Gleaning Facebook: Guns Everywhere Law

The NRA extremists, and they include some of my much-loved, and otherwise reasonable friends and relatives, are to blame for crazy, horribly unpopular, laws like the guns-everywhere law in Georgia. The extremists claiming folks (like the President and the rest of us who SUPPORT hunting and ordinary self-protection rights) want to "take our guns away" have passed a law that will result in more flesh and blood men, women and children losing their lives. Shame on the politicians who know better. That includes Katie Dempsey and Eddie Lumsden right here in Floyd County and Nathan Deal and others at the state level. Shame on them.

Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America

DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN WHERE YOU LIVE: Georgia parents shut down a children’s baseball game on Tuesday when an armed man began pacing the park saying, “Look, I got a gun and there's nothing you can do about it." Even though 22 people called 911, authorities could not arrest the man or ask him to leave the park because he had a permit. One 6-year-old asked his mother, "Mommy, did that man want to kill me?": http://bit.ly/1k2Nurv

This is not the America our children deserve. That's why mom and gun violence survivors are in Indiana this weekend during the NRA convention, talking about gun sense. If you can’t make it to Indy, please LIKE, SHARE and JOIN us here: http://momsdemandaction.org/join-us/

One guy was shot last night at a bar on Cave Spring Road. Was it from a gun that was allowed in there? Where were the other people with guns who are expected to serve as vigilantes to protect people from other shooters?

A friend of my wife works for the Forsyth Parks and Rec. This park is across the street where we lived for 26 years.

This is a sad result of those on the right, who include many of my friends, too, Terrell Shaw, who gleefully have pushed for their Second Amendment "freedom".

Deborah Lake Dawson
Totally agree!

If this had happened at a private school lacrosse game, do we really think this law-abiding citizen's legal rights to carry a gun would have been protected when some of those parents called the police? Permit or no permit, he would have been hauled off to jail.
