On the same day that Florida lawmakers refused to even debate a ban on assault weapons they declared porn a danger to the public. Say what?

Stoneman Douglas students watch as Florida legislators reject ban on assault weapons.
Courtesy of CNN: 

What's more of a public health risk -- assault weapons or porn? 

Almost a week after 17 students and teachers were gunned down at a Florida high school, the state legislature voted 71-36 Tuesday against a measure to consider a ban on semi-automatic weapons.

But they declared pornography to be public health risk.

This almost too stupid to address. 

And it just goes to show that Republicans fear sex far more than they do actual instruments of death.

Somebody should ask one of them, "When was the last time that an adult video caused something to go off accidentally which killed an innocent bystander?

    The New York Daily News depicted President Donald Trump as being silenced by the National Rifle Association on its Thursday cover.

    In the photo, the paper superimposed duct tape emblazoned with the NRA’s emblem stuck over Trump’s mouth:

    NRA’s Dana Loesch: ‘Many In Legacy Media Love Mass Shootings’

    “I’m not saying you love the tragedy, but you love the ratings. Crying white mothers are ratings gold.”

    ...Loeasch said during her CPAC appearance that she needed a security detail to exit the town hall because people rushed the stage and threatened her.

    NRA Head: ‘Completely Ridiculous’ To Think More Guns Would Make Schools Less Safe

    Wayne LaPierre is calling for more “armed security” in schools to prevent shootings.

    NRA Tweeted A GIF Of Amy Poehler. She Told Them To ‘F**k Off.’

    The group’s decision to use the clip, featuring Poehler’s “Parks and Recreation” character Leslie Knope, backfired badly.

    The show’s co-creator Michael Schur asked the NRA to take the clip down, and shared a strong rebuke from Amy Poehler, the show’s star and the subject of the GIF.

    “Amy isn’t on Twitter, but she texted me a message: ’Can you tweet the NRA for me and tell them I said fuck off?” Schur wrote.

    If the solution is to arm the teachers, does this mean it will be with assault weapons? Surely, a measly hand gun is no match for a semi-automatic. The lunacy is beyond belief. Gun mad idiots seem to be in control of the United States of America; once the number one country in the world.

    Well, what if someone who was watching porn lived in a high rise and "something" accidentally went off, hit someone in the eye, blinded them, and they fell out a window. I mean the chances of that happening are far greater than someone using an AR-15 in a mass shooting. Right?

    Modify my views on guns, or vilify traumatized teens? I have chosen the latter.

    I am very concerned about the schoolchildren. For their own protection (too late), it is important to me that they have their microphones taken away from them, stat.

    I only wish that in addition to the nightmare they have had to live through and the loss they have had to suffer, someone will lovingly place duct tape over their mouths, so that they will not interrupt those of us who are trying to explain why AR-15s are just like children and deserve to be kept in the home until graduation and then sent off to colleges and allowed to wander wherever their dreams may take them.

    ...Now, if you don’t want to hear from any more high schoolers traumatized by gun violence, then you either decide to try to create a world where high schoolers are not traumatized by gun violence, or decide to create a world where you do not have to listen to the high schoolers. It looks like we’re picking the latter!

    We are not monsters. This burning shame that keeps us awake is their fault. If they were not there pointing the finger at us — We are being personally victimized! We are the real victims here! They have the audacity to point fingers at people for doing nothing! We haven’t done anything!

    We are not trying to create a nightmare Catch-22 where people who were recently the victims of gun violence are too traumatized to be taken seriously on the subject of gun violence. That would be the act of monsters, which we, as specified, are not.

    I am very concerned about the children. I am concerned that the act of telling the story of the thing they have lived through will be too unpleasant for them. Not for me, never for me! I understand that these things sometimes happen. What is obscene is not that they happen at all, but that they are being forced down my throat like this. If someone who had been burned in a fire came on television, I would be upset that we saw the protuberance of bone and melted skin.

    The shame is that we are being forced to see it. Not that it happened. Not that they are begging us for it to stop.

    Somehow I maintain all these things at once. The children are being coached, and paid, and also they are too traumatized to be allowed to talk. They should be ashamed, the people who have given them a podium should be ashamed too. I should not be ashamed. I have nothing to be ashamed of. Get them away from me. I don’t want to look at them anymore.

    I am concerned about the children.

    I am concerned that someone may listen to them.
