As ThinkProgress has noted, the right wing continues to escalate its fear-mongering that President Obama will take away Americans’ Second Amendment rights. In a New York Times op-ed this weekend, Charles Blow reported that such rhetoric “has helped fuel the panic buying of firearms.” On Saturday, the Washington Independent’s Dave Weigel went to the bi-annual Knob Creek Machine Gun Shoot in Kentucky and saw this phenomenon first-hand:

Weigel noted that all three boxes of the Hitler-Obama shirt had sold out by 3:00 p.m. on Saturday. In November, ThinkProgress went to The Nation’s Gun Show in Chantilly, VA, which featured similar fear-mongering. For example, an ad in the Washington Post for the event read, “GET YOUR GUNS WHILE YOU STILL CAN!!!”
This isn’t funny. Maybe these people need to be investigated BEFORE somebody gets hurt.

April 6th, 2009 at 5:14 pmI keep getting this really bad feeling that a bunch of these freaks are going to band together and decide to really go out and do something about their psychotic fears – mark my words – this is going to get really ugly before it gets any better.

The Right Wing has turned into the Party of Fear, and existed quite well when there was some huge diabolical BAD THING that it could rally against, such as Commies! When the old BAD THING disappeared, they floundered around trying to create new BAD THINGS for people to be scared of.
When the people decided that fear was the wrong way to decide how to go through life, the the Right Wing decided that the new BAD THING to fear was America itself.

Today’s GOP is a genetically and or psychologically depraved hodgepodge of morally and ethically defective mutants, miscreants and kamikaze loyalists who are crashing and burning all things Republican. They are the figurative buzzards and hyenas fighting over the last scraps of a carcass that’s riddled with maggots and festering clumps of putrefied flesh. They are the opportunistic parasites whose very existence is and always has been dependent on the success of alpha predators. Today’s GOP represents nothing more than the dying gasps of a failing species that is desperately struggling to survive in shrinking pools of their own toxic waste.

I agree that would be the first and best step to take immediately. Stop the rumors and lies. The reich-wing is accusing him of so much sh|t that it’s are to keep up.
NEXT:
Break up the media oligarchy and put the airwaves back into the hands of the people.
Fire the current FCC commisioner.
Reinstate the Fairness Doctrine.
Review each local broadcast license with a fine tooth comb for conflict of interest, political influence, interest in serving the BROAD community, etc.
If the people have no voice in the MSM then the people are being herded into gas chamber.
Why do you feel powerless? You have no voice. The government gave it to oligarchs!
April 6th, 2009 at 5:32 pmI find it ironic that these nut-bags idolize Hitler; a man who would have sent them to the gas chamber for being from the ‘undesirable classes’.
April 6th, 2009 at 5:33 pmI honestly think that they do want to incite an armed doemstic uprising if for no other reason than to throw a wrench into Obama’s efforts. Fear is the only tool they have left to try and save their fading political existance.
Ever notice how much the far right has in common with al-qaeda?…both want armed uprising against U.S. government, both want Obama to fail, both support kidnapping and torturing, both support violence in response to ideological opposition, etc…

My thoughts exactly! I mean, I could see if they said something like “Castro gave great speeches, too” because that would at least be in keeping with the Communist meme, and because Castro’s speeches didn’t blame the Cuban people’s troubles on the Jews…but this is just sick and really, really disturbing. What’s most disturbing is that these things sold out in a matter of hours. I hated Bush as much as the next guy but I would never have worn a shirt that compared him to HITLER for crying out loud.

A note to all the Republican/fundamentalist zanies. Don’t think your guns will win. There is a BIG surprise waiting if you even think about trying.
Americans want peace, prosperity and justice. And they will stand up for that.

These nutbags have been around forever. I have no doubt they’re enraged that a Black man is running the country, but I honestly don’t believe that this crowd is capable of running a real insurrection and none of them has enough courage to do so. Shooting up cars and wearing racist t-shirts is as brave as they get.
Of course, it only takes one wetbrain with a gun to kill; I just hope the Secret Service has learned from previous mistakes and that President Obama does not take foolish physical risks.

Maybe the Reich should look at Obama as being half white instead of being a black man in the W.H. and then they won`t hate so much!Then again we are talking about Reich Wing nuts that are loyal to the American Taliban who hate America and Obama because we elected a man who happens to African American.
Hitler gave good speeches too (on picture).
True, but listen to the tenor of the speeches. President Obama gives very cool and collected speeches – calmly presenting the facts.
Hitler whipped the masses into a fury. Rioting in the streets (as some talk radio folks have called on the people to do).
So close your eyes, and think about just the sound of speeches by Obama, Hitler, and Limbaugh. Then go to Sesame street and see which 2 are like each other and which one is different.
April 6th, 2009 at 5:51 pmIt’s sad that the simple minded fall for cheap sales gimmicks like this, and even sadder that they’re all armed.
April 6th, 2009 at 5:52 pmgummble-bee-itch Says: I just hope the Secret Service has learned from previous mistakes and that President Obama does not take foolish physical risks.
That is one thing that almost protects him. If they try to assassinate a black president it truly will be the work of a deranged nutbag. And the deranged nutbag who can get through the Secret Service protection these days doesn’t exist.
April 6th, 2009 at 5:53 pmI seem to remember many many t-shirts, posters and Youtube videos of Bush being compared to Hitler. So let’s not get too excited when the other side does it. The more hypocritical we look, the less people take us serious. We have gained so much credibility over the years, we can not afford to lose it now over something that is so easily proved a problem with both parties.

April 6th, 2009 at 6:01 pmBut, hey, they feel that they are only following their elected leaders lead. Am I right? When, Bachmann, Palin, Gingrich sell fearmongering to their constituants and riot inciting talk show hosts…ie…Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity and last but certainly not least, Billo the Clown do it, the mob thinks it is the true and right thing to do. Now, I myself don’t buy into that, but I know there are rabidily crazy people out there that do. Yeah, we gave GWB a hard time in the last 3 years of his term, but that was only after he lied, cheated and broke the law and let’s not forget alienating the rest of the world’s top powers and made us look like crazy,over self confident blowhards. This president hasn’t been given a chance by these people. THree months is a short time to fix 25 years of bad politics. But we gave Bush a break before and after 9/11 because he was only in the white house for 8 months….EIGHT MONTHS!! And we gave him that break when he told us we would go over to AFGHANISTAN and take care of the people responsible, because that is what we as a nation wanted…retrobution. After we found out he lied and got us into a war in Iraq that most of us STILL don’t understand. You know, it is funny them calling Barack a nazi…LMAO. Aren’t the right wing crazies usually accused of that? Remember the Family Guy episode right before the election last November, where they went back in time to nazi Germany and beat up guards to get their uniforms. Stewie looks down at his nazi uniform and says, hey what’s this…and looks down and on the lapel of the uniform is a McCain/Palin campaign button. So i guess that the communism slur was too perposturous so they went with socialist and now that doesn’t sound dangerous enough….so the people that want all “undesirables” to dissapear and have no rights, anti gay, anti immigrant, anti poor….these are the people that are calling us nazis…TOO PRECIOUS!

They can’t even afford teeth much less a gun I would say 90% don’t like Obama because he is black, but they will keep on voting for Mcconnell because like someone else posted they are braindead inbred morons

http://thinkprogress.org/2009/04/03/brooks-obama-fail-stupid/
And this bs: http://crooksandliars.com/david-neiwert/morris-hannity-agree-black-helicopte
Mr. Bush could do whatever he wanted and never was this call to arms even an issue, whenever you disagreed with him from policy to choice of toilet tissue you were accused of treason. So before some of you get on me about why i feel the way I do, talk me off of it and tell me why this feels like pre-OKC all over again.
This is a call to arms by the right, and it is beyond reprehensible, and treasonous to say the very least. And this is acceptable behavior by so-called serious people, and the so-called mainstream media is scared to death to say whats going on.
I’m telling you this bs is going to continue until there is another OKC bombing, and then you will see how quiet the right can get. They will turn it back on the Dem’s and the left and noone will call them out that has the voice to do so, and none of this riot talk will ever be re-broadcast, because the so-called media will be complicit because of their silence.
I have dealt with these types while I was in the Army. Some were my superiors, and some were my Soldiers, and believe me this is the hate that hate produced, brought to you by FAUX News, the right/white wing, the GOP, and all who hate Mr. Obama.
More people are going to have to die before someone sees what’s going on, lets hope that its not one of our loved ones, because the Hannity’s, O’Reilly’s, Beck’s, Limbaugh’s, Boehner’s, Bachmann’s, etc. are pretty much secure in the fact that they are not targets.

April 6th, 2009 at 6:51 pmI have been to these backwater gun show, there is a huge amount of anti-obama sentiment and tons tons on NAZI Paraphernalia, from Nazi flags and uniforms to Nazi guns, knives etc….

April 6th, 2009 at 6:56 pmI’m just so relieved that we finally have someone in the White House who’s going to put an end to this gun ownership madness. I know President Obama has to first finish the plan to put millions more on unemployment so they will have no choice but to accept the Government take over of the health care system and the banking and auto industries (CONTROL THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION!!!), but hopefully once that phase is finished we can start rounding up these gun nuts and put them behind bars as the enemies of the State that they truly are!!

So these gun nuts think Hitler gave great speeches?
Anti-semitism runs deep in the GOP.
I find it ironic that these nut-bags idolize Hitler; a man who would have sent them to the gas chamber for being from the ‘undesirable classes’.
i didn’t get that they were idolizing hitler with that shirt…
just the opposite actually… they hate obama as much as hitler should be hated…
though i know the NEOnazi skinheadss uphold the hitler, i doubt seriously any of them would wear an image of obama as such…

April 6th, 2009 at 7:34 pmChimpy was compared to Hitler because he acted like Hitler and drove our country to the brink of ruin. President Obama is compared to Hitler because Reichwhiners can’t find much on which to base a legitimate complaint. Despite choices we may disagree with, Obama has restored honor and reason to the White House and is making hard decisions based on real-world events.
After all, it’s not like the GOoPers actually bother to read legislation or listen to what our President has to say. Instead we have a bunch of freaks like Becky and Crazy Shelly, whipping a bunch of intellectual dwarfs into a frenzy over their paranoid delusions.
Listen to any of the far-right radicals. They start most every sentence with, “I’m afraid”, then they pull something from a 50 year old work of fiction, or the voices in their heads, and convince the inbred crowd that they should be afraid too.
April 6th, 2009 at 7:37 pmI only saw part of it, but David Shuster gave a smackdown to a right wing fear-mongering, gun-loving fool today.
The rightwingers continue to say Obama will take away guns when that is clearly not his intention. Like many of us, he doesn’t see a need for AK-47 on the streets of the cities.
If people think they need the most sophisticated automatic weapons for protection from a government they believe will oppress them, they are not thinking clearly — the government has tanks and myriad weapons at their disposal.
April 6th, 2009 at 7:37 pmOTOH, it is (Bachman’s) “armed and dangerous” people who pose a real threat to peace and security in the neighborhoods.

April 6th, 2009 at 7:50 pmbarrysoetoro- you going to answer any of the questions i posted directly to you or are you just another smack talking punk?
April 6th, 2009 at 7:50 pmSeriously. Liberals need to get a backbone and quit whining and actually step back take a deep brief and use the mind god gave them and look at this entire situation and research for themselves what is happening around them. Because I am simply amazed that anyone could be this clueless as to what the problem is. But one thing I do know. Is that when it is all said and done many will wish that they would of stopped and took the time to look past what some may want you to see, and SEE what is actually there. I am sure in the back of some individuals minds they have a nagging feeling that more is going on. But it is easier to overlook it because, well, some people like living in a false reality.
For instance, have you read the DOJ’s new proposal on FISA? Or the bill introduced in regards to shutting down the Internet traffic in case of an attack? Or the bill passed taking away the pilots ability to carry concealed weapons that came about after the 9/11 attacks? Or releasing detainee’s here and providing them with welfare and a place to live on our dime?
Or better yet, my favorite since I am in the military, is the paying for insurance narrative for vets injuries suffered downrange. Oh, they took that off the table you say, they said so didn’t they, how could I forget. NOT.Ya’ll better wake up because things are in no way shape or form what you think they are. Of course YOU think everything is just peachy because you don’t question anything this administration does. Therefore you have no idea what it is like for those who do. Yes, there is more going on and if people who complained about how the media played up to the bush admin would realize the play up to anyone in power with money. You would see that they are doing the exact same thing.
Just this time, it’s with someone who you all adore. I would rather have eight more years of Bush than have this administration for another month. I could care less about “party affiliation”. Other than Secretary of State Clinton, Gillibrand and Jackson and not the race baiting fool, Sheila, the rest are garbage. On both sides of the aisle. Seriously, has it ever, I mean EVER crossed your mind why not one Democratic party member from the Senate, not a pundit or blogger, but a elected Democrat got up and went on attack against any of the things that republican chic that stated she felt as if she was a *foreign* correspondent behind enemy lines?
You have never even thought to ask why our Department of Justice has no intention whatsoever of prosecuting anyone elected officials for corruption but they just determine something was *wrong* and it’s water under the bridge?
I mean, everyone is stating that the *right wing* is inciting violence and that it’s the *rights* fault and how bad it is. So why is it that none of the Dems haven’t jumped on the bandwagon, elected Dems, as a talking point to show how *far* and *out of touch* the Republicans are? Why is it simply in the blogs? You mean to tell me that with a majority AND a Democratic president they are unable to win the message war with the party who everyone claims daily is at fault?
I know everyone wants *change* but get serious. Three cops responding to a domestic violence call from a individual with prior history of domestic violence calls from that location. It pays to discover by the way. Shoots three cops, tells said cops while in custody that he did it not because he a dead beat loser for beating up a woman but because he heard on the radio that Obama was sending people to his house to take away his guns? Are you serious?
Now what if one of the Republicans you hate played up to this and stated to ask this individual what day he heard this on the radio and how did he become the lucky individual to be the first to get there guns confiscated? Now, I don’t know if Becks show is on regular radio or not. Even more, what I find really amazing is that based on his words, if he actually said them, how is it that his words automatically makes him a Republican? Is he registered to vote? And why would the police even ask him about party affiliation in regards to responding to a domestic violence call?
But it’s hard to imagine this guy was thinking someone was coming for his guns when he just got finished putting the beatdown on his significant other and they called 911. Plus, I don’t agree with NONE of you on this thread or on the beliefs those have on this administration. I am a registered Democrat but that carries exactly ZERO weight with anything plus I don’t do group think. Group think gave us Iraq and a whole lot of worthless elected officials.
Sorry. You guys won’t get change until YOU change how YOU do business. Like hold your reps accountable for there actions. I know how the house and senate works therefore it would be foolish to think they are innocent of wrong doing in the past administration. If they felt so *strongly* about that constitution we are dying for and defending. Why did it take them NOW to all of a sudden *fight for it*? Or my favorite, to all of a sudden remember Gitmo existed? Puhleeze.
These are the people who walked lock step and voted for FISA. Yeah, that little thing people so love to forget they supported. Pathetic. You might want to start asking your Reps why if everything coming from the *right* side of the aisle is so far fetched, delusional and bogus. Why are they not calling them out on it, live. Because you know what they say. Silence is agreement.

All the old-timer Republicans I work with are terrified. Terrified of communism, terrified Obama will abandon Israel, terrified Obama will take their guns.
Obama needs to go on teevee and address this now before more paranoid Republicans go on killing rampages.
Before more go on a killing spree? You mean more than have already done it.
I fear for this country. We may be entering another civil war, this time between two political parties. We progressives trying to protect our country and the conservatives trying to kill us all so that they can wrest control of the government back into their hands.
This is all very scary.
April 6th, 2009 at 9:22 pmI can’t help but wonder; is all the bat scat from the Reichwhiners a response to Obama’s warm reception abroad and high approval at home? I think the truth, that Obama is popular and capable, is driving them “around the bend”.
April 6th, 2009 at 9:25 pmLove how the liberals all use the word “troll”. Obama does give great speeches like Hitler.
Oh and all you liberals don’t have any problem with calling Bush Hitler. What now, can’t take it??
Truth is, Obama is worse. I hope we survive the next four years.
April 6th, 2009 at 9:28 pmReagan gave great speeches, too…
Isn’t that why the right wing loved him so much?
What’s the point they are trying to make by ridiculing someone’s ability to speak coherently and intelligently? My first guess would be jealousy, because they lack the ability to speak well. But I would be wrong.
The truth is that the right wing has learned to hone its “message” (whatever concept that may idea) to tap into people’s emotions first. When people get their emotions riled up, they tend to stop thinking rationally. (Hence, the incidents of “mob mentality”.) The right wing does not want people to think about these issues rationally, because if people do that, the right wing will lose.
And now that they’re getting people fired up about myths that Obama wants to take away their guns (completely false, BTW), the situation has now become very dangerous.
You can hate people if you want to, but you can’t act out on that hate. If you are angry (which you have both the right and the civic duty to be), you can channel that anger into peaceful forms of good old fashioned First Amendment exercises (such as speaking out, writing to your media, peaceably assembling – with the emphasis on ‘peaceably’, petitioning your government, or even praying).
Learn to recognize when the right wing is appealing to emotion instead of reason. That is when they can be most dangerous.

April 6th, 2009 at 11:13 pmI don’t know whether to laugh or cry or scream…..I feel like I’m living in the twilight zone….What has president Obama done or said in the little over TWO MONTHS he’s been president to cause this level of hysteria and insanity???….Today glenn beck had a background of nazi soldiers marching with their swastika flags waving, saying that we’ve seen this before. Seen WHAT before???…I’m just getting really, REALLY tired of it all. Day after day after day it just never ends with these psychotic right-wing freaks and their brain-dead followers.
April 6th, 2009 at 11:44 pmim scared too. and my first job was at a gun range!
The point they seem to miss is the second amendment was written as the ultimate check/balance in the whole republic concept. Even if it is only symbolic, it works, period.
It wasn’t written so these goofballs can sit on their roof in a lawn chair, drink beer, and use their rifle to swat flies. It’s unfortunate the amount of gun advocates that probably ought not to own a gun. I suspect an ad push by the industry.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:10 amIf the Republicans had a candidate named Saddam Pol Pot it would go right over their heads.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:11 amWhen the Right Wingers form a circular firing squad it won’t be a metaphor. And Obama is about as Socialist as Dwight Eisenhower.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:43 amI have been a life long gun owner and generally support efforts to keep gun owners free of government restriction which are just feel good remedies and accomplish nothing.
However, in the last few months, I have seen this anti-Obama insanity raised to such a level by Second Amendment people that it scares me that people can have that twisted a view of the government. Further, what really bothers me is to watch the NRA encourage this “revolution” and right wing sky is falling rhetoric. I have been a member of the NRA in the past, but they seem to have crawled out on a ledge with the nut cases and are imagining all sorts of ills which have no basis in fact. It isn’t a wonder that we have these idiots killing people and then proclaiming that they are worried that Obama is going to take away their gun rights.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:43 amI don’t like hearing people who are anti-Second Amendment and know absolutely nothing about guns spouting untruths about guns and gun owners. Likewise, I am a bit discouraged to see the NRA sit idly by while these nut cases who spend their days on Nazi propaganda forums like “Stormfront.org” screaming because they don’t want anyone to take away their ability to own semi-automatic assault weapon clones and ammunition. That is totally nuts. I’d give a guy who wants to target shoot or varmit shoot with a AK-47 clone, but basically, my interest in guns is for hunting deer, etc., and I know you don’t need a bullet proof vest and AK-47 to hunt deer.
If anybody comes around to get your guns, it will be a Right Wing extremist with a little too much power.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:46 amJeffie2001, I have compared George Bush and his fascist neocon cabal to Hitler.
With good sound logical reasons to do so.
You and your fellow idiots seem to be comparing Obama to Hitler solely on the grounds that he “gives good speeches”…
What else you got, moron??
And Proud? We ridculed that drunken, nose-picking, babbling frat boy Chimpy for very good reasons as well. You, on the other hand – you got NUTTIN’.
Why don’t you both go hide under your beds? After all, Obama is the ANTI-CHRIST – and he is going to rip your beating hearts out of your puny, hairless chests and eat them.

Wussies.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:48 amBush gave terrible speeches, but it was his thugs, Blackwater, that took the guns of private citizens trying to protect their home after Katrina. The NRA could care less about protecting the rights of gun owners. They have a political agenda and find the gun issue works to gather revenue and to motivate uninformed people.

If you weren’t aware obama is only half black and was raised by his white grandparents. So why do people keep raising the specter of racism? He has a socialist agenda, we disagree that is the American way.

April 7th, 2009 at 1:04 amPeople really need to elevate this thinking to a level higher than shooting salvos of ad hominens at each other about Bush versus Obama. One of the things which make this country great is that those who disagree have agreed to disagree. Valid political argument with civility is the key to solving problems. This move into “he said, she said” is pointless and solves nothing. I voted for Obama and realized when I did so that not everything he did would make me estatic, but I felt the good would outweight the bad. Likewise, I think President Bush did the best job he could as President and tried to handle himself honorably. They just had different approaches to the same problems. This country has existed for over two hundred years with politicians who didn’t see eye to eye on a lot of matters. What I think the glue was is a personal decision by them to honor someone else’s opinion as being as valid to them as ours is to us.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:17 amSpeaking only for myself, I spent 5 years bashing Chimpy.
Once I realized he lied to launch an illegal invasion? The gloves came off.

April 7th, 2009 at 3:05 amSo how much pheasant is eatable when shot with an AK-47, anyway?
If people don’t learn from their or their ancestors mistakes they are doomed to repeat them. This is not a cliche. People kill people not the guns they buy, and that not just retoric. All of the trash that I read is just as scary as any person going out to buy a weapon with no idea what to do with it, after they have purchased it. We are seeing things unfolding in our time, that no one that works for a living could have ever forseen. Self protection and preservation are two of the strongest emotions that any human being can feel. Most of the time far out weighing love or hate. I would suggest that before any restriction on gun ownership in this country be considered all of the ramifications had better be considered. Its not just guns nuts who own weapons or are willing to fight to keep them. Anyone who has never served this country by putting on one of her military’s uniforms should be very careful about spouting some of the trash I’ve read here. At the point in time this country tears its self apart because we can’t figure out how to live together. Which unfortunately beleive is happening today, had better be prepared to fight for there own existence. I will be, because I will protect my family against any who would do them harm. Can you say the same, if you can’t I feel sorry for you. For you will be some of the first to fall.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:05 amto pete@209
more pheasant is etable than shot with a shotgun at close range, count on it, its the person down range I would worry about
April 7th, 2009 at 3:08 amNeither Obama nor Holder have said they don’t want an assault weapons ban. They simply haven’t proposed it yet. Which is why gun sales are through the roof.
I am indeed compensating because I own a black rifle with 30 round mags. My dick can’t kill at 100 meters, so I compensate with a rifle.
Obama is clearly irresponsible; he is stirring up fears that the citizen’s second amendment rights will be abridged, which fuels panic and fear in the public, with predictable results. (Hey, if Glenn Beck can be held responsible for deaths by pointing out that Obama wants to re-enact the assault weapons ban, shouldn’t _Obama_ be held responsible for pointing out that Obama wants to re-eneact the assault weapons ban?)
April 7th, 2009 at 3:10 amBecky is stirring up unwarranted fear. He’s insane.
If you need a 30 round clip to survive in an ordered society? You’re an insane idiot.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:22 amWeapons don’t kill people. People with military weapons rack up major body counts. All too often those who make up the body counts are innocent, unarmed, civilians.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:25 amWell said blofeld.
I have never seen so many sheep and have never seen a mob of sheep with torches.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:28 amI’ve had my AR and .45 ACP since I was old enough to buy them.
I also own a fire extinguisher. I hope I never NEED that either.
You Obama people scare me.
I can hear their screams…. Baaaaaaaaaaa
“Late last month, Attorney General Eric Holder announced that the Obama administration would be seeking to reinstate the assault weapons ban that expired in 2004.” –Think Progress, March 10, 2009.
Clearly Holder is stirring up fear in the population that their second amendment rights will be abridged, which predictable results in increased murders. Shame on Holder.
I own 30 round magazines because sometimes ordered societies become less ordered, such as in the LA riots, Katrina, Earthquakes, or power outages in New York City. Plus they’re fun.

I suggest you go back and research Ill legislation and just see that your Sorry Assed President proposed and sign the most strict gun control in the states history then try and tell people he doesn’t want to remove your second amendment rights. Wake you and just look around at what we have lost already.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:32 amThe second fact is assault weapons are the lowest percentage of weapons used in killings. More people at killed with ball bats and clubs than assault weapons .. Don’t take my word for it check the FBI files on gun related deaths.
WEll, this should be interesting at least.
A few things I noticed;
1. Columbine and VA Tech were both mentioned. A question was asked about whose fault this was, I would like to point out that these areas were gun-free zones. Gun-free zones gaurentee the maximum number of victims.
2. Obama being black…I find this acutlaly laughable he pulled this off. Sure is father was black, but he was raised by a white woman and went to a white school. I’m suprised he’s not married to a white woman.
And on a side note, Korea launches a roket that may be able to hit our soil, Russia wants to put bombers in Cuba, and Obama and his cronies wanna cut defense spending…
For the record, Little Bush wasn’t much better but, Clinton was lazy, Bush Sr got the shaft, and reagan should be in the hall of fame.
April 7th, 2009 at 3:40 amI fully support the 2nd Amendment but…
Can’t you Reichwhiners see?
The Reichwing media are fanning the flames of rebellion. The stupid freaks who absorb their message are hoarding, and using, military weapons. The only possible outcome is rivers of blood running down Main Street U.S.A.

April 7th, 2009 at 3:42 amYou’re right but, my neighbor carries a weapon, my daughters also carry, and both of my parents do to. They may very well be the next dead body but at least they’ll have a fighting chance. How about your kid, will they run to a gun-free zone and yell olly olly ox i’m free? I’m on base you can’t get me?
April 7th, 2009 at 3:47 amI worked for law enforcement for 14 1/2 years and I never worked a case where an assault weapon was used to kill anyone. Several guns but never an assault weapon. We just had a double murder ( Husband & Wife in their 50’s) of 2 friends of mine last week and they were killed with a knife at a Pizza Plus as they were closing up. Both had their throats cut and stabbed several times. They both might be alive and some low life punks might have been the ones killed if they would have had a gun for protection. I am a firm believer that everyone that qualifies to own one should and also have a concealed carry permit.
Police can’t protect you plain and simple. If they could it would take posting one at every resident and business in the country so you need to protect yourself.
I own several that are on the active ban list that was published just a couple weeks ago and they don’t even know what an assault weapon is.

.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:12 amWell… I notice that you stupid trolls have ignored the part where I said I fully support the 2nd Amendment. I own several weapons myself and have no wish to give them up.
What I have a problem with is; lunatics like Becky telling the ignorant masses that they should be afraid of the lawful government of our nation and they should stockpile weapons of mass destruction. And I’m also against the unregulated ownership of military weapons.
“Assault weapons”, “high capacity weapons”, call them what you will. I fail to see a legitimate civilian use for them. Go ahead and carry a revolver, a rifle, or a shotgun. Law abiding citizens have that right and I’ll support it.
What strikes me as insane is the casual ownership of weapons that give a single psychopath the firepower of a squad of trained soldiers.
Heck! I would be satisfied with a national registry that sorts out the obvious freaks.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:13 amIn any great society, which ours is one, have always been besiged from the outside at some point in there history. To this point we have been lucky. Our natural borders protect us to a great degree. I think the ownership of weapons in a coutnry protects its citizens by the very nature of its existence. No foriegn or domestic enemy knows exactly who has or doesn’t posses weapons. I think this issue should be left alone. We have enough things to concerns the citizens of this great country without fighting over single issues such as gun control. There will always be those who own weapons and those who don’t. If gun ownership is curtailed its only our future generations who will truly suffer. Very few assualt weapon deaths, and I mean true assualt weapon deaths have ever been recorded. When compared to the overall murder rate in this country. How many rebel insurgent armies do you think could survive in this country. Leave this issue alone there are far greater issue that confront us. If you must worry about something worry about the debt load our children face, or about their ability to get a good paying job. Our future generations face a far greater risk of starving and being homeless than they do being shot with any semi automatic weapon.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:15 amPete,
I understand where you are coming from. Btu I gotta ask, are you a nutcase just because you own an “assault” weapon? I personally do not own any but, I think I am more afraid of the guy who owns a stolen handgun who decides to just shoot up the first corner he finds people standing on.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:16 am.
Dear youcallmeanut,
If killing your brother over political differences is not called murder, then what do you call it? We Liberals, aren’t the ones calling for the masses to take up arms against our brothers, YES? And we Liberals, aren’t here attempting to justify that cause, either, NO?
So why do you?
.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:18 amWell, to use your own flawed excuse against you, Obama’s only been in office a couple of months. He hasn’t had the chance to make a lot of mistakes. He started with the stimulus package, so there’s your first one. But be patient. Your little tyrant-in-training will get his chance.

April 7th, 2009 at 4:23 amNo, you may not assume so, but we may infer that you have no concept of Constitutional law, which guarantees the individual right to bear arms. (That means “carry guns,” for the “Think Progress” crowd, who apparently can neither “think” nor make any “progress.”) The “assault weapons” ban is unlawful. Now go learn something, won’t you?
April 7th, 2009 at 4:24 amIt’s time for bed. All you trolls/heroes will haunt my dreams.
G’night Max. Fight the good fight.
You too, you cowardly trolls. It must suck to live with your fears. I hope that the thought of a real patriot, like me, who can pick you off before you know I’m there brings you comfort. Try not to kill any kids any time soon. That would be a tragedy.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:24 amhey pete
Did you know the Swiss require every household to be part of a home guard. They require ownership of weapons to protect their neutral contry. The ownership of military type weapons is the only deterant the common citizen can have against an unjust governemt. Come on people get off it.

April 7th, 2009 at 4:28 amJust because you fail to see a legitimate civilian use for them does not mean there is none. All it means is that you fail.
Ignorance speaks again. I was in the Army so I know whereof I speak. A “squad,” as part of the standard infantry platoon–of which I was a member for eight years–measures anywhere from 12-15 men depending on the needs, or it could be pared down to four if it had to be.
April 7th, 2009 at 4:29 amNo weapon anywhere could give one person the firepower–or the training needed to use it–to match a squad of soldiers. Try not to be so melodramatic.

April 7th, 2009 at 4:37 amDear Pete,
The legitimate civilian use of our so called assault weapons is to keep our government in line. In colonial times civilians had the most modern weapons. That was the intent of the founding fathers, not to hunt turkey or quail.
George Washington personally owned 50 guns – 40 rifles and 10 handguns. He was personally responsible for leading the fight for freedom in liberty in this country. In his Presidential Address to the First U.S. Congress, the Second Session, President Washington declared:
“…when firearms go, all goes…we need them every hour… Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people’s liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The church, the plow, the prairie wagon and citizens firearms are indelibly related… The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference… they deserve a place of honor with all that’s good…From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day, events, occurrences, and tendencies prove that to ensure peace, security, and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable …”
I hate these murdering bastards as much as anyone here, maybe more because they are endangering my rights.
“They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security deserve neither liberty or security.” -Ben Franklin

April 7th, 2009 at 5:06 amI would have to say it’s hard to say. Think about it, if he is as dumb as people think he is he would not be able to make up the stories he’s accused of.
I’ve actually met him and he is a smart guy, and yes i’m sure some of the stories from his administration are skewed to try and make him look good.
the problem I’m beginning to see here is I think both parties of the American establishment are screwed up. I think they are both out to take your rights away anad will eventually scare you into it. Anymore all they have to say is terrorist, war, your protection or somethin to the like and we are willing to let them listen to our phone calls. We have noone to blame but ourselves abotu the mess we’re in because we keep electing the same exact people who put us here. We got this pitbull as a puppy and we raised it to be the way it is, now it wants to bite us and we just let it.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:11 amExactly Max. Now you’re catching on.

cyberguy353,
The Government already knows me…
… That’s a cool search engine, btw.
Now, the term, “Google, it’s your friend” is meant to endear one to be self sufficient. You know, seek and ye shall find, sort of self sufficiency. Or was I too obscure, once again?
Now, my last riddle, if you guys(sic) have all the guns and you’re afraid of all the people totin’ all those guns, then who is it you’re really afraid of, again? A peace-nic with a flower?
.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:31 am‘Gee, if they want to play with guns, why don’t they join the military and really defend the Constitution??’
Because they would miss potential Nascar spinout crashes and Klan rallies.
These fatuous aholes have no interest in the US Constitution, internatonal law or common sense.
How many multiple shootings occurred in the US last week? I guarantee these same reactionary hillbillies buying guns by the truckload were the same dumbasses screaming that if MORE people carried MORE firearms, the tragedy in Binghamton NY would never have happened.
Not surprisingly, they are the same inbred cretins who believe Obama is a Muslim, but God forbid these mental insects spend 4 seconds on this planet without a shitload of lethal weapons at their disposal.
When is the ‘right to bare arms’ going to take its rightful place alongside the right own slaves and oppress women?
April 7th, 2009 at 5:37 amNoone ever said I was afraid of anyone in particular. But we both know their are folks out there who wish to do us harm, so what is wrong with me legally carrying a weapon in the event such a person would like to wave a knife in my wifes face, or shoot at people in a McDonalds? Either case would warrant danger to myself and others and therefore would be a case in which said weapon would be used to thwart a robbery or to remove a hostile figure from performing any further acts.
I am more afraid of the bullet that is directed to noone in particular…

April 7th, 2009 at 5:44 amI already said I ain’t afraid of much.
April 7th, 2009 at 5:56 amHowever I am scared of liberals with an agenda to take away my firearms.
Just for the record I never cared for Bush much either.
Oh, and the only difference between an assault weapon and a sporting firearm is a bayonet lug and a flash suppressor. My weapons like Jusmee’s were grandfathered.
You really don’t hear of these mass murdering nutjobs bayoneting anyone.
I do think we can all agree this has to stop.
Whether it’s requiring concealed carry for every able-minded person or physiological evaluations for everyone wanting a firearm I don’t know.
I do know the answer is not to take away the arms of men like myself and Jusmee. There are many more good men in this country than there are nutjobs.
I did enjoy the banter Max, Have a great Tuesday.
.
youcallmeanut,
I half agree with you. Yes, the system in the “beltway” is not in touch with the heartland of America. Their ways in that “beltway” have allowed themselves to be engorged by the fruits of the People. This is why it IS important to hold your Representative accountable so that they can facilitate the needs of the People from which they were voted to do. This is how we hold our Senators and President accountable, too. Through our elected Representatives.
I’m fortunate. My Representative meet with me and the group of sit-ins at his office. He’s personally responded to my letters, and not just automated. He’s argued the “beltway” reasoning and I shouted him down, publicly in an open forum, and didn’t get thrown out for it because I was right when I questioned him as to how he’s representing the People by telling us how it’s going to be.
And yes, accountability was placed off the table, not by a (R)epublican.
Feet to the fire, or it’s me who gets burned, I always say.
And now that we are in another cycle of a new presidency, one who campaigned on the hope of “CHANGE”, I can’t help but hold true to my motto. Now, being the realist that I am, I can see the concerns of the stimulus spending, I just haven’t seen it fail, or succeed, because that race is just starting. Let the runners out of the gate before we call it finished, please?
Now, about that Second Amendment: A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Here’s an article and view I can get behind…
http://www.pressconnects.com/article/20090406/GETPUBLISHED/904060388/1006/NEWS01
“regulated” does mean something, NO? What, then, does “Well regulated” mean? Versus anyone can own any type?

April 7th, 2009 at 6:07 amOpps, You probably figured out I meant psychological exams.
Youcallmeanut… now there’s an 1d10t.
Heigh ho, heigh ho
April 7th, 2009 at 6:15 amcyberguy353,
I’m not afraid of your bayonet or of you, per say. It’s the persons holding the guns that concerns me the most. There has to be a compromise somewhere or else anyone can own a gun. And we all know what happens when anyone can own a gun, sometimes they use them on people, not dear. That’s what scares me.
It’s the unregulated ownerships that scare me.
It’s the arms smuggling that scares me.
It’s the drug dealer totin’ a side arm, that concerns me.
It’s the depressed teenager with angst, that concerns me.
Or the unemployed father that shoots his family, that concerns me.
.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:21 amThat’s interesting, but let me ask you.
What percentage of gun crimes are commited by legal weapons and law biding citizens.
How much did gun crime drop when an assault weapons ban was passed.
I don’t knwo the exact numbers but I will be willing to bed based on personal experience of growing up in south Alabam where pretty much everyone owns a gun of some sort and there is hardly any crime, compared to a place like NYC where gun laws are more strict and more guns are illegal to begine with…
that the answer is very seldom are legal weapon used for crime. Just an educated guess, I would say that gun crime may have dropped 4% after the AWB was passed. This is not counting accidental or self defense uses but guns that were actively used in crime.
Of course I think the federal government should be able to regulate, I just say they are regulating the wrong way and punishing the good guys.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:28 amWhat?
April 7th, 2009 at 6:31 amIt is regulated.
Smugglers and derug dealers are criminals to begine with and their weapons are likely not regulated to begin with.
The depressed teenager should have parent s who are involved in theri lives.
The unemployed father should know better.
Seriously how many unemployed fathers are out their killing their families? I am an unemployed father, worked in the ariline industry for 15 years, haven’t killed my kids yet.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:35 amYes, we are coming. Get your guns ready. “Bring out your Dead”
April 7th, 2009 at 8:14 amWe are coming. Kill the wife and kids. We are coming. We are coming for your guns and ammo. All the ammo. Even the boxes you have stashed at your mommy’s house.
The statement is:
April 7th, 2009 at 8:38 am“They will get my gun when they pry it from my cold dead child’s hands.”

This sounds quite similar to all those posts by those who were convinced Bush would not leave office without bombing Iran and those who were convinced he wouldn’t leave office at all, but would declare martial law. Get a grip. ;)
April 7th, 2009 at 9:11 amI for one am all for supporting the right for every American, regardless of age, to walk down the street and into ANY public establishment while wearing a sidearm of choice and a military semi-automatic or automatic rifle slung comfortably over a shoulder.
Whew! Wouldn’t our world be sucha beautiful, loving, peaceful, kind of place?
I can see all the churches and mosques, with neat stacks of rifles kept near each row of seats or pews (close enough to be handy for that eventual drastic emergency that will require a lot of people to send a lot of rounds downrange very quickly).
I can see the schoolyards, where children no longer have to fear bullies because they’re ALL packing heat (reminds me of a Marilyn Manson song — “I got my lunchbox and I’m armed real well…”).
Peace and prosperity through high caliber persuasion and intimidation. Makes perfect sense.

April 7th, 2009 at 9:30 amAll those buying these guns can place them next to the guns they bought when Kennedy was going to take them away, next to the ones they bought defore LBJ took them, next to the ones they bought when Carter was going to take them, qnd next to the ones they bought when Clinton was going to take them. Then stand back , look in the mirror – do you see a sucker?

You’re going off the deep end, there, bud. ;)
April 7th, 2009 at 9:54 amIn a year or so, our economic problems will be long forgotten and the news every day will be about the new struggle against domestic terrorism. The cycle of moral, paranoid in-breeding is just spiraling down deeper and deeper now…
April 7th, 2009 at 9:59 amI wish the gun show folks would read the story of the twisted 23 year old neo-nazi devotee who shot and killed 3 Pittsburgh cops. He was stock piling weapons and preparing for an imagined government raid that would confiscate his beloved AK 47. He blogged on white supremacy sites and expounded on racial separation and purity of blood. He was a product of the hate sub-culture nurtured by right wing propagandists who choose to make President Obama a target for the weak and paranoid minded among us. They collectively share guilt in the deaths of those martyred cops.
April 7th, 2009 at 10:31 amLet’s compare the amount of murders done each year in the Hood…from Saturday night specials…vice the amount of Murders each year by these so called Rightwing Loonies that you leftest keep referring to who purchase their guns legally?
Every time one of you idiots say “Gun Control”…I go out and buy another gun…to control it! Keep up the good work!
April 7th, 2009 at 10:56 amI’m sorry, but this story and most of the related comments are extremely weak. I live in KY, not far from this place, and I’ve NEVER HEARD OF THIS GUN SHOOT. First of all, anyone who would read this tripe and assume the majority of Kentuckians or even conservatives are people who would sell/buy ignorant T-shirts like these has more in common with the sellers than they realize. Secondly, the author is just trying to stir up the left needlessly. Did Weigel report on other what else was sold at this little event? No. Did he interview anyone? Perhaps, but they only report the sensational. I’m sorry, but that’s narrow-minded at best.
What we need is open dialog, not “reporters” who are Jerry Springer wannabes. We need open, intelligent dialog between the two sides. Rather than stoop to writing inflammatory articles or comments, work to bring understanding across the aisle. Now THAT would be change I could believe in.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:00 pmThese shirts were awesome. It is shame Dave Weigel was too much of a coward to do an interview with the NRA. I thought “reporters” were supposed to tell both sides of the story…oh well.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:01 pmI’m not left-wing, I’m not right-wing, but I highly recommend that everyone visit youtube.com and search for the documentary “The Obama Deception” It discusses and properly backs all of the instances of how Barack said everything we wanted to hear during his campaign and then made a full 180 when put into office. What happened to bringing the troops home in 6 months? It turned to 12-months and now its 23 months and they’re not even coming home, they’re going to afghanistan. And the gun control thing is discussed in this documentary as well with live interviews stating that they’re attempting to put a full ban on guns unless you’re a police officer or military personnel. Did I just hear the 2nd amendment run through the paper shredder? Again, I’m not democrat, I’m not republican ( they’re both part of the same posse anyways with the same agenda and the same puppeteers behind the curtain) but I HIGHLY recommend everyone watch this documentary. At the very least, take into consideration all the points made in the vid and make your own judgement. When the sh*t hits the fan, you won’t be able to say “I didn’t see it coming”
NOT CARING is the worst thing you could do. Stay informed.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:01 pmTwo thoughts come to mind:
1. “This controversy sponsored in part by (insert name of gun manufacturer here)…”
2. This whole thing reminds me of how the KKK sounded during the 70’s and 80’s when they started their long slow decline. I think it’s a human trait, people get shrill when they see their little worlds crumbling (especially when it is clear that they are n the wrong). As validation of this, let’s watch the responses to this post.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:03 pmJust for your information, all of us from the south are not “inbred” idiots like so many of you bloggers refer to us. I will say this, though, it will be interesting to see what you liberals are going to do when Obama and his Acorn mentality group do start coming into our neighborhoods and taking away our possessions and our rights. It is incredible that one man had such a hold over an entire country that he could convince hundreds of thousands of citizens in his country and numerous surrounding countries that a certain group of people should die. Yes Hitler was a gifted speaker and Germany was in a horrible financial postition following world war I and the timing was perfect. (sound familiar) I suggest all of you gifted, Mensa card carrying outsiders take a moment to re-read your history books. And by the way, when we get bombed by our islamic enemies and there is no electricity, or running water or grocery stores, or tofu for you intellectual elitists, don’t coming running to us to kill and clean your food. We have survived hundreds of years by living off of the land and we will a hundred more as long as bleeding heart, PETA preaching know it alls like you all stay away. Oh yeah, and one thing for sure, all of these gang bangers in the great cities of detroit, cleveland, memphis and LA obviously did not learn to use a gun in our part of the country. We eat what we kill. They aren’t worth the bullets.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:07 pmwow, i have never in my life seen so many closed minded folks then in here, and i grew up in the “evil south”. You folks are truly the whack jobs, the most narrow minded, abusive, facist people. I always grew up a southern democrat and a proud one, but the demoncratic liberal “progresive” party is a disgrace to American patriotism and yall should be ashamed. Obama and his cronies are bad for America anyway you cut it.
The gun violence, ever heard of a black market folks? take guns from goo simaritans, cops cannot protect everyone. Take em away, criminals will still get them, where is the priotection, what happened to our constitution? NOW, i do not think obama will take away guns rights, that’s like taking away the first amenedment, and folks would be up in arms, and it would be right to assasinate obama if that were the case, government assasination such as treason charges for abusing power, but he is smarter then that…
These shirts are freedom of expression, and you folks and yalls heinous comments show how power hungry and what fear mongering yall have yourselfs…LOOK IN THE MIRROR you liberal freaks you are destroying the democratic party and empowering the repukigans with yalls little man’s napoleanoic complex.. Godd day and God Bless
April 7th, 2009 at 12:41 pmPapa C. to dbadass!! Its people like you that we really need
April 7th, 2009 at 12:51 pmto watch!! A left wing extreamist that wants to shoot at law
abiding citizens at a lawful gun show!! I doubt if you could
pass a background check so you could legally purchase a firearm !! Their is one thing for sure you couldn`t pass a
mental exam !!
U.S. citizens need to listen up. First: the only “Americans” in the U.S.A live on reservations so put that in your PETA loving text books. Second: Without the right of citizens to defend their land and country the “USA” would Not exist today! Third: This is not about hunting rights or the right to have guns nor is it about KEEPING GUNS FROM CRIMINALS this is about what our for fathers KNEW was RIGHT and NEEDED to protect the freedoms THEY FOUGHT and DIED FOR! Understand that the Second Amendment was and is worded to allow citizens the ability to protect there selves from over bearing and corrupt governments. LIKE OUR FOR FATHERS DID FROM THE BRITISH. A Great Modern day example can and was seen between England and France. When constructing the tunnel under the English channel it took twice as long for England to Acquire the Land needed to build the rails and infrastructure necessary to complete the project. Whereas France simply TOOK THE LAND NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT! WHY? Because similar to the U.S.A England has laws the protect THE PEOPLE from corrupt government and makes government PAY an appropriate Sum for TAKING an INDIVIDUALS PROPERTY, France does not. IN CONCLUSION: ENGLAND and AUSTRALIA have reformed their gun laws to make it Difficult for criminals to acquire guns THIS HAS NOT WORKED NOR HAS IT REDUCED CRIME! Both sides need to wake up. You can not take everything from the Rich and GIVE to the Poor, Flat Taxes will help, BUT PAYING PEOPLE TO LIVE IN AMERICA WILL NOT (I have a Sister and her and her husband get a refund but pay NO TAXES and do not tell me I am wrong I have seen their Tax returns) on the Republican side Paying a CEO the salary of 10 or 20 workers DOES NOT BENEFIT THE COMPANY OR THE U.S.A. 20 maybe 30 years ago the process for investing was STABILITY now it is GREED . INVEST FAST and HARD and get out with ALL YOU CAN. YES, the U.S.A has become a friend Damn Place has it not? Grow up and worry about your families and country and less about YOURSELF or your PARTY.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:54 pmI know a lot of reasonably normal people who scared poopless over the Obama-Pelosi-Clinton axis. E.G. the 3 being closet-case socialists.
This same stuff also happened in the early 90’s (under Bush 1) with the assault weapons ban (which wasn’t a ban really). People bought because they don’t want to be told they can’t.
The Israel thing: the rationale – 1st it’s the Holy Land and has to be protected by a friendly state, 2ndly the Revelationists believe that the 2nd coming can only happen under a contiguous, united Israel after some major mid-east war (armagendon). Thereby it is Christian duty to support Israel. Not all conservatives consciously believe this but they are influenced presence of this belief.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:57 pmThe President Obamma makes for a stunning addition to any dichotomy.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:03 pmWhoa no one should lump everyone that attends a gun show into brainless, racist, in-breds because that in and of itself is single minded. While the shirts being sold are offensive it is also the right of someone to express their opinion, there are way worse shirts out there that express things offensive to me and my Christianity (which it seems is also offensive to some people here) not to mention the seemingly endless bumper stickers, t-shirts, websites and other ridiculing and demonizing Bush, but since he was a bad President it was OK. Our Bill of Rights are not able to be changed by anyone, not by Obama or the Democrats and the truth is that guns are part of our culture not everyone who owns guns are crazy, ready to snap and kill or wanting to overthrow the Government. Being closed minded and short-sighted the way many of you who have commented are seems to be a problem in our society. Believing that your Government can always protect even in disasters is ludicrous and short-sighted. I would also like to note is that I spent 12 years in the Army protecting yours and my freedoms and rights to speech and guns, therefore I am not someone who wants to “play” army but a Veteran of the wars of my Fathers, Grandfathers and a Brother to those who still fight for these freedoms. While you talk of “reichwingers” perpetuating the anger of Conservatives the same could be said of extreme Liberalism and believing all things that you read without a bit of skepticism.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:21 pmAmazing, so much ignorance on one blog. I myself being a republican, gun owner, voter, etc, cant imagine what goes through peoples minds while posting trash like this. Seems to me that the posters on this blog have nothing better to do than to bash republicans and gun owners for a small handful of doughheads that dislike our president. I do however believe that it is people like the ones rambling uneducated responses that all gun owners should be leary of. Ban gun shows? nut jobs? A few t shirts and you goobs have your panties in a wad pointing fingers at all conservatives? Guns dont solve anything? except oppression, murder, tyranny, grant freedom of speech, religion, etc (freedom for you morons to ramble on about all gun owners and republicans) and yet you seem to forget that if not for guns and our militia you probably wouldnt be alive today practicing your freedom to behave ignorant that firearms gave you. Get real America is dead on with his post. Maybe you people need a history lesson hey? You should be thanking our forefathers and our militia for giving us the right to bear arms to protect us against tyranny, instead of acting like sheep and thinking that all gun show goers and owners are far right wing nut jobs. Because what I have seen on this blog is a bunch of big mouths with little education on the subject complaining about tshirts and bumper stickers similiar to the ones printed about our former president bush.
April 7th, 2009 at 1:26 pm299/300- well said folks.. these folks here, it appears by their comments, are exactly what they say they dislike, but are too simple minded to realize it, what a shame. Guns up liberals down, should be the new motto, what ever happened to the true emaiercan demcratic party? it appears its been hikjacked by nutjobs.

April 7th, 2009 at 1:34 pmAre you people for real? You sound as bad even worse than the people you are putting down. Get real people!! I think you all should get more information from other areas than just this blog…. I agree with highandlost most of these comments show what dumb,inbred, morons their writers really are.
I looked up this Think Progress site and I do not believe they really want progress, instead they seem to want to keep everyone up in “arms” toward each other.

if these uneducated believing so much in guns, go over iraq and afghanistan so our troops can come home to be with their families.some of them are prejudice while majority are naive and dumb!.president obama gives a damn about guns while he’s focusing to recover our economy.stuipd ass fools!
April 7th, 2009 at 2:11 pmSECOND ADMENDMENT.THESE SHIRT ARE TRUE.OBAMA IS A SOCIALIST,HITLER WANTED THE GUNS,AND LOOKED WHAT HAPPEND.OBAMA’S PAST ON GUN CONTROL IS TOTAL SOCIALISTIC.THIS IS GOOD FOR GUN STORES.THESE SHOWS ARE GREAT,YOU SHOULD VISIT ONE BEFORE COMMENTING ON THEM.VERY NICE PEOPLE THERE.

April 7th, 2009 at 5:27 pmOBAMA,THE TRUE DECEPTION. WATCH OBAMA DECEPTION,GOOD FLICK.
April 7th, 2009 at 6:41 pmNot to pour cold water on this “they’re a bunch of fear-mongering haters” rant, but wasn’t it the left that repeatedly accused Bush of being Hitler? Wasn’t it the left that pushed the idea that Bush wanted to create a theocracy? Wasn’t it the left that said that Bush was creating a dictatorship?
In that Obama hasn’t changed a thing since taking office–and added his call for a “civilian security force every bit as well-armed and prepared as our military”, and started staging 80,000 troops in Georgia for possible “civil disobedience” (Army Times, Consequence Management Response Force), I’d have to say that if the left’s concerns had any grain of truth to them, the the right’s concerns are well-founded. Now, if you on the left want to admit it was all hogwash and hyperbole for nothing but a political advantage, I’d at least give you credit for being honest-but I don’t think the hatred and foaming at the mouth I saw from liberals was schtick. Maybe-but I don’t think so. So throw the “fear-mongering” label at the right all you want-we’re pikers compared to you lefties.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:48 pmWhat is wrong with exorcising our right to free speach? There are millions of Americans who decry the socialst agenda of Obama and his crooked administration. Will we be allowed to wear anti Obama shirts when he and his cohorts are frog marched off to jail?
April 7th, 2009 at 11:51 pmThey SHOULD BAN all guns. That way people will be safe. While they are at it they should make drunk driving illegal and heck make it illegal to manufacture or smoke crack and shoot up heron…HEY…wait a minute…
People just simply do not think about what they say or want…they are just happy and content to be sheep…so sad.
