They’d murder him like Wayne LaPierre murders the truth…constantly and at 30 clips a minute.
On Sunday morning, Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the National Rifle Association, told the world that armed guards stopped school shootings in Israel. Israel begs to differ.
…
But according to Yigal Palmor, spokesman for the Israeli Foreign Ministry, it’s not. More specifically, the two situations are “fundamentally different,” and Israel’s actually tightened its gun control laws in recent years.
Well that just matches LaPierre’s deceit about “violent games and movies” being to blame for mass shootings…given the fact that every other western nation has these same games…but not the guns…and not the number of mass shootings.
Funny that. And not because it is humorous.

Wayne LaPierre is a whore. He makes his money as a gun-runner.
In other news, a Predator drone was accidently fed the coordinates from NORAD’s Santa tracking program. The Defense Department at this time can neither confirm or deny if there was any loss of life.
Wayne and the NRA are just rotten. What more can you say?
What is this but an argument for arming Santa? Merry Xmas, Firedawgers.

Thanks, attaturk, and the holey spirit of the 2nd Amendment is aimed at you anyway.
Merry Christmas, pups! Today we’ve got Brooks, Nocera and Bruni. In “The Sidney Awards I” Bobo says it’s that time of year! He presents the first batch of the best magazine essays of 2012. Mr. Nocera writes about “The Power of a Mom’s Love” and says the mission is to help people with special needs find their place in the world. In “These Wretched Vessels” Mr. Bruni says it’s the season of resolutions. Don’t let yours confuse the body you inhabit with the contentment you can know.
Here they are.
The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and I’ve got a ham and cheese breakfast casserole. After I fortify myself with more tea I’m headed for the kitchen to make eggnog and start rendering some beef suet for roasting the potatoes and onions that will sit next to the roast beef. I hope Santa brings you everything you want. I’ve got my eye on a particular instant-read thermometer, but I doubt that he’ll bring me the new hands and wrists that I could REALLY use! Have a wonderful Christmas day.
Thanks, Marion, hopefully Bobo will feature those insightful pieces that have told the party of wingnuts that insanity is so 2011.
“Men’s courses will foreshadow certain ends, to which, if persevered in, they must lead,” said Scrooge. “But if the courses be departed from, the ends will change.”
Happy and peaceful holidays to all, including the NRA. May they be peaceable and stop threatening people with their guns for a day or two.
I see you ask Santa for impossible things too!
Good Christmas morning to one and all,
In the most violent over armed country it seems proper that the discussion this morning is about guns.
Seems some young bucks in the neighborhood got an assault weapon from Santa early. Yesterday they were popping off single , multiple rounds and counted seven in quick secession once.Blew off over a hundred rounds . They would blown away Dirty Harry and his out of date counting bullets fired, before he would ever be able to say are you feeling lucky Punk ?
Training on Wall Street maybe?
New firing range on Wall Street maybe?
Pardon the repeat post, my computer lied.
and I’ll take the possible, too, like rightwingers accepting facts … oh dear there I go again.
You can’t have the goosie they blow away for Xmas dinner, though.
