11. I Am Not Sure What Is Going To Happen ------

Tue Dec 18, 2012, 12:36 AM

Dec 2012

What is so sick is that the same AR-15 used in the massacre is flying off the shelves. That fact exposes a particular level of insanity that I have never seen. How can you be so jaded as to love a gun that has killed so many innocents. It is twisted and deranged. This gun control dispute is going to reveal how sick we are as a country.

In the end I do not see anything getting done because the resistance is going to be more fierce than we can imagine based on the reaction I see for even the prospect of debate. Obama's speech has set off a firestorm of resentment.

Chris Matthews on Hardball had this gun wing nut calling for revolution? Tackling the gun issue is going to be a very politically dangerous enterprise. The GOP will exploit it to get power back you can just about count on it. And the Koch's and their ilk will put almost billions into the next election cycle.
