- Dick's Sporting Goods has suspended semi-automatic rifle sales. Wow.
- The NRA took down their Facebook page yesterday. Courageous or cowardly?
- Prediction: New Dallas ISD Superintendent Mike Miles will be gone within 12 months. His inability to follow the rules and his arrogance once called out will be his downfall.
- The home invasion in Decatur yesterday (see Update) sounds fishy.
- It's the great Christina Aguilera's birthday.
- That's the best picture of Adam Lanza?
- Josh Hamilton might be slightly smarter than Dez Bryant but no one will ever question Bryant's effort. (And after Saturday's press conference, Hamilton needs to get some scene control over his wife.)
- In the 70s tomorrow with wind gusts up to 40. It is not beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
- The Stepkids In The House may be stepkids but they are good stepkids. Respectful and sweet. I kept waiting for an explosion that never came (knock on wood.)
- Prediction: The Dallas Cowboys will not make the playoffs.
- Great pro-gun caller on the Mark Davis show today: The Second Amendment is there to protect the citizenry from the government. All of the Bill of Rights are there not to protect us from each other but to protect us from government intrusion and over-reaching.
- "School Lockdown (Haltom City) Multiple PD officers are responding Code 3 to Birdville Elementary at 3126 Bewley for a reported person with a gun." Thirty minutes ago.

Would you put a "Gun Free Zone" sign on your house?
*Holy sweet mother of god--all of those curves and not a single tat or piercing in sight.
*There are two bullet points to this posting as well.
No to the gun free sign, but one the states "if you enter without permission, you will get shot" works for me.

The Hamilton Family comparing the Ranger salary negotiation to allowing Josh to date outside a relationship was sort of creepy. And strange for the wife to toss out there.

Will someone recognize the difference between "gun control" and "gun elimination"? I have heard of no serious proposal to eliminate all guns. However, control of military type assault weapons and those with huge ammo clips deserves attention. Background checks for those buying guns at "gun shows" and from individual dealers is also needed.
And don't repeat that silliness about it's people who kill not the guns - guns and automatic weapons sure make killing easier and more massive than using baseball bats or knives.
I know the college age girl who was attacked and I would be surprised if it was fishy. She is an intelligent, level-headed girl who is trustworthy and a "no-drama" kind of person!
That's the best picture of Adam Lanza?
When will the liberal media or you blame the perp? Ever? The adult most responsible for this horrific act gets a pass from you and your type?
I would really like to know what you mean by home invasion seems fishy?? First off, were you there and do you know all the details? My daughter was assaulted in our home by a stranger and we live in a small town where everyone is suppose to look out for each other and help when needed. Instead of doubting something you know very little about, you could be posting a pic of the guy and helping catch his ass!
9:07 is absolutely correct.
I'll listen better to my pro-gun friends if they'll stop trying to paint legislation that outlaws huge ammo clips exactly the same as trying to take away their deer rifles. Reasonable people see a difference between the two.
Also, the argument about people finding a way to kill if they don't have guns is tired. We all understand that killers will try, but we have to think about effectiveness. The example of the Chinese man that wielded a knife in one of their schools is more of an example as to why gun control may help in some instances. He "wounded" 22 kids. Most of those children are expected to recover.
Statistically, guns are more effective as mass killing weapons. That should not be that difficult to understand.
"guns and automatic weapons sure make killing easier and more massive than using baseball bats or knives. "
Tell that to the families of the 22 elementary kids killed in China on Friday.
That particular lunatic used a knife...
We need more TRAINED, armed security on campuses. If an armed professional had met that evil monster when be broke into the school, rather than an unarmed principal, the news story would be much different...
How about we spend more money on security and less on technology?
I'm pretty sure the kids will be fine if they don't all get an iPad. Or perhaps we'll feel better if they can all tweet about the intruder as he kills their peers...
Still smiling, just got another 1000 rounds of .223, 1000 rounds of .40 and some tactical buckshot. Love it Love it. isnt it great Green and no one can stop it. I may have to have a chiesel to get this smile off.
WOW, Unbelievable for someone to post the home invasion sounded "FISHY" really...I personally know this family and the girl that was assaulted by this home invastion, this girl went to school with my son and she does not like drama or does not tell lies! so let's not say its "fishy" unless you have evidence to prove otherwise, unless you were there!!! Just sayin...I agree with the Mother, we all live in a small town and I have lived here all my life, support is what everyone should do in this type of situation!
Why don't you post the pic to your blog??? and help try to catch the guy that did this to an inncocent girl. Thank you in advance. have a great day....
That woman is beautiful.
Who is she?
No tats and nice everything!
Fantastic Job.
OK history lesson folks. The Second amendment was drafted for the following reason. When the British got wind that the colonists weren't happy and were grumbling about revolution the first thing they did was round up all the weapons. Every hunting rifle, musket, pistol they could find. The only ones not seized were the ones hidden in fields and down wells. The founding fathers wanted to be sure that no government force could ever enter your home and forcibly take your weapons.That we could always defend ourselves against an over reaching, intrusive government. It all goes back to the basic premise that the people are supposed to be more powerful than the government. You know, the whole by the people for the people thing.
Now I have no problem with background checks and having to wait to purchase my weapons, however I'm tired of people who have no experience with guns and are inherently afraid of guns telling me which ones are bad and I shouldn't be able to own. A gun is a hunk of metal, a machine, a tool, until someone picks it up and decides how its used.
The Tragedy in Newtown is heart wrenching. I have a 9 year old and my world would implode if something like this happened in Bridgeport. But living in a free society such as we do means that we are vulnerable to such evil and "enemies, both foreign and domestic". That means sometimes the bad guys get lucky and we take a punch to the gut and our collective hearts. We must mourn and then get up, dust ourselves off and aspire to the greatness that can still define us, rather than submit to knee jerk reactions and fears.

You are the reason intelligent folks want more gun regulaions. You fit the profile of the next mass shooter. I guess guns make up for you lack of balls.
9:07, there's a HUGE difference in gun control and gun banning. One is what the left wants, the other means hitting your target. As for "the silliness that guns don't kill people", you actually contradict yourself with your own statement a little further down the page, moron. When you say "guns make killing easier", you're making a total cop-out remark. You can't say "guns don't kill people" because anyone with the mental capacity of a tree can understand that guns, in fact, DO NOT kill people. The problem with that though, is that if you actually ADMIT IT, rather than dancing around the question, you know you're stance is wrong. Let me know when the video if a gun loading a magazine, walking around, driving to the target range, and the shooting targets, makes it on YouTube... Ill be waiting. It's too easy with you people.
Barry, can you honestly blame the NRA? They're people too. They have kids just like everyone else. Show me a group out there, other than the nuts at WBC, that are rejoicing over the death of 20 children. The left acts as though its this huge news story since the NRA isn't out there pushing an agenda (like the libs were by noon last Friday). Let the bodies get cold before you try pushing for emotionally-driven and irrational agendas you sorry bastards. These were people's kids.
RTG: OMG!!! I am in lust! thanks BG great job today!
Well I just purchased a gun at the last Fort Worth gun show from a dealer, and they did a background check...But if you buy from an individual walking around then no check. I think they may need to look at that...
UNBELIEVABLE! You are the only one FISHY! I guess this is a ploy to get more people to read your blog! This young lady is very reliable and won numerous scholarships because of her outstanding contributions to our community! THEN SOMEONE LIKE YOU WHO POST PICTURES OF WOMEN contributing to scum bags like this guy who attacked her in her home. YOU OWE HER AND OUR COMMUNITY AN APOLOGY FOR SUCH AN IGNORANT STATEMENT! YOU ARE BEING VERY IRRESPONSIBLE IN THIS MATTER!
"military type assault weapons" - That's a pretty vague description. It usually means "looks like something I've seen in the movies." What exactly would you control/eliminate?
Very well said 10:27am post....
My post is the time 9:47am and it starts WOW, unbelievable..
I agree to what you and I both said to this situation about the girl being assaulted, BG, needs to apologize on this blog to the girl and the family for his statement!!! so lets' see if that happens!!! tick tock tock BG...
10:16 you are a Sheep! You fear the sheepdog and the wolf. But when the sheepdog saves your A you don't mention it. And the media rarely reports its
You need to re-read the constitution. 2 amendment was put in place so civilians can fight a oppressive government. Civilians need the same type of weaponry to have a fighting chance against this government.
In other news from the Update..."charges have been dropped on one of three Decatur High School students"
We need to know more...was the student injured when the charges were "dropped on" her?
I think RTG is a repeat. I seem to remember remarks made about the two guys following her down the beach.
hee hee, barron is fishy. hee hee
The Mark Davis caller is absolutely correct. The second amendement allows us to be armed in order to protect us from the government. And if the government is incapable of providing safety, which is clearly obvious, then we have the right to protect ourselves AND to be protected from that same government from overreaching and trying to disarm us.
And for a Liberal to use the phrase "blood on your hands" for the death of folks from guns has got to be kidding me. When you self-reflect about the "blood on your hands" from millions of aborted fetuses....who ARE living and have a future.... then we can talk. Hypocritical jerks....
So, 1039, by your logic, we should all have access to grenade launchers, tanks, and mortars? Nukes? Jets? If you think an AR evens your odds against the govt, then i encourage you to step up and get this darwin ride rolling.
1045 - Check this out.
11:06 Yet another Sheep.
A nuke is a nation killer. LOL at your comment.
Why would you set off a nuke on your own doorstep?
And I ask you this. When the Government comes to your door to take your gold, silver, food, or kids for mandatory military service. When they take your right to have a beer, to drive, or to smoke. Are you going to stop them with the rocks in your back yard? Good luck!
And I doubt anyone would be coming to anyones door anyway. They would be attacking families, friends, and neighbors. I know of no Gov. employee that would be willing to do that.
9:44 put down the rifle and learn to read. The Chinese kids didn't all die, 22 were "wounded". Thanks for pointing out that guns are typically more lethal than knives.
As for your misplaced iPad rant, I suggest you talk to a school official and have them explain the numbers to you. Some of our kids may need to understand this technology thingy if they want a good job in their future.
Several sevicemen have gone nuts killing people,maybe we need to take the guns from the military too.
Gun laws work... just look at Chicago. I think outlawing nigs would be a better idea.
Try actually reading the 2nd amendment. It refers to "a well regulated militia" should have arms. That means the states' National Guard members. Join the Guard and keep your weapons, but like 11:06 noted, the federal government's army, navy and air force may still out gun you.
Unlimited gun nuts are...Nutz!
Haven't seen your apology to the young girl whose privacy was invaded -YET. HORSES ASS!!
What do you mean by fishy? Please explain the basis of this slanderous comment...
1214 - Try actually reading the Second Amendment. "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." That phrase refers to all the members of the community, not just those who are part of the militia. Also, try reading Blackstone ("the right of the subject is that of having arms for their defence...and is indeed a public allowance, of the natural right of resistance and self-preservation") and the English Bill of Rights to see where the Framers got the concept of the "right to bear arms."
awesome link wordkyle. now tell us what her name is
Wordy,
Your condescension knows no bounds. And, as usual, you are the teller of the half-truth.
The question of interpretation as to whether the Second Amendment should be interpreted as granting to individuals similar rights as to a militia is a very close one and was not decided until the Heller case in 2008. It was a 5-4 decision.
Your response of "Try actually reading the Second Amendment" indicates your lack of understanding on the subject...as well as other things about you.
210 - No can do, pal. I'm already feeling a bit creepy old man-ish. Normally I don't comment on the RTG, but her most distinguishing characteristic had been uncommented on, and your query prompted my link to the Demotivational poster. (However, a search on Google Images might be able to soothe your curiosity.)
WOW! who wants some golden cam_ltoe? Bacon is on crack or gay, where does this girl get a point off? I seen perfection!
I'd like to bite her all over until my two front toofs was all gold like some black pimp daddy.
And where did the framers get the concept that black people should be slaves, and women shouldn't vote?
Our interpretation of the enumerated rights changes over time. Even if you and your party have shown an inability to change.
The nice step-kids. Call them your bonus kids. It sounds so much better.
HARD TO BE WRONG BARRY? THE HOME INVADER IS IN CUSTODY! FOOT IN MOUTH?
225 - I condescended to someone who had condescended to another person, using the condescender's own words against him. I only condescend to those who deserve condescension.
Incidentally, what part of what I wrote is a "half truth"?
Liberals are on par with lawyers as the most despicable among us.
Wordy, an example of your frequent use of half-truths is the fact that you failed to indicate the "..." in front of your quote, "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The question of whether it should apply to the people of the militia (the Guard or police) or to everyone was questionably decided as noted by 2:25.
Incidentally, the arms available at the time described by the framers included pistols and single shot muskets - NOT automatic weapons, hand grenades and other modern devices. Maybe we need to update the 2nd amendment to cover what we now consider appropriate devices for the "people".
1053 - My point, which you call a "half truth" is that the Constitution does not say "the right of the militia to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." It's the right of the people, just as all others in the Bill of Rights are for the people, and not government entities. Your attempt at a definition would make the Second Amendment's use of the word people different from all the other rights listed.
The "question" you say was "questionably decided" was actually a reaffirmation of the rights of the people, not a creation -- as was the D.C. law that was under review -- to restrict the constitutional right of the people.

Re-read above. This applies to you also.

10:53a Show me in the 2nd a that is defines arms as only pistols and single shot muskets?
Does your freedom of speach only limit you to newspapers, protest and voice? No, you have a large resource of choices to use (tv, internet, public forums, facebook...etc).

I suggest you talk to teachers who have entire classrooms full of teens with iPads.
Those darlings are downloading porn at home. At school, they're on Pinterest, Twitter, and Instagram when they aren't playing games on the apps they've downloaded. They use their phones for Facebook during the day because the school wireless server blocks Facebook. Bummer. Thank goodness for 4G.
They're in online discussion forums for literature classes and plagiarizing their comments; in AP Humanities and AP Calculus they are surreptitiously taking pictures of class exams and posting them in online message boards.
Yep, thank goodness for iPads- if they didn't have Sparknotes at their fingertips they might actually be forced to think.
This is the RTG of all time. Rapture and 12/21 are now in gear. Thank you BG for the send off.
