Merry Christmas to gun manufacturers and sellers!

[Iceweasel]

It's going to be a wonderful Christmas if you deal in guns! Every time there's a mass shooting, gun nuts rush out to buy more in the mistaken notion that Obama is coming to take them away or shut down the sellers or manufacturers. Just think how many people are headed to the gun shops now in the wake of shootings in Lebanon, Paris, Mali, Colorado and California. (Of course some can't find Lebanon or Mali on a map, because 'Murica.) What better way to celebrate the birth of Christ, the Prince of Peace, than to buy an assault weapon! Get yours now! Maybe you can even find a dealer who gives a discount to Christians.

Gunmaker Smith & Wesson up almost 100% in 2015

On Wednesday, the San Bernardino shooting added to an already tragic lineup of gun violence this year that includes Charleston, South Carolina and Colorado Springs, Colorado, where just this week, a gunman killed three people at a Planned Parenthood Clinic.


As details of the latest tragedy continued to unfold, the market sell-off on Wednesday steepened amidst uncertainty about the motive in the San Bernardino shooting.

But one stock that continued to rise through much of Thursday and throughout gun-related violence headlines this year? Gunmaker Smith & Wesson (SWHC)—which clocked in over $500 million in sales last year—up 93% since January.

The company, which is a leading manufacturer of pistols, revolvers, tactical rifles, and black powder firearms, as well as hunting rifles, said in its latest conference call that strong sales are the result of increasing demand.

Since 1980, the number of guns in possession in the United States has essentially doubled to 350 million, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

Wedbush Securities estimates that wholesale sales of handguns and long guns (which includes shotguns and rifles) totaled about $4 billion in 2014, based on data released by the Department of Treasury on the collection of the Firearms and Ammunition Excise Tax. This marks a CAGR of 12% from 2005 to 2014, mostly driven by handgun sales, which comprise more than 70% of Smith & Wesson’s business.

I believe that most of the gun nuts don't see themselves as James Madison as much as Dirty Harry. They think that merely by carrying a loaded gun, they can be the hero gunslinger. Of course that means lots of collateral damage, but they are the hero! Hurray! "I put a bullet in his spine before it became an ugly situation."

Good point. Someone disagreed with me the other day and all 15 rounds missed the bastard. Took out two bicyclists though. But they had those bright flashing lights so everybody high fived me.

You have no idea what you are talking about.....try doing actual research into people who carry guns for self defense vs. what you dream up in your imagination....

Concealed carry gun owners are more law abiding than the average citizen and more law abiding than sworn police officers....please.........do some research...know the truth, the facts and reality of what you are talking about...

My husband and I both carry, it's purely defensive and for our and our children's safety. In fact 99.99999999999999% of the people I run into don't even know I have a gun.

If libs knew how many people were carrying they wouldn't leave the house. Maybe open carry isn't such a bad idea?

How many Americans who own guns are actually doing that?
I have not seen any.
I have seen reports of many Americans who have successfully defended themselves and without killing anyone.

Of course you have! Where do you get your news? Fox? NRA news releases(propaganda)? You want a rosy outlook on gun violence. Hide the tragedies. Ah! Guns! Is there nothing they cannot do? Guns always bring happiness, never dis pair!

Handguns are made for killin', they ain't no good for nuthin' else.

I have a need to kill things from time to time, most do not. And when all the guns go, so do mine. Got it? Remember it.

You want them banned, then man up and surrender yours now.
Until then, your arguments are moot.

Dreams, Dreams, Dreams.

14 are dead in California because ISIS can count on the PC crowd to help hide their work.

Now the same idiots want to support ISIS by disarming their victims.

Guns are being bought in record numbers because of Obama's failed policies.

That should piss off the PC crowd like PaintMyISISHouse. But for some reason you support the idiot.

That's because, he's not an idiot. And the fears and paranoia of those like you, isn't my problem, usually. Buy your deadly toys, you mostly kill your families or yourselves.
