Saying "criminals will find a way" is an argument against any law in existence. There's significantly less Aussies than Americans but they've had an assault weapons ban for more than 20 years and gun death has nearly been eliminated. You really think the bogans know more about this issue than we do? --- End quote --- there's like 800,000 guns in Australia after the buyback which collected a mere 1,100,000 guns. Imagine this ratio in America, there'd still be over a hundred million guns. By the way, rape went up after the ban. I guess that's something we guys don't have to worry about though huh |

It's not an op-ed. --- End quote --- If a journalist doesn't know what they are talking about with a subject then they shouldn't be advocating legislative action on that subject you tard. --- Quote from: LeisureSuit912 on February 20, 2018, 06:59:16 PM ---- Cars are made for driving. Guns are made for killing. --- End quote --- And you have just confirmed that you have never fired a gun in your life. You know nothing about them and have no clue what you are talking about. You are a walking vagina. --- Quote from: LeisureSuit912 on February 20, 2018, 06:59:16 PM ---There's a difference in purpose for both. And no, it's not as easy to drive a car through a brick wall into a school like a cartoon than to bring an assault weapon. --- End quote --- Guns are made for many purposes. Hunting, target practice, Russian Roulette, what about first person shooters? They are just made for killing digital people, we should ban them, they are poisoning our youth after all. --- Quote from: LeisureSuit912 on February 20, 2018, 06:59:16 PM ---AND chlorine bombs are illegal. --- End quote --- L M F A O You realize you can make a chlorine bomb right? Are you handicapped? --- Quote from: LeisureSuit912 on February 20, 2018, 06:59:16 PM ---- Yes, you could enforce an assault weapons ban nationwide.

'criminals will find a way' is definitely the loving case considering that a large of amount of mass shootings are already with illegal firearms AND you are dealing with a country that has more guns then people. |

--- Quote from: Khaz on February 20, 2018, 07:08:11 PM ---any rational person can agree that outright banning guns is stupid and not practical. using them for home defense/hunting/sport is reasonable, but clearly there's a problem when the same stuff keeps happening with the same type of gun. so far both sides are just at a constant stalemate of "no your solution isn't going to work so forget off with that bullstuff" without actually compromising and coming up with a solution which in turn just allows more and more of these shootings to happen. either way any possible solutions that i can even think of are going to involve guns and the people using them. i tried to make this as unbiased as possible as im still kinda shaken up from what happened here in vegas. something needs to be done but nothing is being done. i dont see a reason why a normal citizen needs to be walking around with an assault weapon. perhaps make them only obtainable/accessible when hunting/recreation but even then that feels too limited but at the same time I dont think any of us want to hear about 10 other mass shootings in the next month or two. its almost as if the solution to this is going to have to go through a process of trial and error --- End quote --- I would think banning assault weapons would be a compromise position. A blanket ban on guns would be stupid and I disagree with the leftists who think that if we got rid of every gun we'd solve all the problems, but it's dumb not to do anything either. When people say "oh but wouldn't the crazies just find another way to kill people", they forget that America has this inane obsession with gun culture unlike so many other countries. That doesn't exists for things like knives and cars, and it's why Hardcore Gamers turn to guns because of how ingrained they are into our culture. --- Quote from: beachbum111111 on February 20, 2018, 07:13:00 PM ---Yes compare a country with the 10th of the population with far less racial tension between it's ethnic groups.

Go back to Canada where they have far more firearm restrictions than they do in the US. |

Do you even listen to the stuff that spews out of your mouth? |

the smart move to fixing shootings is obviously to do literally nothing about it ever ! |
