but plastic [mistake assessment #5] and was so thin could of broken it easily. But I asked her what’s wrong with this, she says ???? “Knocking on the window instead of the door” I said “no” this door is the same setup how the kid got in the classrooms by shooting and opening it in from the inside. She is startled and says “Wow, you are correct”, thanked me and told she will make a note of it and will tell the appropriate people. Then told her where it should be placed.
So what will happen and is already in action for protection for children so they are safe: smaller windows to the outside of the new schools. Older schools windows will be updated with precast panels with a spray on fragmented resistive membrane to shield the appropriate height. The children will be placed further away from the windows not near them, Latches to doors will be wired for wireless automatic shutdown by a single or multiple button either by a person or by the sound of a rifle round going off.
Canada has a Sin-Tax: cigarettes and booze. Have the NRA keep their stupid ideas create a Violence Tax not an anti-violence because Americans well some actually a lot of them like Violence as for me, I am not one of them, on all rifles that are military styled. I do own various weapons depending on the conditions they are used for but find myself which has happen a few times in my past if I can't talk to him to reason or distract him then there is something wrong with me.
Booze and guns have you ever notice the prices have really never changed in the last 50 years; so double the amount on assault rifles and ammo. Half or that %0% tax is used for upgrading schools. Make sure they do not look like forts but blend in and use green products.
And that is just for schools what about violence against women and rape, pedophiles against children. Nothing no ideas just like in the battery commercial it keeps going and keeps going. Sad and we are called men, we are still animals.

Well I for one see a silver lining.
Politicians won't risk the backlash of pure prohibition. It would be political suicide not to grandfather in the existing weapons like Reagan did with Class III and Clinton did with so called "assault weapons".
I put it in quotes because it was purely based on appearance over function.
I am certain that a Mini 14 with a stack of factory 30 rounders (which are still available for cheap) could wreak equal carnage to an AR 15.
But the AR was kibosched because it looked badass.
Just like 2 decades ago, I can almost hear my stuff going up in value.

" A free people ought not only be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government. " George Washington
Ron, there are several ARs around this neck of the woods for purchase, seems our slow local economy is hurting all business here. I would be glad to purchase one or more for those in need, but cannot find one to suit their needs.
All legal of course.

Edit to add, many a 30 round magazine and even a couple drum magazines available, from good maufacturers.
