I am not a frequent poster, but today's events at the Washington Naval Yard inspired me.

US Terrorism Deaths since 9/11: 33 (September 2011)

2. I'm sick and tired of the 2A apologists

Despite the fact that every single one of their arguments blows up in their face every time this happens. Since the main perpetrator is black, maybe this time there will be some sort of rational discussion. (I hope I don't need the sarcasm tag).

I should never have to be scared to do the most mundane of tasks such as grocery shopping. Congratulations NRA. And a big FUCK YOU.
