JWhit doubles down on Guns, NRA, KKK

Jason is really a bit out there. This sort of thing does not bode well for anyone

WHITLOCK: Sports gets so much attention, and people tune out the real world, that I try to take advantage of the opportunity to talk about the real world when sports lends itself to that and try to open people’s eyes. You know, I did not go as far as I’d like to go because my thoughts on the NRA and America’s gun culture – I believe the NRA is the new KKK. And that the arming of so many black youths, uh, and loading up our community with drugs, and then just having an open shooting gallery, is the work of people who obviously don’t have our best interests [at heart].

I think it’s obvious if you’ve traveled abroad, and traveled to countries where they have legitimate gun laws, that we don’t have to have what we have in America, where people somehow think a gun enhances their liberty, and that people somehow think a gun makes them safer. It just doesn’t. A gun turns some kids listening to music into a murder scene. And uh, you know, if you don’t have a gun, you drive home. You know, kids listening to some loud music, you don’t like it, you go home and complain to your wife. But when you have a gun, you open fire, potentially, and take the life of a child.

This is a big deal to me. The biggest deal. I'll listen your arguments on taxation, abortion, school prayer, whatever, and hear you out. That's fine. But if you oppose my right to defend myself, you are my enemy, and you can go ****ing die. The End.

For what it is worth we all live at the mercy of others. If someone wanted you dead you would be dead and there is nothing you could do about it.

I'm just curious if we all agree that there is not an unrestricted right to "bear arms". Or if anyone believes that there is no restriction that is constitutional, in their view.

I believe if I remember the wording in Mo, that if you feel you are in imminent danger of bodily harm, you can use lethal force. Im sure thats not exactly the wording but its close.

Or if not armed you can run like the wind and hope you are quick as a bunny and get away

Unless you were carrying and you shot them.

Sorry, very poorly worded response on my part.

I'm asking which weapons are permissible for use in defending yourself. And which weapons are under restriction.

You're not making any sense.

Are we talking about a sniper?

Guns, big ones, small ones, fast ones, slow ones. If there was ever a slippery slope argument to be had it would be on this subject. Hell they even want to ban bullets if they can't ban guns, it's just stupid.

[BigMeatballDave]

A question for the Anti-gun people:

What do you think would happen if all guns were banned?

[BIG_DADDY]

WE need to quit treating guns if they are a huge problem in this country, they are not. Anyone that went over the stats I posted earlier can clearly see with 2.5M successful defensive gun uses every year they are a huge blessing.

There is no restriction on firearms that is constitutional. That is what "shall not be infringed" means.
