LOL, logic is something most of the anti-constitution types seem to lack.
When I was in school there was always a police officer around there somewhere. Dont know how it is now, but with the stupidity being so prevalent there should hopefully be more police prescence.
It’s all true except “we defend our office buildings…with guns”. Not my office building, nor any other I’ve seen. The security guards at all of the office buildings I’ve seen are unarmed. I’d also question the % of factories with armed guards.
It’s not always true, but there are plenty of corporate offices with armed guards. The point is, whenever a group believes they could be in danger or their secrets stolen, they hire people with guns to defend them.
Yup only the important buildings, the ones they work in. Every federal building, every SSA office, DMV…goes to show who the obviously important people are.
Exactly. I’ve seen comments on this site by at least 1 poster that has kids in schools and doesn’t want vetted people to carry guns in the school. 20 minutes at Sandy Hook. How many at your kids school?
And none of the current gun control laws being proposed will have any effect on the next Lanza.
It will be interesting to see how this unfolds. I can see a number
of benign causes and effects that could be screwing up orders.
The shear number of orders, number of items per order, item
availability, policy on shipping partial orders: all, I’m sure, are
playing a significant role. Does Brownell’s fill an order for 100
PMags and make 20 orders of 5 pmags wait or not? Do you fill
out a partial order? Brownell’s has to be aware of what
happened to CTD. Do they piss off 1 or 2 large buyers to keep
20-30 others from posting hate mail and going elsewhere?
Considering how fast Cheaper Than Dirt got sent to the chopping
block (rightfully so in my opinion), this is a big concern.
Do they send partial orders or not? Do partial shipments depend
on size and number of items? Has Brownell’s suppliers been
able to keep up with demand? Does Brownell’s itself have the
capability to efficiently deal with the massive increase in sales
in the last few months? Are they in the middle of restructuring/
growing in order to handle the increase? Can whomever ships
packages for Brownell’s handle the increase? Is Brownell’s trying
to use/hire alternate carriers to handle the increased volume.
Any of these issues could be behind problems with purchases from
Brownell’s right now. Though they can be influenced to varying
degrees, none of these issues are necessarily malevolent.
All lot of the gripping in the forum seems to be little more than
whining (there are a few legit gripes) and many seem to have
no idea that there is a massive run on AR mags and lack of
availability may not be Brownell’s fault. Brownell’s has stated
several times to bear with them as they cope with the increase
sales. And from I have seen and heard this increase is not
in thousands but the tens of thousands. Considering how fast
the run on firearms has played out, EVERYONE is finding
it hard to cope.
All in all, let’s find out if Brownell’s are screwing around on
purpose before we bring down a flood of hate and frustration.
Whether it’s socialism or capitalism, government or industry, “resource” is the key word, because that’s what we all are. Resources in the system. Back in the bad/good old days, organizations used to have personnel departments. Now they’re all about humans as resources.
Individuals may truly care about individual children, but governments “care” about children like farmers care about their crops.
Posted this to Facebook this afternoon. Didn’t get much response, which is good because with my network it means that people are thinking about it and not reacting blindly to the idea. I did, however, get one response that I’ll share along with my reply in case it’s helpful I the “arguing with liberals 101” sense:

Why do you propose giving everyone a gun? That seems like a spectacularly bad idea. Perhaps you should learn more about responsible firearms ownership before making suggestions like that.
We already have guns in our schools. They’re carried by Fremont police officers, who seem able to bear the responsibility without the eeevil gun influence causing them to go on a shooting spree. Are you suggesting that the middle and elementary schools deserve less protection than the high schools? If so, why?
(See how I used the literal interpretation of his statement as the basis for my reply? By carefully failing to acknowledge any sarcasm or humor I have made it HIS problem to address. Since I actually do like the guy, I stopped short of the emotional blackmail tactics that would come next — normally I would ask him why my wife (teacher) and my two younger kids all deserve to die if a lunatic attacks their elementary school.)
Yep, it’s all about priorities.
And thats the inarguable truth. Unless you’re a lib trying to brainwash children into thinking guns are evil, and then it makes perfect sense.
Everything on the list above, starting with the politicians, is for sale. If you could buy the kids they’d be guarded too.

I do believe you nailed it!
Holy sh!t, son. You win my internets for a month!

Like has been said, gun-grabbers don’t hate guns…they hate you having them. They don’t hate violence…they hate violence they don’t control.
To the point and indisputable.
Incendiary Image or logical image?

My “office building” is protects by firearms. It’s a police station.
I agree though, most office buildings are not protected by firearms.
Yup only the important buildings, the ones they work in. Every federal building, every SSA office, DMV…goes to show who the obviously important people are.
Well, the DMV in South Central is patrolled by CHP, but they are not permanently stationed there.
I had this up on my FB page, crickets from my anti-2a friends lol
This one goes in the “anti-anti” file.
EXCELLENT! Good to see I wasn’t banned after all!! I hated the idea of joining the Second Amendment in oblivion…

As a teacher, this pictures makes me both angry and sad. Mostly because it’s true.
We as a society to claim to “value children”, but it’s just empty words when their lives are neither safeguarded, or their needs are not provided for.
Don’t forget Liquor stores, gas stations convenience stores, and cigarettes…
We protect our factories with guns? Really, not where I am in North Carolina.
Indeed. The fact that only some factories are protected by people with guns (though not any that you have ever seen) completely invalidates this post.
Never been around Detroit, Monterey, Juarez, Chicago,……..have you?
Never been to plants in Detroit, ElPaso, Houston, Chicago or LA have you?
I think my sarcasm may have been a bit too subtle.
The Boeing Company as well as most major Defense Contractors.

“our most precious resource is our children”
— Obama
Obama would have all free American citizens become subdued sheeple working on his nationwide plantation.
It’s bigger than Obama. It’s systematic.
Whether it’s socialism or capitalism, government or industry, “resource” is the key word, because that’s what we all are. Resources in the system. Back in the bad/good old days, organizations used to have personnel departments. Now they’re all about humans as resources.
Individuals may truly care about individual children, but governments “care” about children like farmers care about their crops.
Yep its about liberal hypocrisy.
This is a test to see if I can also get an icon.
Is that Fracking duck wearing a gas mask?
Nice sign.

And if we gave everybody a gun, that would solve the problem too. What could possibly go wrong. http://s6.postimage.org/4y37wysc1/602850_518747348158540_1950686333_n.jpg
