Dear Chuck Heston fans.... (by George Schlatter at HuffPost)
George Schlatter

04.22.2007

Dear Chuck Heston fans:

I thought now was the sickest time in our history, It just got sicker.

CHO fired 100 bullets from an automatic weapon he had just bought by mail. He had been a mental patient but the power of the NRA prohibited including that information as part of his only one minute gun clearance allowed by the NRA.

He got one of his brand new guns on the internet ($580 on a credit card) but the power of the NRA prohibited more than a one minute back ground check, so he got his clearance, and his shinny new GUNs.

I cannot believe the discussions that are now going on with the NRA Nutzies

Hey I have another idea that the NRA Wackos will love.

Get rid of these pesky regulations, let's go ahead and arm the kids but don't stop there. Let every man, woman, and CHILD carry concealed weapons. They actually said that if only one kid in that classroom was "packing," that student could have stopped CHO.

...(snip)...

We could use this monumental tragedy to come together and establish some real rules but the NRA has dug in even deeper and will never budge. Any restrictions takes away their constitutional right to form a Militia. Remember... that was with Muskets.

NOW this truly IS the sickest time in our history. It just got sicker. The border guards are still in prison, and this week Bush's friend and the most important lawyer in the world said UNDER OATH "I can't remember" 74 times.
.......(more)

1. Wow so much misinformation so little time
You know it ok to argue for or against something.

but you at least need to get your information correct, else you look like a fool...

2. Cho used two semi-automatic pistols not automatic and a court said he was not a threat to others
meaning he was not reported to NICS under existing ATF guidelines.

I believe the article did spell "Cho" correctly.

An argument is more effective if it's based on truth not lies. :shrug:
