Yea, sure. You just keep telling yourself that.
Its the truth.

Again, as I said before, could you please show a little respect to the deceased? Now is not the time to make this a political issue.
that was evasive and dishonest we heard that there was no chance of guns being banned in
California
New Jersey
New York
Connecticut
Hawaii
Maryland
Illinois
DC
and yet all of those places have banned significant numbers of guns for stupid and silly reasons
and I heard the same crap in England prior to Dunblane. and one nut case caused a collective garment voiding tsunami to the point that british olympic shooters cannot even practice in England.
Sure...you can blame it on the guns (as long as you ignore the stabbings and beatings part). Or...you can address...you know...the problems...
Nah...that would mean you might have to actually get in and deal with those that are committing the vast majority of violent acts. Better you just continue to spew mindless rhetoric.
And whom pray-tell are the ones committing the vast majority of the violent acts...hmmmmmmm?
By anyone who matters, very few. We can all find the outliners, but do you really want to be judge by those on your side at the extreme? There is virtually no chance of guns being banned in America. No chance at all.
I have no trouble punishing careless parents. This should be part if the discussion. I'm just not sure why some don't make these arguments.

They dont want to. They feel the parents are suffering enough. But it has not sunk into some parents and minors are still getting their hands on guns and doing negligent and criminal acts.
The Reno P.D. are nothing more than glorified tax-collectors. The longer I live here the less I think Reno 911 as a parody. And as tragic as this incident was, they most likely used it as an opportunity to stand around and do nothing, knowing full well that the situation was resolved before a single officer arrived.Holy carp! That's a bit excessive.
that is BSNo, they really haven't. They have minor restrictions, but guns are still quite prevalent.
And we're not England.
:lamo:lamo:lamo
No, thanks to American mythology.
Its the truth.
Because while on the books is hardly ever enforced.
that is BS
when you cannot have more than a 7 round magazine that is hardly minor
if you cannot own a semi auto rifle with a detachable magazine that is hardly minor
and you dishonestly pretend that what happened in England is not relevant here because it kills your argument
gun haters in england claimed that registration would not lead to confiscation
No, because people are desperate and desperate people do desperate things and take their changes. Also, they never think THEY will get caught.
Oh, I don't buy that. Parents start getting locked up for leaving loaded guns around for their 15/16-year-olds to shoot up schools? I think we'll see a definite run on gun safes.
"They" who? Certainly we can talk about this here.
and you get upset when people state your posts are anti gun:mrgreen:
but restricting the rights of honest people will stop those who have already lost that right from abusing a right they don't have?
Pretty minor? Really? Short of some smaller framed semi autos and older weapons like 1911s, most modern semi auto hand guns come with a minimum capacity of 10 rounds.No, those are all pretty minor.
And no, we're not England. That's just a fact. We're not Australia either, but as I understand it, restrictions have worked there. Like I said, though, we're not either of those countries.
What did I "start". By calling for the partisanship to begin. Am I wrong, just read the thread. The libs jumped on that bait instantly.
Truth how so. You ever heard of Gov Cuomo, vp Biden, President Obama, Sen Feinstien? They are ready and willing to take whatever guns they can from us. NOW.
No, those are all pretty minor.
