Dosen't anyone find it ironic that repulicans what new mental health care despite the fact they where the ones who slashed it?
Well ma'am, you aren't talking to the gun lobby. Â You are talking AT all American citizens by deciding what you think others need. Â I don't believe these anti-gun folks are educated about firearms.
BTW I noticed you can't contact either of those woman by email directly They are afraid of the truth.
To ceasefire; Read this chart.

Sic em Lars!
BTW, Lars > those two uninformed twits.
Funny that he had to do his interview from the gun shop because KATU wouldn't let him into the studio with his gun.
 @brentbusch Pinko libs
HAHAHAAA!!!   Feinstein's trying to ban assault weapons under the guise that they serve no other purpose but killing mass amounts of people, and at the same time schools in her state are equipping themselves with the same rifles. Uber-liberals are as duplicitous, intellectually dishonest and mind-numbingly ridiculous as their ultra-right-wing counterparts.

Swallow this, Okamato.

Lars hit it on the button,  MENTAL HEALTH. not bullets, clips, pistol grips, hand grips, rap music or marijuana.  in most cases mental health goes unreported in low in families, make psychological  evaluation and counseling cheaper and accessible. It wont stop all the killing but it will help. its as if our government doesnt want to face up to the fact that it needs to start taking care of people with mental health problems they dont even want to do it our soldiers when they return home from war with p.t.s.d
Â
face the facts
Eric Holder brainwashed them well, just like he planned;Â http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nM0asnCXD0
Military "STYLE" assault rifle. Since when does "STYLE" kill anyone? I can put numbers and sponsor stickers on my car but that dosen't make it a NASCAR race car! These ladies, and many more people like them should beware. When you make rash decisions based on emotion and not facts then our other rights would vanish in an instant. People that are not interested in firearms never want to make an effort to learn about them and that makes them dangerous. In other words, if you're not willing to learn the subject....then keep your mouths shut! Go Lars!
Did anyone notice that the gun shop he's at has Pmags in stock? Anyone know where this is...I could use a few of those 30 round mags...
 @Milehisnk That's NW Armory. It's on 99E on the left right about 1/4 mile south of where you get onto River Rd.
Lars stuck with the facts and reality. Thank you, Lars!
Thanks Lars. Well, it looks like those two are convinced that our Government will not be taking away our firearms. I find that quite predictable. I'm sure the President, United Nations, Hillary and all the rest were thinking "small steps" up until last month when these murders happened. They've certainly picked up the pace. My goal- to keep on protecting our rights to: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. This is still a Great Country and I want it to stay that way.
-_- why dont we make everybody live in a bubble......death happens as insensitive as that sounds it does okay, these gun ban things are retarded.....as if making EVERYTHING banned whats next a crayon...nope thats non toxic how bout we ban the SSRI's that are chemically screwing the brain and causing these issues to erupt.......stop being pansy's people good grief were the land and home of the brave and actually it should be the home of the scared and cowardly.
THE PRES OF THE USA WANTS ALL GUNS THIS IS JUST THE FIRST STEP , IF THESE 2 WOMEN WANTS TO CHECK THE GUN PROBLEM WITH GUN USEÂ Â Â CHECK OUT THE NUMBER ONE GUN USED IN CRIME THAT HAS BEEN USED IN MOST MURDERSÂ Â Â Â ITS THE RAVEN 25 WITH 7 SHOT CLPÂ Â Â YOU TWO LADYS NEED TO GO ON THE FACTS , LIKE YOU SAY OBAMA IS NOT AFTER OUR GUNS YOU ARE HIGH ON SOMETHING TO THINK HE TELLS THE TRUTH ABOUT ANYTHING HE HAS INTENDED TO DO , 99% LIES
Lars for President!
Is that a real nose?

Okamato. Hey, there. Decide whether it's going to be your children, nieces, nephews or your husband you're going to send off to confiscate weapons. You didn't even have to register for selective service. You have a great big fat mouth and a great big fat head, but your -ass- isn't about to go over and confiscate Lars Larson's guns, so, who's gonna do it for you?
There's the phrase "military-style assault weapons."  I can swap out the stock on one of my big bad guns and suddenly it's not a military-style assault weapon because it doesn't have a pistol grip. Ridiculous, but the recurring phrase "military-style assault weapon" language is straight from Feinstein's website and it bubbles to the surface among anti-gun politicians and the media. Curious.Lars Larson drives me crazy most days but when it comes to the 2nd Amendment he's exactly on point. At Columbine, instead of using ten 13-round magazines, Harris used 13 ten-round magazines.  Why are these ignorant fat-heads unwilling to discuss this? Idiots.
Lars your the voice of America! Or at least what it used to be! It is to bad so many have lost sight of what we were built on! Your Debate was awesome! You nailed all three of them to the wall! They were struggling with their facts.. and could really just use the usual case= emotion. I say we impeach the traitor and elect you as President! Rebuild our broken Nation!
We are not fighting people with cold hard facts against cold hard facts. If that were the case, the case would be closed. We are fighting gun ignorant people who are brainwashed by our government and liberal media. They think with their hearts that are still bleeding for the families of the shooting victims and not with their heads. They are brainwashed into believing guns are to blame and everyone who owns guns are crazy. We are fighting a fight that in a sense is like a game of chess and the government has been making their strategic moves over the last couple decades and using the media and bleed heart liberals as their pawns. This has been in the political agenda for quite a while and Obama simply used a horrific event to capitalize on and make his move. He realizes the restrictions he is trying to enforce would not have done anything to help stop the Newtown shooting. He uses kids as pawns to tear at the hearts of Americans trying to make them believe he is only doing it for the children.  Then comes off saying "If we can save one child, we should". Now the bleed heart liberals honestly feel he is trying to save the lives of children and gun owners are trying to kill them. If Obama were true to his word he would ban abortion and save the lives of thousands of children every month. "If we can save one child, we should" coming from someone who is pro Live Birth abortion and partial birth abortion. How is allowing a women to go almost full term, then having her go into labor and deliver all of the child but the head, then killing the child with a rod into it's brain. Yes, Obama is OK with that happening daily, but has the audacity to say "If we can save one child, we should" when it comes to his personal agenda on gun control. People need to wake up and see what is happening before it's too late!!!
I am in NO way trying to minimalize the murders at Newtown, CTC, and Aurora and feel deeply for the victims family and friends. I too would LOVE to move toward finding a solution that works. It's just that we are not moving in the right direction and it makes me upset and disappointed knowing the government would rather move toward their own agenda than to pursue real options that could help.
Lars - I thought you did a great job presents the facts, making your point and not flipping out on those two ignorant ladies like most people would have done.
Â
"newtown, Newtown, newtown" that about sums up those two ignorant females. Learn your stuff before you try and prance around stating somthing is a bad thing.
Â
 @Andy I just want either of these dumb gas-heads to tell us which of their husbands or sons they're going to send off to confiscate those magazines and guns, because we all know neither of these women are going to do it.  Liberals sending others to fight their battles.
Lars is correct when he says that the ladies don't know what they are talking about.
I am very concerned when the statement is made that an assault rifle was used at the Sandy Hook School murders.
It was 4 hand guns that were used! The assault rifle was not removed from the car trunk until after the murder killed himself inside the school. He did not use the assault rifle! To use this case to ban the assault rifles is just plain fraud.
