Milwaukee Mayor Barrett has gall to call gun owners a "special interest group"

imported post

It's a sad day for this country when believing in our constitutional rights is a "special interest group" instead of the catagory of "everybody".

You're absolutely right, but that's where we are today.

Did I read it somewhere that the shooter was 18?

If so, how come nobody is screaming about him being under 21 and in posession of a handgun?

Or am I way off base here?

Like most states, in Wisconsin, folks can own and open carry handguns at age 18.

But it serves a a lesson nonetheless. Don't talk to the cops. Anything you say CAN and WILL be used AGAINST you. Not a single word you ever speak can possibly help you when dealing with someone who's job it is to lock up anyone he can find an excuse to.

What I don't understand is how this 21 year old was able to buy a 40 cal. handgun and ammo at Badger Guns for just $40. Or did he take a big loss selling it to the 18 year old shooter? $40 for a gun and ammo from a gun store seems way to low.

The 18 year old paid the other guy $40 to buy him the gun plus the purchase cost of the gun. The gun wasn't purchased for $40.

So, this 18 year old gets a stupid guy (legal, but stupid) to buy him a gun, shoots two cops, and the mayor goes on record to say thatit happenedbecause "someonesaid it was okay to carry a gun in the middle of the city." He insists that tougher gun laws would prevent this kind of violence. What??!! Are you kidding?

How can tougher laws do anything to stop a criminal from carrying a gun wherever he goes?? Or stop him from shooting cops?? A guy who has it in him to shoot 2 cops will not be hindered by any of your little laws. It is only the law-abiding that will be punished by more unconstitutional laws. But go ahead, push the legislature to take away more of your honest citizens' rights!! Take away their most important right: the right to protect themselves and to be ablehold backtyranny through the possession of arms. Then, on to complete control. That is the goal, right?
