Won´t you let dad protect me

Mr President? Families in Utah
protest against gun control laws

Daily Mail [UK], by Snejana Farberov

Original Article

Posted By:Attercliffe, 3/3/2013 7:35:17 AM

Protesters in Salt Lake City came armed to a Saturday rally against gun control laws, among them a two-year-old girl bearing a toy six-shooter and carrying a sign with a message for the president. [Snip] The little girl, sporting a pink shirt, matching pink boots and a flower in her blond curls, was clutching a cardboard sign nearly as big as she is that read: ´Mr President, sir, why don’t you want my mom + dad to protect their 2 girls like you protect your 2 girls - with gun?´ The pint-sized protester was only one of dozens of children

Stupid idea...posters here are appalled every time the White House brings out kids to support their ideas, so why is it suddenly okay if your idea is opposite that of the president?

The Obama daughters are protected by trained professionals, not Dad having a loaded pistol under the pillow where the girls, when under the age of 6, might accidentally discover it. Sadly, there are far more cases of a child discovering a loaded gun in the house and firing it than there are of the loaded gun defending said child in an incident.

I have no problem with adults owning guns...but they need to handle them responsibly. Keep them out of the inquisitive hands of children (unless under direct supervision of a responsible adult). Keep them away from any relatives with serious mental illness.

See the little kid in the orange shirt, with a toy six-gun? Notice how he doesn´t have his finger on the trigger? He´s been trained.

The kids who shoot themselves and each other "accidentally" are those who are unfamiliar with firearms. Kids raised around weapons learn how to be safe.

What´s wrong with forming a "children´s army" of marchers to protest that their parents are not permitted to protect them any more if Obama gets his way?

We need a major SwiftBoat-ing from American citizens. A media blitzkreig emphasizing that protecting one´s family and children is a right, not a dispensation from the White House, media moguls and Hollywood.

Somebody shoot me. I almost agree with part of #3´s post. Kids should not be at political rallies of any kind. They are not old enough to have a valid opinion on anything, and it is just creepy.

Yes, they are cute. Yes it is good to teach them about gun safety and marksmanship. My kids were taught as I was, and I am teaching my grandkids now. It is more important now than ever. Just please, leave them at home on protest day.

Agree with #6 whole heartedly. Chicks with guns are totally hot.

It must be depressing to be surrounded with people so incompetent that they are afraid of what they might or might not do if they are within reach of a weapon. People so stupid to think if they had a handgun they would keep it loaded under their pillow? And that’s what ‘untrained unprofessional’ people with weapons do? And that the only ‘trained professionals’ are Secret Service…and of course….the police!
Once one moves away from from the circle of nitwits trembling at the thought of a big, ugly revolver….. into the real world where there are millions of people capable of owning, handling, carrying and (if necessary) using a weapon safely it becomes clear that, first of all, it isn’t rocket science, and second, it’s not the big bug-a-boo that liberals make it out to be.

This would make an awesome TV commercial. Nothing wrong with having children in a positive light.

The taxpayers are paying for the protecion of Obama´s children as they do all children of a president. Most people cannot not afford to hire professionals to protect their family. I Dad skilled in the use of firearms is a great Dad and protector.

Responsible parents are responsible, slobs aren´t and no amount of government intervention will change that. Meanwhile, I sure wish communities would revive the ´shooting matches´ that used to be a normal part of America. I´d happily go target to target against the local police, and especially the NY state police, for a turkey. I´d have to do it under an assumed name though, because the NY state police are the Governor´s private police force. They gleefully collect info on opponents and do things like reduce screening points at Albany anti-gun ´safe act´ rallies. Then they turn up the sensitivity meters on the detectors at the reduced entry points. ´Trained professionals,´ that´s just one of the problems with that exemption.

Having these way too numerous Oryctolagus cuniculus in our society is just sad. And they appear to not have a clue about ´trained professionals´. #7 has the right idea.

These people at the rally appear to be with their own children, NOT someone´s child acquired for a photo op.

#10, 17 - these libtards use the phrase ´trained professionals´ as a dog whistle for ´only the government´. They never have an answer when asked, "What about those of us who were trained to even higher standards than the aforementioned ´professionals´, but who don´t currently work for the government?" That´s when some of them blurt out the truth - they believe only the government (and its agents) should have the weapons. They aren´t really Americans, just proto-collectivist-slaves working to help their future would-be masters take over.

They are two of the most glamorous women in the world, their every outfit forensically examined by fashionistas--and each will give birth to her first child in July. But when it comes to the style stakes, any similarities between the Duchess of Cambridge and reality star Kim Kardashian end there. Kate, 31, has always been the epitome of elegance and at six months is still svelte, with a barely-visible Royal bump. She has also stayed loyal to her classic dress style, favouring demure wrap dresses and beautifully tailored coats. Kim appears to have taken it less easily in her high-heeled

It was cynical. It was calculating. And it was done out of malice in a ham-fisted plot which went wrong. The trial spoke volumes about the sheer nastiness of the individuals involved.

A coral reef in Northern Australia severely damaged by warming seas has managed to completely heal itself in just 12 years, stunned researchers have found. The team found that being left alone to breed on its own was key. The discovery raises hope that other damaged reefs could ´regenerate´. The new research shows that an isolated reef off the northwest coast of Australia that was severely damaged by a period of warming in 1998. It was hit by coral bleaching, caused by higher water temperatures that break down the coral´s symbiotic relationship with algae that provide food for coral growth.

Hackers posted a picture of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un portrayed as a pig on the country´s official flickr account today. The account and the official Uriminzokkiri Twitter account were apparently hacked today as tensions in the Korean Peninsula continued to rise. The North’s Uriminzokkiri Twitter and Flickr accounts stopped sending out content typical of that posted by the regime in Pyongyang, such as photos of North’s leader Kim Jong Un meeting with military officials. Instead, a picture posted today showed Kim’s face with a pig-like snout and a drawing of Mickey Mouse on his chest.

As the US and China grow increasingly involved, Kim Jong-un must be brought into line if war is not to be triggered by an act of recklessness. There are two schools of thought about what lies behind North Korea’s increasingly frenzied posturing. The first goes like this: the rhetoric emanating from Pyongyang--including calls to “break the waists of the crazy enemies [and] totally cut their windpipes”--is no worse than their decades-old ritualistic promises to turn South Korea into a “sea of fire”. What we are witnessing, according to this theory, is nothing more than an inexperienced leader

Anyone who remembers the halcyon dreams of the 1990s, of civil society spreading the world over, heralding a new peaceful, global millennium, must marvel at the path the young 21st century has taken. Even those who paid attention to global Jihad before the millennium could not imagine how vulnerable the West would prove in the coming, wildly asymmetrical war. Those who, over the course of the last 13 years, have awakened to the ever-growing danger of Islamism and to the astonishing inability of decent people--Muslims and non-Muslims--to effectively oppose its aggressions, owe themselves a brief lesson in cognitive warfare, and

President Obama is going to give a portion of his salary back to the government to show solidarity with the federal workers who took pay cuts during the sequester. [Snip] His move comes as hundreds of thousands of public service workers will be sent home without pay for a number of days over the next six months in an effort to cut spending. The President´s annual salary is $400,000, meaning that a 5 per cent pay cut would amount to $20,000 for the year. That said, it is unclear whether Mr Obama will extend this measure so that

Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford publicly debuted the woman he sacrificed his political career for four years ago as he won the GOP nomination for a vacant U.S. House seat on Tuesday. His fiancée Maria Belen Chapur stood by his side as he delivered his victory speech and thanked her for putting up with him throughout his race against former county council member Curtis Bostic. [Snip] It is the first time he has stepped out publicly with Chapur after he disappeared from South Carolina in 2009 and returned to confess to an extramarital affair with the Argentine woman.

Sanford now faces five more weeks on the campaign trail before a May 7 showdown with Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, whose business background and moderate politics are expected to create a tight contest. Lowcountry voters haven’t elected a Democrat from the 1st District for more than three decades, but Colbert Busch already has shown

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

To hear some tell it, her decision will be dispositive for all other Democrats thinking of entering the race.

If she runs, she clears the field.” It´s an understandable conclusion, given Clinton´s stature in the Democratic Party and her 70 percent
