So I was just chilling with my friends, there was wine involved, we were merry, good movie on. Another friend joins us a little later with a bit of news. As always, he shall have a pseudonym, like every other character in my life. We shall call him, The Chef. He loves to cook and often gets very pretentious about it because he thinks it’s the right behavior that accompanies one talented in the culinary arts.
The Chef : DId you guys hear about the shoot out in Conneticut?
Me : What shoot out?
The Chef : Oh some dude went amok and shot a bunch of kids in a school there.
Me : Oh. Again?
So yes, some idiot running around with a gun shooting a bunch of kids has made me mad. But what’s making even me annoyed is seeing rednecks go,
“Oh they should give the teachers guns too!”
Like we haven’t enough problems with guns.
Only the rednecks. Only the rednecks can come up with shit like this. Seriously? You’re gonna get up in your cowboy swagger and shoot the maniacs who come through those doors? 1. Takes more to than a gun to act in an event of emergency. 2. people need to be able to KNOW how to use them and 3. you don’t fucking fight guns with guns! Are you insane?! Like we haven’t had enough school massacres.
I want to see the men of these children say the same thing. The grieving parents, the torn-apart families. I mean, you got some serious psychopathic balls to be able to walk into a school, look a trembling 5 year old in the eye and pull the fucking trigger. Are we assuming the teachers have balls of a similar nature? To be able to whip a gun out, flip over a table and engage in a shoot out?
If you love guns, go hunting, go to a shooting range. Don’t fucking keep them with you and don’t fucking disagree when it’s pretty damn obvious that you arseholes need to seriously amend your shitty laws about them.
Jackasses. If I had psychopathic balls, I’d shoot the rednecks and hilly billies. After having done a study on proving glial cell under-development/brain atrophy in people of the lovely racist south.
