Hey, Wonkenheimers, remember after the Newtown school massacre, when the great American gun-fondling community told you to all shut up about gun control, because “too soon,” and “anyway, this is just a mental health problem”? And remember when B. Barry Bamz (D-Gungrabberistan) tried to re-implement some weentsy, window-dressing, gun-control measures like magazine-size restrictions, and was told in no uncertain terms to fuck off with that noise, because “this is just a mental health problem”? Remember that?
The CDC reports about 32,000 gun deaths per years, 60% of which are suicides. I had a cousin who suffered from a bout of mental illness. His family removed all the weapons from their premises but he managed to find one he&#039;d hidden and he killed himself. Here are some further details from Pew Research: <i> In 2010, there were 3.6 gun homicides per 100,000 people, compared with 7.0 in 1993, according to CDC data. In 2010, CDC data counted 11,078 gun homicide deaths, compared with 18,253 in 1993.5 Men and boys make up the vast majority (84% in 2010) of gun homicide victims. The firearm homicide rate also is more than five times as high for males of all ages (6.2 deaths per 100,000 people) as it is for females (1.1 deaths per 100,000 people). By age group, 69% of gun homicide victims in 2010 were ages 18 to 40, an age range that was 31% of the population that year. Gun homicide rates also are highest for adults ages 18 to 24 and 25 to 40. A disproportionate share of gun homicide victims are black (55% in 2010, compared with the 13% black share of the population). Whites were 25% of victims but 65% of the population in 2010. Hispanics were 17% of victims and 16% of the population in 2010.</i>
I really want someone to try to make sense of what he&#039;s saying, because if my interpretation is correct, he&#039;s lost more than just the last election.

True... and there is absolutely zero ability to track the &#039;who the hell knows how many&#039; private transactions that occur far more frequently.
To be perfectly honest, I have owned guns - even my teenage son owns a hunting rifle. I couldn&#039;t care less if the local PD, the ATF or the FBI knows - in fact I&#039;d rather they know in case of an emergency; like a fire and no one is at home and shells start going off. I guess I&#039;m just &quot;weird&quot; like that...
We&#039;ll never understand that Frenchie fried math all you furiners use. This is &#039;Murkia you need to speak dadgum American when y&#039;all talk to us.
Our chief weapon in the war to keep ourselves sane is humor. Humor, and the ability to laugh at ourselves... Among our chief weaponry are such diverse elements as.... And, although a relatively poorly regulated militia, Wonkette has the bestest arsenal.
That said, yeah, sometimes individuals or the collective hive mind needs a newspaper smack across the nose (NYTimes.com on an iPad works best) with regards to this issue, and others, such as sizeism (There&#039;s enough other stuff about Gov. Chris^2tie to make fun of, FFS), also, too.
I&#039;m a newbie here myself. Hope you find the site useful and the natives friendly. Cheers.

Ignoring and/or shaming this paranoid organization out of existence ?
OT, but it seems Mitt Romney is both bitter and issuing criticisms that don&#039;t make any sense but being taken seriously by Fox News: <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.c..." target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/05/mitt-rom...">http://www.huffingtonpost.c...

Dear c--nt
Their powder is so wet they will never fire anything.
I think officially that can be translated to The Patriot Act.

As a scientist, I can say that something about that report doesn&#039;t smell right.

How long before Zimmerman&#039;s lawyer rescues him from this tyranny?

Also too its fiscally responsible - doesn&#039;t have to spend all our muneeze fighting big gun lobeeze.
We&#039;re still offended by all those Polar Air Masses you send our way. Keep your air on your own side, dammit!
