Guns don’t kill people, ammo does.
On the heels of a gun enthusiast in Georgia who entered a grade school with a AK47, using the school to trap and shoot first responders (he was shot a little and captured) comes an even more fun gun enthusiast story from neighboring Tennessee,
Terry York and his 12 year old son Luke were playing with one of their assault rifles in their trailer when it went off starting a fire which then set off all the ammo. Neighbors say a series of explosions caused the trailer to become engulfed in flames and both father and son were dead at the scene. Gun Fun in Tennessee
As my friends in Texas tell me, you can never have enough ammo. In fact, just the other day a young man in Walmart asked me to buy $300 worth of ammo for him.Both his teeth make it hard for to understand his answer as to why he couldn’t buy it himself, so even though he was dressed in camo and looked normal for Texas, I was a bit suspicious and denied his request.
Having a gun in the home makes it 5 times more likely that a family member or friend will die of bullets. MENSA member Ted Nugent wrote an entire book dedicated to disposing of that lie, Guns, God and Rock and Roll. In it he relates who an unloaded rifle went off in his dad’s car on a hunting trip, when 12 year old ted was cleaning a rifle in his parents kitchen which went off through a wall, and in his home when his toddler got into the locked arms room, got a rifle out of the locked arms cabinet, and fired the unloaded weapon through the floor while a party below was going on. But no one was killed in any of the three incidents! So there you go, as he says in the preface, Sarah Brady should be euthanized for telling such lies.
BTW, Texas Congressman Steve Stockman’s pest pal is Ted Nugent. Stockman won Ron Paul’s old seat and will be that district’s congressman forever if he so chooses. Though he may move up to the Senate.
