A Tune for the Times, Armed Society Dept. 0

On the Youtube page, Mangy describes what led to this tune:

In Kansas City, an 85-year-old man shot a 16-year-old black student who’d mistakenly come to the wrong address to pick up his twin siblings. Some gun owners believe that if you’ve got a gun, you’ve got to shoot SOMEBODY, otherwise, why have it. Mangy Fetlocks sat down for half an hour and just imagined what some of the repercussions from this shooting might be. The thought wasn’t comforting.

And, while on the topic, Atrios asks a question.

Still Rising Again after All These Years 0

Thom makes a case that Republicans and the NRA are quite willingly orchestrating a misdirection play about gunnuttery to obscure their true intentions.

America’s original sin of chattel slavery continues to cast its shadow.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gene Collier remarks on the confluence of guns and stupid.

Musical NotesGuns and stupid, guns and stupid,
They go together like love and Cupid.
Let me tell you, brother,
You won’t find one without the other.

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

There’s a common denominator to all these injuries and deaths both accidental negligent and purposeful:

The gun.

That’s the one constant in gunnuttery.

Stemming the Red Tide, Reprise 0

To figure out why (mostly Republican) elected politicians refuse to take action against the flood of guns and gun violence, the Arizona Republic’s E. J. Montini follows the money.

The shooter was armed with a semiautomatic rifle, the weapon of choice for most of America’s mass killers.

It’s a weapon elected officials refuse to ban, because they love the money and the support provided by the gun lobby more than they love innocent civilians.

Or police officers.
