Guns don't kill people.
5 year olds kill people. |
If don't try to find the root of the problems things are just gonna escalate. I don't know why there aren't any intellectuals sitting and discussing these issues on open TV. I guess b/c ratings are gonna go down. People would rather watch Ricky Lake show.
I haven't had a TV for the past 15 years. |
The 2nd Amendment:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." ".well regulated.." please don't misinterpret this very clear provision. A "my first rifle", loaded and leaning against a wall while no parents are home? Not even fucking close, bro's. |

All these talks about amendments remind of what Lincoln once said. "DO NOT TOUCH THE CONSTITUTION". We'll I think that's wrong. The constitution must be amended continuously as we evolve to reflect the new times. Don't put too much emphasis on amendments as on reason.

If you take a look at the federalist papers, and read the majority opinion in "Heller Vrs. Washington DC" you will see the references. :2 cents: . |

Every year just over 30,000 people die in the US from gunshot wounds. Every two years more US citizens are killed by gunshot wounds than were lost in the entire Vietnam war.
Lets look at this another way. With a population of 310 million and an annual death rate of 8.3/1000 , we can calculate that 2,573,000 people die in the US each year. Of which 30,000 die of Gun Shot - so if you live in the US you have a 1.166% chance that you will die of Gun Shot wound. The rate of gunshot deaths is about 8 times that of economically comparable nations. bottomline: USA sucks balls badly and yet calls for even MORE arms ... poor brain-washed dummies obey, consume and follow ... sheesh |

Lets pretend it means and even says "well trained" though. The first order of business when it comes to training is being able to tell who has passed the training. FAIL. There is no standard test to buy a fire arm. No shooting test, no eye test.. is there any training whatsoever? Then it's fail. There is no regulation until we impose regulations. Another word for that is government. The sale of firearms needs to be governed. Nothing could be more clear. |

Some rand can kill you with you with a shovel or a bat or what ever, the only thing a gun does is that it makes people equal. A big 200 pound criminal isnt stronger then a 60 year old guy in the usa, because in usa the 60 year old guy have a shotgun to defend himself, but in Holland a 60 year old guy is prey to a 200 pound criminal, because in holland only the criminals have guns, the left wing goverment have made sure that legal people cant defend themselves. and have people like you screaming "power to the people" and what they really mean is power to the goverment, and less power to the people |

Hunting is less common, where did you hear that? Yes the numbers are going down, but that can be tied to the economy. It costs a lot to go hunting. read this http://www.nwtf.org/images/Youth_Hunting_Report.pdf |

Even though you and I are on opposite sides of the gun issue, I think many of your personal views on the topic are pretty accurate. I may not always agree with you but the fact that you're at least thinking logically is something I've always respected about you. The problem is that people debate one extreme or another. The answer for the U.S. is not more guns but it is also not a ban on guns. Gun bans have never worked in this country and all that will do is start bigger problems. Unfortunately, the U.S. has created a problem that has no easy and efective solution. My personal feelings are that the agendas of both sides are fucked up. Common ground could be found if BOTH sides would quick acting like ignorant jackasses and address the actual problems. That would take years of work and require more regulations on the special interest groups and I don't ever see that happening because our Government is so corrupt. :disgust |

Yes it does and that's the main reason I really don't get into the gun debates. Unless you can change the corrupt politicians and get the NRA to pull their head out of their own ass, no significant changed will be made. They may pass more laws but the atrocities being committed with guns will still continue to happen. Personally, I'm more interested in safety and education than I am in debates. Debating will change nothing but education has proven to change almost every problem mankind has ever encountered. Ignorance = stupidity = danger. |

I know fuck all about you. This is the first post of yours I've ever read. Reading the above, I see an uneducated person. All I have to base this on is your inability to spell even the most common words. When dumb fucks speak out in behalf of pro gun groups, it doesn't do our cause any good. Just my humble opinion. |

Its the same with guns. If there is a debate about how to stop so many people from "winging it" with the end result of banning guns then I am for it. The whole things is a bit complex. Its takes more than amendments to change attitudes. I wrote earlier about what I would do as I politician. That would be a good start. |
