Wish someone would ban your posts

I think your numbers are a little bit off there....

In 2006 over 3k children were killed by firearms:

Shocking infos you have there sir. I am assuming that under the firearm portion the children were inside the drum when shot and not the drum using the firearm. Quite shocking so many ways to die by 55 Gallon Oil Drums... jeep up the great research:thumbsup:thumbsup

Ban fire!

55 gallon oil drums?

Are we now going to ban everything?

that is probably from one city

Another great and intelligent post from someone crying about anti gun laws.

You can't put 55 gallons of anything in an AR 15, so the drum wins.

im getting out of here

totally fucking retarded.

the only purpose of a gun is to threaten/kill.

Start a race
Launch a distress flare
Open a locked door

Like two dozen people have died from Muslim extremism since 9/11 but we spend $8 billion a year on TSA.

Ban gravity!

55 oil drums are those metal or plastic barrels you see that hold oil or chemicals. They are every where. They are left empty and they fill up with water. Kids go play by them and fall in head first and drown.

More kids die that way than by guns. More kids drown in pools and even the small kiddie pools. Where is the outcry to ban them.

The outcry to ban guns is a knee jerk emotional reaction.

You left out defend/protect

the way reason it works for the protect/ defend is because its a tool for killing.
