Philip - he of the stent operation. Followed by much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Actually that would have been a fairly certain bet, given age for any normal pensioner - but royalty,

No, he doesn't. You want to hear somebody making a good point? Listen to this guy (the whole thing, it's only a minute and half long):

The problem is society, not guns. Broken homes, glorification of violence, violence as entertainment, substance abuse, lemming-like behavior of people ostracizing and bullying anybody who is different, treating behavior in children with drugs, etc., etc., etc.
The people screaming about gun control because of this incident are either idiots or left-wing authoritarians seeking to eliminate the power to resist their left-wing authoritarian agenda. Instead, they ought to be taking some responsibility for the underlying problems and working to resolve them. _________________

He did make one good point: "you take away guns from american history ... and there is no platform for Bob Costas to share his views on national television". If that isn't a good enough argument for gun control, I don't know what is. |
