The Suzanna Hupp testimony

Suzanna Hupp testifies before congress and recalls the story when George Jo Hennard drove into Luby's Restaraunt, in Killen, Texas, Oct. 16, 1991, then opened fire on patrons, reloading several times, until he killed 23 people, wounding 20 more, then finally killing himself.

Until they can remove all the guns from the world and all the crazy people off the streets, we must be allowed to defend ourselves. Typical liberals (and the Brits!) would want you to depend on society to protect you and have you call 911, but it just may take the rest of your life for help to arrive! Then when they do show up (while you're still waiting) they set up a perimeter, assess the situation, formulate a plan and finally put the plan into action. Will you be able to wait that long? In the case of woman's scenario, just one person with a concealed weapon permit could have made a difference. This all happened in less time than typical police response time (what? let's say 4 minutes? or am I being generous here?) The last thing I want to see is a shootout in a public setting, but if I'm out with my family and some nut with a gun goes berserk, you can be sure I'll be praying that somebody didn't notice the 'Gun Free Zone' sign on the door. As being one to not 'disobey the law' I will have, most sadly, left my weapon in the car. You may think it's paranoid to want to carry a concealed weapon, maybe rightly so, but I'd be willing to bet that every last person that found themselves in such a situation, Virginia Tech, Trolley Mall, Columbine, Lane Bryant, and countless others, all thought "It will never happen to me" or more likely, the thought never crossed their mind at all. Well, it's happening to us, and more and more frequently. It MAY just happen to you. Gun control does not work! Just ask anyone in New York or Washington DC. The most 'control' and yet the most gun violence and crime. I don't get it. I thought gun control is supposed to REDUCE crime and violence. I commend the police, for doing what they do, but they can't be everywhere, and more importantly, where you need them and when. There may come a time when you will only have yourself to depend on. If I'm not in a 'gun free zone', I'm ready.

Wow! I want to hear what this great Patriotic woman has to say! - Just look at the smug look on Shumer's stupid face! Gear up America! These guys have MARTIAL LAW on their minds! When Americans realize that the largest transfer of wealth and consolidation of power in Human history has already taken place! - They are going to turn off their TVs and get into the streets! And THEY are creating it! AMERICA! ARM YOURSELF! DEFEND YOUR CONSTITUTION!

America as we know it is on it's death bed. The country has turned into a farm breeding 'sheeple'. Too wrapped up in their pathetic lives to care. They buy what the media sells them without question. They vote for media endorsed candidates, expecting something 'new'. Your average Joe, doesn't know or even care about the Constitution. I'm afraid it's too late. The government is no longer 'of the people' but of a select few without our interests in mind, just their own.

@JimIgnatowski did you write the discription to this video ... you say that liberals are to blame for this ...? wow are you an idiot then !

[JimIgnatowski]

@stiggyh ...and just what part of my description do you feel is inaccurate? Who's most responsible for ineffective and restrictive gun control policies that only affect those who choose to obey the law in the first place? To say that going berserk and shooting people at random is a 'right wing' thing makes me wonder who's really the idiot here. We have crazy people on both sides of the aisle. The current state of our government is a strong testament to this fact.

@JimIgnatowski a survey has been made on criminals and it showed that most of them dont vote but the ones who do vote are almost all right wing

[JimIgnatowski]

@stiggyh Offhand, do you know the source? Sounds like an interesting read.

I think it's really hard to classify criminals as left or right. It's a safe bet they couldn't care less who's running the show as long as they're free to prey upon the rest of us. Of all those I know and would classify as 'liberal', hardly any vote and the rest couldn't care less what happens with the government, as long as they get their welfare check on the 1st of the month.

I guess the first ammendment isn't as cherished as the 2nd ammendment here. Censorship. Some day you'll need to live in the real world, whomever you are.

Someone's afraid of my posts. Deleted 2. Can't handle some challenges to his/her logic.
