    Close to 100,000,000 Americans own guns legally; they have between them untolled billions of rounds of ammunition. If they were the problem, you’d know about it.

    Note that not all the bullets are hitting the intended target.

    If teachers are going to be armed, then it is time for Staples to carry ammo.

    I’ve heard from many of my fellow Canadians that they do not want to go down there because of all the guns. We’re much safer up here.

    I always thought that if they were to reinstate the draft, the first people that should be drafted should be anyone with an FOID card, because they have the weapons, they’re trained to use them, they’re patriots, and I’m sure they’re wanting desperately to stand in front of people who WILL fire back…

    I see the brave cops who shot Breanna Taylor while she was SLEEPING are being indicted. Of course if she were a teenager shooting up a school, 376 cops would have just stood around in fear.

    What’s REALLY scary is that this is just barely into the realm of satire…

    From the bullet paths, it looks like the only one to hit the innocent guy was the one who shot him in the back.

    I guess Gavin doesn’t see race. He also doesn’t seem to give a spit in the last panel either. At least the black guy wasn’t a child this time. america sucks.

    A weekend music festival in Atlanta was recently canceled. Due to the state’s gun laws, the promoters couldn’t guarantee the safety of the performers or the attendees.

    Everybody, please forgive me…. In Hungary, the right to private gun ownership is not guaranteed by law…. Forgive me for making it even more difficult to figure out conservatives. So they all just went orgasmic over Orban’s fascist rant at that CPAC event down in Texas. Wife and I were discussing it, and she says: “Funny thing, that guy’s totally against anyone in his country having a gun.” I said, “Really!” I didn’t know this. Had never thought about it. So if a Soviet-era-style dictator is for taking everybody’s guns away, it’s okay, but if a Democrat here in America suggests sensible gun control he’s a commie. As I’ve pointed out numerous times here, when it comes to the things conservatives believe “two and two just never adds up to four.” Right, if you add up all of the above, the sum you’d get would be this: Apparently, conservatives are down with extremely restrictive gun laws as long as the politicians proposing them are racist fascists. I’ll stop.

    Several years ago some rude armed open-carry git pushed me out of his way in a Walmart when I was not pushing my cart fast enough to suit him. Too bad I wasn’t armed as well so he’d have had to be more polite.

    You know how cops tell good guys from bad guys at a shooting?

    The bad guys all have guns.

    How do you show a cop that you’re a good guy?

    You put your weapon on the ground and place your hands behind your head.

    I’ve often wondered: if I had billions of dollars and decided to give every adult black man and woman an AR-15, would guns laws suddenly change in this country?

    Guess why gun control was introduced to California by Reagan when he was governor? The Black Panthers were into open-carry.

    And they’ll all get off scot-free, especially the security guard/cop.

    Stopped in at the local grocery store for fresh baked donuts, our saturday treat. Guy behind me was at least my age (old), dressed in tank top, shorts, and sandals. Long grey beard and baseball cap. Perfectly normal weekend attire. What threw me was the very large handgun in the shoulder holster. Guess he wasn’t going to take any crap from anyone in the line for donuts… I just don’t get it, are we that afraid of the world?

    It’s those 10 or 15 million, who own most of the weapons. They are literally ready to shoot people in the interest of politics. So quit trying to mislead and obfuscate.
