1. One time I was there, a stabbing took place near me

It's not safe anymore.

20. I went there in the first year it was opened.

Just a couple of times. It was such a low key safe place at one point.Totally off the rails now.
I never liked it because it was basically a huge airplane hanger.

speaking of "America First"...

[AllyCat]

21. Welcome to America.

Where "only one dead" after a shooting is a cause for relief.

12. This is the

GQP version of the real “ War on Christmas”, or any fucking day.

14. My dad

Passed of Covid 2 weeks ago. He left me a hand gun he has had his whole adult life. I went to a local gun store here in WNC, (one of many) to see how I needed to let local law know I now own it. The ignorant looking clerk said “we ain’t no damn communist state like California or New York, you don’t have to let anyone know you have it”. Wanted to say fuck you, but there were thousands of guns there.
Also there is a 3 day major gun show here at the fair grounds though tomorrow. Right at Jesus, Peace on Earth, Good Will to all day. Gotta get Toys for the Children, since WalMart can’t supply em. God Blessin us.

19. I'm so sorry, Traildogbob.

I’m so terribly sorry about the loss of your dad.

[Traildogbob]

25. Thank you

And “younder” very much. He had Breathing issues and numb leg one morning, admitted that afternoon, gone by 6:00 the next morning. Not expected. Had shots, just would not wear the damn mask. I will miss him. He was a good man, got sucked into Fox and Limbaugh. Was broke loose from trump though, but still claimed GOP status. From Augusta Ga. They put the nail in Hershel’s chance. Everyone please do not take risks.
Happy Christmas, treasure your loved ones and a healthy New Year to all out there.

23. Sorry about your dad.

[calimary]

15. Aw man - a day-and-a-half away from Christmas.

Oh man…

Nobody should have to be in mourning during Christmas. For the victim’s loved ones, Christmas will be a time of tears forever more.

Aw man… it can’t even stop for Christmas.

Heartbreak for the holidays.

[Leith]

18. Over and over and over

It never stops.

17. Merry Gunsmas

Just another day in the United States of Gunmerica...

[Warpy]

22. Hope some gunloon was playing with his gun

and shot himself in a very tender spot.

That just never seems to happen. Why are the guys with the guns usually the last people who should have them?

24. This sign never needs updating.
