Cross Post - The VPC said so, so it must be true

[DonP]

In response to the Senate votes ...

Direct from the "terrorist training manual" "on good authority" ...

“In some countries of the World, especially the USA, firearms training is available to the general public,” and that “it is perfectly legal” to obtain weapons such as AK-47 assault rifles." Wonder what that looks like in Arabic, Urdu or Farsi?

This is gonna be a big surprise to the state troopers that always man the NICS check station at all our gun shows. And everybody knows the VPC would never make this stuff up.

Oh, and just another reminder in case you missed it, we are all on "the losing end of this fight", "The tide has turned", et. al.

1. I see the poster at the link came back from his self imposed exile

He got into a fight with one of the moderators and self deleted several months worth of e-mails back during the 1st quarter of 2015.

2. Temper tantrum for being told to dial it back by the Host

Now he spends most of his time there talking to himself.

8. For some...

...talking to yourself provides good conversation.

10. That applies to most of them over there

and I saw the thread were he got told to dial things back and then proceeded to delete months worth of posts.

12. Yeah, somethin' strange going on there. n/t

5. "The tide has turned"

is that why our activism group posted absolutely nothing about the vote on gun control proposals until after they happened? No list of them, discussion, calls to contact your representatives... nada.

Apparently the tipping point is so far past that activists don't need to be active

[DonP]

6. I'm pretty sure both activists were excited

You can easily tell "the tide has turned" by the high volume of gun control/activism posts.

7. At least everyone is saying the same thing

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

9. same as gun violence "studies" only drawing a limited audience

Like the Kellermann study, at least I think was him. The study concluded something like 'a lot of people who get shot die' and 'only a small percentage of those shot were instances of defensive gun use so DGUs are really rare'.

[DonP]

11. Wasn't Kellerman done in the '80's?

How old and discredited does it have to get before they file it next to the Lombroso theory of crime and phrenology studies on criminals?

13. It does seem to return like Star Wars...

...or maybe Planet of the Apes is a better analogy. :scratches head:

[DonP]

14. Meh, Gun Controllers do remind me of Jar Jar Binks a little

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

15. Really?

I can kind of see it.....................
