Miracles never cease: A fair article on guns from USA Today!

 

Adam Lanza's mother was among the tens of millions of U.S. gun owners. She legally had a .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle and a pair of handguns, which her 20-year-old son used to kill 20 children and six adults in 10 minutes inside a Connecticut school.

In the raw aftermath of the second-worst school shooting in U.S. history, countless gun enthusiasts much like Lanza's mother complicate a gun-owning narrative that critics, sometimes simplistically, put at the feet of a powerful lobby and caricatured zealots. More civilians are armed in the U.S. than anywhere else in the world, with Yemen coming in a distant second, according to the independent Small Arms Survey in Geneva.

Take Blake Smith, a mechanical engineer who lives near Houston and uses an AR-15 style rifle in shooting competitions.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who famously claimed to have shot a coyote while jogging with a pistol holstered to his running shorts, has signed a half-dozen certificates applauding Smith as one of the state's top marksmen. "But I won't call myself a fanatic," said Smith, 54, whose father first let him handle a gun around age 6.

  2. RE: Adam Lanza & The Bushmaster .223 Cal.. The only fact we know is correct from that fateful day is that 20 young lives, and 7 adult lives were ended. Who did the (all) shooting remains a mystery.. Adam Lanza did NOT have the Bushmaster in the school as a video has shown as it was left in the trunk of his mother's car. The second shooter (videoed) running into the woods, then others have reported as many as 4 armed Nuns from a Purple van were seen at the school.. the batf (belligerent, aggressive, terrorist force) has taken over the investigation.. The batf (under dhs) should have been outlawed a long time ago.. They're a very bad lot and Not to be trusted; are all loyal to BHO (whereas the FBI has refused to share info with dhs et al) .. The murdered American citizens of Newtown-CT were murdered by bho et al, just as the Colorado Movie theater. Holmes' father was connected to the US Gov't as is Lanza's father.. This stinks just like 9/11/01, colorado movie shooting, and Benghazi. This is us state dept. sanctioned murder of US citizens within U.S. borders.

    1. Thanks. For some reason, I have the feeling that not much will be accomplished without an EO and if he does do something big with one, it's going to get ugly.

  5. comrade Jarrett is the "de Facto" POTUS.. BHO is just a bump on a dill pickle.. he speaks whenever told to do so, then he's stoned much of the time .. They're doing exactly what they want, BUT if we hold onto our guns, then they can't bring in the NATO/UN/Soviet troops to overtake us.. This is the only reason these United states have never been attacked, our enemies know we the people are well armed. They have to disarm us to implement their heinous agenda here in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave !

    This report says that Lanza DId use the Bushmaster AR-15, But it does not negate the below exerp from the Doug Hagmann "dhs mole/insider report"

    "They, I mean Jarrett and Obama as well as a few others in government, are working to create a perfect storm too. This is being timed to coincide with new gun laws.

    DH: New federal gun laws?

    RB: Yes. Count on the criminalization to possess just about every gun you can think of. Not only restrictions, but actual criminalization of possessing a banned firearm. I heard this directly from the highest of my sources. Plans were made in the ‘90s but were withheld. Now, it’s a new day, a new time, and they are riding the wave of emotion from Sandy Hook, which, by the way as tragic as it was, well, it stinks to high heaven. I mean there are many things wrong there, and first reports are fast disappearing. The narrative is being changed. Look, there is something wrong with Sandy Hook, but if you write it, you’ll be called a kook or worse.

    DH: Sure

    RB: But Sandy Hook, there’s something very wrong there. But I am hearing that won’t be the final straw. There will be another if they think it’s necessary.

    DH: Another shooting?

    RB: Yes.

    DH: That would mean they are at least complicit.

    RB: Well, that’s one way of looking at it.

    DH: Are they? Were they?

    RB: Do your own research. Nothing I say, short of bringing you photographs and documents will convince anyone, and even then, it’s like [DELETED] in the wind."

    1. The early report/s stating that two handguns were found inside and an AR in the car, still haven't been explained.

    RE: Another take on Sandy Hook .......

    http://atruthsoldier.wordpress.com/

    I myself was told by a state dept. diplomat back in 1994, that the media is as bad or worse than the CIA .. So, this could very well be the case ..

    FYI, I also saw (last week) another video of the Mr. Parker (Emily Parker's father) laughing before the interview ...
