The P.O.P. Factor

"Just the facts, ma'am." More often than not, politically correct bullshit won't be found here. Pardon me while I exercise my 1st amendment right! I welcome all to my little world of bitches, moans, gripes and complaints, and sometimes, the downright freakin' odd. Take a seat and join me. I love a good story.

Guns or People?

The left wing liberals are on their soapbox these last few days. The shooting in Colorado has the anti gun lobby so excited this election year and once again, we listen to their tired old arguments. How can people actually believe that this shooting never would have happened if people weren't allowed to buy guns? They say, "guns kill people." No matter how many times you remind them that those triggers don't pull themselves, the gun haters still think that if guns were outlawed, the murder rate and shootings would drop. Apparently they forgot about the outlaws, thugs, gangsta wanna-bees and other criminal elements. Do they obey the laws? I wonder why the retarded Democrats think this may work?
Is it working in Illinois? That's the only state that doesn't have a concealed carry law and look at their astronomical murder rate from guns. Coincidence? The citizens can't fight back, can they? Instead, they must cower and endure the fate handed out by the very same democratic assholes who voted for the Obaminator.

Whenever something like this happens, the anti gun assholes climb out from under their rocks and then gun sales skyrocket. Trust me. I work in a gun store. It was a madhouse this weekend.

If guns kill people, then the thousands of guns in my store would have conspired together to wipe out earthlings and take over the world. They haven't. In fact, parents bring their kids along while they shop for guns and accessories and use our indoor firing range. The world is often a cruel, nasty place and parents find it necessary to teach their children how to respect the firearm.
If guns kill people then should we release all the criminals in the jails who have committed murder by using a gun? After all, they didn't do it. The gun did it.

A friend passed these words on to me today,

The gun has no conscience, it merely carries out the will of the one who uses it. Just like cars don't intend to make you drive drunk, the car is innocent and you're not. The pencil didn't intend to make you misspell words, you're the idiot in control of the pencil; be thankful that it gave you an eraser so you can try to fix your grammatical fuck ups, but that would require intelligence, something that is sorely missed in this day and age.


The United States has an out of control drug problem. Can we ban all the drugs when they are often necessary to aid in the healing of the sick? Can we ban alcohol because people drink and drive? I don't know about you, but we repealed prohibition 80 plus years ago and I would like to continue enjoying my one and only vice during my twilight years.




My friends at the ATF would agree that there are just some things you don't screw around with.

Living in a red state, we like our guns and our 2nd Amendment. The Supreme Court held up our Constitutional right to keep and bear arms, but if the left wing, libtards have their way, we could be literally fighting for those rights in the next 4 years.

This video is of a gunstore owner who had been interviewed by their local news media. Mr. Pendergast states, "The only reason that there's a 1st Amendment is because there's a 2nd Amendment. Without the 2nd Amendment, the 1st Amendment would go away." Do we really want that?

There is also an inaccurate comment at the end of the video. (The news media? Inaccurate reporting? That would never happen.)
The reporter states that you must have a concealed weapons permit to carry a gun. That is not entirely true. Yes, you must have a CWP to carry the firearm concealed upon your person. However, you don't need a permit to purchase or possess a handgun or rifle or to have one in your home, car, or place of business.
State laws vary, but in our pro 2nd Amendment state, we are required to conduct instant background checks through NICS (National Instant Background Check System) when a person purchases a gun from us. They do not give out information, they only tell you whether to proceed with a sale, delay it or deny it.
It must have been a busy little place over the weekend. They experienced a higher than normal call volume and many of us were put on hold for extended periods of time. That almost never happens.

So who is ultimately responsible for this senseless shooting? The fuckin' idiot who pulled the trigger!
