Shut the FUck UP Pundits

[malaise]

The common sense thing to do is ban the fucking guns - I'm sick of this shit.

1. The US is a nation of mourners. Shit happens, many cry and whine, congress doesn't do

shit, people buy guns and ammo, NRA helps profits go up, and politicians get cash. It's the SOS over and over again in US = United Stupidity!

5. Like they've banned the word dead

they won't say it. Scream!

2. My feelings exactly

I just said that to the TV

3. It's selfish bullshit

"Long as it doesn't happen to me and mine and I can keep my gunz 'cause the TV told me to be skeered, fuck 'em. Men, women, kids... fuck 'em."

4. That would mean castrating them in a sense and they DO NOT

want that for obvious reasons. There was a good article in Time Mag about this.

6. Most of the instigators of wars have been men, as far as I know. Men, are instinctively violent

IMO and I often wonder how much genetics plays a roll ... or if it's conditioned behavior.

7. The article is short but it does mention

that testosterone is the single common factor that no one ever addresses since most of the people who buy and sell guns and make the gun laws are men. Very convenient for them...isn't it?
It also says that our culture makes guys believe that a gun makes you more "manly" and don't most men want to be more manly (perhaps overcompensate for their own lack of masculinity). The 2nd amend is a BS excuse. I wouldn't be surprised if someday they include a case of Viagra for free with every automatic weapon sold.

8. My feelings also. "The same amount of damage could be done with a handgun" sounds like BS n/t

9. I'm not even bothering to watch any

news coverage at all, cable or otherwise. What's the fucking point? The same shit is said, over and over, by the same fucking idiots, whose hands are stained by the rivers of massacre victims' blood. Fuck them all, and fuck their "thoughts and prayers" and "hearts going out".

10. +1, more WMDs in the hands of asshole isn't better
