And another child is sacrificed to the NRA’s idol of lead.

An oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” chose to pack his politeness for the plane.

The TSA unpacked it.

Guns and stupid, guns and stupid.
They go together like love and Cupid.
Let me tell you brother,
You can’t have one without the other.

Yet more pistol-pumping politeness on the pavement.

A `14-year-old was backpacking heat and it did not work out wel–well, actually, it worked out exactly as any thinking person might have predicted.

And thus passeth another day in NRA Paradise.

Self-politeness is the politest kind.

And yet more evidence that “responsible gun owner” is an oxymoron.

Guns and stupid, guns and stupid.
They go together like love and Cupid.
Let me tell you brother,
You can’t have one without the other.

. . . and another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” exposes a child to politeness.

The Oklahoma City Police Department said the child found a gun, presumably from their parents, and shot themselves in the leg.</blockquote>

Drive-by politeness.

We are a broken society.

And another worshiper of weapons is driven to demonstrate politeness to a fellow traveler:

The shooting unfolded at about 2:10 p.m. on June 5, near the Layton Hills Mall in Davis County. According to a probable cause statement, the motorcyclist was seen brandishing a handgun as he chased after a car northbound on the interstate. The man then fired about four times at the car before speeding off, according to a witness, who provided Clearfield police with dash camera video of the shooting.

Police did not state in arresting documents what the motive for the shooting may have been, but in a news release, the Utah Department of Public Safety referred to the shooting as a “road rage incident.”

Children should be polite to parents.

A pregnant woman was shot and killed by a 2-year-old at a home in Norwalk Friday, according to an investigation report provided by Norwalk Police.

Just another day in NRA Paradise.

Once more, politeness becomes child’s play.

Thus passeth another day in NRA Wonderland.

Yet another random act of politeness.

In related news, Colin Woodard maps out the mayhem.

Another oxymoronic “responsible gun owner” shows politeness at the dinner table.

Yet another “responsible gun owner” demonstrates that phrase to be an oxymoron.

When deputies arrived, they determined that a man had dropped a gun he had been carrying on his person. When he went to pick it up, he unintentionally grabbed the trigger, which caused the gun to fire.

No one was hit by the discharged round, but two minor injuries were reported.

Guns and stupid, guns and stupid.
They go together like love and Cupid.
Let me tell you brother,
You can’t have one without the other.

Living the dream, the NRA way (full dreamscape at the link):

The man, identified as Mark Dicara of Lake Barrington, used a .357 Magnum revolver that he owned to fire the shot at around 9:50 p.m. on April 10, the Lake County government said in a news release issued on Tuesday. According to Lake County sheriff’s deputies, on the night of the incident Dicara dreamed someone was breaking into his home, and retrieved the gun to shoot at whomever he believed was the “intruder.”

But, when he fired the revolver, Dicara shot himself in the leg instead and woke from the dream, a subsequent investigation found. Authorities also confirmed during the probe that an attempted burglary did not happen at Dicara’s residence, and there was no intruder on his property.

Every day, in every way, our society is getting stupider.

Show politeness to your fellow drivers as you traverse the nation’s byways.

We are a (lead) poisoned polity.

Another child is sacrificed at the feet of the NRA’s leaden idol.

We are a broken society.

Yet another child . . . .

And yet another reminder that “accidental” and “negligent” are not synonyms.

Once again, politeness becomes child’s play.
