a gun is a tool...dont blame the tool for the actions of the person behind the tool. Yes, they make killing easy, but the people determine how to use the tool. Take all of the law abiding citizens guns away, and the criminals will be the only one with guns. It doesnt matter what laws are in place, if you are deranged enough to want to kill someone with a gun, you'll be able to get a gun, most likely illegally. Not to mention that if you really wanna kill somebody, and can't get a gun, you'll still find a way to kill them. There's no such thing as a perfect society, and life is inherently dangerous. Now i'm just rambling.

You would be in favour of all countries around the world being in possession of nuclear weapons?
Why not? It's only a tool.

QuoteThere is nothing law abiding about a criminal who intentionall buys a gun, with valid ID etc. and transfers that weapon to a felon.
That is called a straw purchase, and is a FELONY.
Try again.
You're saying that these ostensibly "law abiding" purchasers are taking advantage of ridiculously lax rules to let criminals get guns from "law abiding" dealers whose sloppy business practices allow it to happen?
Well, there's another loophole that should be closed! Thanks for pointing it out.

"Ridiculously lax rules" ? What a crock of shit!
Name ANY other purchase where you have to pass a Federal background security check. Name ANY other purchase where the seller has to maintain records of the sale for life.

Gonna come up with a future crime stopping machine?
If not why are you still able to purchase a firearm?

So how come they are so easily circumvented, then? Must be SOMETHING wrong with them if you and warped are to be believed.

The ONLY option you have in the US, if one is a citizen of our constitution, it to amend our constitution. You, and your anti constitutional position, have an improbable task. I, for one, will fight you, and your liberal brethren, will all I have to offer.
Thanks for help me understand where YOU stand sir.

If free speech were outlawed, I highly doubt you would shut the fuck up.

QuoteIf you see it taking 2 to 3 generations to make a difference, I say we start now rather than later.
Are you willing to be the first man in the door on the gun confiscation squad in your town?
How many other freedoms would you like to eliminate in the vain hope what somewhere 20 or 30 years later it "might" make a difference?
Sorry, but I'm going to have to require a little more proof of the efficacy of your proposal, before I turn my guns in. And the problem you have is that all the examples of gun control around the world and throughout history have all proven to be failures.

Why not? I thought all these gun owners were good decent law abiding citizens? If the supreme court has upheld the deicion, wouldn't a good decent law abiding person follow the law?
Or are many only decent law abiding citizens when it suits them?

So if the SC is the finial authority I expect no more comments from you when the SC upholds Bush's positions again
