Mass shootings almost always happen in "gun free" zones and the prison population is a result of many factors but the two biggest being the war on drugs and for profit prisons. Still never answered the original question. Why do you blame a tool for a murder only when it's a gun? Rubbish. ...

Why do you blame a tool for a murder only when it's a gun? You didn't answer my question? Nobody is blaming guns for the crime of murder. However guns are specifically designed for precisely this purpose so do you not regard this as a point relevant to the debate? What use does a gun have other tha...

Mass shootings almost always happen in "gun free" zones and the prison population is a result of many factors but the two biggest being the war on drugs and for profit prisons.

Still never answered the original question. Why do you blame a tool for a murder only when it's a gun?

Uh, huh. My guns have never been in the hands of a child and in the rural areas where I grew up we were taught the dangers of weapons from a very young age. Result? None of us ever fucked around with guns like a dumbass. No one I know ever shot anyone by accident or on purpose. It's a called being e...

Even morons acknowledge gun control; shame they can't think it through.

Says the guy who posted the picture of that control clearly not working.

Hold on while I report tour posts to be censored, HC, because the freedom of speech doesn't apply to the mass communications network that is the interwebz.

Ha! Trump ass sniffing? Hahahaha! Be more clueless. I dare you.

Did you read the quote in that post, Leo or are you just blind to implicit assertions that agree with your ideas? HC, the day I take lessons on my constitution from a socialist limey fuckwit like you is the day I'll cut my dick off and call myself Caitlyn Jenner. If the second amendment only applies...

Wait... Guns kill people "with ease" AND People kill people "without guns hesitantly" This is exactly the point bob is trying to make here. Why is it that when a person shoots another person it's the "guns" that kill people and not people killing people? If someone giv...

I live in Canada, not the U.S.. We aren't allowed RPGs. I also live in a place with the highest grade and second largest quantity of uranium in the world. It would be easier for us here to make a nuke than to own a gun! Does this deter you from disagreeing with me? :lol: Precisely how do you suppos...

But then I had argued similarly that, If guns are okay because they don't kill people, We should all be allowed to have bombs too! I think it would be cool to 'collect' a few nukes! :roll: Oh, ...and I'm a 'law abiding citizen too'! Why the hell would anyone want a nuke? Deterrence is the only reas...

And do you, Whit, think Bob's guns should probably be taken away given that he's he's clearly psychotic?

Bob may be delusional when it comes to his prophecy but I don't think he's a threat to anyone's physical wellbeing. So, no.

First, you can't buy a machine gun in a shop in the US. Fully automatic weapons are rare and highly regulated. The "assault" weapons the left wing wankers talk about are semi automatic just loke any other semi auto hunting rifle. The only difference is the exterior. Calling an AR-15 an &qu...

Idk what that is, but my deployments have made me pretty damn near an expert at spades But Ouzo, the ultimate game, is the only game that can offer you spiritual salvation (see http://church-of-ouzo.com/pdf/ouzo-prophecy.pdf ). No thanks. If I want to play card games based on fiction I'd get into m...
