Following the horrific massacre in Newtown, all liberals can agree that we need still more stringent gun control — something along the lines of what they have in hyper-statist Britain. Let’s see what effect once great Britain’s draconian authoritarianism has had. Here’s a report from 2009:

Guns are the tools being used, but they are not the result. When people drive drunk and kill someone, we don’t blame the alcohol or motor vehicle, we blame the person who got liquored up.

Gun sales have soared since Obama was 1st elected in 2008. Causation or correlation? Discuss.
From those hard right wing nuts at CNN: Obama´s re-election drives gun sales.
"Fears that a ban on the weapons might come back under Democratic leadership drove gun enthusiasts to buy firearms when Obama was first elected in 2008. The most reliable way to track the number of gun sales is via background checks, and they spiked after the last election.

So here’s the challenge for gun control advocates: explain why you failed the people of Newtown. You cited Connecticut as a national example. You said its laws “reduce risks to children.” You gave no state a higher rating for keeping guns out of public places — like schools.
And a criminally insane man stole legally-owned guns (owned under Connecticut’s regime) after being denied their legal purchase, broke in through a window, and killed children and adults — adults who were not armed to shoot back, and so died unable to save the children who also died.
You want this one event to

The left begins with mocking, maligning and marginalizing their ideological opposition. But, if and when the left has enough raw power, they inevitably move to silence their opposition altogether….And Binky; if you´re not part of the program, you´re gonna´ be part of the purge.

Question: What could anyone do to protect the lives of innocents in a situation like the Newtown CT shooting?
Answer: Allow & encourage responsible, trained adults to carry handguns. One well-placed shot could have eliminated the shooter before a single child was harmed. Even better, the knowledge that there are armed, serious adults standing between a killer and and those he hopes to kill provides some deterrent to even the most criminally insane murderer.

The Old Media establishment has done a disservice to an American public heartbroken over the murders at a Connecticut grade school by reporting untrue "facts" over and over again and by using emotionally tinged phrases that do not relay fact but instead push an agenda.

Newtown is not 15 miles from where we live. A teacher we know taught at Sandy Hook school but now teaches at the middle school. One of his students lost a sibling. My wife’s sister’s father in law was Principal at the school for some time. He is devastated but is intent on helping restore the school.
Sadness pervades the air in the state. It is the same sense of loss we felt in the aftermath of 9-11. I have been trying to organize intelligible something to write- and I am not sure I yet have.

A fascinating article written in light of the tragic shooting in Newtown, Ct. by an author who has lived with Asperger´s Syndrome and who states that it was not Asperger´s that caused Adam Lanza to do what he did. According to the author, "Because so many have endured so much worse and not become monsters, a man with autism who reveals himself to be a monster would have been one even without it."

There is an old joke:
A well-dressed man approached a voluptuously beautiful young woman on the street and said, "Would you have sex with me for a million dollars?"
"For a MILLION dollars?!" she replied, more than a little stunned, "Of course I would!"
"Well, would you sleep with me for twenty five dollars?"
"Twenty five dollars? Don´t be ridiculous! What kind of girl do you take me for, anyway?"
"We´ve already established what kind of girl you are; now we´re just haggling over price."

Conservatives are understandably upset that John Boehner seems to be putting more and more on the table in an attempt to get a deal out of Obama who, so far at least, seems to be offering nothing but a “Thanks, sucker” in return.

My heart is sick. I feel so sorry for the children who were murdered, as well as the parents and loved ones of the slain kids and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. All of us here in the U.S.—who still have a soul—pray for those whose lives were just senselessly shattered.

Could the combination of a Nostradamus prophecy, the end of the Mayan Calendar and the Psy video Gangnam Style reaching 1,000,000,000 views signal the end of the world on December 21? I certainly hope not but these coincidences coupled with the inactions of our government does make for an interesting conversation.

Pusuke, a Japanese dog, died last year at the age of 26 years and 8 months, Guinness reckons she’s was the world’s oldest dog.
And speaking of survivors I just learned that Oskar, the Bismarck’s ship’s cat, survived the battleship’s sinking along with 115 out of 2200 crewmen. Oskar was rescued by the HMS Cossack. The destroyer was torpedoed and sunk six months later with the loss of 127 crewman. Oskar was taken off a piece of floating debris by crewmen of HMS Ark Royal. Three weeks later the Ark Royal was sunk by another U-Boat. Oskar was saved...

Never let a crisis go to waste – especially when it is an opportunity to abridge our Constitutional rights. This week, a sociopath went on a killing spree in Newtown, Connecticut. A 20-something-year-old whackadoo slaughtered 20 Kindergarteners and 6 adults, before blowing his own brains out. The loss of those little angels and the heroes who died protecting them is unimaginable. But the spilled blood had not even dried when the Left started screaming for gun control. Bloomberg and others instantly screamed for massive gun control. Clamors to change the Second Amendment, to invoke an Executive Order and even to
