This entire post makes me glad to be an American. I have never agreed with President Obama on nearly anything he has said or done, but give the man his due; Before that unfortunate, lunatic, incident in Connecticut, of all places, he has still sold more guns and ammo than probably all of the previous presidents put together. And I'm guessing he did all of this on the basis of his skin color , rather than any bills he introduced.
And of course after that ultra-insane slaughter, this is no longer a contest. You really have to wonder why God allows these things to happen. Well, God's ways are not our ways. If it wasn't for a strong Christian upbringing: There, but by the grace of God, go I!
As a Christian Conservative, I have to ask myself, what would I have done under similar circumstances? The truth is: We don't know. We all picture ourselves as the hero who is armed and ready, but the truth is, we are all darn glad that there are people like the men of the Boston Police Force who got a standing ovation by the majority of the citizens of Boston. ( Who by the way, are as Liberal as you can get )
P.S. Yeah, I know, with several hundred empty casings in the street, these must be the worst shooting cops in the country! (Probably explains why ammo is so scarce )
