lol well that could theoretically happen but not like the first Virginia Tech.

lol Gabrielle Giffords was surrounded by a bunch of freedom hating socialists who wanted to destroy the Constitution, just like she herself is and wants to do. Does it really surprise you that a group of socialists who want to ban all guns didn't have guns on them?

Two short ones. There's really nowhere else to go.

Leaving aside your puerile phraseology, remember that most Americans do not own a gun and have absolutely no interest in carrying one.

I guarantee you that if she had been a freedom loving American and her supporters were also freedom loving Americans, then things would have ended differently. They would have been armed and the second the terrorist pointed a gun at someone he would have been dead, incapacitated, or coerced into surrendering.

You live in an alternate universe. Try turning Newcorp material off and find out what's happening in the real world.

BTW, IIRC there was an armed civilian not 100 yds away. He stated it was all over before he even had time to pull his gun.

That sounds about right, and I believe that he almost got shot by someone who mistook him for the shooter.

Sounds more like you've been brainwashed by the socialist media into trying to take away our freedom.

Ironic then that the single largest grab at our freedom was the Patriot Act.

How can your freedoms be taken away, The socialist Obama has already removed them all; we are heading down a slippery slope to slavery.

I think you have it the wrong way around, socialism is freedom.

People on both sides of the spectrum (especially on the left), need to realize that in order to live in a free society, you have to accept the fact that sometimes things are going to happen.

Your reply contained words found in the dictionary and seemed to have adequate grammatical structure. That's about it, though.

Do you know how the 2010 Florida "V for Vendetta" school shooting ended? With the only person dying being the terrorist, because the janitor/faculty was concealed carrying and shot the terrorist. Problem, freedom-hating socialists?

Perhaps you should learn English.
