It was a joke. Lighten up, man!

Where is this true that you can walk in to a store and buy a gun in 3 minutes? Where I'm from its background checks, waiting periods, and approval/denial from the local police chief in some instances.

And I can be devils advocate for my joke: anybody can go on craigslist and buy a car private party right now and do what Ted did, if that's how they roll.

I can, with a CCW, go into a store here in Southern Madagascar and walk out 5 minutes later with a gun. In Massachusetts, with my Pistol Permit and Concealed Carry License it still takes a day or three! to get a handgun or high capacity rifle.

But this goes back to my earlier point, which is now moot because you say you were only joking.

Police: Son likely stabbed Va. state Sen. Creigh Deeds, shot himself

The day before he apparently stabbed his father at the family’s home in rural Bath County, the son of Virginia state Sen. R. Creigh Deeds underwent a psychiatric evaluation but was not admitted to a hospital, because no bed was available. Deeds was listed in fair condition late Tuesday after his son, Austin, stabbed him in the face and chest, then shot himself in what investigators suspect was an attempted murder and suicide.

The incident thrust the senator back into the spotlight after several years of quiet. Deeds (D) vaulted to the statewide political stage in 2009 as the Democratic nominee for governor, only to lose to Republican Robert F. McDonnell (R). After the defeat, Deeds went through a divorce and largely receded from public view, even though he stayed on in the Senate.

The violence also culminated what appears to have been a downward spiral for Deeds’s son, Austin, 24, a banjo-playing former campaign volunteer for his father who dropped out of college last month and whose apparent psychiatric problems had prompted an examination Monday.
The attack on the senator brought new scrutiny to Virginia’s mental-health system. Six years after the Virginia Tech massacre, which prompted an outpouring of attention and dollars for state mental-health care, advocates still say the system is starved for money and reform. Lawmakers, state officials and mental-health advocates expressed agreement Tuesday that a shortage of beds for patients in crisis is one significant problem.
On Monday, a magistrate issued an emergency custody order for Austin Deeds, who was also known as Gus, after he had been evaluated by officials at the Rockbridge County Community Services Board, said Mary Ann Bergeron, the executive director of the Virginia Association of Community Services Boards. The boards oversee the local provision of mental-health services across Virginia.

Dennis Cropper, who leads the Rockbridge County Community Services Board, also confirmed the younger Deeds’s psychiatric evaluation, according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Rockbridge officials had called hospitals in the area looking for a spot but were unable to find one, Bergeron said. “I can tell you right now, it was multiple hospitals that they called,” she said. “That is a very rural area. The hospitals are few and far between.”
Bergeron said local hospitals have been reducing and in some cases eliminating psychiatric wards, making it more difficult to find spots for people requiring involuntary detention, particularly in more rural parts of the state.
“I wouldn’t say this happens every day, but it’s more common than we’d like for it to be,” Bergeron said.

OP: America Blames Obama. Approval rating sinks to 37% It's such a relief for people to finally wake up and join the party.

Interesting little tid-bit for ya on this. CNN actually shows a 41% approval rating, as do most other "legit" polls. Washington Times is the only one understating at 37%. Regardless, Bush was at less than 20% approval at this point in his presidency. And that poor shmuck did it all on his own. I would say the Republican party is certainly much to blame for the nations current affairs and the president's approval rating. So kudos to you guys! Job well done making the country into shambles and ever increasing the complete distaste of politics in the general public.

When you justify Obamas shitty approvals by comparing them to bush, you're accurately implying Obama is a retard.

You only strengthen your case for Obamas ineptness by asserting that bush' stupidity was all his doing but Obama can only fuck up WITH the help of republicans.

The irony is priceless.
