Welcome to Open Carry Texas…
Don’t know whether this is good news or bad news for Trump who’s incoherent speech (even using the Teleprompter) was preempted on all the cable news networks…
We’re all mere clay pigeons on Planet NRA.
That split-second moment of disbelief, when bystanders say, Did I really see that? There’s that moment of indecision, where witnessing the event tugs against preserving your own life. Give me the second look to see if I saw what I think I just saw. Then, a few heartbeats later, self-preservation kicks in: I gotta get out of the way.
I once witnessed a guns-out standoff in a bank parking lot. The cop yelled at me to get back, get back. Once I got inside the building, I thought, what the hell was I even thinking, trying to watch that? I could’ve been shot.
Trump: This is on Obama. He was expected to take all guns away. Why didn’t he?
Did you notice how he’s ballooned? He must have locked himself in the Tower with about 100 boxes of devil’s food cookies…

Donnie’s pro gun so I’m sure he didn’t mind getting interrupted like an evergreened Dr. Joyce Brothers segment…
I know the feeling—I was getting some bicycles off the car in Montreal once as about eight cop cars rushed up and started setting up a drug raid down the street. Cops were jumping out and crouching behind their car doors, pointing pistols down the street. I told my girlfriend we should probably go up on the porch of the urban B&B we were checking in to. No fear at all, which was stupid. But no shooting either, at least. These people should all have gotten the hell out of there until they were at least about a hundred yards away with lots of building between them and the shooting.
Another shooting in America. Must be a day that ends in a “y”…
He does look at thought he’s put on 20+ pounds recently. Other than that, he was his usual smug, condescending, nonsensical self - including his audacity in defending the sanctity of marriage and family.
Trump’s new favorite line–“Thanks, Obama.”
I’m reading on other sites that tramp is being sedated.
Yeah. I would have, but its Texass. The sight of a gun that’s already been shot at someone doesn’t seem to phase any of these folks it seems. Guns are an ever-present thing there I would guess. I wonder if they allow guns in airports there, not past TSA if you’re boarding, but just in the airport proper. They allow them in churches, bars and schools, don’t they? Who knows. I’m tired of looking up the state-by-state smattering of inconsistent gun laws around the country to find out which states to stay the fuck away from, and especially every time one of these crazy things happen in public. Its over-zealous gun nuts that have decided to destroy country with this nonsense of “an armed society being a polite society”.
Yet another campaign promise unfulfilled.
Can Trump help it if the first two failed at meeting his rigid standards?
Marla’s face cream was shit…
I don’t know if it’s four hours of TV a day or what but people seem to be losing the ability to process stuff like this and react sanely. I watched that twice and didn’t see anyone just go and seek safety. They just milled around in a kind of bovine perplexity. I think one person saw a victim on the ground and started talking as if he understood this was serious, but he still didn’t get out of there, nobody did, until another cop came up and told them to. Just bizarre.
It must be by tranquilizer dart because I can’t imagine it’s voluntary.
I watch this stuff, which has become as commonplace as motor vehicle accidents, and I think I’m living, not in a civilized country, but in some weird holodeck simulation of the early 21st Century USA, conceived by STNG’s Lieutenant Reg Barclay, that has gone terribly awry.
There would be far more acceptance of public humping in that case.
I agree. Just strange…and disconcertingly so.
It’s because people don’t think that kind of thing will happen around them, so they don’t have any sort of response to it.
That, and in reality it isn’t like TV or movies.
