The Gun Control Thread

I watched part of an Alex Jones documentary (I don't know much about him but he comes up a lot here ) and he laid out much of the same argument about the Bin Ladens and the Bush family...

Poppy Bush spent the night of September 10, 2001 at the White House with Darth Cheney. Wouldn't you like to know what they were talking about.... Or why Poppy chose to spend the night there when his idiot son was out of town. Or for that matter, why Darth was there at all.

Not to mention that whole thing of Poppy meeting with Shafiq Bin Laden - and his other Carlyle Group partners and having a nice little champagne brunch while watching the Pentagon burn.

Bin Laden wasn't even involved...

When people talk about arming teachers or putting armed guards into schools it's worth remembering what happened in New York when 2 trained policemen took someone down.

That article doesn't specify any details about the cops involved, but I remember reading elsewhere that both were well into their career, and probably should have had better aim. When I first heard of the shooting, I assumed it was overzealous trigger-happy rookie cops.

Of course it doesn't help when the current NYPD chief thinks he's running his own personal CIA, rather than a municipal police department.

I'm guessing if the NRA got to put an armed guard into every classroom most of them would be retired cops.

Also what would have happened if half the people in that dark Colorado cinema had been armed?

Hell, I remember a comment from a guy who was at the Tucson shooting who came close to drawing his gun and firing.... and this was in bright daylight (as it usually is in Arizona). By his own admission, it would have been a huge mistake, because in the confusion of the massacre, the person he almost shot was NOT the sick fuck Jared Laughner, but rather the bystander who managed to take his gun away from him when he was attempting to change his 30 round clips.

It's one thing to keep a shotgun or a handgun in your home for self defense, but when it comes to a fucking lunatic in a crowd, "more guns" just ain't the answer. Unless the question is "how to raise profits for funeral homes"

Maybe this will lighten up the thread! HAHA!!!

After talking to a co-worker that's a former LAPD officer, IMO it's highly unlikely it'd go down like the gun lobby would have you believe that "someone could've TAKEN HIM OUT WITH ONE SHOT". Dark theater, smoke bombs going off, assailant in dark clothing, people screaming - you'd more than likely hit someone else unintentionally. He said the ONLY plausible scenario would be if it had been someone in the back, higher up above the smoke cloud and to where Holmes would have been silhouetted in front of the screen. Still highly unlikely the average even moderately-trained citizen would have the control in that panic situation to pull it off.


But no, the gun nuts will continue to puff their chests and insist "WITH ONE SHOT!!!!"

Great website...very informative, particularly to firearms neophytes on this board.

John Hinckley Sr. was an old CIA buddy of Poppy Bush (who also ran an oil company for his cover, just as Bush did). And in the late 70s, Hinckley Sr. just happened to be running a "World Vision" camp somewhere in Asia. "World Vision" presents itself as a religious charity, but is actually a CIA front group, and they have been long suspected of using World Vision camps as MK Ultra indoctrination centers. Not only was Hinckley's son at this camp in the late 70's, but so was Mark David Chapman, the sick fuck who assassinated John Lennon. They were likely trained/brainwashed at the same time.

It's also a known fact that Neil Bush (son of Poppy, brother of Chimpy, and savings & loan swindler) was planning to have dinner with Scott Hinckley on March 31, 1981, which had to be cancelled at the last minute for obvious reasons. Just like the Bin Laden family, the Hinckleys go way back with the BCE.

FORD, you're a nut!!!
