@BFH, I think this cliches the deal in your favor.
At least, like ya say, “for now”.

What an asshole!

What do you expect from a crowd that kills babies? The parading of children is pure narrative because the Newtown children are late term abortions to them. Since the presidents children are so important, why are we sobbing over the narrative when we should be celebrating over the life of Obama’s children? Nothing is wrong when we can all carry on knowing Obama’s children are well.

The very first retort is a KO:

So Matt Iglesias, what makes the Sandy Hook kids so special then? According to your logic they weren’t important because they weren’t the kids of anybody special.”

I’ll take your word for it. No clicks for Fat Matt.

(Unless you mean the fine BBQ in Atlanta.)

that’s what the left thinks of gun-’nuts’:

The average American is BORED. They have little to look forward to and little to realistically work toward. Wages are and will probably remain stagnant. Most of us don’t even have creative or restorative (making or fixing) hobbies anymore. Instead we just “collect.” Various forms of social media absorb our time. No one reads (except Twitter feeds and the funny picture captions on their facebook walls). It’s the TV, the Internet or nothing.

The connection of boredom with the gun fetishists is: if they can feel that they are busy, busy, busy preparing for the Ultimate Breakdown of Civil Society (or as the fettis usually put it, TSHTF*), BINGO! no more boredom.

Middle and lower middle class Americans also feel POWERLESS. Americans — rugged, heroic individualists all — really, really hate feeling average. Hence the popularity of the “apparently ordinary guy saves the day” movie genre. So when they feel that no one respects them, and every time people ignore them or don’t cooperate with them, they secretly long to be able to force them to pay attention, to grovel before them, or to “follow orders.” Carrying a gun under your arm makes you feel as though you could KICK ASS AND TAKE NAMES at any time you choose.

This sense of powerlessness is also reduced by the fantasy of preparing for The End. They actually can take control of something, do something important. No, not just important, VITAL! Their families rely upon them for their ultimate survival! BINGO! They are in charge. They are powerful.

So, bored and powerless people inevitably stockpile guns. We need to address the boredom and the powerlessness…but how?

so they basically think that gun clingers are fools that fancy themselves as Tom Cruise or Matt Damon super-heros

Obviously, Matt’s not a “breeder.”

Any single one of my guns is worth more than matty.
