FEELINGS …. NOTHING MORE THAN FEELINGS

A Harvard study of 26 countries found that the more guns a country has the more homicides that country has.  This of course refutes the idea that owning a gun makes you safer.  In fact it puts you more at risk.

IF I'VE TOLD YOU ONCE I'VE TOLD YOU A MILLION TIMES --- DON'T CONFUSE ME WITH FACTS.  I LUV MY GUN.  IT'S MY SECURITY BLANKET.  HAPPINESS IS A WARM GUN, BANG BANG SHOOT SHOOT.  IT MAKES ME FEEEEEL SAFER.

And that's the point, isn't it?  Those who are afraid Obama is coming for their guns are a-scart peoples.  Their gun doesn't make them safer but it makes them FEEL safer.  It's all about feelings.

In Sharpstown, southwest of Houston, a graduate student has a plan to give away 20 gauge shotguns to fight crime.  That sounds like a plan, maybe it would work here.  Why not? But why be limited to 20 gauge shotguns, how about Uzi's, something that'll really stop those bad guys in their tracks.  Everyone in favor of giving Uzi's away in their neighborhood, please raise your hands.

Republicants in Congress are opposing sensible gun legislation, legislation that would protect average citizens.  But guess what kinda protection THEY enjoy?  NO GUNS are permitted inside the Capital.  Why not?  If guns aren't a problem out here how come they're considered a problem in there?  What are the Republicants afraid of?  Guns don't kill politicians, people kill politicians.

Call your representative TODAY (202-225-3121) and demand that you be allowed to bring your concealed weapon into the Capital.  It's your Second Amendment right.  And into the Supreme Court, too.

UPDATE: DOW hits record high.  The idiots at Faux business news (chuckle, chuckle) made a big deal out of the DOW dropping 138 points when Obama was re-elected.  They've sure shut their mouths now that we entered record territory.  Faux News -- We distort, you make money in the market if you ignore us.  

UPDATE DIRECTLY FROM FAUX NEWS (another boo-boo...oops)

"Due to a reporting error, a March 1 FoxNews.com story on the timing and impact of the sequestration cuts used information from an internal research document that contained material previously published by other news organizations. The story did not properly credit the sources of that material, and has subsequently been removed from FoxNews.com.

The uncredited use of the material was unintentional, and FoxNews.com regrets the error."
