Hey, looking for some fun tips on how to decorate your child's bedroom? WHELL! The mommybloggers over at the NRA have a really cool idea! And that is putting GUNS in there. You know, because there have only been 96 accidental shootings by children so far this year, and they have got to get that statistic up somehow! I mean, who is going to stop a bad toddler with a gun if not a good toddler with a gun?
I fired my stepfather's gun... once. That was all I could stand. The feel of it in my hand as it fired made me nauseated, as if I finally understood the damage it could do on a visceral level.
...when I bought my firearm I was offered a "free" complimentary 1 year membership with the NRA. Needless to say I passed! I have very many LEO friends/acquaintances that I enjoy going to the range with. However I would trade my firearm in for "peace of mind" and "tranquility" any day and any time.
Parents, are you tired of your kids clomping around the house in the middle of the night looking for a gun? Well just put the guns in their room so they don't keep you up at night with all the running around. Done and done.
I hear you. My kitten was with me in my car, and he took to travel like a duck to water, thank goodness. That's when I discovered that La Quinta Inns allow pets, and they will get my custom forever.
My sister the gun nut had a gun right by her bed, on her nightstand. She never did realise that if someone sneaked in, stood at the foot of her bed with a gun pointed at her, she would be doomed, anyway. She would never be able to reach her gun before the perp could pull the trigger.
But now she has a truly lovely American Bull Mastiff, who would provide ample warning and inspire much fear.
Plus, dogs are better than guns. They're wonderful critters.
"What difference does it make? If there isn't a gun in the house someone who wants to commit suicide will just find another method."
Would you rather walk into your child's bedroom just as they are swallowing the 100th sleeping pill or would you rather walk in just as they are pulling the trigger and blowing their brains all over the wall? Because I'm pretty sure you can induce vomiting, pump a stomach, administer an antidote and use life support. Putting someone's gray matter back into their head, not so much.LESS than 2% of suicide attempts by overdose result in death. However OVER 80% of suicide attempts using a gun DO result in death. There's no difference my fucking ass!
Absolutely, guns are no damn joke.

May the Baby Jeebus bless them because as you pointed out, they are mayhem waiting to happen.

When the US Army went into Iraq that was an INVASION. One person in your house looking to steal your stuff is the smallest invasion ever.
Needs a weeping eagle on the butt.

And here's this goddamn fucking argument:

Pfft. You and your Earth Logic. Get out of here with that thing!
So is this the RWNJ alternative to abortion?
(yes I am a horrible terrible person)
A stolen handgun is probably worth more than a flat screen TV and a hell of a lot easier to carry.
Pointing out outrageous hypocrisy does not make you a terrible person. It makes you a logical person.
After twenty first graders got shot in the face and we did nothing about it, that pretty much tells you all you need to know.
Now, a zygote, on the other hand, is a precious little baby.
