    Curious how often you have had to defend yourself in an armed conflict?

    Maybe only ladies should have guns. They almost never pull shit like this.

    Not trying to be contrary, but did you have to do this at one time? I'm just curious

    Learn to aim and shoot accurately! You won’t have to compensate with overly large mags.

    Unless you’re trying to cover and move. But let’s be honest, most personal conflicts take place within what, 3-6 feet? It’s why my personal carry is a .45 with a 5-rd magazine and one in the chamber. Plus, I really like the feel of a 1911.

    Total ignorance? No sir. You and I interpreted his comment differently. I had read that he was under the care of a therapist so my take was that he was giving scorn to that process by indicating killing folks was a better therapy method.


    And for those who think school shootings are a recent phenomenon.....that isn't accurate. Look again. Mass school shootings began with regularity around 1976 just about the same time that Klonopin hit the market in 1975. They exploded in 1998 around the same time that Adderall hit the market in 1996. What's more profitable - treatment or cure?

    How is it that a side effect of anti-depressants is suicide? Could it be because fucking with brain chemistry is not science. It is a for-profit form of legal drug dealing with a huge and powerful lobby behind it. How many of the anti-gun legislators are also taking money from big pharma lobbyists? When these shootings occur, why does everyone simply turn to the government and hand over the safety of our children to them? They are evil, distorted, dishonest scum. They aren't to be trusted with the protection of our children when hundreds of thousands of kids are so easily and heavily medicated.

    This steaming pile in Florida was known as a menace to pretty much everyone. From local law enforcement to the FBI to teachers, neighbors, therapists, fellow students and yet people are more worried about limiting HIS rights than limiting the rights of millions of legal gun owners. I'd rather limit one-off crazy phuckers and send that message than limit a legal citizenry that has every reason to protect itself from the government.

    I like the Springfield XDs. Won’t say how many I have, my wife might, somehow, see this post. Mine are all 9mm, I kept them the same for logistics.

    AR's are less effective in CQB, without 3 round burst or fully automatic capabilities. A KelTec KSG or 870 is more effective. A shotgun and two pistols are probably a better choice.

    But let's not forget...Normal people don't commit mass murder.

    Freedom isn't the problem.

    Rather than worry about guns as weapons of mass destruction, think about...

    TV is a weapon of mass confusion.
