I wish nukes didn't exist. I wouldn't touch one with a ten bazillion-foot pole or be around one for all the money in the world. We shouldn't even be making them. No one should.

Re: Gun Control
Why are elected folks better suited to control an atom bomb than you?An elected group of people, as in a government, yes.
I don't disagree. I would prefer nukes didn't exist. But they do.If it was possible to ensure NO body has the ability to own an atom bomb then I would prefer that...contrary to what you would prefer.
So: you choose security. To protect The Children.Freedom? Security? ..try explaining that to a parent of a child torn apart by an AR because people like you advocate that everyone has the right to weapons of mass destruction.

Yes of course, and I know you won't understand this simple concept, no guns in society = FAR fewer mass killings of children (and innocent chaps like me sitting in a restaurant)henry quirk wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 3:05 pmSo: you choose security.

Oh, well then glad you understand. All you need to do now is start lobbying for tighter restrictions on gun ownership.henry quirk wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 7:05 pmSo Hiroshima, Nagasaki: these events were okay becuz they passed muster?attofishpi wrote: ↑Thu Nov 09, 2023 6:38 pmBecause I might have a bad day and get really annoyed with humanity.

Yes. By all means, arm up. You never know when you might have to kill someone yourself instead of calling the police to handle the situation through the judicial process.henry quirk wrote: ↑Thu Jul 07, 2022 6:13 pm Let's talk about it.

When you completely erase the traditions of gun ownership and the necessary yet unfortunate need and use of violence from your culture, who is going to fight your wars?
When you build your perfect land of pacifism, who's going to stand up to the barbarians when they come knocking?
The society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting by fools... --Whoever

Re: Gun Control
With nukes and other bombs, missiles and mines, I think we all can agree that the difference between those and privately owned guns is one of type, and not just one of degree.

The nature of the property has no bearing on the right to it.

Re: Gun Control
Then I must conclude that you are arguing in favor of every American’s legal right to own such property as a nuclear weapon.henry quirk wrote: ↑Sat Nov 11, 2023 2:02 amThe difference is irrelevant.commonsense wrote: ↑Fri Nov 10, 2023 3:42 pm With nukes and other bombs, missiles and mines, I think we all can agree that the difference between those and privately owned guns is one of type, and not just one of degree.
