Miss America 2013 Winner Mallory Hagan Gun Control Robot

Beauty and brains.  No wait… scratch that, just beauty:

Her reaction to winning (pictured below), was pretty much the same as my reaction to her stupid answer.  The answer, which made basically no sense considering the question that was asked.  Gun safety classes? Education? Proper use? Longer waiting period? WTF?

Miss-America-Mallory-Hagan

Coincidence that she was “Miss New York” before she won the national title?  hah.

I’m thinking the police should stop shooting people, and do more educating instead.  You know… because we need to give criminals a chance, they are people too.

Thoughts?

It’s not like she was selected for her brains, after all.

She could have said something a lot dumber than that. I actually think firearms safety courses in primary education would be a very good thing.

Why anyone puts credit or validation into pageants is beyond me. One look at honey booboo and you get a reflection of the majority of pageant life and people

Actually this is the most well thought out and articulated comment you will get from an average New Yorker. Good for her, toeing the state line. If she said anything different New York would strip her of her title. I cannot believe how people think here. We have one of the lowest shooting rates in the country but now we need to have the most restrictive control. Numbers do not matter here we need to ban “assault weapons and high-capacity clips”. But then asked about actual numbers, the definition of “assault weapon” or what the hell is a “high-capacity clip” it’s all blank stares.

I generally ignore all of these pageants, anyway. Now I know why; I can’t stand stupidity.

She’s Miss New York, but she grew up in Opelika, Alabama. If she wasn’t exposed to guns as a child, I would be extremely surprised.

Well her answer wasn’t that bad.

“The answer is to not fight violence with violence.”

She doesn’t get that the answer to a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Woul she have the police disarmed. Total airhead.

She is 22LR of women.

You have fun with her, but you don’t pick up the brass, you only do that for brass with value.

“I know no safe depositary of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.” –Thomas Jefferson to William C. Jarvis, 1820. ME 15:278

Also the gunman who shot-up those kids at Sandy Hook tired to buy another rife, but state law of CT requires a waiting period for certain firearms. So the he didn’t buy it and maybe put to use as the nut job plan to.
She knew that and said that was one possible solution.

John, to my knowledge Adam Lanza never bought any of his weapons, he stole them from his mother.

According to a report at nbcnews.com Adam Lanza, who murdered twenty children and six adults at the Sandy Hook Elementary School yesterday, had tried to buy a rifle at a Dick’s Sporting Good store on Tuesday. “Adam Lanza, 20, went to a Dick’s Sporting Goods store in Danbury, Conn., on Tuesday to buy the weapon, but was turned down because he didn’t want to undergo a background check or abide by the state’s waiting period for gun sales, the officials said.” Wait, what? We’re so confused. We thought, based on the incessant on-air emoting of of the usual anti-2A talking heads that we need more laws to prevent someone like Lanza from buying a gun. More laws that would — in the vast majority of cases — make it harder for law-abiding citizens to buy firearms, too. See, we’d heard that “the reality is that in the United States of America in 2012, it’s easier in many states to rent an automobile — to buy an automatic weapon than it is to rent an automobile. It’s more demanding.” Apparently we were misinformed.
