So and again that still does not change that MOST mass shooters are born here. Nor does it change most gun deaths are in the home/neighborhood and the victim is murdered by someone they are familiar with. The PP shooter was not Muslim. The Church shooter was not Muslim.
Again, the makers and industry love this distraction, it avoids the real issue of ease of access to the guns.

The goal is still the same, get more voices on the subject. I'm not offended by your desire for it to stop. I want it to stop as much as, or maybe even more than, you do, but that's not the only thing you've said. You've insulted and offended people by using strawmen and arguments that don't even apply to them. Why don't you try actually reading what people write instead of immediately going on the offensive as if everyone is automatically against your arguments? It's exhausting!

Brian, the statistics clearly show that the solution to guns is more guns and bigger guns. If everyone there had had a gun he wouldn't of stood a chance. What aren't you getting about this?

No, if more guns were a solution we would NOT have an increase in these events year after year. The AZ tea party shooters murdered TWO armed cops, then went into a Wal Mart and murdered an armed civilian. The Oregon shooting had people carrying on campus. On of them was military, that guy said he wanted to do something but his training kept him from it. Is that really what you want? Everyone armed? That is a police state, a paranoid state, not a free society.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Quote:I'm against gun control laws because it's asinine to deprive a nation's entire population of rights just because a few people get shot. There is no state in the union where you are allowed to drive drunk. Why is that less an infringement of your fucking rights than saying you can not have an automatic or semi-automatic weapon?
