Shit that Pisses Me Off

Just a quick one today! On the anniversary of April 16th many organizations made statements concerning gun control pro and con. Both sides used exaggerations and hyperbole to make their point. The one thing that most disturbs me is the name of many of the anti-gun groups. There needs to be a correction. For example the group: Keep guns off campus Should be: Keep legal and law abiding guns off campus while allowing criminals to continue to carry. You can just add that part in your mind the next time you see a similar group name!

So one of my friends went off today on the Virginia law to allow concealed weapons permit holders to go to a restaurant that serves alcohol with their weapon as long as they don't drink. He smirked as he comment that people only go to bars to drink...therefore it's a stupid law. Right now in Virginia people can open carry in a bar and drink...that seems stupider. He just doesn't get that there are lots of people carrying guns in bars right now, most of them bad and he has no idea that they are carrying guns. The main reason this is a good idea is that people, myself included, sometimes want to have lunch or dinner in a place that serves alcohol and not have a drink, but not give up our right to protect ourselves. Some may say that that is what the police are for. Well, I'm not sure who said it, but, when seconds count, the police are only minutes away! We would also rather not leave our firearms in our vehicles while we eat as they could be stolen. The second amendment...
