well, you seem pretty angry and aggressive, which i'm sure is because you are someone who is afraid you are gay
we've all seen so many right wing, anti-gay GOP politicians and /or religious leaders who turn out to be gay themselves - an i think i just found another one, You
but don't worry, there's nothing wrong with being gay, the bible is full of horse shit, you won't go to hell - gay people can be pretty cool, they're friendly and will accept you once you learn to accept yourself - even if you have a microscopic penis
and Just BS
if you can take a second away from being a constitutional law scholar in you Ivy League ivory tower can you provide evidence that "most killings take place in the places with the toughest gun laws"
- i'd love to see your stats on that
(as i know what you are saying is not true)
and, finally,
you said gun killings are mostly "by people that shouldn't have one to start with"
- so whats the story there, are you saying some people shouldn't have guns (so you support some gun control)
or
that these people who "shouldn't have one to start with" should actually have one - so they can kill and maim innocent victims?
which one is it ?
Cities with highest homicide rates, I think we can safely assume due to gun violence and not death by Iron Maiden.

9 of the 10 are cities in blue states.
Suicide açcounts as the number one instance of gun deaths. Yeah, we gotta stop the crazy mofos that wanna kill themselves, after we accomplish that please send the data to the Israelis so they can have a therapy session with Hezbollah and PLO bombers.

As for the ones that shouldn't have a gun in the first place, I am talking convicted felons to clarify and who decided during that short period of time in their lives that they were able to legally own a firearm, decided to perpetrate a crime with an illegally obtained weapon instead.

yeah but you would expect, in every country in the world, cities to have higher murder rates than countryside
red states have higher gun death rates in general
for suicides, do you maybe think if less people had guns, less would commit suicide by gun AND less would commit suicide in general
(as an absolutely instantaneous method wasn't so easily available - e.g. a gun)
fair enough for the clarification re: felons though
Ok. But you'll agree that it doesn't mean they wanted everyone, even the most psychotic people to have that right...
Then, where's the regulation of the militia ? Who regulates the militia ? it is wriiten "a well regulated militia militia" not "a totally chaotic militia" or "a militia free of all regulations".
Where's the "WELL REGULATED militia" when psychos like the Oregon shooter (or the Denver shooter, for example) can legally buy a gun ?
Where's the "WELL REGULATED militia" when anyone -psychos, criminals, drug-addicts, drug dealer, etc.- can buy guns in a gun-show ?
Each state's governor is the commander in chief of their respective state's national guard. They are well regulated and members can be increased if need be or in a time of war by legal armed citizens either by volunteer or conscription.
This was brought up in another thread but putting aside budgetary concerns (and that wouldn't be a real obstacle), who would be opposed in principle to having armed security and metal detectors with reinforced classroom doors and secure entry/exits for all schools? And drills for active shooter situations like they they have regular fire alarm drills or in the 50s duck and cover? That would be far more practical and doable than rescinding the 2nd amendment and confiscating all guns which is the only solution for eliminating gun violence.
Who would be against that? Unless you have such an aversion to guns that even armed security/off-duty police officers wouldn't be an option.
I think we know the answer to that when elementary school students are being suspended from school for nibbling their pop tarts into the shape of something even resembling a gun.
Our schools are the most vulnerable and after Beslan, I'm surprised have not been targeted in that regard here.

Then again, why psychopaths like the Oregon shooter legally have access to guns ? Don't you think that, when someone buy a gun, there should be verifications to check if the person is not a criminal and has not been diagnosed with mental troubles ?
You won't have the time to get your gun : as soon as the guy will see you getting it, he will shoot you.
The brain trust just destroyed his own argument. Even though he meant to say state guard, because the national guard can still be given orders by the federal government, whereas state guards answer only to their state. So yes Johan, the second amendment does refer to state guards, regulated by their state.
My daughter has been doing active shooter drills at school since she was 6. It's one of the many reasons we're leaving the country. As for the other measures, I've been a long time advocate of bulletproof doors on classrooms, since most school walls are solid brick or concrete, a solid lockable door would keep everyone inside reasonably safe, depending on how big and accessible the windows are. It's better than some bullshit $900 a piece bullet blanket that I saw some school trialing a while back.

There's someone in my home at 4 A.M, I gotta shoot that thug ! Oops, wasn't a thug...
:1orglaugh
'Real Men'?? That is just an urban myth perpetuated by weak willed conformist bitches!!!
how about real men don't carry a gun or a knife or any weapon at all
am not saying everyone who wants to carry a gun - whether concealed or open carry -
is a complete pussy, who feels they can't protect themselves in any other way,
who has some john wayne fantasy that they're gonna be a hero one day by shooting someone
and
who has massive feelings of sexual inadequacy
but its gotta be a majority of them, a big majority
It was a sarcastic comment.
I am a Christian and I know that the one who grasps the sword shall perish by the sword.
I think that most of the gun owners are afraid of criminals and they think that they are safe if they have weapons.
Something is very wrong with society if people do not dare to go to shop or to be at home without that they are armed.
I own several firearms but never carry unless I'm on my way to shoot.
I have always hated the idea of punishing or limiting people because a small % of us are assholes.
In a 'free' world you have to take the good with the bad otherwise it's just another form of oppression.
It's an empty debate in this country we cant get organized enough to pass a yearly budget let alone to amend the constitution.
