D***! she's ugly

it really shows her racism. i mean .."yeehaw" guns.

i never holler yeehaw. maybe yippie ki yay...but not yeehaw

That means that according to her ignorant dumba$$ that other semi auto's are ok like the AK?

 

[churchmouse]

Do they really think that by doing this he is going to start a movement?

Just like voting 3rd party.
It may give you a nice warm feeling but then you realize you have peed your pants wearing a dark suit And nobody notices.

CNN finds self-proclaimed NRA Republican who now questions why he owned an AR-15

Richard Small is a self proclaimed "NRA Republican" and long-time gun owner who says the Uvalde, Texas, shooting made him question why he owned an AR-15-style gun.

Might be intersting if a more trustworthy news outlet did a deep dive into Mr. Small's actual background.

I would say he could go **** himself but with a name like that......

 

[chipbennett]

To each their own but this thought process is dangerous.
Did he cut it up and dispose of it. Now that would be making a statement but nothing would change. Just like voting 3rd party.
Admittedly I did not read the thing. There has just been a mass of input of late

Edit, Ok he used a hammer. That’s crazy. To beat a tool into a worthless pile of pieces makes no sense. None.

Apparently, the irony is lost on the virtue signaler: the hammer (blunt instrument) is used to kill more people each year than the rifle he used to hammer to destroy.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Ever notice how many more of these stories you hear about on these "news" outlets about "gun owners" going wobbly and getting rid of their guns after these tragedies and rarely, if ever, about the growth of gun ownership among minorities and women?

Solid point.

I tried searching for information. I used just his name and got numerous hits on male anatomy.
Further searching found this.
“I’m a gun advocate," he said. "I believe in the Second Amendment. But this AR, after what I saw in Uvalde, I’m done with it... I’m sick over it." He turned the gun over to local police.

I wonder if he will be giving up driving, considering the deaths associated with it.

 

[Tyler-The-Piker]

You're killing me, smalls!

Looks like ol' Ricky Small should destroy all of his spoons too...

 

[JettaKnight]

Only a fool would not understand that you need an AR-15 to be equal to someone with an AR-15 shooting up a school, theater, concert, etc.

Maybe he gave up the AR15 to get a SCAR 17.


And if I hear another brain dead talking head say AK15...

 

[1nderbeard]

I don't doubt the veracity of the story. Even here there are people giving up the ar15s. That kind of thinking doesn't make sense to me, but to each their own.

 

[grillak]

I don't know who Richard Small is but I have heard of Little Richard

whooooo!

i explain to a lot people that concept

my son was killed by a drunk driver over 30 yrs ago. i did not at anytime advocate for the removal of cars.

it was not the car's fault.

 

[KG1]

No one will ever guilt me into giving up something I own because of something someone else did. Not gonna happen.

 

[STEEL CORE]

Little Richard feels like a big man now I bet.

more like worm food

JettaKnight: The AK-15 isn't real, it can't hurt you.

[Leadeye]

Maybe he was afraid of it.

 

[grillak]

Maybe he was afraid of it.

only after his "life altering experience with a lifeguard"

for the first 20 mins

1st_ sorry to hear about your son

2nd_ When people have stated... "What would you say to the parents of a kid killed by a gun?", I have replied with something similar... "What would you say to the parents of a kid killed by a car?"

 

[actaeon277]

Can't fool you.






I was exhausted from putting flags down, and then picking them back up (for Memorial Day)
So, I slept 12 hours.
Which did not help
Now... maybe I'll get to sleep now.
