That's how he was able to get her police issued firearm away from her and shoot her some more.

No need to make up new facts just to support a position.

OK Skinner, after your amnesty allowing RKBA topics in GD and seeing the trash it produces I agree jody Dec 2012 #1

Your concern is noted, jody. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #3

I was hoping the amnesty to post in GD about Newtown... Chan790 Dec 2012 #7

Please post your personal definition of "faux-Dem gunnutters". nt jody Dec 2012 #10

I think that one is self-evident. Chan790 Dec 2012 #22

Perhaps you should learn what the party supports. Indydem Dec 2012 #19

You forgot the rest... PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #20

That does not include: Indydem Dec 2012 #23

Did *I* fucking say any of those things? PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #25

Not directly, perhaps. Indydem Dec 2012 #28

Wow... you gun owners *are* paranoid. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #30

Then what is the solution? Indydem Dec 2012 #32

I don't recall claiming to have a solution. Please show me where I have. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #35

"decrease availability of firearms" Indydem Dec 2012 #39

so now you're just making up shit? the vast majority here are for sensibly increasing gun regulation bettyellen Dec 2012 #77

Glue on ya dude shintao Dec 2012 #49

PeaceNikki, please accept my apology. I reached my frustration limit, something triggered it. jody Dec 2012 #21

I get that you're pissed that every shooting is being lauded as a statement for gun control. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #27

What does your post have to do with the OP? Control-Z Dec 2012 #5

Mea culpa, perhaps only DU regulars in the Gun Control & RKBA (Group) understand. nt jody Dec 2012 #8

That's a non-answer. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #14

That's all I have to say about that. nt jody Dec 2012 #16

good. you should do that more. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #17

Works for me. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #18

nothing TorchTheWitch Dec 2012 #54

What do we need to know about the topic other than Chorophyll Dec 2012 #13

Before Skinner's amnesty OP would have been exiled and ostracized to the Gun Control & RKBA (Group). jody Dec 2012 #26

But... so it's here in GD and you're commenting on it. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #33

See #36 nt jody Dec 2012 #37

Saw it. Thank you for your service. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #43

The problem was the 'headline' I chose. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #45

"They're scared"! Not in the least. I compete at the national/world level with those from the jody Dec 2012 #56

Yup, but I would clarify by stating that every gun death *IS* a case for gun control. tledford Dec 2012 #69

Thanks and to repeat, I don't have a problem with the OP, just that it would be banished to jody Dec 2012 #47

Wow. This story is really a chain of failure. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #67

Honestly, there are several points to be had from this story: PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #6

There is a direct connection between domestic violence and many, many gun deaths Chorophyll Dec 2012 #9

Oh, I know. I know. Here in SE WI, we've had 2 mass shootings this year. Both vets. One was DV. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #11

Ugh. So many issues to be addressed. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #15

It's really, really hard to do anything about a threat like that MH1 Dec 2012 #79

Well I think in WI it can be construed as a Class H felony HereSince1628 Dec 2012 #84

Having a gun is not a guarantee that you will be able to win the fight. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #59

Not having a gun may guarantee you will lose the fight. Don't carry a spare tire if you don't care jody Dec 2012 #64

Yes, a gun is JUST like a spare tire... PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #65

I'm not suggesting you did. Deep13 Dec 2012 #81

OK, but he still shot her with HIS gun first. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #82
