• ‘Worst Day of My Presidency’: Recalling Sandy Hook Massacre, Obama Vows to Put ‘Full Weight’ Behind Gun Control Legislation

  December 31, 2012 at 5:49pm

  worst day(s) of my life, hmm let me think…. millions of the babies killed in their personal ovens…..foolish & mishandled ventures into Iraq and Afghanistan…a lot of kids got killed there……fast and the furious killed how many? …and still counting. How’s that Arab Spring working Mr President? It is working so well the Sec of State dare not speak. I haven’t had a good day by the your way of measuring it in a long time…

  I noticed inner city schools don’t have a mass murder problem… Maybe that’s because of armed guards and all the packing gang bangers. Who’d a thunk it? I’m polite to Mean Marvin because he’s carrying a .38. I may not get edjukated, in an inner city school, but I sure as shooting gonna make it out alive. Gun free zones is a policy failure. It has cost the lives of countless teachers and their precious cargo – fresh-faced kids. Kids that won’t go home to momma ever again. So I will work actively to pass legislation requiring every school teacher and administrator become skilled with a pistol. I will work actively to return gun clubs to middle and high schools. This will re-instill the idea of self-defense and reliance in our schools. ‘cuz GFZ ain’t doing the job.

Neal Armstrong’s first spoken words were, “My foot is on the moon.”
