McChrystal backs gun restrictions

Quote:
“I think we have to look at this legislation,” McChrystal said. “The number of people killed by firearms is extraordinary compared to other nations. I don’t think we’re a bloodthirsty culture, and we need to look at everything we can do to safeguard our people.”

When guns are outlawed, only criminals will guns....criminals like the Taliban, AQ and Drug Cartels who use their firearms to control the masses.

"They" (progressives) want all guns confiscated. Anybody with any intellect knows that won't work.

The House should pass a bill mandating CCW for all teachers. That won't work, either, but- how many kids would have been saved in that school if any of the teachers were packing heat?

Why can't lib idiots realize, if only from history, that disarming a free citizenry won't fracking work?

It disappoints me to see a uniformed Service member fall for that crap.

Guys- I've told you before, I worked with this guy - he ain't a conservative!!! I could tell a couple of stories but then I'd have to put myself on double-secret probation and stamp my meal card: "No Dessert".

If he keeps this liberal rhetoric up, he could end up hosting a second rate tv show with a bunch of d-list celebrities...

He voted for the current POTUS

This clown was on the Hannity Show and admitted he voted for the current POTUS.

That's all I need to know about his politics.

That and disbanding the Iraqi Army were "master strokes"

I refuse to have a serious discussion about firearms restrictions until we discuss the violence that is glorified in Hollywood, video games, books, etc...

As far as McCrystal, he continues to do what is good for his political career - I am not surprised by this.

If you haven't heard this Congressional Testimony before, from Suzanna Gratia Hupp a survivor of the Luby's Cafeteria Shooting in Killeen, Texas, it is a must hear!!! Watch the looks on the Congressmen's faces and as she goes on how they collectively slump and hang their heads!!! She verbally STOMPED a mudhole in their asses!!

Close, he has a book just released, so he's doing what's good for his writing career...face time in the media for anything while the ink is still wet.
