A Florida woman who deputies said shot a neighbor through the front door of her Ocala-area apartment, killing that woman, has been arrested, according to authorities.
This is just like that situation with the young Ralph Yarl in Kansas City, but worse. Because at least he survived, miraculously.
I’m fairly neutral when it comes to guns and the 2A. I personally don’t like guns and I don’t own any. I’ve fired a handgun all of one time and didn’t like it. But I’m not out there trying to ban them all. I have many friends and family members who own guns.
It’s funny; hardcore 2A supporters have always used the the the left or democrats or liberals or whoever, as a straw man or boogie man. That these groups are out there to “take yer guns.” Yet it never happens.
But it’s these people acting poorly with firearms (to say the least) who will be the cause of more restrictions. And these people tend to be hardcore 2A supporters. These people who think owning guns means you can shoot and kill with impunity. Because someone rang a doorbell or knocked on their door. Because someone pulled-in to their driveway momentarily to do a U-turn. Because someone accidentally tried to get into the wrong car.
Normal people, including responsible gunowners, aren’t going to stand for this. This includes people like me who largely sidestep this “debate.” The hardcore 2A crowd thinks that all gunowners are willing to sacrifice everything else at the alter of the 2A. And I don’t think that’s remotely true. Gun violence has gotten more and more ridiculous. It was bad enough (again, to say the least) that there are children are dying in schools. Just today I read an article about a shooting at a high school graduation in Richmond, Virginia. But now you can’t even ring a neighbor’s doorbell? You can’t briefly back into a driveway? What’s next? Can’t use the sidewalk? Can’t grill on your patio and make too much noise? People aren’t going to want to live in fear like that in their own neighborhoods and homes.
On the other hand, we’ll see. If Sandy Hook weren’t enough to cause action, I don’t know what is.
One thing that I’ve noticed about this type of shooter is that they treat it like a new toy. Not that I’m trying to necessarily refer to proper gun safety, at least not in the purposes for this argument, but rather, it’s something that they cannot wait to use.
It’s funny; hardcore 2A supporters have always used the the the left or democrats or liberals or whoever, as a straw man or boogie man. That these groups are out there to “take yer guns.”
And yet, when their own leader said he was going to do so, there was no outcry.
