... "Do the widows turning in a rusty clunker that's been in the closet for decades know Cooper's rules for how you treat a gun, where you point it, what's behind where you're pointing it and where your finger never ought to be until you're ready to fire? Does everyone hoping to get a gift card in exchange for proving themselves kapos of convenience know how to check the types of firearms they're turning in to see if they're unloaded, and to safely do that if they're not? Including checking for a round in the chamber instead of just relying on removing the magazine? ..." ... |

"For those who wonder why MSNBC has lost nearly half of its viewers, this might serve as yet another example. A poll, hosted on MSNBC.com, asked a simple question:"
"Do you think people should be allowed to carry guns in public?"
"People were given three options for answering and, with 90,000+ votes cast, here are the current numbers (as of July 6, 2014):
- 88% � Yes! The Second Amendment guarantees it. (79,000+ votes)
- 8% � No, it's too dangerous. (7.266 votes)
- 4% � Only for self defense. (3,636 votes)" ...

"Last week, Target issued a notice on its website 'respectfully' asking customers not to bring guns into its stores. Comments from Facebook are edited for clarity and grammar:"
"I don't have a knee-jerk reaction to guns in general. However, when I walk into a Target with my child and see rifles slung over backs, my knee begins to twitch. These people are not the types I grew up with, and they appear to love their guns a little too much."
"Whether or not a state's law allows open carry, and whether or not a business asks you to refrain from doing so, you should think twice, unless you are trying to garner more opposition to your cause." ... |

"Imagine living in a country where armed soldiers crash through doors to arrest and imprison citizens merely for criticizing government officials. Imagine that in this very same country, you�re watched all the time, and if you look even a little bit suspicious, the police stop and frisk you or pull you over to search you on the off chance you�re doing something illegal. Keep in mind that if you have a firearm of any kind while in this country, it may get you arrested and, in some circumstances, shot by police." ... |

"Despite his over-staged TV ads touting his Marine service, Pat Roberts is a coward."
"I wrote to him after the Newtown tragedy to ask why he was blocking gun reform, in the wake of not only those two dozen little children�s deaths, but also Columbine, Virginia Tech, mosque and movie theater massacres and countless other senseless deaths by assault-type weapons. I read there have been more than six dozen school shootings since Newtown." ... |

"Churchgoers in Gainesville remain divided about the state�s sweeping new gun law that took effect July 1.
Under what has been dubbed the �guns everywhere� law, houses of worship can choose whether to allow licensed holders to carry concealed weapons on their premises.
