What a stupid way to make that point.
The problem of evil is a stupid debate.  If you're at all educated, you're wholly familiar with all the various approaches to it, and you either believe in God or you don't.  Explicating the problem of evil to a bunch of Baptists/Evangelicals/other subrational Christians is like trying to scoop urine out of a public pool with a slotted spoon.  These are people who despite their belief in the unerrant Bible reject the Apocrypha without understanding why, and think that when people die they become angels.  Their understanding of Christian dogma is so poor it's a wonder they know murder is wrong, because they sure don't know why it's wrong, anymore than they know why gossiping is wrong, or stealing is wrong.

I can dig this.

And that's all well and good, but remember that Scipio's point of view is from an isolated and backwards branch of the Christian family.

True. I just lump him in there. :)

I have a small safe on the nightstand with a four button combo lock on it. I can get the gun out in about two seconds, but nobody else can get it at all. It's not hard to be reasonably responsible about it and make them inaccessible to the kiddies.

The dumbasss mother of that murderer, could have spent less than 25.00 four all four of the guns. Yet she knew her son was fucked up and did nothing of the kind.






Also notice the integral locking system on this Bersa. Should be standard.

Surely the Second Amendment protects your right to not use triggerlocks?

Maybe next the NRA can get using dum-dum rounds on preschoolers ruled as protected speech.

Indeed. Performance Art. Qualifies it for an NEA grant.

Yeah, pile it on!

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Assuming the mother knew her son was nuts, to what degree can be held liable (whether criminally or in tort) for failing to secure the firearms so he cannot reach them?

Somehow I don't think she'll be standing trial anytime soon.  Or standing for that matter.

Hey, look who's going to crash the party!

QuoteWestboro Baptist Church, the tiny independent fundamentalist Christian church based in Topeka, Kan., announced on Twitter that, once again, they are planning to stomp over our nation's heartache by protesting at the funerals of the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting and declaring "God sent the shooter."
