Senseless gun death. Girlfriend killed by graduation gift.

I hate posting this kind of stuff.

High school grad gets a gun as a reward. Wonderful award after 12 years of schooling. Nothing says, 'You're now a responsible member of a gun toting society" than a gun gift. I hope it was wrapped up in a coffin shaped box. They needed a coffin a few minutes later when 12 years of schooling proved not enough. Not enough.

Teen kills girlfriend

The story gets worse. His girlfriend, Lucina Luna, was shot in her own home. By her boyfriend. Who got a gun as a graduation gift. From her father.

Yes. 'I love you. Dad thinks you're great. Here's a gun for you. Now shoot me with it and seal our lives together. Forever.'

Your 2nd Amendment explained

In the debate about gun control, many gun enthusiasts argue that the Second Amendment to the Constitution was written, not for the purposes of hunting or even self-defense, but specifically to give people the ability to rise up against the government when they no longer support that government.

These gun enthusiasts further hold the reference to the word militia in the Second Amendment refers to the armed populace in general. As such, this militia has the right to own the type of weapons that would be required to overthrow the government if need be.

Let’s take a look at exactly what the Founding Fathers put in the Constitution and other laws about the Militia:


Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution lists among the powers of Congress: To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions; To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

Article II, Section 2: The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States;

Amendment 2: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Amendment 5: No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger;

That is every reference to the Militia in the Constitution. The description of the Militia in Article I sounds very much like our country’s National Guard. It is supposed to be well-organized with officers and training.

From Myth

Another one

No good news today. A portion of our country continues to seek justice in the streets resulting in vengeance.

Another child is shot to death by police for holding a toy gun. Link to current story.

In the Cleveland shooting, a video exists which hasn't been viewed by the public. The police describe the video as being clear.

No one is saying what is clear.

Clearly a 12 year old.

Clearly dead after being shot.

Clearly playing with a toy gun.

Clear quality video.

So much for public safety if 12 year old children are shot for playing with guns.

Another gun kills an innocent child ... North Carolina

An eighth grade boy was shot to death in Kentucky while sleeping in a Comfort Inn hotel room. The bullet struck him in the head but death was not instantaneous. His family tried to revive him and a panic laced called to 911 brought EMTs. But, the young man died.

Who shot him? A felon with a gun staying in another room. 'Ops! My gun decided to shoot a bullet through a wall when I wasn't looking.' The shooter wasn't in the adjacent room. We don't know what kind of a gun killed the young man. Police aren't saying.

I'm saying our gun loving society looks upon such a death as acceptable. The whole 'it's better that we have guns to protect us from the government. Much better. Much, much better.'

It's better we don't leave guns laying around in hotel rooms loaded.

Current details of the story.

Shot to death by police

Here's my version of events.

Some one steals my car. I had it parked in my drive way. I never heard a thing. Slept right through it.

Report the theft to the police ...

A week later, I hear something in my drive way. Steps on my front porch. Luckily I'm sleeping in my 12 gauge pajamas. Waving my jammies in a threatening manner, I shout, Who goes there!?

Smith and Wesson answer with 16 body shots. I die on the floor of my own home. Killed by the police serving a no knock, shoot to kill warrant.

Turns out, the police say I'm a sleep walking drug dealer living a second life (which also ended after my conversation with Mr. Smith and Mr. Wesson.)

The police toss my wife out of the bed and begin searching for my drug inventory, meth lab, and the million dollars in drug money I've hidden in my house.

Two days later, they call off the search. Two days. Did I say, two days. Yes, I did. Two days after I died on the floor of my home, the police stop tearing my home apart.

They didn't find a thing.

My family grieves. They can't bury me in my own clothes because the police seized everything in the search. My surviving wife doesn't have her own clothes to wear to the funeral.

And, the police have what to say? Nothing. By the way, felons have a right to carry guns in Georgia but homeowners don't have a right to carry in their homes.

Guns don't kill little kids

A child commits suicide with his father's gun. At school. In a bathroom.

Another gun that never saved a life.

Felon shoots family. Had a right to a gun. Are gun rights more important than voting rights in Georgia?. Two similar issues. One as deadly as the other.

Link

The link to the real story comes first in this story. Too complicated for me to explain or spin.

Convicted felon on charges unrelated to having killed his son in a hunting accident years ago, shoots and kills his daughter and her six kids.

Sheriff Schultz identified the victims as Sarah Lorraine Spirit, 28; Kaleb Kuhlmann, 11; Kylie Kuhlmann, 9; Johnathon Kuhlmann, 8; Destiny Stewart, 5; Brandon Stewart, 4; and Alanna Stewart, who was born in June.

Under Florida law, this convicted felon still had a right to a gun. Same as in Georgia.

Yes, convicted felons have a right to own a gun or guns. Just sign some paperwork. Get your gun. Even if you have killed in the past.

Story on gun rights in Georgia which clarify my assertion.

The State Board of Pardons and Paroles restored firearms rights for more than 1,400 felons between 2008 and 2013, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Sunday.

The board restored gun rights for 666 people last year, which is 10 times the number of pardons that restored firearms rights six years ago.

The overall number includes 358 felons who were convicted of violent crimes, 166 who were convicted of drug crimes and 32 who killed another person.

Georgia does spend millions trying to stop voter fraud. So does Georgia restore voting rights to felons? They can. Someone needs to see how many times killers get to vote.

Story from Bloomberg on the huge investigation into voting fraud
allegations.

Here's the lead paragraph:

Georgia’s top elections official gave a nonprofit group that has registered more than 85,000 minority voters until tomorrow to produce every record it has, in what critics say is an effort to suppress minority voting in November’s tight race for the U.S. Senate.

Present details on the fraud allegations,"Investigators [said] they can confirm 25 applications[are under investigation of fraud out] of more than 85,000 submitted to the Georgia Secretary of State’s office.

Story in the AJC.

That's 25 allegations of fraud in 13 counties and 85,000 forms. Horrible. Must be stopped.

Governor's man says, "@LoriGearyWSB uncovers massive voter fraud by Democrats. We now know how Carter [Democratic candidate for Governor] plans to get to those 200,000 new voters he says he needs."

From the Republican candidate for Congress, "The fact that an organization led by a well-known Nunn supporter would attempt to illegally register voters is unacceptable."

Brother practicing for cowboy movie kills sister on her birthday.

I didn't make up the story. Wish it never happened.



Yeah, the 50 year old man decided to relive his younger days of playing cowboys and Indians. In some parody of Hollywood gunslingers, the brother tried twirling his pistol with his finger. He dropped the loaded weapon. It went off. Hit his sister. Killed her in front of her kids.

Birthday parties aren't what they used to be since your Mom took away your cap pistol.

Gun kills again. No life safe

Where are the good guns in the hands of good guys?

So here's the next story in a long line of stories about kids killing themselves with a good gun gone bad.

Link

DeKalb County detectives have charged the uncle and aunt of a 2-year-old boy who was shot to death Monday in Stone Mountain with child cruelty and reckless conduct, Capt. Steve Fore said.
“They say they found the child shot,” Fore told The Atlanta Journal Constitution. “The child may have shot himself.”

Another post on guns that have never saved a life

How many kids were accidently shot with the family gun in one month.

Eleven.

NRA News shamelessly promotes viewer-submitted pictures of children with firearms, some engaged in unsafe gun practices

Meanwhile, these accidental shootings by children in the U.S. happened within just one month:

August 2nd - September 2nd, 2014.

A 7-year-old boy shot himself at his family’s homemade shooting range in California:

The boy was reportedly firing a single-shot, .22 bolt action youth rifle under his father’s supervision. When the boy cried out, his father noticed there was a small hole in his shirt, then blood.
A 9-year-old girl accidentally shot and killed her instructor with an Uzi in Arizona:

A 13-year-old boy was shot and killed by his 14-year-old friend while they were handling a rifle in Oklahoma:

Police say initially the other teens said the victim shot himself with the gun, but after questioning them separately, police say the 14-year-old accidentally fired the gun … Police say the rifle used was stolen from a home in Midwest City in 2011. Right now investigators don’t know how the gun ended up in the teens hands.

Our children shot snd killed 13 times more often than our Afghanistan war troops

For every member of our armed forces who died in Afghanistan during the 11 years of that war, 13 of our children were shot to death in the USA.

We should be ashamed.

Seven, count them, seven children will be shot to death today. Why? So some numb nuts can carry his AR15 in Walmart. So some biker can sit in a bar with gun. So your priest can wear a gun during Mass.

Guns anywhere.

A News21 investigation of child and youth deaths in America between 2002 and 2012 found that at least 28,000 children and teens 19-years-old and younger were killed with guns. Teenagers between the ages of 15 and 19 made up over two-thirds of all youth gun deaths in America.

Vote pro-gun Republican today and you kill seven kids tomorrow. Tell me that guns reduce crime. Tell me how safe you feel with a six gun on your hip in Sunday school. Tell me that you're upset because a journalist got beheaded in the Middle East.

When it is your child, grandchild, or a neighbors child dying from a gunshot wound, tell me it is just the price of freedom.

Right ...

Gun justice in Georgia

Is there a double standard for gun deaths in Georgia?

Consider the 3 year old child who allegedly shot himself in the face. Mom's in jail without bail.

Isn't there something wrong about that?

In another state, a five year old boy shoots his 2 year old sister to death.

No one in jail. No charges. Just an accident.

How about the father who shoot his 15 year old son to death while rafting?

No one in jail. Just an accident.

In one weekend, there were two tragic deaths by gun.

In one case, no charges. The other case, boom. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200 dollars.

Think about it. It does no good to keep a mother away from a hospitalized child. Want to charge her? Fine. Set bail.

68 year old woman shot to death in Helen, Georgia

Yes, the open carry of loaded weapons is a legal right. The Guns Everywhere law was signed by our Goobernator Nathan 'I am stupid' Deal and went into effect on July 1st.

Last night, about 10:40 pm, a tourist from Texas was walking down Main Street in our German themed town of Helen, Georgia. Some open carry dude on the other side of the street shoots himself in the hand. The bullet passes through his hand, goes across the street, and wounds the 68 year old woman. She dies on the sidewalk.

Guns don't kill people in Georgia. Accidents don't happen here either. People make bad choices and they suffer the consequences. That's the word on being poor, being a teen aged mother, on college students being raped, etc, etc, ...

So I'm waiting to hear about the evil decision in Helen. Was it the Goobernator making open carry a legal right? Or, was it being a visitor in a tourist trap?

Local story here.

"Guns don't kill people. God kills people.

Five year old boy gets a rifle for his birthday. Mom goes outside leaving him to guard his two year old sister. Boy wants to try out his rifle. Shoots baby sister to death.

Grandma says, "It was just her time to go."

Minister says it was "God's will."

Father says it will never happen again.

Cops call it an accident.

Little boy quoted as saying, "Whoa! I like my new gun!"



Guess which quotes are real?

Father shoots and kills his family ... on Father's Day

How do I start this post? A man shoots his family to death Does so on Father's Cay. No previous signs of distress. Called his own father to wish him a Happy Father's Day.

Then, he shoots his 30 year old wife, a 9 year old daughter, and a 2 year old son.

Let the NRA choke on it's, Well, he would have used a knife if he didn't have a gun.

How about a reality check? Maybe he would not have killed anyone if he didn't have a gun!

NRA and gun lovers, Just pull your heads out of your assholes.

It requires nothing to pull a trigger 4 times. It doesn't take courage. It isn't intimate or personal.

It's cold, impartial, and inhuman. But quick and easy for a coward or a soldier.

If the man only had a knife, would he have chopped a 2 year old son to death? I bloody well don't think so.

The gun killed that child. No gun, then at least two children survive.

Stop the killing now. When there are no gun, there will be no gun crime.

Guns everywhere stance already kills innocent bystander

Self defense is a bitch if you've been drinking. It must happen like this:

Someone bumps your elbow just as you're lifting your beer bottle. Instead of hitting your mouth with gently rounded lips of a high quality beer bottle, your stick your nose in beer. Snorting warm beer and rich beer foam, you turn quickly to identify the careless lout who spilled three cents worth of your $3.75 beer.

Following standard Cowboy bar protocol, you snarl, "Watch it, buddy!"

Robert DeNiro spins around with a cocky look and says, "You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talkin' to? You talkin' to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the fuck do you think you're talking to?"

Then, things move outside for more theatre and weak insults. Insults outside bars used to be so robust and nearly lethal in the days before the Guns Everywhere Law. Since then, no one really cares to whip out a cutting 'Yo Moma' quip. Now it's whip out the semi-auto 9 mm with 17 shot capacity, a bayonet mounted on the accessory rail.

Yes. A bayonet not a laser sight. Only a wuss uses a laser sight in a bar shooting.

Triggers are gently massaged. Steely eyed combatants close one steely eye to save their night vision and exchange salvoes.

Now here's the next set of rules, if you're wounded but standing, you stagger around in front of the onlookers saying, 'He shot me. Look. I'm shot. Why did he have to do that?'

If you're on the ground, wounded or not, shout, 'Help me up. I'm going to kill that guy who killed me before I die. I swear.'

If you're unwounded and still standing after your 17 shots, Run! Run like hell you coward because you've probably shot 17 innocent people killing at least one.

Good man with gun kills neighbor for feeding deer.

A few good men can make a difference. Not this one who never had a criminal record before murdering his neighbor.

Glad he didn't live next door to me!

Gets worse. The murderer climbed out of a basement window with his buckshot loaded 12 gauge. His wife was screaming for blood, "Shoot! Shoot! Shoot again!" according to witnesses.

The murderers son had made the usual threats as well. Something along the lines of I'm going to burn down your house with you in it after I break your arms and legs so you can't even crawl out. Pretty much the usual Double Dog Dare you not to move out of the country.

Police shoot 93 year old woman to death. Don't know why. Won't talk about it.

Authorities in Hearne, Texas are refusing to say if a 93-year-old woman was armed when a police officer shot her at least five times on Tuesday.

According to KBTX, Pearlie Golden was at her home on Karney Street when she was shot by the Hearne police officer. Golden, who was known as Ms. Sully by her friends, was later pronounced dead after being transported to St. Joseph Hospital.

“Hearne police are not ready to say whether Golden was armed or why the officer felt threatened,” KBTX reported.

Guns on campus, Arkansas style. It's illegal there.

So we have the police checking out a college students who is asleep in his car. Well, he's sleeping off some binge drinking.

The car gets searched. Is there probable cause just because he's drunk? Yeah. We don't know if he's just drunk. Maybe he has a dead body in the trunk. Maybe more than booze. Doesn't really matter. He's on a college campus pass out in a car. No reasonable expectations of privacy.

What do we find? He's a concealed carry permit holder and has two guns with him.

Ops! No guns on campus. Against the law. Sort of like drinking and driving. Or, drinking yourself into a stupor in a public place.

So, back to that wonderful statement about how responsible gun owners have never been caught breaking the law.

Friday afternoon. You're a responsible gun owner. Saturday morning just another drunk with junk in the trunk.

I like the logic of the pro-gun kids.

Burden of proof. Everyone is responsible until convicted ...

Kill me. No. Kill me first. Kids want to see gun collection. Get laser sighted and killed.

So that thing again about how guns don't kill. People kill. Well, some dude with a laser sight just shot kid to death. Red dot on the forehead. Pause. Bang. And, oh no, officer. I never keep my guns loaded.

An 11-year old boy, looking at guns with his cousin and uncle, was shot and killed in Pike County Saturday afternoon. His uncle has been charged with criminal homicide.

The name of the child has not been released but police say he lived in Wayne County and attended the Wallenpaupack Area School District.

Police notified the school of the death and the school will have grief counselors available this week.

State Police were called at 5:35 p.m. Saturday to Keystone Drive in Wild Acres, a gated community in Delaware Township.

The home is owned by William Olm, the victim’s grandfather. The child was visiting the home where his uncle, Chad Olm, lives in a room in the basement next to the laundry room.

Hey, some day I want to live in my dad's basement next to the laundry room. Kids will think I'm so cool if I have a gun safe and no safe guns.
