kallend 2,027 #26 December 21, 2014 lawrocket***The NRA spends decades promoting the "guns are good" culture and working to suppress all research on gun violenceGun control advocates have been winning for thirty years by trying to ensure that only cops and bad guys have them, and now the US has the highest rates of cop on civilian and civilian on cop shootings in the developed world. Go figure. Fixed to further expand the whole argumentative correlation thing. Whatever the argument, guns are not remotely restricted in the way you describe. There are more guns out there now than ever, and the NRA (mouthpiece of the gun manufacturers) has lobbied hard to make it so.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Anvilbrother 0 #30 December 21, 2014 How many cops have been killed this year by guns without people attached to them? You always fail to recognize these guns did not magically fly into the air and drive around town to find a cop to shoot. The human component is to blame for the death not the gun.

champu 1 #31 December 21, 2014 kallend***Guns are great! It's the people part that's fucked up! How many cops have been killed this year by people WITHOUT guns? Actually quite a few. Many are accidents, but not always. It always strikes me as strange when people imply or state that guns make it too easy to murder people, as though the difficulty of the physical/mechanical act of damaging another person's body until it stopped functioning was the biggest thing preventing murder.

I don't know about this particular year, but about 10% are killed by their own gun (criminal disarms cop and shoots cop with cop's gun). Those people didn't have a gun to start with. I couldn't find much for cops being killed without being shot (or in a car crash). One in El Paso TX a couple years ago was beaten and later died. Searching "police killed by unarmed" or "beaten to death" keeps coming up with cops killing unarmed people or cops being the ones doing the beating."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

Bolas 5 #33 December 21, 2014 Hopefully Ferguson has taught these other cities that when the protests devolve into calls for violence, they're just one step away from full scale riots and looting. Time to shut them down. This is what most don't understand about protests. They're a tool, not the solution. Make your voice heard, get the publicity, then use that to push the change you want. The problem is the people out there now are most likely ones that don't understand this so when they feel like nothing has changed yet, they get frustrated and either leave or stay and become angrier, especially those that are unemployed. The longer they stay, the angrier and less rational they become.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

tkhayes 348 #43 December 22, 2014 free speech IS somewhat responsible for pornography. the difference is that pornography does not result in the deaths of tens of thousands of people every year pornography is often regulated, and society is OK with that. Guns are generally not and are likely easier to get than ever before. Pornography never resulted is a mass death of children at a school. or multiple occurrences of same. The argument is valid, and so is your comparison. If you promote chemicals the chemical industry and chemical development and then you end up with chemicals in your drinking water, then yes, you actually ARE somewhat responsible for that. And you can still support the use of guns AND at the same expect better from the gun culture, gun regulations, gun lobbies to help protect something that you give a shit about.....like say.... people's lives maybe. anyway, back to the original debate - no one actually knows why this piece of shit decided to execute two cops. he's an asshole. but he was an asshole who apparently had little or no trouble getting a gun. guns don;t kill people. People WITH guns kill people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
