Changes His Opinion on Gun Control: 'Enough Is Enough"

"A country guitarist who performed at the Las Vegas music festival where a gunman killed 58 people on Sunday said he has changed his mind about gun control in the wake of the massacre."

"I've been a proponent of the 2nd amendment my entire life. Until the events of last night," Caleb Keeter, a guitarist for the Josh Abbott Band, wrote in a message on Twitter on Monday. "I cannot express how wrong I was. We actually have members of our crew with [concealed handgun licenses], and legal firearms on the bus. They were useless."

"Enough is enough," Keeter wrote, criticizing the shooter's "access to an insane amount of fire power." "Writing my parents and the love of my life a goodbye last night and a living will because I felt like I wasn't going to live through the night was enough for me to realize that this is completely and totally out of hand."
"We need gun control RIGHT. NOW," he said. "My biggest regret is that I stubbornly didn't realize it until my brothers on the road and myself were threatened by it."

Common sense

Got to wonder though, if this musician keeps speaking his own experience how long will it be until the NRA and right wing media make him chose between speaking out or having a career in music
 
His opinion carries the same Constitutional weight as yours or mine, anchovies.

None.

The Second Amendment is emotion-proof, anchovies.

Thick, that is the only way one can describe it, thick, for the umpteenth time, the FACT is that NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT IS ABSOLUTE, none, even your icon Scalia acknowledge the FACT in the Hueller case

Point being guns can be regulated Constitutionally just as the other rights in the Bill of Rights have been, FACT

Your whole "Constitution weight" inanity means little

Scalia is my icon, anchovies? Who told you that, anchovies? :dunno:

What you, I , or a musician "think" is not case law, anchovies.

The Second stands, anchovies.

Will you try to impose limits on my ownership of property because you don't like my property, anchovies?

What's your legal basis for such an argument, anchovies?

Answer, anchovies,

Interesting that you equate common sense as agreeing with you.

BTW, what the fuck it a whitness?

How does that make his opinion on the extent of someone's rights any more valid? I thought you lefties were all about equality.

"The second stands," a three word phrase that says nothing, the Third Amendment stands, does that have any significance?

As I said, thick, too bad your obstinateness prevents you from recognizing the facts, regardless, guns can be regulated legally and constitutionally, are, have been, and will be

And, no, I ain't imposing anything, but your ownership of certain property under certain conditions can be limited, another fact

When you're man enough to impose the limits you support, come and try to take my guns.

Think so, anchovies?

Prove it, anchovies.

I will understand if you can't, anchovies.

So now your admitting that you are the poster "Toxic Tittie," he is the one who posted the comment?

Weird why anyone would feel the need for a second title on an anonymous vehicle, oh wait, I get it, one is for your posts banning everyone so you can talk about what "liberals" think not allowing "liberals" to prove you wrong, and the other is for attempting exchanges on the formal forum, I understand

How's that working for you so far, anchovies?

As to "will be"... try it, anchovies.

"Can" and "will" are two different things, anchovies. Try to impose limits on my ownership of certain property and see what happens, anchovies.

Got to love it when they prove your point

No one wants your guns, contrary to the propaganda the NRA puts out and seemingly you have bought, gun regulation isn't gun grabbing, keep your guns, nobody cares, it is from this point forward that regulation dealing with the access to guns needs to be addressed. When some dimwit can go out and easily buy forty two guns of all kinds something ain't right
