1) The Holocaust happened because Jews were unable to obtain guns due to Poland's notoriously strict gun laws.
2) The left wants an absolute gun ban - no guns at all, any type, for anyone, ever.
3) The right wants mass shootings, especially school shootings.
4) Everyone agrees we need to require better background checks and use more discretion in handing out gun licenses.
4.a The right cannot pass such legislation because it is a slippery slope to banning all guns, everywhere, for everyone.
4.b The left cannot pass such legislation because it is not enough.
5)  Every school in the US should have metal detectors at the entrance, be surrounded by a 30' cement wall and have armed guards in every classroom and hallway. The more guns around kids the better.
6) 7 year olds going through half an hour of security theater every day just to go to school is a perfectly normal and acceptable solution.
7) The second amendment entitles every US citizen to an AR-15.
8 ) Laws don't prevent crimes.

"I really believe I'd run in there even if I didn't have a weapon and I think most of the people in this room would have done that, too," Trump said.

Sure you would when pigs fly.

Lol, read it. It's a total self-promoting fluffed up piece of trash 'journalism'. It just quotes Trump, and then says one witness said the guy ran off before Trump appeared, with another saying Trump yelled stop and the guy stopped. I'm sorry, but this is nonsense.

As is any other speculation over what he would do if..... So no more so than the WaPo article. At least that is tabloid journalism.

Agreed to some extent. Bottom line, I'll take the implications of his draft deferments, the eagle incident, and the incident at his rally as they pertain to his recent statement on the Parkland shooting over the implication of his self-proclaimed stopping of the mugger. I don't think these things are even minorly damning for a politician - which would be fine if he weren't trying to proclaim himself Rambo.

I will take my chances with those who have shown in the past to run toward danger and help out over those who have shown to run away or do nothing.

Oh I don't think for a second that he would actually go in. It would be a very foolish thing to do anyhow (hey, maybe that is a reason to think he would go?)

I sort of wrote that here but not as explicitly.

WOW there is a foolish thing which @ChaimMoskowitz says Trump won't do! Never say he doesn't give Trump credit where it is due! :P

That comment reminded me the smallpox hut in A Connectcut Yankee in King Arthur's Court

http://etc.usf.edu/lit2go/174/a-connecticut-yankee-in-king-arthurs-court/3115/chapter-29-the-smallpox-hut/
The first two show more about how low WaPo has sunk than anything about Trump. It is probably true that he believes he would go in but never actually would. The WaPo article is Maddow material though. Democracy dies in darkness.
It is not a question of true. That he ducked when the guy rushed the stage was exactly the right thing to do. Should he have stood there waiting to be attacked by a potential assassin? This is exactly what the SS tells him to do. What should he have done with the eagle? He has no idea whether what it was doing was dangerous or not. This has nothing to do with whether his statement was true or not.

I tried it yesterday, and that was the result I got, they fixed it since.

ETA: Pistol Annies & Shotgun Microphone still bring up nothing.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
