Here is your quick Ammosexual round up for today.

First from Colorado Springs we have a five year old who shot a three year old: 

Colorado Springs TV station KRDO reported that a 9-year-old boy found a handgun inside a Pueblo, Colo. home. Another 5-year-old child then got ahold of the gun and accidentally shot the toddler. 

The 9-year-old told police that he learned how to handle the gun and get it ready to fire by playing "Call of Duty: Black Ops," according to the news station. 

The 3-year-old underwent surgery at a local hospital and was in critical condition.

Of course the gun nuts will blame the video game for familiarizing the nine year old with guns,  and while I agree that nine is too young to be playing "Call of Duty: Black Ops," video games do not fire actual bullets at children.

This was a case of a deadly weapon being left within reach of a child, and that is why this baby girl is in a hospital fighting for her life.

The next story is from Arizona, where a neuroscientist explains that the reason he carried an AR-15 around an airport was to make a "political" statement:

 "I am a peaceful political activist, and my purpose in walking around the airport with my AR-15 rifle was entirely political in nature," he said in a news conference outside his attorney's office. "Put simply, I decided to make the point that a peaceful citizen can openly and responsibly carry a firearm, including an AR-15, for the protection of themselves and their community." 

"I wanted to help educate the public and the employees at the airport about this point by allowing them to see a peaceful person responsibly carrying an AR-15 while doing things that people normally do there, like waiting for someone, drinking a cup of coffee," he added.

Sadly for this politically motivated ammosexual, he was arrested because as he was demonstrating his peaceful nature his weapon ended up being pointed at two women who did not find his actions terribly peaceful.

Come on! How hard is it to figure out that if you carry an assault weapon around a public place that people are going to have a negative reaction and contact the authorities.

I mean that's not exactly brain surgery.

Wait...



Next we have an NRA commentator arguing for the right of blind people to carry guns on their person for personal protection: 

In the video, titled “Firearms and the Blind,” NRA commentator Dom Raso asked viewers several rhetorical questions. He said a blind person is not going to “start shooting in every direction” and “kill[ing] everyone” if he or she has a gun. 

“The biggest concern I hear is having blind people carrying in public. Are you envisioning the person waving the gun around or pointing it at anybody for no reason? Because that’s what it sounds like,” Raso said. “Do you think because they’re blind, they’re going to start shooting in every direction and kill everyone? Fact is, it’s been proven that people that lack vision have an increased awareness of their hearing and spatial surroundings.” 

Raso called the blind “more vulnerable to crime” than people who can see and went on to argue that blind people do not need to see in order to defend his or herself if attacked. 

“Do you think you need to see where you’re shooting if someone is on top of you trying to kill or rape you, while their hands are slowly squeezing your neck and they're yelling ‘I’m going to kill you'? I didn't think so,” Raso said.

Yes let's have blind people carry guns so that they can fire in the direction from which they feel threatened. How could that possibly go wrong?

You know a lot of blind people already have the very best deterrent against assault and robbery on the market.

A seeing eye dog.

I would rather have a good dog by my side, watching out for bad guys, over a firearm that could be wrestled from my grip and used to shoot me in the face, any day of the week.

This final story come to us from West Virginia:

A Boone County woman and her son were hospitalized Tuesday after both were shot in a domestic dispute. 

Deputies said Phyllis Mooney, 63, and Jason Mooney, 37,suffered wounds about 7:30 a.m. at their home in Twilight. 

Deputies said Jason Mooney was packing his things to leave during an argument and slammed a .30-.30 rifle on the floor in an attempt to break it. Deputies said the gun accidentally went off, hitting both of them. They had to undergo emergency surgery at CAMC General.

The son is being charged with possession of an illegal firearm, however it looks as if the gun will get off scott free.  Which seems unfair since it seems like the gun fired all by itself and tried to take both of them out with one shot.

And here the NRA keeps saying "Guns don't kill people, people, kill people." Try telling that to this rifle.

As I have said numerous times in the past, most shootings take place during angry confrontations, often domestic, and NOT in preservation of life and property.

Rarely is the 2nd Amendment keeping anybody safe, but it's existence can be blamed for the deaths of literally millions of American people.

And yet nobody has the courage to discuss the possibility of altering the language in this most deadly of amendments in order to protect the lives of our fellow citizens.

Isn't it about time that somebody did?
