Thousands march against gun violence in Washington

thousands march…. millions stay home shaking their heads wondering how people can be so gullible…. if gun control works, why aren’t Chicago, NYC, and Washington DC, the LOWEST in gun deaths? lemmings.

It would be interesting to know how many of these protesters who were out using dead children as tools to try and take guns away from everyone…are actually pro-abortion.

first of all, not to knock a loss but im pretty sure almost all those “I was shot” posters are people who were victims of criminals with ILLEGAL guns. I highly doubt a significant percentage of those deaths were related to legal guns in the hands of their legal owners.

It is high time that congress take violence desensitization through various media and mental illness seriously.

The problem is that too many legal owners evidently have such troubles keeping their guns out of the hands of the criminals… perhaps laws are needed to encourage these legal owners to store their guns properly and not keep them in such a way as to allow mentally ill family members to get at them. Stupid people are being allowed to buy what they don’t have the brains to keep safe.

Lisa,

There would be little demand in the black market for stolen guns if modern day inner city gangs were treated like the threat to society that they are.

As it is, we allow gangs to own the streets of many of our cities, and then run the prisons where we send them (on occasion) as if the whole thing is a joke.

They scoff at the weakness of our system, and continue their crimes and mayhem with little consequence.

They are the market for stolen guns.

I notice NO estimate of the crowd size was given. Estimates are always given when the medias preferred stories are run. Maybe there weren’t that many regular folks mainly politicians?

Best example of gun control: China.
Worst example of gun control: Somalia
Where do you want to be?

Keep marching, that is your right but answer me a few questions first. If Adam Lanza’s assault rifle was recovered from the trunk of his car then who fired 233 rounds from assault rifle, it could not have been Adam Lanza, dead don’t go around shooting. 9/11 was staged to trick you into surrendering your civil liberties and human rights, so how would I go about disarming you? Stage school shooting of course. You know what…I have been great opponent of eugenics but I am no more. The time has come to rid the world of brainless filth contaminating the earth with its presence. I say hit them with GMOs, inject dozens of viruses through vaccination, fluoridise their water, finally, have them disarmed and shot. Keep marching morons for you will not be marching much longer. Oh yes, before I forget… They introduced gun control in Australia which resulted in violent crime shooting up by 69%.

The Washington Post estimated attendance at 900 +/-, hardly the “thousands” headlined above. Someone’s agenda is showing.

Just to clarify what the “journalists” at Reuters did not: One Million Moms for Gun Control, an anti-weapons advocacy group organized this rally (http://onemillionmomsforguncontrol.org/). Not to be confused with One Million Moms (http://onemillionmoms.com/) an organization dedicated to reducing violence portrayed in the media. Call me cynical, but I doubt that many actors would show up at a rally organized by the latter.

That’s still no more than attend the many large gun shows that go on all the time. What are those political maxims? If it don’t play in Peoria, that dog won’t hunt.

Jesus told his disciples to buy a sword to protect themselves, that’s basically what I did, since guns are the current versions of swords.
I wonder what religion the marchers are, if any? Maybe satan worshipers trying to help their master inflict death and suffering?

The best gun and violent crime control in the world is in China. Why don’t we just let them take over here? They manage to do it without an undue number of people in prison too. For that matter, the Soviets and Nazis were a lot better too. So why did we fight wars against them? For fun? Do any of these people know?

Freedom brings risk. Risk means bad things will happen. Taking away freedom also has always, everywhere, throughout history brought unspeakable, mass produced evil of huge proportions. Not one State has ever had wide spread prosperity and peace without freedom and without weapons. Now we have people who “believe” they can make gold from grass clippings and people take them seriously. Whooppee!!

In the city with some of the nation’s strictest gun laws: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/01/27/at-least-5-die-in-shootings-on-bloody-chicago-day/
