Official now : Salon.com is full of idiots.

I won't link the story because I don't want anyone from my site clicking on that left-wing garbled mess. However, I will give you small snippets of exactly what Walter Shapiro was writing. The dudes a pure-bred weakling and in his small liberal utopic mind he actually believes that repealing the second amendment would stop shootings and incidents such as the Virginia Tech massacre.

Newsflash!: That would only effect law-abiding citizens. Not crazed out criminals who don't care about the law.

Virginia Tech was already a "Gun-Free Zone" and all that did was create an atmosphere where the citizens couldn't protect themselves from social deviants who haven't a care about the constitution or our country's laws, but it's hard nowadays to get people to understand that illegal aliens are actually doing something illegal. So, it comes as no surprise that another liberal tosses common sense out the window and vomits idiocy from the mouth.

Despite a decade-long string of such political victories, the NRA still revels in the apocalyptic imagery of liberal jackboots trampling on the constitutionally guaranteed freedoms of gun-loving patriots. After the Democrats took control of Congress last November, the NRA issued a brochure that began ominously, "Second Amendment freedom today stands naked in the path of a marching axis of adversaries far darker and more dangerous than gun owners have ever known."

Are they wrong? The NRA isn't just a bunch of gun-toting hicks who just wanna shot holes in things. These guys have been trying to protect a freedom that our very fore-fathers had set in place for a very darn good reason. Now, some 200+ years later a bunch of liberal moonbats want to come along and stomp all over that right and take it away? Why would they do that?

I'll tell you : Because in their utopian world guns don't exist.

To them Guns are the most dangerous object on the planet. Well, probably second in line behind consrvatives and christians, but you have to understand that they wish to get rid of all things that they fear. Why do they fear it? because they fear they might be wrong and their utopian paradise won't ever get created. Here's some more:

Looking at the Bill of Rights with more than two centuries' hindsight, it is simply irrational that firearms have a protected position on par with freedom of speech and religion. Were Americans -- liberal or conservative -- writing a Constitution completely from scratch today, they probably would agree that something akin to "freedom to drive" was more far important than the "right to bear arms." The rights of state militias (which many liberal legal theorists argue is the essence of the Second Amendment) are as much a throwback to an 18th century mind-set as restrictions on quartering soldiers in private homes during peacetime (the little-remembered Third Amendment).

Really? Is that so? Soooo...Shapiro thinks that people would say that the "Right to Drive" is more important than the "Right to Bear Arms"?

Idiot.

I guess one could argue that cars should be outlawed since they kill more more people in year (by large numbers) than guns do. But wait! you say.....Cars don't kill people...the people that drive them do. Sound familiar doesn't it? Cars are just as much a tool as guns are. When in the hands of responsible people and knowledgable law abiding citizens they are tools used for good. In the hands of bad people...they are used for evil.

When you remove the ability for the good to defend themselves against the evil.....you create a tip in the balance and evil begins to gain ground. Just as Cho gained enough time and ground to spend his spare time planning the most awful shooting crime in american history. Perhaps if a student or a teacher was carrying a gun and used it for good....perhaps we would have alot more of that potential back we lost that day.
