I read today how Discovery is cancelling American Guns because people some are complaining that it makes guns look "fun, glamorous and acceptable," So we live in a world where Jersey Shore, Jackass, Toddlers and Tiaras, and Honey Boo Boo are glamorous and acceptable, but an American small business that promotes the 2nd Amendment, family protection and responsibility is a no no. We live in a topsy turvy world.

You can expect this thread to to get little more than a chorus of crickets if not swept under the rug completely.

If the story doesn't fit their agenda then it does not exist.

Isn't it odd how the MSM ignores the endless shootouts in Chicago?

Of course. Gun as protection stories aren't useful to their agenda.

They could descend on that movie theatre and fly over it for days and interview everyone for miles around to show how guns can prevent a tragedy from occurring, but they won't.

Kind of shoots holes in their stories about the "evil gun",

Not only that but America's one of the 5 largest arms exporters on the planet. Our weapons kill wholesale 24/7 and that isn't reported either.

Our weapons kill desperate criminals also!
Some criminals would rather die than go back to prison.

Oh, I agree. I'm not talking about private possession for defense. I was comparing the media calling for more gun control at home while the US Military Industrial Complex is responsible for many more deaths around the world on a daily basis and the media is obediently quiet about that.

Too bad the gun haters will ignore the implications of this. The answer to mass shootings is more people carrying guns, not more gun laws.

People that want to kill people will find a way with or without guns. You take those away, and it could just as easily be a stolen 18 wheeler plowing head on with a school bus full of kids, a hummer mowing people down at a parade, a bomb in a building ect.

There are reasons these things happen where they do is in no small part that the shooters know they have a far better chance of being sucessful if they go to a place where no one has a gun.

This isn't news unless the shooter actually succeeds, giving the press another story to push the socialist anti-gun agenda.

But yet after the Aurora shooting the comment that had someone in the theater been armed they couldn't have stopped the gunman.
I can tell you for a fact that I shoot better than most of the local police here. (I have watched their qualifications)

Sorry for the delay...

I found this chart in this link under sub heading of global arms suppliers, rank and dollar amount.



www.globalissues.org...

I first heard of this in a movie called "Lord of War" with Nicolas Cage. Highly recommended. The movie made the distinction that although minor arms merchants are demonized as scum, the 5 permanent members of the UN Security Council are themselves the largest arms dealers on the planet.

Theres your perspective...

Excellent on all counts. I bookmarked it for reference use (if you don't mind).

Imagine the conspiracy theories if "Jesus" had gunned down people in the "Mayan" theatre.
Pandemonium.

Nice try,dont piggyback issues to promote BS,youtube American Police brutality,and stop trying to sell propoganda.

That man was an American citizen ,he WAS NOT on duty,so save the "spooky"attempt at spindoctoring.

There are ALWAYS more good people than bad ones and its the same in ALL POLICE DEPTS.

Society is also the same which is why we all have an obligation to arm ourselves during everyday life,THERE ARE ALWAYS MORE GOOD PEOPLE THAN BAD ONES.


Now ask yourself who benefits from making us feel and believe that it is the other way around.

This. C'mon ATS, lets get a move on!

PORTland
NewPORT Beach
NEWtown
SANdy Hook
SAN Antonio

Didn't the Dark Knight Rises make a Jesus reference at one point in the film?

Maybe this is an NRA false flag secretly imprinting the message that the Mayan prophecy will kill Jesus? (that is, if He doesn't rise 3 days later)



Okay cause I didn't really add to the thread, here's a story I found to be along the same lines... A second mass shooting was prevented the same day as the CT shooting, but nobody heard about it. One thing thats funny about all the "madness" in the world is that we never notice when things are actually operating exactly as they should be.

Yeah, this is a bit embarrassing for them hey? Crappy timing too!

Could have been a massacre if it wasn't stopped by another gun!

You guys want to elaborate on how this mad man got the gun in the first place?

Thanks. Thats amazing! We're almost DOUBLE Russia's production supply and no one else comes close to either of us. Kind of scary to realize how militarized we are when you think how that force is slowly being turned against us. When I say "us" I mean the US population as citizens.

BTW, Lord of War was an AWESOME movie. I've watched it a few times now. I never really paid attention to that factoid in there.
