At 69 I have never v**ed/regestered!! I think they are ALL crooks! Now we are finding out what I have known since 1968....the miltitary is right along with them! Besides....99.9% of what happens/new laws in Washington does not effect me. I listened to her ? but cut it off when he started talking. NO politition is ever SPOT ON!

Stan W. Loc: Tampa, Fl

LOL.

hj Loc: Florida

You shouldn't brag that you've never registered or v**ed. Shame on you!! And showing your ignorance that 99.9% of new laws and Washington activity doesn't affect you? Hello!! You must be a hermit living in a cave.

He's comparing his daughter's death (from a cause he doesn't mention) to the deaths of kids who were mowed down???? NOWHERE NEAR THE SAME! By the way. She died in an auto accident.

Extremely well put - and of course as it doesn't follow the narrative of the pearl-clutching l*****ts who have an agenda of eliminating guns and are merely using these tragedies as fodder to further their cause, it doesn't get much promotion.

Personally, I feel that along with Gov Bevin's points we can put some blame on the so-called "self esteem movement" that has been foisted on our kids for the past few decades - when little Johnny gets an award just for showing up after a while he genuinely believes he is "special" and deserves everything he wants because he "really really wants it!". I believe it's always been the case that some tiny percentage of people are wired in such a way that when they reach a point of anger or disappointment, they will 'go postal' - the difference is that now the bar to hitting that level has been lowered (again, because these folks genuinely believe they deserve wh**ever they want - after all, they always got awards!) such that it is a far more common situation. Just look at the two separate cases last year of high school seniors who hacked up the girls that refused to go to the prom with them...nothing to do about guns and everything to do with mental self-image and anger.

Personally I do not think you should voice your opinion on any political subject if you are not willing to do your civic duty of v****g. That is why so many have been willing to fight and die for this country to have the ability to choose our leadership.

Gov Bevin's remarks are on...

Say Cheese Loc: Eastern PA

I am what is called a super v**er, Since I have been able to v**e (52 years of v****g) I have only missed one primary e******n. I believe that v****g is so important that if you do not v**e you cannot complain about anything that is done in your community, your state or the country. If you do not v**e, start this year, get registered, and v**e.

Are you trying to say the parents would be less upset if a airplane fell on the building an k**led their children, or died from something toxic, or had a bus crash or anything else, then you must not have children. If you don't think he didn't feel the same from loosing his child to death your wrong. I am very sad for the death of these or any children regardless of how they died.

RRS Loc: Not sure

I don't think anyone could have said it any better. Anyone that listened to the question but not the answer and admitting to that is only showing their ignorance and then reaffirming it by saying that they never v**ed. People have died for the right to v**e. That remark only adds more validity to what Kentucky Gov. Bevin's assessment of the problem is that we are facing and the media is also a big part of our problem. Where I grew up we had two newspapers in our town, yes it was a big town. One printed the news and the other paper was an ambulance chaser. Today the News is presented with sensationalism to draw bigger ratings so they can charge more for ad time during the evening news. Just get a stop watch and see if in that 1/2 hour you receive more news or ads. If you haven't noticed the news is no longer straight up and down but leans very far to one side. The news media has an agenda and it's not just reporting the news.
