Anyone who can pass tough and thorough background checks, should be allowed to carry a concealed firearm, and be allowed to do so ANYWHERE. I stress anywhere because I read that had such an ordinance been passed in Virginia, VTU would have banned carrying them on campus.


If just one of those 30 people that lunatic killed (or even just someone close by) had been carrying a concealed firearm, the damage would have been considerably less. The same can be said of every instance of this kind of evil deed. It’s like the Wild West, except only the bag guys have guns. It is ridicules that this ******* (with a known mental condition) could walk into a gun shop and legally purchase a nine millimeter hand gun. And what is even more ridicules, is that he could have obtained one even easier on the street.


It has become painfully evident, that our government is so deep in the pockets of big business, that we will never get what we want and need from them; and that is common sense leadership. I strongly believe that the corruption we see is like the proverbial iceberg, ¾ of it is out of sight.


Face it; all the thugs and crazies have guns. We have as much chance as a one legged man in an *** kicking contest. Let’s give our loved ones a fighting chance.

Realistically, you never know what a person is capable of doing. To outright stereotype a person because they have a mental condition would be considered discrimination by some . And for this reason, this is why people who are insane and deemed not harmful are able to walk the streets unfortunately and breed which is sad.
Whereas back in the late 1800's up to the mid 1960's, this was not the case and individuals who were mental insane/unstable or mental disabled were sterilized and placed in institution for the remainder of their lives. They were not permitted to interact with society. Refer to the following:Timeline of How Mental Disorders Were Treated

Sometimes D life events overshadow the everyday hum-drum of left and right, conservative or liberal. It is a pity you do not see it that way.

And to the Capuchin to your organ grinding, MadameX, the same sentiments to you also.

That's exactly what I thought: You don't attend Va Tech, so you don't represent the victims. I guess since I live in the same country as them, I should speak for them too?!??!!? Typical NeoCon approach to life; try and front as if you care so much about the human condition, masquerading as someone from Tech. Shameful.

Since when did conservatives care about life and the protection of it?

Sparring match? With whom? You give yourself far too much credit. And what exactly ARE your political views anyway?

Isn't it kind of sick, all the media craziness and attention to a few dozen deaths, yet we can't even see our troops come home in flag draped coffins?

Isn't it sick that Amerikkka is paying more attention to this isolated act than the dozens that die in our Iraq occupation every single day? We have 'kids' and innocents dying in Iraq as well.

Yes, it is. And if this country has any honor left at all, Bush and his gang will be put on trial. They spent millions trying to impeach Clinton for getting freaky in the oval office. Why wont they go after Bush?

They wont go after him because there too busy praising him for this selfish and unnecessary war of his that has been killing so many young black men and woman.

Thanks for the read.

Did you ever hear about how they use to treat STDs in men?

[DymondGurl]

Are you referring to the tuskegee airmen?

[Slowburn]

Sorry DymondGurl - that last one (STDs) was meant for MadameX.

[afrocentric]

but it is a wake up call for the white people. Nobody deserve to die though.

It's just that they are always trying to find something to control our blacks and all along it's their own that is killing them.

Am I right about this?
