Another day. Another life cut short when a firearm discharges. A twelve year old boy dies at a Boy Scout Camp.



With whom should the responsibility for this needless tragedy rest upon? Should criminal charges be filed against the irresponsible actions of whomever was responsible for this child? Must we accept there is nothing we can do as a society because of the 2'nd Amendment right to bear arms? Are there any responsible adults governing this nation?

Yes, I know guns don't kill people, people kill people. But it takes the action of a person to discharge a firearm and when irresponsible adults set the stage for a child to have access to a loaded weapon unsupervised by a responsible adult please tell me just who is negligent and why the shouldn't be charged with negligent homicide?

    Tragic. I heard this today, but I didn't read the details. Was it an accident? Suicide? How did this child get access to the weapon? It's almost a dead child a day. If some sort of disease were causing these deaths, Americans would be tearing down Congressmen and women's doors demanding them do something.

    Local news confirms a suicide.

    No information on how he obtained a handgun.

    IMO, the NRA would be well served to concentrate a bit more on impact energies and wound ballistics , rather than the
    joy of huge magazines and purse-sized protection.

More On Modern Conservatism In a Nutshell...

Rational Nation U S A Purveyor of Truth In a prior post , published with the intent to facilitate open, frank, and honest discussion of post 1979 modern day conservatism (although that was inadvertently omitted, a extreme rightwing insurgent high jacked the post with his pro NRA firearm nuttery. As is to be expected it was abundantly clear he had no intention of either frank or honest discussion. His only purpose was to push his over the top uncompromising agenda. This particular individual has been known to me for some time and while at one time we shared some common views on individual liberty and the proper role of government this is no longer the case. At any rate, unable to understand what I consider a compromise position on firearm regulation, the parameters being his position of no regulation beyond the NRA's position and an outright banning of all firearms in the hands of civilian individuals , the following is my position. A) The purpose of firearm regulation is...

Was the Osama bin Laden Kill Really a Gutsy One?... Or Was It a CYA Exercise?

Image
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny President Obama politicizing his decision that resulted in the death of bin Laden. Perhaps it was not really a good decision. Time magazine securing a memo that could indicate the President was covering his on arse should the mission to take out bin Laden have went wrong. Ben Shapiro writing a column on how the President in his opinion, did just that. Before beginning my analysis of the above let me say I have real issues with many of the President's policy decisions and I certainly have issues with his desire to grow the federal government beyond recognition. Recognition when compared to what our constitutional republic should look like and how it should function. Now for my take on the most recent brouhaha. The memo secured by Time and as reported by Mr. Shapiro in Breitbart.com . Breitbart.com - Received phone call from Tom Donilon who stated that the President made a decision with regard to AC1 [Abbott...

Revisiting Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman’s' Presumption of Innocence until Proven Guilty......

Image
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Liberty -vs- Tyranny Trayvon Martin,a 17 year old teenager entering young adulthood was shoot dead in Sanford Florida. This much we know with certainty. When the story first broke this classical liberal with libertarian leanings accepted, based on the early news reports, that George Zimmerman as guilty of a horrendous and unforgivable crime. However,as more information surfaced I began to question the veracity of the liberal contention that Zimmerman had in reality committed an act of first degree murder (my initial conclusion). Given time, and the proper reflection after new information (and opinions based on this information) surfaced it seemed, at least to this writer anyway, to step back and chill just a bit. This I have recently been able to accomplish. Absence my initial judgement (which was based solely on emotional determinations) I have been able to see things kn a more rational light. Which is to saw we must allow justice, wh...

Coming Together is a Two Way Street

I am laughing my proverbial arse off. After spending a fair amount of time on left,  or perhaps they would prefer the tag progressive leaning  blogs, reading the constant belittling, name calling, insulting and often vulgar characterizations of almost  anything they disagree with, which of course is everything conservative , I am not surprised to learn of a Anti Tea Party movement. Before going any further however I must be fair and balanced. There are a few lefties whose views and opinions are deserving of consideration and I would be amongst the first to advise everyone, including conservatives, to do so. I shall not drop any names here but those of whom I am speaking of know who you are. And any conservative  whose mind is open enough to be challenged by smart lefties probably know who am speaking of as well. Another thing I have noticed about the left, or progressives is their tendency toward elitism and snobbery. I hav...
