It's inappropriate and too soon to discuss any gun reforms in response to Sunday’s attack in Las Vegas.
Oh, riiiight. I see. that would be politicizing the tragedy, right?
The pro-poker-player that was there, went to get his gun,
in supporting the cops.
A very -ev move.
"Gee, people are being shot from somewhere that isn't obvious...
lemme run around with a gun while armed police are everywhere.
No way they could mistake me as a possible shooter"
Damn good thing they don't play poker poolside. I'd hate for this guy to be
"too tan" and and think like this.
What we know, that is Isis claims it's behind the attack!
But clearly not
too soon for politicizing the tragedy
First paragraph of the US Constitution:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
And the First Amendment:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
Obviously it's way too soon to petition the government to support the people's right to peaceably assemble
(like say, at a country music show)
or secure the general welfare (like not dying for doing so)
or insure domestic tranquility (like not being shot by our fellow country men)
or to provide for the common defence (like not being shot by our fellow country men)
or to protect out certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
(basically having the freedom to peaceably assemble at a music festival without losing your Life in pursuit of
one's happiness)
All because of the afterthought called the second amendment:
A well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
I guess I missed the news report as to which "well-regulated militia" this arsehole was a member of...
And I can't seem to find the version that mentions high-capacity magazines and "bump-stocks" :dontknow:
