My thought on the
Columbine Paducah Va Tech massacre Gabby Giffords VA Tech again whatever the next one is
Aurora, Colorado Newtown, CT shooting is that I’m not surprised at all, other than
to be mildly surprised this doesn't happen way more often. To now start
the standard post-shooting ritual of wondering if we’re gonna have
serious change re: gun laws is silly. That's the price someone else
pays so I can stockpile my house with guns. I don’t want one politician
on tv squeezing out some tears about this “tragedy.” My getting blown away in the street by anyone who can crack
the riddle of getting their hands on a gun is worth it.
The 20, or 30, or however many little kids that got blown away in Newton is the price we pay every day to make sure that the stockpiling of automatic weapons remains as easy as possible for America's citizens. People who have to wait through background checks or feel the threat of one day being made to surrender one of their many automatic weapons are the victims here, not the kids.
UPDATE: The Onion
gets it exactly right.
