In reply to the discussion: Nate Bell Receives Return Fire (Not Withstanding 'Apology') [View all]bvar22
(39,909 posts)25. The Feeding Frenzy continues,
and appears to be accelerating,
to this Arkansan's delight!
Stan LeRoy: I prefer to have trained and competent law officials wield and AR-15, than myself. They know what they are doing, as opposed to a chickenhawk enabler who wants to play "Rambo". You are a sorry excuse for a legislator, shilling for the NRA and gun manufacturers!! Have you no decency.
Jim Keller: If you were in Boston right now, what do you think you would be doing to help that involves an AR-15? It's one thing to own a gun as a civilian and it's something else to keep you gun in the safe and let law enforcement professionals handle a situation like this.
David Grim: Boy, did you step in it. One hateful tweet and your political career is OVAH! Good riddance!
Lily Junker: Poor timing?! You were glib, insensitive, unfeeling, and arrogant. These are terrible qualities for any representative of the people, no matter what party you represent.
Cathy Lange: Stay in Arkansas please!
Sandra Lynch: Too late to make up for your ignorant remarks with an unsympathetic apology. It's politicians like you that are bringing this country down. It's time for big changes in our political arena and this is a prime example of why.
Nicolas Jalbert: Non-apology not accepted, you giant idiot.
Al Natanagara: Mr. Bell, the timing is right for you to quit your job. You are a disgrace to Arkansas, to the USA, to humanity, to planet Earth, and to God. Take your NRA blood money and move to Uranus.
Marina Amin: Mr. Bell, you are an imbecile...
Kim Shutthefrontdoor: We don't cower and we leave the job to the professionals. Just what we need - a bunch of yahoo vigilantes to make the job more difficult for law enforcement. So grateful for real men like Gov Patrick.
Kathy Ryan Smith: This is what happens when people elect immature fools to show off in Little Rock. Do all your friends think this is oh, so funny?
Gus Verde: We do live in a free country and you do have the right to say whatever you think, and thankfully you did, so now we know what a worthless idiot you are. You can't even understand what's wrong with your comment and think it was timing. I feel sorry for the people you supposedly represent. Do them a big favor y resign if you care for them. But again I feel sorry for them if they think you do.
Kate Flynn: You should be ashamed of yourself and your words.
