“The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.”
– Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the National Rifle Association, in a much-anticipated press conference Friday, the 21st, about the Connecticut school shootings.
With an invisible coon skin cap on his head and the ghost of Charlton Heston looming over him, LaPierre took the expected stance of the NRA: guns don’t kill, people kill. Ergo, we need more guns. With 50% of the world’s firearms therefore, the U.S. should be the safest nation on Earth. Strangely, we’re not. Like the Republican Party’s attitude towards taxation (giving the wealthiest citizens tax breaks to stimulate jobs), the NRA mantra is a perfect example of insanity: doing the same damn thing over and over, expecting different results. It would be a hard-fought battle, but I hope the nation has finally come to its senses and will ban assault weapons. Then, we reasonable-minded folks can tap-dance on Heston’s grave.

God Could Have Saved the Little Critters, If You’d Invited Him Back!
“You know the question’s gonna come up, where was God? I thought God cared about the little children, God protected the little children. Where was God when all this went down? And here’s the bottom line: God is not gonna go where he’s not wanted. Now we have spent, since 1962, this, we’re 50 years into this now, we have spent 50 years telling God to get lost. Telling God, we do not want you in our schools, we don’t want to pray to you in our schools, we don’t want to pray to you before football games, we don’t want to pray to you at graduation, we don’t want anyone talking about you in a graduation speech. We’ve kicked God out of our public school system. And I think God would say to us, ‘Hey I’ll be glad to protect your children, but you’ve gotta invite me back into your world first. I’m not gonna go where I’m not wanted. I am a gentleman.’”
– Bryan Fischer, of the American Family Association, blaming the Connecticut shootings on the lack of prayer in schools.
