Brady Campaign response to recent events... - Page 3

Once again we have a mass shooting in a place where the victims were required to be unarmed. How can creating more places where the victims-in-waiting are required to be unarmed make us safer? We all know the answer to that question, as does any thinking person.

This is the part I like from the "press release??"

---------------
“America has seen an epidemic of horrific gun violence at churches and synagogues, workplaces, health clubs, high schools, universities, police stations and now Army bases. This latest tragedy, at a heavily fortified army base, ought to convince more Americans to reject the argument that the solution to gun violence is to arm more people with more guns in more places. Enough is enough.”
-----------------
There is a very good post on this forum regarding how "gun free" military bases actually are. In many ways they are no different than churches, health clubs and school. But trust the Brady bunch to no be blinded by facts. They would rather lie and let evil abound than help the law abiding be safe.

The 5.7 did not kill anyone at Fort Hood, a terrorist did.

...horrific gun violence at churches and synagogues, workplaces, health clubs, high schools, universities, police stations and now Army bases

The reason these places have multiple homicides is because they are the very places that usually ban firearms carried by law-abiding citizens...this allows the evil crazies to wreak havoc with nobody to stop them!

Good grief, these Brady people piss me off....

Can anyone with first-hand knowledge of Ft. Hood's layout and procedures describe how gun-free the specific places in question are, where the shooter attacked his prey?

Exactly right. Nobody who was "armed" with pixie dust and prayerful wishes did a damned thing, nor could have. As is usually the case, it was an upstanding person with a firearm who took down the threat. Again, it's shown how useful the tool can be against psychopathic criminals when they decide to blow up.

One soldier actually commented to the fact we were unarmed and unable to defend ourselves,at least In Iraq we expect it and we are ready for it.I was a SP in the USAF in the late 70's,our response times to crimes were about what civilian LE times are,downside is nobody on base can keep a firearm in their living quarters,the ultimate gun free zone,how is that a heavily fortified base,anybody in a car with a base sticker gets waved right thru the gate

And yet again, everybody BUT the anti-gunners learns the lesson that when your life is in IMMEDIATE danger, even if the police do EVERYTHING right, you defend YOURSELF or you don't get defended AT ALL.
