Meanwhile the next mass shooting is just around the corner, just wait and see.

they were suspected of having illegal weapons, that was never proven. they had plenty of weapons and there was nothing illegal about that.

the truth of waco was covered up, the documentary sheds light on the facts.

Thanx, I pointed this out to Richard once before, but I guess he didn't read it.

As far as having a lot of cops around you, I live in LA, they just BBQ'd one in the woods

Nobody is talking about banning guns, just stricter gun control and perhaps outlawying semi auto rifles.

here in the intelligent part of the country, we understand that outlawing something = banning something.

Semi-autos have been legal to possess since they were first invented. You're probably not bright enough to ask yourself the question of "why ban them now when gun violence is at an all time low?"

Every cop I know LIVES for the possibility of confrontation. And they will beat your ass to the ground over nothing.

It's just human nature. The courts have given the cops unlimited power on the scene (yeah, you can "win" in court...but you still got your ass beaten and sometimes KILLED on the scene), and that kind of power just naturally goes to your head.

Hell, I'd like to say that I would be a "good" cop and never do that. But I'd probably put that uniform on, realize I could get away with damn near anything...and then be just like the rest of them.

exactly right.
If you've ever listened to cops talk about "civilians" for any length of time you realize most are someone you put your trust in.

In most cases people want guns because they are fun. That part isn't always understood because we all like different things. Some people like to smack a little white ball around for hours trying to get it in a hole while others think it's stupid and a waste of time.

Do we need semi-automatic weapons? No more than we need a fire extinguisher. You don't really "need" it but you want it in case you need it.

This country is in serious dept and if and when things go to shit, guns and bullets will quickly turn into a very important "need" to protect your other vital needs like food, water, medicine, shelter.

My officer friends - all three or four of them - tell me the same thing... Every day they get yelled at, screamed at, kicked, punched, slapped, and bit. In the mean time, they are on the look out for much worse - someone pulling a knife or a gun. Yes, they are waiting for a confrontation.

Not much of an issue for me. I rarely come into contact with cops. Common sense tells you no sudden movements. If you are in your car, keep your hands in sight at all times. Easy. I got pulled over when a model was driving once, and she did everything wrong - she didn't even shut off her car. Well, she did show off her cleavage (nothing to the cleavage you are used to Robbie) but it seems it was "just enough" and didn't get her a ticket.

Don't. Fucking. Care.

When the ATF or FBI or any government agency shows up with a fucking warrant you don't fucking shoot and kill four officers. At that point the original warrant is pointless. You shoot and kill four people the cops are coming in NO MATTER WHAT.

it's too bad you choose to continue making up your own story of what happened there but i did expect that. even so, figured I'd give ya a chance to educate yourself on the actual event as you do like to claim you are knowledgeable about american history.

He spends his day bitching about shit he learns on GFY because we all know if you want a good idea of America come to GFY to get your opinions lol, my front door is wide open and I have no guns in the house. I am not afraid of some retard walking in with a gun or as he would say redneck gun nutters LOL, who gives a fuck about small areas of people here and there. I am not there so it does not bother me. Yeah I am jealous because he can get dog shit off his shoes faster then we can and use them for fire wood at the same time. Big deal

I honestly don't remember the exact details of what happened back then, and because on GFY people call you out on things... I looked it up before posting.

Quote:

The Waco siege began on February 28, 1993, and ended violently 50 days later on April 19. The siege began when the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), accompanied by several members of the media, attempted to execute a search warrant at Mount Carmel Center ranch, a property of the religious group Branch Davidians located in the community of Elk, Texas, nine miles (14 kilometers) east-northeast of Waco.

On February 28, shortly after the attempt to serve the warrant, an intense gun battle erupted, lasting nearly two hours. In this armed exchange, four agents and six Branch Davidians were killed. Upon the ATF's failure to execute the search warrant, a siege was initiated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The siege ended 50 days later when a fire destroyed the compound after a second assault was launched. Seventy-six men, women and children, including the sect leader, David Koresh, died in the fire. The Waco siege also has been described as the "Waco massacre."
So it pretty much happened the way I thought it did. On top of that, the fucking ATF brought the press along with them!

In short, ATF attempts to serve a warrant and four officers are shot dead. WTF planet do you live on where that is acceptable? If ten officers knock on my door and have a warrant for illegal firearms or a meth lab or whatever, I open up the door and let them in. You don't start shooting people dead...

That, plus many other roads around it were destroyed. That meant a run on grocery stores and basic necessities became scarce fast. That coupled with the fact that people were dying under rubble and people were upset more could not be done faster to save or find them meant agitation set in very quickly.

That meant the threat of violence set in very quickly. Society was upended and you would be amazed how fast even a town of mellow affluent old hippies and young surfers and university students becomes so feral. Ready to fight. Ready to rape. Ready to kill. Humanity can be more beastly than any beast. Think of what went down during Katrina, much of which is still not published.

Then I was living in downtown LA when the LA riots hit. At least 50 People were circling our building as a pack behind a slow moving van yelling, "we know you're in there! We're coming to get you!". Later we drove, heavily armed to the closest police station, forget using 911, and we asked the riot geared-up cop what to do. He said very matter of factly, "Don't just start shooting people, but if someone crosses your threshold... unload your clip." At that point I knew, once again, society had completely upended in a matter of hours.

Traffic signals may have been working, but no one was paying attention to them if you understand my drift, and that makes the road a very dangerous place. Guns are like cars, the faster they go, the more rounds they shoot, yes, the more dangerous they are, but not necessarily in the hands of someone safe and respectful of the laws of the road.

As Sun Tzu once said, "In times of peace, the gentleman will carry the sword at his side".

i bow to thy wisdom (once again)



but please stop comparing cars to guns.. (not you Far-L)
guns are made specifically to cause hurt, cars are designed to make transport.
yes you can open a beer with a gun, but you cant shot someone with a bottle opener

settle down.

you can either read 5 sentences about the details surrounding the event and think you know wtf you are talking about or you can watch a 2.5 hour documentary on the matter and learn something about what happened there.

either way.

couple facts about serving that warrant. it took 76 agents and 80 vehicles stetching 1 mile to serve that warrant. and that's after the sheriff had seized the firearms at the compound and deemed them all to be legal firearms and returning them.

This correlation is so weak and it is not common sense. People die from guns, motorcycles, cars, booze, green onions (e-coli), cans of tomato soup (botulism), lightning etc etc etc.

Guns are different because of one simple fact. The gun used in the CO theater shooting was used to spec. It was not designed for fun, it was designed to harm and kill people without the need to stop and reload period. It was used as that manufacturer intended to perfection. That makes it stand out.

dgraves 02-13-2013 03:48 PM

Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms is a joke. It should be an isle at Walmart, not a branch of Fed Gov.

It's funny how the Feds are only concerned about the least deadly of the three. The Feds aren't concerned about us killing each other, we just have to do it in a slow, controlled manner.

I can see the US dividing into separate countries like Europe.

I know what you are saying...but it's not true. People shoot those exact kind of guns every day for fun.

Hell, you can go to the gun range here in Vegas and shoot a real "machine gun" and people do that for FUN.

I agree that some guns are better at shooting than others (more shots without reloading, etc.). But to say they aren't used for fun is just ignorant.

Thousands of people at thousands of gun ranges are shooting them right now as I type this for FUN.

That guy in Colorado is an aberration, not the "norm".

By the way, I have never been to a gun range. It sounds kinda fun. But if I wanted to shoot my shotgun for the hell of it, I'm damn sure not gonna pay some gun range for the privilege. lol

I'd just drive out in the desert and do it. Or, when I'm down in Fla. I'll just go out in my dad's pasture land and do it.
I don't...because my idea of "fun" is drinking and whoring. :1orglaugh

I was in California for Loma Prieta too. We went without power for four days. It's amazing how quickly everything in your fridge goes bad with no power. We had no phones either of course. No power also means no restaurants and no stores - we couldn't even leave the area because there was no place to get gas... You could only go as far as your gas tank allowed.

I lived in an apartment back then. We all had a big BBQ and cooked up what little meat we had. The next few days it was all canned goods.

But no one walked around threatening people. I find it hard to believe it was any different in freaking Santa Cruz.

What is alcohol designed to do? What is a greater harm to society - alcohol or guns? Is it easier to get a gun or get alcohol in this country? Again, not one person has made a solid argument as to why guns should be banned, and not alcohol.

I like to shoot and talk about guns. It is a hobby. It is fun. On a lazy Sunday, what is more likely to hurt someone, me going to the gun range and shooting for a few hours, or me sitting at home and downing vodka shots for a few hours.

People who want to ban guns simply want to impose their definition of "fun" on other people, no more, no less. They don't want to address harms that impact their fun, but they have no problem regulating what other people consider enjoyable.

And btw, I'm a black, Obama voting Dem living in Seattle. Not exactly a tin foil hat wearing redneck living in West Virgina waiting for the feds to come get me. I can't let white rednecks have all the fun (and as said by others, I'm going to be prepared for the zombie invasion).

PornDiscounts-V 02-13-2013 04:17 PM

Have you ever tried shooting three times at a duck with pump action? Sure it can be done. But semi-auto is so much easier.

Why do people think I don't need a semi-auto gun? Why do people want to take away my freedom of choice?

Why do you think you can pay 1 cop to police 1,000 citizens and everything is going to be hunky dory?

Two hand guns were used in VT. Killed and wounded more.

I guess you didn't know about the undercover agent the ATF had in there, I mean if no illegal weapons were found, why did they get an arrest warrant?

The whole thing was a cluster fuck, there were all sorts of laws the ATF broke in order to murder all those kids

Black All Through 02-13-2013 04:38 PM

The sound of a weapon discharging repetitive amounts of rounds in a matter of just a few seconds scares the popo out of anyone. It's also handy if you're a crappy shot, so if the first wont hit the target, maybe the other 14 will.

it was a planned raid + publicity stunt gone horribly wrong.

a quote from one of the jurors from the jury trial that acquitted the branch davidians on the murder and conspiracy to murder charges:

One juror stated to the San Antonio Express-News, "When we heard all that testimony, there was no way we could find them guilty of murder." He added that "We felt provocation was pretty evident. When the firestorm started, everybody was trying to cover their behinds...I thought two agents in plain clothes should have gone in there and knocked on the door (to issue warrants)".

D Ghost 02-13-2013 04:49 PM

Why do you NEED to worry about other people and how they conduct their lives. Try worrying about yourself.

They are fun to shoot, so are fully automatics. If you aren't into it, GFY. Some people probably aren't into some of the shit you are either, but they aren't asking you WHY you need it.

Cigarettes kill more people per year than firearms, why do we NEED cigarettes.

I read this too on Wikipedia and I thought it was odd at first. Normally you would only need a few agents to serve a warrant. Maybe a few more if they were serving a warrant on a house that was "defended" or reinforced in some way.

But this wasn't a house, it was a compound with nearly two hundred people in it - 172 to be exact. Clearly you don't search a compound that houses 170 people in it with four agents.

The local sheriff seized the firearms? And deemed them all legal? That's great. Fucking awesome. The reality is, no matter what, the ATF showed up with a warrant, legally allowing them to search the entire property. It doesn't matter if the sheriff was there the day before, it doesn't matter if they had no illegal weapons, all that matters is that they had a warrant, they were denied access, and started a gun battle. A simple matter of a search warrant turned into murder.

sarettah 02-13-2013 05:08 PM

Ok, a good reason to own a semi-auto, other than the original founders words.

I think one of the best reasons is still the same as it was in 1903 when the U.S. government created the Civilian Marksmanship Program.

Quote:

The Office of the Director of Civilian Marksmanship (DCM) was created by the U.S. Congress as part of the 1903 War Department Appropriations Act. The original purpose was to provide civilians an opportunity to learn and practice marksmanship skills so they would be skilled marksmen if later called on to serve in the U.S. military.
If we end up in a situation, such as WWII, where we have to gear up quickly, it is important to have people familiar with weapons.

The CMP was administered by the Army for years and years. It was later privatized but still exists. They emphasize youth training in weapons and their weapons of choice are the very popular M1 carbine and the M1 Garand. Both semi-autos with the M1 having a removable clip and there are 30 round clips available all over the place. If you are a member of a CMP sanctioned organization (gun club) then you have access to purchase military surplus M1s at a lower price than the normal private marketplace.

So, if my government thinks it is a good idea for me to have a semi-automatic rifle and know how to use it, who am I to argue.

just my :2 cents:

Richard you are very consistent in your belief that you experience a reality every else experiences and if they don't, they are a 'nut' or you apply some other dehumanizing label to them... reality check: not everybody has your life and not everybody wants what you want, AND not everybody BUT you is wrong. :2 cents:
