One More Massacre

What about sportsmen who come upon a heard of elk?

I have one of those hundred round drums for my AR-15 but I have never filled it up. Too expensive to load. $40 worth of ammo in one of those magazines.

We need to evenetually ban all cars larger than a Smart Car because the bigger cars and trucks do far more damage and kill more people than the tiny cars. If it just saves one life, it's all worth it. (except for government employees, they can still drive armored Suburbans).

Americans are not apt to add new gun control laws.

By 2004, when the assault weapon ban lapsed, congressional Democrats made no serious attempt to pass an extension. President George W. Bush was content to let it fade into history.

Public sentiment had swung.

According to a Gallup poll in 1990, 78 percent of those surveyed said laws covering the sale of firearms should be stricter, while 19 percent said they should remain the same or be loosened.

By the fall of 2004 support for tougher laws had dropped to 54 percent. In last year’s sounding, 43 percent said they should be stricter, and 55 percent said they should stay the same or be made more lenient.

And neither is the Obama administration.

White House press secretary Jay Carney on Sunday said President Obama was committed to preventing gun crimes by relying on “existing law,” two days after a mass shooting in Colorado sparked renewed debate about gun control.

“There are a number of steps that have been taken and a number of others that can be taken to accomplish that goal,” said Carney, touting the administration’s efforts to increasing the number and effectiveness of “background checks.”

“The president's view is that we can take steps to keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them under existing law. And that's his focus right now,” reiterated Carney.

New gun control laws... no... I don't think so.

Massacre fatigue?

Evidently you know nothing of a "Sportsman."

You'd be describing a POACHER.

One man's "sport" is another man's poaching.

Poachers are criminals so there's really no connection to a law abiding sportsman.

No, to anyone that speaks english without attempting to troll, "poaching" means to take illegally. "Hunting" is legal.

Kinda like the difference between "illegal aliens" and "Immigrants"

I can't believe anyone even dignifies such stupid comments with responses.

Troll is an appropriate label.
