Just read this article. Interesting stuff, and from NPR of all sources. Synopsis: Government data on number of annual school shootings can't be verified and is outright made up.

Kind of reminds of a segment in the Showtime show "Penn and Teller's Bullshit." Many people want to attach violence in video games with violence in real life, which is pretty much hogwash.

We may as well be back in time to the Roman era...with some sycophant eunuch reporting the news as those in the Senate see it.

Crypto currency is the only safe way to buy these, no tracking.

Wrong... Cash also works just as well...

I have all of this guys 3D files. Stop by the house with a thumb drive and I'll give you a copy. The current court order just says they can't be placed on the interwebs.

This entire issue also has to be about the dumbest waste of time and money on the planet. When you stop by the house I'll also be happy to show you how to make a gun out of a ballpoint pen, a rubber band and a paper clip.

I also find it hilarious that the left is just now learning it's completely legal for you to manufacture a firearm in your garage or basement with no strings attached.

I love this whole 3D plans thing... the left can't halt the 2nd amendment without also trampling their beloved 1st amendment... talk about a conundrum.

Remember when DICK'S Sporting Goods got involved in the gun control debate? Well, it looks like it backfired. Today, Dick's reported a bigger-than-expected drop in quarterly same-store sales and forecast further declines this year. Their shareholders felt it as shares in the company fell 14 percent after it posted.

When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.

Waco--Branch Davidian Compound ^^^

Anyone that doesn't know the true story of WACO should take the time to learn. I can even make it easy and entertaining for you. There is a good TV mini series called "Waco" that was produced by Paramount. I believe it's available on Amazon among other places.

Maybe using David Koresh to justify owning an AR isn't the best example....

Maybe using David Koresh to justify owning an AR isn't the best example....8:8:

Why not? David Koresh was a peaceful person that did just about everything humanly possible to stop the Feds from slaughtering those who followed him. Koresh never broke the law. I see Koresh as the perfect example, particularly here in Utah where some have also tried to paint the LDS church as a cult.

Learn your history and then we'll talk.

History aside, public perception paints him in a very poor light. It may be true that he was just a humble, God fearing, tax paying, law abiding citizen, but the average individual doesn't know that. Many folks will sum up the entire Waco scenario by proclaiming that Koresh was Wacko - similar to the name of the town he lived in.

#FakeNews and a lying Federal government painted Koresh in a poor light and the sheeple are happy to blindly follow along. Every American should be ashamed of what happened in Waco.

Those knowledgeable on the Waco subject, including local law enforcement that was stifled, see things differently.... sounds a lot like another situation currently being played out, don't you think?

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

They said he was raping pre teen girls and had a 50 cal on the property.

The local cops said the if the Feds would have left him alone, the police would have picked him up on a grocery store run.

Reno was an incompetent fool.

They said he was raping pre teen girls and had a 50 cal on the property.

Among other allegations that were never proven or proved false...

Many of the allegations came from a former disgruntled member that lost a power struggle for leadership with Koresh. The Branch Davidians were #FakeNews before it was cool.

Don't get me wrong, the Branch Davidians were a strange group, at least by normal standards. But they had a right to worship as they saw fit.

If you really want to know what happened read the book "A Place Called Waco" by David Thibodeau as he was there and in the middle of it from start to finish. It's a good read. Thibodeau does say Koresh was married to a 17 year old woman, that was one of his several wives.

Waco and Ruby Ridge is why people rallied around Cliven Bundy, they wanted to make sure he got a fair deal from the Feds.
