I think we don't agree. So, the victim is dead! And the imbecile gets a kick in the ass? No guns, no victim. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/aug/24/how-dangerous-is-celebratory-gunfire We agree on something; Imbeciles who think guns are a celebratory toy need a solid kick to the ass.

Strange that the whole world views the US as a basket case going from bad to worse. Of course, the other 7.1 billion people must be wrong in their assessment of the roles of guns in a society. Not the, maybe, 50 million extremists in the US who hold outlandish views. Get a bigger willy, or maybe grow some balls. That way you don't need to overcompensate with a gun. http://www.globescan.com/news_archives/bbcusop/detail.html Jesus Christ I hope your just drunk posting because you are sounding like a mental patient right now that is having some kind of attack. There are a thousand reasons and 1 reason for her to carry that gun. And the only one that matters its it was her fucking choice to carry it not you. Google murder pictures, take a look at every dead person. Every result you see is a reason for anyone to carry a weapon, mace, asp, or taser. I think you live in your own protected little world you have built yourself, and are ignoring real life.

And please, don't shoot your guns in the air as part of the celebration. People get killed by those bullets raining back to earth. But I assume that the NRA covers that subject. Right?

Sounds horrible. I grew up in Europe, 25 yrs. Been living in the US for 25 yrs. Also, I travel extensively to third-world countries (mainly Latin America). Seen some pretty rough neighborhoods. Just be careful wherever you reside. Ciudad Juarez maybe?

That's exactly the reason why toddlers don't get a drivers license. And they lack the motor skills to insert the key, release the parking brake, engage the engine. Your point?

TS. You are very special! Including your "international" insights. By all means, please continue to amuse us!!!! Al Sharpton, inciting this kind of behavior. People in the UK throw stones and bottles at firemen and paramedics because of Al Sharpton? Maybe . . . they do here.

Feels even better to the wall when you stop! :)

This just makes a perfect point that nobody should be allowed to carry guns! (Except military and very few police officers.) So, here we have a well-educated woman. An avid gun lover/ fanatic who knows about all the necessary precautions relating to gun safety. Embedded in a family of outdoorsmen! Yet, she still gets killed by her own gun. If somebody w/ her experience/ background can't safely handle a gun. Neither can you or the next gun nut responding to this post! I REST MY CASE! Hmmm A 75 IQ?

Happy New Year to You, Too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfMzK7QwfrU

“There are no accidents,” Ms. Sandoval said. “There are simply irresponsible, stubborn, cowardly adults unwilling to stand up against the gun lobby and those who support it.” http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/29/us/children-and-guns-the-hidden-toll.html?pagewanted=all

As you always like to quote the second amendment, maybe now is time for you to read up on the first. Just an idea.

TS. You have some other issues that you need to deal with. Healthcare, including, albeit limited mental healthcare, is affordable now thru the ACA. Just do it!

No, it wouldn't. Being beaten and robbed, even raped, is unfortunate. Being shot to death is terminal. One can recover from the former, but not from the later. I also don't get these "what if" scenarios from the gun-lovers. What happened is well-known. Why do we need to even consider what could have happened if Jesus were to have descended to that very WM at the same hour? Point is. No gun, no victim! THAT SIMPLE! It's not about need. It's about exercising a right. No, she didn't need to have that weapon ith her any more than you needed to put your thoughts out on this forum. Hypothetical: what if you found out that she was beaten and robbed while out shopping five years ago? Would it change any of your thoughts?

You are still evading the question! Did she die happily? Would she do it again? And Bob and Danny were no two-year old toddlers within reach of a lethal weapon. Lethal, yes. But not two-year olds. Why are you bringing this up? Makes no sense. What an ignorant question. Why don't you ask Bob Holler's friends if he would rather do that jump over, or if maybe he should have pulled a little higher. I'm sure you would take back any mistakes you made that involved death, or would you? I wonder. And here is WHY I wonder: I cannot believe you are condoning children shooting their parents, THAT is sick. But wait, there's more! Apathy in the face of death. Put THAT on your resume'

With that kind of outlook on the world. Please get some help. And I hope you never carry a gun. SICK! P.S.: You still owe me an answer: You think she died happily? Protecting our second amendment rights? Or do you think that by now, she'd only wished to have lived another day?

So, what you are saying is that she was carrying a smoke detector, fire extinguisher, and all the other shit you listed while visiting the WM? Did I get that right???? If not, please refer to my post Dec 30, @5:47, and just answer those two, simple questions. Before engaging in further discussion. Do you understand the concept of emergency equipment that is carried when there is no expectation of immediate need? Examples: - Smoke detectors - Fire Extinguishers - Reserve parachutes - Hook knives - Aircraft flotation devices - Emergency O2 - Automotive air bags - Spare tires

I think you trying to make a connection between skydiving (freedom to bounce) and carrying guns (freedom to what?), is a stretch. Actually it is more than a stretch. Jumping out of an airplane for personal fulfillment and accepting the associated risks. That's very different from carrying a tool whose only intended purpose is to kill and maim.

TS. You and your ilk are being evasive. Why does a 29-yr old need to carry a gun, on a weekday morning, on a family shopping trip to WM? I am awaiting your answer! Also, you think she happily died exercising her second amendment rights? Or you think she would reconsider now and rather live another day? I am awaiting your answer! Jeez, What do you have against toddlers? Do you not understand how screwed up the kid is going to be for the rest of his life knowing he killed his own mother? Come on... I believe I covered that in the first response. "Well hey, at least you are ok with paracide, and kids living with death as a mistake. "

Those chocolate eggs are way too dangerous. Of course, a bullet is the same size as one of the toys found inside the eggs. Go figure! P.S.: Nobody has ever died from a toy-filled chocolate egg. But they are illegal in the US. Bullets, on the other hand, are perfectly acceptable.

Enlighten me! What is the reason to carry a loaded gun into a WM, on a family shopping trip, weekday morning? If ID is that unsafe, in daytime during the week no less, we just need to call in the Army/ Reserve to restore law and order! Obviously that is not a job to be entrusted to a 29-year old. And spare me the right to carry arms shit. She had the right, exercised it, died for it! You think she would make a different choice, given a second chance? P.S.: The real victim is the toddler. Who you and your buddies sacrifice on the altar of the second amendment. SHAME ON YOU!

Now, if just all toddlers would kill their gun-addicted parents, we'd have a better, less violent, society !!! I don't feel sorry for the victim. Not one bit!!! A woman was killed in an Idaho Wal-Mart Tuesday morning when her 2-year-old son accidentally shot her, according to local authorities. Kootenai County Sheriff’s Department spokesman Lt. Stu Miller said in a statement that the boy was seated in a shopping cart when he reached into his mother’s purse and fired the gun. The 29-year-old woman, who deputies found dead on the scene “from an apparent gunshot wound,” had been shopping with the toddler and other family members, Miller said. The shooting “appears to be accidental” and authorities will identify the woman after her family has been notified, Miller said. Authorities on the scene said three other children were with the woman, and that she had a permit for her concealed weapon, CBS affiliate KREM reported. The woman was visiting from out of town, and the shooting took place as she was in the electronics section of the Wal-Mart in Hayden, ABC affiliate KXLY reported. The store in northern Idaho was evacuated after the shooting, and Miller said it will remain closed until Wednesday morning. “A very sad incident occurred at our store today involving the death of a female customer,” Wal-Mart said in a statement, KREM reported. “We are fully cooperating with the Kootenai County Sheriff’s deputies as they investigate this matter.” Although accidental shootings by children do happen in the United States, there isn’t comprehensive data showing how often they occur, The Post has previously reported.

Love it! If you don't like Obamacare, get the fuck out! That's the punchline I have been missing in dealing with Republican Retards.

Right on, bro'! Like your sig line! NSA and CIA come to mind. NRA also. But we think alike, so I don't have to tell you.

How about: It's the law? Torturing has basically violated countless US laws, plus all international laws to which the US has been a signatory. Plus, the CIA has misled Congress and oversight committees. I have absolutely no more qualms about the next American being beheaded. Just as most of those being tortured were innocent, I am sure those Americans being beheaded are innocent, too. Wrong place, wrong time. I just wish somebody would get to Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney by any means, before they get a chance to naturally expire. P.S.: No way that a misguided nation of 300M people will rule the other 6B. I am thankful for China and Russia as a counterweight.

Guys like him are the problem! Who needs terrorists when we have torturers at our door-steps? I for one don't see any difference between ISIS and the US. Also, both kill men, women, and juveniles (even retards) in the name of justice. Whether it is a sword or by lethal injection, the result is the same. Just remember this: Guys like him that are still active military are trying their best to keep terrorists from doing what they want to do, terrorize the world, INCLUDING Germany. So show some fucking respect.
