If Pelosi wants gun control

The exercise of 2nd amendment rights protects all the others.
Without the 2nd amendment rights, all the others would soon fall.

Or more likely who be shot dead by one of her own children.

So you think the Speaker of the House faces exactly the same threat as you or I do ?


How about Trump...is the same true of him ?

I face more threats than she does. I find myself in places she never will.

She'll never drop a deuce at a roadside rest area, in the middle of the night. You think that scumbag waiting to mug someone is going to care if I'm not the speaker of the house? Hell no he ain't. That mother****er might try to jump me, anyway.
 
Rich2018 said:
Why ?


How do you suppose people without guns - which BTW is the majority of Americans - manage ?





Yes and yes, because they're the best thing to help me in the event of a fire or accident.






If it's that serious, I'll call 911

So the cops can come put a toe tag on your dead ass? :lamo

When seconds count, the cops are minutes away.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi needs a security detail...you know for her security.

You don't need your guns.

Second amendment says his gun rights are not infringed, so that makes you wrong.

I was thinking of a serious accident (the type that needs a first aid kit). So yes I would call 9/11 and so would you.

Wrong ?

Me thinks you can't distinguish between "right" and "need".

Maybe you need to go back and re-read.


Or maybe better still just go back.

Of course you do, it's why you lock your front door when you leave the house and when you go to bed.


However you make a false assertion that you need guns to be safe.

No, you made the false assertion when you said he doesn't need his guns.

Who are you to say what he needs?
You're traveling the slippery slope here.

Most Americans manage just fine without guns.


QED: you are that thing when you're not right.

If Pelosi wants gun control, have her take all the guns away from criminals. When she accomplishes that, there will be few guns deaths in the country. Feel free to start any time Nancy.

I imagine declaring a "national emergency" will take care of many future problems.
 
Rich2018 said:
How does anyone know that ?


That, if you don't know it, is the point.


The point is that you can buy the ability to kill hundreds in an afternoon.


You can be a mass shooter any time you wish...and on 345 occasions in 2017, people (mostly las abiding up to that point and with legally held guns) chose to do exactly that.
Click to expand...

It's irrelevant, because we're all innocent, until proven guilty.

Hell, I can go to gas station, buy some gasoline, a cigarette lighter and a roll of paper towels and kill hundreds.

I could build an explosive device. I can get the mercury swith and the detonator from Amazon and not pay shipping.

The worst mass murder in United States history was done by arson, not a gun.

Happy Land fire - Wikipedia

If someone wanted to inflict mass casualties, there are morr efficient ways than a gun.

Beverly Hills Supper Club fire - Wikipedia

Cocoanut Grove fire - Wikipedia

Using guns is a fad. Let's pray these crazy ********ers don't figure out that there are easier ways to inflict a lot more casualties.

You don't think that the Speaker of the House, the second in line to the presidency isn't worth protecting ?

Strange.


What next, disband the secret service, have the president scrap AF and fly Delta on economy ?

You're all over the place in this thread.
Pick a position and stick to it.
Nobody said Pelosi's life is not worth protecting. What they are saying is that her life deserves no more protection than theirs.

Stephen Paddock exercised his right to bear arms.

How did that protect the people at that Vegas concert ?
Click to expand...

Stephen Paddock did not exercise this 2nd amendment rights. He committed a crime with his firearms.
No where in the 2nd amendment does it state that crimes using firearms are permitted.

The two things are very much different.

Who are you to say what Americans need or what rights they shouldn't have?
You know nothing about the Constitution, do you? This is 8th grade stuff...
People are born with rights, the right to own property. The government is there to protect those rights not tell them what rights or needs they should have.

It's takes 90 seconds for someone with an arterial laceration to die.

Pneumothorax: 5 minutes

Tension pneumothorax: 3 minutes

Suffocation: 7 minutes

You might want to rethink your plan.

I would call 911, then try to keep the victim alive until EMS arrived, or get things under control, then call 911.
