Reddy Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 2, 2013 -> 03:48 PM) So again, to the point you never responded to the first time you made this argument -- 2 years ago Obama should have laid down and signed any Tea Party bill that crossed his desk, right? Meaning we shouldn't have Obamacare as law right now. in what world did the tea party control all of congress? the tea party is just loud, they still weren't the majority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeSox Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 2, 2013 -> 03:42 PM) And to what degree we don't know. Maybe the school will keep a single gun locked in a safe only to be used in emergencies. It's up to the individual school districts. All this is doing is providing people with police-level training (the same test administrated to police officers) in the use of firearms. Who cares, you made an polar-opposite prediction from what Balta said and indicated that we're going to be getting strong gun controls and that talking about arming teachers is just silly because it's not going to happen.

Because 600 people voluntarily signing up for free firearms training = arming all teachers with guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DukeNukeEm Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Tyranny of the majority. Happened with Bush, happening with Obama. The one way to really stem the tide of it is leaving more up to state and local governments, but the liberal obsession with forcing others to do what you want them to has prohibited that.

BigSqwert Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 This is what we're dealing with: “A holstered gun is not a deadly weapon. . . . But anything can be used as a deadly weapon. A credit card can be used to cut somebody’s throat,” said Rep. Dan Dumaine, an Auburn Republican. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't find that funny. You're pretty bad an interpreting my feelings. Besides, people could use anything as a weapon to defend themselves. Credit cards, hammers, pencils, you name it.
