BTW your story you sighted <a href="http://www.cleveland.com/news/plaindealer/index.ssf?/base/cuyahoga/1183711256192830.xml&coll=2" rel="nofollow">THIS ONE</a> is a pretty poor argument for gun control. I mean did you even read it? The third line states that, "A woman also was found stabbed to death". So, was she stabbed to death by a gun or should we start infringing on people's rights to own knives too! <strong>News Flash: Guns don't kill people. They are inanimate objects! </strong> <blockquote>"Those in uniform have every right to carry a firearm in defense of our freedom". </blockquote> Don't you think we should run that by the UN before we jump to such extreme conclusions?? And are we sure that we should let them carry assault rifles and high caliber handguns?? I mean there has to be certain reasonable restrictions in place, right? Thats what the founding fathers had in mind. What a loon! Dark Knight- If you are anti guns just come out and say so……… you don’t have to live in the closet and deny who you are to please us.

He was a firefighter who had a permit for concealed carry. There have been no indication that he was under any influence of alcohol as it seems he was trying to keep the noise down for his kids to sleep. He just snapped it seems. So do we just say "well thats life," and pretend this didn't happen? BTW, this topic is in reponse to people who want to call people anti-gun zealots. I do not support those who do not like the statue because it shows a gun. This is a NAVY SEAL. Those in uniform have every right to carry a firearm in defense of our freedom. He wasn’t a lunatic.

There's a big difference between these stories--one is a about a soldier who used weapons to fight and protect his fellow comrades, the other is about some lunatics ticked off by fireworks, and no doubt motivated with a little extra liquid courage.

Remember officers and Soldiers, that you are Freemen, fighting for the blessings of Liberty - that slavery will be your portion, and that of your posterity, if you do not acquit yourselves like men." --George Washington (General Orders, 23 August 1776) As another poster has used a quote of great merit, may I post another: One that shows the intent of the spirit of true patriotism displayed by many in our Armed Services;

Its a war memorial statue! What do these people think goes on during war?????? They ain’t playing rock, paper, scissors. This guy was a Navy Seal……. I don’t think it would be an accurate representation of the price this man paid for freedom for him to be holding a bouquet of flowers! The left has truly lost their collective minds.
