These people (whoever the fuck they are) could legally

[arely staircase]

walk around downtown Dallas with their AR15s thanks the wise Republicans in the Texas Lege. I can't imagine what their counterproductive and insulting response to this will be
Full citizenship for AR15s?

[raven mad]

1. Can do the same thing up here.

But they mostly get laughed at. Especially the idiot in the grocery store with his .357 pointed at the artichokes.

[pinboy3niner]

2. Well, you never know when the artichokes might start casting asparagus

[arely staircase]

3. That idiot is my congressman. Yeah that is how red an area I live

in. Loowee Goober is my voice in the people's house.

4. I'm in blue CA but the Rep. for my red district is the House Majority Leader

Kevin McCarthy.

I feel your pain.

8. Some way, somehow, I KNEW someone was going to say that............

[uhnope]

15. that's the second best artichoke joke I've ever heard

kudos to you, sir

[pinboy3niner]

17. Only SECOND best?

I take roughage at that, sir!

7. That's the problem exactly. Until the bad guy with a gun starts shooting, we cascasn't know

whether he's a good guy with a gun or a bad guy with a gun. At least when open carry is illegal we can have some idea when someone walking around in public with a visible long gun might have intent.

9. Open carry is basically brandishing a weapon. At least any kind of long gun.

I thought open carry was a bad idea when I thought it meant old white douche bags with leather holsters and side arms. I say white not because it makes them safer but that kind of fake cowboy bullshit isnt a style of douchebaggerrey that seems to attract many black people. So anyway, that would be stupid enough. But they litteraly made it legal to walk around with a fucking assault rifle in a public space. Could nobody see the potential confusion?

[raven mad]

10. It wasn't a long gun -

it was a Smith .357 bull barrel pistol.

Would have destroyed the artichokes.............

11. Such are the dangers,,,

of a Democracy whose majority is made up of Idiots.

12. Just reported on MSNBC the bullets were armor piercing,... sick o's

[pinboy3niner]

13. Armor-piercing. nt

[uponit7771]

14. thx

[MH1]

16. But armor-piercing bullets are illegal, right? nt

22. So is murder. Hence, if the law isn't working in every single instance

So is murder. Hence, if the law isn't working in every single instance, simply repeal the law and it won't be broken ever again.

23. Soft body armor...

... Like what the police wear, will not stop center-fire rifle cartridges. You need hard plates for that. So basically, every rifle bullet is "armor piercing."

[Jitter65]

18. Maybe now with this blood on their hands something will be done

about fu king guns!

[arely staircase]

20. I have to be honest. Beneath Paul Ryan's fairly eloquent speech

I heard, "we cant do anything because freedom."
