The gunners on DU don't. And guns don't kill people. And if someone dies, it doesn't count. And if you're mad about it, you're politicizing your gun grabbing agenda. And...and...GUNS!

that DU gunners really, really want to be our friends and to have some meaningful dialog about gun control. In other news, the temperature in Hell dropped to below freezing today.

don't give a shit who gets killed/shot as long as they can cling to their guns and they think that they will be able to defend themselves from the government, Red Dawn style. It's actually freaking me out that all of the things that may have been suspected are true and that gun ownership is a high indicator of a fearful, paranoid person who doesn't care about the harm that is being caused to society by gun violence.

even joke about, and ridicule the facts about, school shootings. To them gun deaths from suicides and gang shootings don't count toward the overall body count because the NRA said they don't.

The views and morals of Second Amendment absolutists and NRA apologists are sickening to a majority of Americans, and with good reason.
