Gun Control Reform Activism

You assume he must have shot the boy by accident, though you have no evidence to support that. You express far more concern for him that a maimed 8 yr old boy. We are accustomed to gun nuts justifying any and every use of a gun as long as it's by a white man. If he kills a black male, like Trayvon Martin, all the better. Many of the gun nuts are banned from this group, which makes them very angry. They can't stand the fact there is one little corner of the internet where they can't spread NRA propaganda. This of course is a generalization characterizing the worst of them. Some are fairly reasonable, while some are unbearably self-entitled with no compassion for victims of gun violence. Most demonstrate no ability to show any concern for victims of gun violence (domestic violence, etc. .), even if they feel it. Most people read that story and think about the child. You worried about the shooter. That is why members here have thought you were a gunner. Since you aren't concerned about gun control, this isn't the appropriate group for you. This very story is being discussion in the General Discussion forum, which is not a safe haven group. It's open to all members. Here is the link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023609885
