Brady Response to Cheney Accident

Yes, Dick Cheney accidentally shot a friend and hunting partner on Saturday. The man, Mr. Harry Whittington, is reportedly sitting up in bed and cracking jokes today. Praise God that he is doing as well as he is, having just been shot. Yet, did you catch the response from the Bradys... you know the ones, "The Brady Law," Reagan shooting?

Jim and Sarah Brady came out brandishing their own comments to this accident. Those were shot out by someone at the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. Now, get ready, here is what the Bradys unloaded on us about this accident:

"Now I understand why Dick Cheney keeps asking me to go hunting with him," said Jim Brady. "I had a friend once who accidentally shot pellets into his dog - and I thought he was an idiot."

"I've thought Cheney was scary for a long time," Sarah Brady said. "Now I know I was right to be nervous."

First off, this was not "gun violence," as the name on their Campaign indicates. It was an accident. How many times must one say, "Words mean things."? The Bradys' words most certainly mean a lot, in and of themselves. They are mean-spirited. They are menial in scope. They have little to no real meaning whatsoever, especially meaningless for the Whittington family.

It is not Cheney who is "scary." It's people trying to take away guns from the American public who are scary. The Bradys would be happy to take away my right to bear arms. That better not ever happen, and if that ever does occur, it will be a truly sad day for each American citizen.
