So predictable . . .

Another shooting and the cry goes out for more guns.

All the gunner sites (ammoland, guns.com, breitbart, the blaze etc) are almost screaming "gun control doesn't work! Gun free zones attract mass killers!" when in fact the opposite is true. Very few mass shootings occur in gun free zones, most happening in public places or private homes where there is no restriction on guns. Not that facts will have any effect on the rhetoric.

Then there's this: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/11748908/Gnomes-concealed-lethal-arms-cache.html

Police in the UK discovered several illegal guns hidden in a garden and the gunners say, "See, most strict gun controls in the world and they don't work! And they were used in a gun free zone so that law doesn't work either!" Never mind that the murder rate in the UK is 1/100,000 compared to 4.7/100,000 in the US according to the UN.

None of the actual research means anything to the cold dead hands gun nuts, they've got Lott (the most blatant liar in gun "research&quot and they don't need anything else. They cling to their masterbatory mythology of more guns less crime and gun free zones attracting mass killers.

The NRA is pushing "they're gonna' take yer gunz" and "better buy one NOW!" and "you have to protect yourself" so gun sales will go up as always.

It's really a sick, sick cycle . . .

1. We are so terribly immature here in America, when it comes to our toys.

I get it, if you proposed to take away my Playstation, I might get annoyed.

But if you told me playstations were used to kill people by the thousands, I would have to GROW the fuck up and suck it up and turn it in.
