Only reason he had his gun was because he was AFRAID!!!!

Just another person afraid of the world so he must carry his death machine.

Is there any evidence that explains that the ones who carry guns are actually afraid?

I have seen this be said over and over again, but is there any proof?


Has anyone heard a person who carries a gun state the reason they carry it is because they are afraid to leave their house?

Can anyone shed some light on this, is it truth or a myth made up by the anti-gunners to push their cause?

I'm sick and tired of being stereotyped as a bad guy just because I own a firearm!

OMG HE HAS A GUN HE MUST BE BAD!

Let's call the cops on him!!!


He will kill at any moment!


well, actually, no I won't.


Don't lump me in with people who kill and actually ARE ASSHOLES!

I am not one of them and don't appreciate being stereotyped!

What is Robin Thickes song, Blurred Lines, really about? WARNING: Violent content!

Robin Thicke’s summer hit Blurred Lines addresses what he considers to be sounds like a grey area between consensual sex and assault. The images in this post place the song into a real-life context. They are from Project Unbreakable, an online photo essay exhibit, and feature images of women and men holding signs with sentences that their rapist said before, during, or after their assault. Let’s begin.

How could a song like this be so popular?

Maybe I am the only one who feels this way...

With all the gun talk, isn't it a little strange to have the sarcasm icon is dripping blood?


I feel like now it is a little much. maybe I am wrong though?

Johnson is a documented member of the Edgemont Criminals, a Moreno Valley-based street gang, according to the DA’s office. He was on parole from a 2011 burglary conviction and had not reported to his parole officer as required, according to the DA’s office.

Is there REALLY ANY WAY to end gun violence

without banning all guns?

Yes, we could reduce the amount of gun deaths by regulating them more, But would we ever get rid of gun deaths?

Is there a suitable number of gun deaths that will not cause people to get upset?


I feel that until there are no more guns we will always have gun deaths and that there is NO WAY to completely end this.


EDIT: Another question: With the talk about comparing the US to the rest of the world about gun violence. Do those here in the US feel more of a right to gun than other countries because of our background and how our country was founded?

Do you think we can be like the rest of the world in relation to gun even though we have a different upbringing about them?
