In reply to the discussion: (GOP) Bill proposes massive overhaul to Georgia gun laws (guns everywhere all the time) [View all]Hoyt
(54,770 posts)16. Most mayors are against guns in their cities too. Why, because more guns are not the answer.
Restrict them for everyone -- like most countries do.
As to racist Lester Maddox -- an uneducated man at best -- he started with guns, then went to ax handles so he could sell them for a small amount to the racist who loved him for chasing Black famalies -- including women and little kids -- down the street with his friggin gun. You find me a confederate flag waver and I'll show you a racist and gun toter. I'd rather the worthless souls leave them at home.

OP
My cause is to expose GOP/NRA gun insanity for what it is - extremism - it is not "mainstream"

Or you could look at an incident like the mass shooting at Wedgwood Baptist in 1999

That's great -- we'll just let criminals and racketeers take over the distribution of guns.

"Bigotry is bigotry" -- No it is not. I would hope you too detest folks like Lester Maddox.
