    Our local gun stores has a picture of Obama on the wall behind the counter. The caption says, "Salesman of the year."

    Using Statistics for an 8 sigma event? stupid, very very stupid

    Complete logical disconnect on the stats as well:

    Highest guns per capita: Wyoming, 2.01 firearm murders per 100,000
    versus strict gun state connecticut (see http://www.bradycampaign.org/stategunlaws/ ) at 2.71 firearm murders per 100,000

    they are actually BOASTING about how stronger gun laws work in strong gun law states such as Connecticut!


    Feelings over reality. The liberal's way of life


    furthermore, if state laws are so effective, then why involve washington? really, connecticut can just ban ALL guns like DC.

    to want to ban Wyoming's guns for connecticuts problems is hateful

    How true that is!
     
  7. There are no big cities in WY like Bridgeport, Hartford, and New Haven. This is where the vast amount of crime usually takes case. There are no gangs in Newtown. The worst that ever happens here is some dopey kid vandalizes something every now and then. This honestly could have happened anywhere in the country.

    Nothing will happen. It's just pandering to the base.

    It's like telling your kid that she might get that unicorn next year if she's good.

    I have an idea. We should make it illegal to kill someone. If only we had that law in place, none of these shootings would have happened.

    we agree then, strong anti-gun laws or not, you can't stop all the statisical outliers.
