On a related note, saw something profound.  Was dated 2012 I think, so some may have seen it before, but it's just as poignant today.

Dear God, why do you allow so much violence in our schools?  A concerned student

Dear concerned student, I'm not allowed in schools.  God

Says a lot right there.  All one has to do is look at Sodom and Gomorrah to see what happens to a Godless society.  This is the path that the dims and libs are going down.

Good one about God!   

About CNN:  This is why we should not make rash decisions after a tragedy.  As  with CNN, and others, at this time it's shamelessly about agendas!

That's just it.  There are a lot of irresponsible people who get ar 15s and shoot up high schools.  it has happened time and time again.  Only in this gun crazy country though.  

It’s happened like 3 times in schools, a handful of other times in other venues.  There are over 10,000,000 AR-15s in this country.  You lose the argument when you start trying to dictate the rights of millions based on the actions of tens of people.

No one should be walking around with an AR-15 or an AK-47.  No one.  Especially someone who has mental problems.  The only reason for those guns is to kill a bunch of people in a short amount of time.  

Again... 10,000,000+ AR-15s in the United States.  Less than 20 mass shootings using them.  If the only reason for those guns is killing a bunch of people in a short amount of time, then what the hell is everyone doing with the rest of them?  I have multiple valid reasons for owning mine, but I’ll wait while you explain what you think all of us AR-15 owners have planned.

Asking a question of a liberal talking head, better not hold your breath waiting on that answer.

That is not completely untrue about design..... kind of. 

The AR, like other combat rifles, was made to kill humans at some very long ranges.  It can easily reach out over a quarter of a mile to hit a target. 

However......

No school shooting has ever taken place at over a quarter of a mile. In fact most if the victims are within a very few feet, up to point blank range. At those ranges the AR isn’t particularly well suited. It is almost impossible to conceal, reloading can be much slower than with handguns. It is more cumbersome to get on target rapidly at close ranges (defeating your claim of shortest amount of time) and carrying a lot of ammo is a pain in the butt and way more difficult than with handguns. 

It would not be a stretch that in most school shootings a high capacity handgun would have produced more fatalities than the AR. 

So if  you do not think that those kinds of rifles should be owned by anyone,  great. If you are trying to claim that if no one owned that type of rifle, these school shootings would be different, you’re out of your mind.

Actual transcripts of people calling about the guy that were ignored by the FBI

I have no idea what these agents confront on a daily basis, but this call has Red Flags all over it.  And I'd think it would be simple for someone to verify the online information (not me, I can barely logon the Forum).  Big black eye here.

      Baton Rouge split in half?

      No doubt. It's definitely intriguing enough to watch how this all plays out...

      Baton Rouge split in half?

      By tvc184 · Posted

      We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says. I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”. There has to be a law allowing such an appeal. I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows? I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge. Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.  That could get interesting!! Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!! Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.

      What has happened to Jasper?

      By AggiesAreWe · Posted

      Wasn't that 1st round loss last year? Also, during those previous 10 years I am pretty sure Jasper didn't go 2-58 in district play in the other 5 sports.

      Even More From The Friendly muslims!

      By SmashMouth · Posted

      Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...

      Great playoff run, no doubt.  They did make the 3rd round(1 less) 4 of the previous 10 years, only one first round loss. 6 district championships and 4 second place.  The only 4 years Carthage was in the same district. So no, I'm not sure it does make sense.
