“This country is full of those nuts and loons who do not appear to take seriously the deadly potential of a gun. They’re the ones who strap on their assault rifles and stroll through big-box stores and coffee shops as if they were extras in an episode of ‘Longmire.’ Or the ones who wave their rifles in one hand and a pint of Jagermeister in the other. Or the ones who leave loaded weapons within easy reach of small children like shiny, deadly toys. Or the ones who settle their differences with a bullet in the brain. You can’t fix stupid. We know this. Brady couldn’t. The bullet-torn corpses of 20 children in their classrooms couldn’t. Maybe it’s time to admit that we’re just not sensible enough to figure it out.” – Joline Gutierrez Krueger, Some people are just too dumb to have a gun [via abqjournal.com]
