Our guest columnist is batshit crazy.
Hurricanes. Tornadoes. Riots. Terrorists. Gangs. Lone criminals. These are perils we are sure to face — not just maybe. It’s not paranoia to buy a gun. It’s survival. It’s responsible behavior, and it’s time we encourage law-abiding Americans to do just that.
“On February 23rd gun owners and patriots will come together to organize locally to protect the right that protects ALL rights, the 2nd Amendment. This page is for the people willing to volunteer to make that happen. Negativity will not be tolerated.” [Day of Resistance/Facebook, via Right Wing News]
“At least two people were injured Saturday afternoon in an apparent accidental shooting at the gun show being held at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds… A witness told WRAL that a gun went off after being checked by an official at a safety check-in location.” [via @JC_Christian]

James Yeager, CEO of Tactical Response, which offers gun training in Tennessee: “I’m not fucking putting up with this. I’m not letting my country be ruled by a dictator. I’m not letting anybody take my guns! If it goes one inch further, I’m going to start killing people.” [Raw Story]
Ladies and Gentlemen, freshman Texas congresscritter Kyle Kacal:
“I’ve heard of people being killed playing ping-pong — ping-pongs are more dangerous than guns,” he said. “Flat-screen TVs are injuring more kids today than anything.”
Seven people died playing ping-pong in Germany from 1997 through 2006. Cause of death is unknown.
And 169 kids died from falling flatscreens from 2000 through 2010.
Meanwhile, 2,793 kids died from gunfire in 2009 — 85 of them preschoolers.
