DES MOINES, Iowa – For 50 years, the left-leaning columnist Donald Kaul has raged against guns, but after the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre, he says, it’s time for “anger,” killing gun owners and dragging legislators who disagree with gun control behind pickup trucks until they get the message.
The Pulitzer Prize-nominated columnist penned an alarming screed published in the Des Moines Register in which he further suggested the Second Amendment be repealed and the National Rifle Association be declared a terrorist organization.
“During my 50-year career,” Kaul wrote, “every time some demented soul would take a semiautomatic gun and clean out a post office, a school or a picnic, I’d get up on my soap box and let loose with a withering diatribe about guns, the National Rifle Association and weak-kneed politicians. Did it about 75 times, give or take.”
Yet each time, he lamented, the only result was a spike in gun sales.

“That’s obscene,” he opined. “Here, then, is my ‘madder-than-hell-and-I’m-not-going-to-take-it-anymore’ program for ending gun violence in America.”
His first step: “Repeal the Second Amendment, the part about guns anyway. It’s badly written, confusing and more trouble than it’s worth. … Surely the Founders couldn’t have envisioned weapons like those used in the Newtown shooting when they guaranteed gun rights. Owning a gun should be a privilege, not a right.”
Second: “Declare the NRA a terrorist organization and make membership illegal. … Make ownership of unlicensed assault rifles a felony. If some people refused to give up their guns, that ‘prying the guns from their cold, dead hands’ thing works for me.”
Third: “Then I would tie Mitch McConnell and John Boehner, our esteemed Republican leaders, to the back of a Chevy pickup truck and drag them around a parking lot until they saw the light on gun control.”
“And if that didn’t work,” Kaul concludes, “I’d adopt radical measures.”
Kaul explains his dramatic measures this way: “The thing missing from the debate so far is anger – anger that we live in a society where something like the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre can happen and our main concern is not offending the NRA’s sensibilities.”
It would appear Kaul has supplied his missing ingredient.
...And I don't want no pardon
For what I was and am,
I won't be reconstructed
And I don't care a damn.
Get a rope and be done with donald kaul, he's too worthless to shoot!

Let's hope that cooler heads prevail with the present debate... but (hypothetically with my tinfoil hat on) if anti-gun activists do form lynch mobs hunting for NRA members and law abiding gun owners, it would certainly be an interesting education for the ignorant in exactly how a semi-automatic weapon is practical for home defense.

This little worm poop likes to make the snowballs and he gets someone else to throw them. If you think it's that easy David, stop talking about it and get on with it. One more thing, you better know what your doing.

Indeed. If he/she has the courage and conviction to do what he/she foments then so be it. Allow him/her to disarm his/her fellow citizens unarmed...alone. Should the disarmee (an insane word in an insane world ) be willing to grant a "fair" fight via Hand to Hand combat I'd hope this "journalist" is up to the task.
He is an idiot. Plan and simple. Liberalism/socialism at its worst(or best depending on how you look at it). Too bad poetic justice hasn't hit him yet. Hopefully it will very soon.
I had a SCAR 17 and 16. I also had a bunch of Glocks and a couple H&K pistols. Oh and a DDM4, but I sold everything when our government told me these dangerous tools can actually hurt someone. Apparently they grow legs and go on killing sprees.
