Phil Hands for February 18, 2018

Wouldn’t have done any good in Las Vegas. Just like an armed guard didn’t stop this latest insult in Florida, or the armed guard who was the only one shot at the Holocaust museum, or the two armed guards shot first at Columbine, it isn’t counseling, IT’S TOO EASY ACCESS TO GUNS! Florida is famously lax, and then there’s their good people, like Zimmerman being armed and dangerous.

The first place hasn’t done squat in a long time.

A major Republican donor issued a remarkable ultimatum on Saturday, vowing to withhold money from GOP candidates unless they support a ban on selling military-style guns to civilians.

“It’s the end of the road for me,” Al Hoffman Jr., a prominent Florida real-estate developer, told The New York Times. “For how many years now have we been doing this — having these experiences of terrorism, mass killings — and how many years has it been that nothing’s been done?”

Why is Congress a gun free zone?

Duh; without the gun, what would have happened? You Americans don’t seem to see the obvious.

Three traveling billboards appeared for all to see in Miami, in Florida, around the country, and around the world.

The billboards read:

1. Slaughtered In School

2. And Still No Gun Control?

3. How Come, Marco Rubio?

Brandon: Stop throwing the blame around Marco. The fact is if you didn’t enable mentally unstable 19 year olds to purchase AR-15s, then we wouldn’t have this tragedy. Hope that $3.3 million you received from the NRA was worth the blood from these kids and those at Pulse.

Wonder which bloc is bigger, single issue NRA voters, or students eligible to vote who don’t want to be shot. Got a feeling, after The (latest) Florida shooting we’re going to find out.

Aren’t representatives supposed to be like us?

Current findings are consistent with previous surveys showing that Congress exercises private school choice at a disproportionately higher rate than average Americans.

Only 10 percent of all students in the U.S. attend private schools, yet well over 30 percent of senators exercised private school choice.

RIGHT BIAS

These media sources are moderately to strongly biased toward conservative causes through story selection and/or political affiliation. They may utilize strong loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by using appeal to emotion or stereotypes), publish misleading reports and omit reporting of information that may damage conservative causes. Some sources in this category may be untrustworthy. See all Right Bias sources.

Factual Reporting: MIXED

Notes: The Daily Signal is a conservative American news website founded in June 2014. The publication focuses on politics, culture, and other stories. It is published by The Heritage Foundation, a conservative think tank. The Daily Signal has very strong right wing bias in reporting and wording. While we were unable to find failed fact checks there are many articles that are linked to far right media sources, hence we give it a mixed factual rating based on very high bias and poor sourcing.

$eriou$ly, Congre$$ ha$ NO INTENTION of actually doing ANYTHING about the $hooting$. Ju$t wi$h we knew why…

A piece of the puzzle to be certain. Another piece that is conspicuously absent comes before the first punctuation mark in the Second Amendment; a well-regulated militia. Training. Education. Supervision. Like Sweden.

Typical. It’s got to be the state-run schools. Certainly not the HOME!

I wonder…are there metal detectors at the doors into NRA headquarters??

How many more children have to die for your gun worship?

Ban AR-15s, the gun of choice for school mass murderers in America.

We should repeal the 2nd Amendment.

Maybe the first place is the home. School should not be held responsible for teaching kids how to live.
