He's a sports announcer, and his opinion was given after a football player committed a heinous act. Why do people feel it is inappropriate to give opinions on subjects having to do with gun control when gun deaths occur?<br /><br />Reggie,<br /><br />I agree with your comments. Neither I nor other people who agree with me politically want to take all guns away from anyone. We only want sane gun control laws, you know, like the rest of the civilized world.Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-16669815061367351832012-12-24T06:51:45.838-05:002012-12-24T06:51:45.838-05:00The needs of the many should always outweigh the n...The needs of the many should always outweigh the needs of the few.<br /><br />I support the right of every American to protect their home and to hunt.

Ted Nugent is on the BoD of the NRA.
A...Ah yes. <br /><br />Ted Nugent is on the BoD of the NRA.<br /><br />And why wouldn't the NRA want someone as eloquent and stable as Nugent to be part of their organization? <br /><br />Ted Nugent, in his own words:<br /><br />To United States Senator Barack Obama.<br /><br /><b>"I said hey Obama, I told him you might want to suck on one of these you punk. Yeah, Obama, he’s a piece of shit." Holding two machine guns above his head.'</b><br /><br />To United States Senator Hillary Clinton while holding two machine guns<br /><br /><b>"Hey Hillary you might want to ride one of these into the sunset, you worthless bitch."</b><br /><br />To United States Senator Barbara Boxer while holding two machine guns.<br /><br /><b>"And hey Barbara Boxer you might want to suck on my machine guns."</b><br /><br />But on the upside he was cordial to Diane Feinstein by only calling her a "whore."<br /><br />After attacking Bob Costas for criticizing America’s gun culture, Ted Nugent blamed America’s purportedly “politically correct culture” for the school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. In an op-ed for the far-right Washington Times, Nugent said that the shooting occurred because of <b>the country’s “’anything goes’ value system” which “vilifies, condemns and mocks traditional societal values and customs at every opportunity.”</b><br /><br /><br />But because Nugent is stupid and has no self-awareness, he cannot understand that he just accurately described himself and his behavior in that screed. <br /><br />I think Ted Nugent is the PERFECT representative of what the NRA has become.<br /><br /><br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-48066157157437563722012-12-23T14:24:34.200-05:002012-12-23T14:24:34.200-05:00This is just another example of how private money ...This is just another example of how private money works against the general welfare.Jerry Critterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870618647449723147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-19943510327710814522012-12-23T14:11:25.756-05:002012-12-23T14:11:25.756-05:00I would hope that Ted Nugent, Chuck Norris, Grover...I would hope that Ted Nugent, Chuck Norris, Grover Norquist,<br />Tom Selleck, John Bolton, Larry Craig, Bob Barr and Ollie North<br />and their fellow<br /><a href="http://meetthenra.org/board-list" rel="nofollow">members of the board</a> at<br />the NRA are receiving a ton of<br />mail...<br />BB-Idahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01168862935045755393noreply@blogger.com
