Quit using this incident to try to argue for gun control cause it ain't gonna happen. That idiot could have just as easily ploughed over hundreds of people in the streets using his vehicle. What are ya gonna do, ban automobiles? The right to own guns is there for a very important reason that maybe you can't conceive. It's not negotiable, no matter how many shooting sprees occur.

All anyone has to do is look at the "enormous disparity in gun possession and homicide rates between the U.S. and other countries" to see that you are wrong:

ah the moronic apples to oranges comparison that is destroyed by the fact that as ENGLAND banned guns its crime rate went UP and as Americans began carry concealed weapons and buying more and more guns crime went DOWN

you lose

Have you missed Turtledude repeatedly saying in this thread that he thinks that he should be able to have a 17 shot Glock that police have because he is thinks he has the same authorization to use one as do the the police?

I guess Heller was too complex for your understanding.

and yes my right of self defense is the same as a cop's

they are civilians too. (another lie I destroyed)
 
ever noticed that the people who most want us to be disarmed are the same ones who want more and more government. Liberals don't hate wealth and firearms, they just don't want us having either
 
I spend way too much time responding to this **** with logic, reason, facts, figures, linked sources, hard data and common sense.... and two days later I have to do it all over again for the next ignoranus. I need to quit doing this.


Maybe from now on my reponse to any gun-grabber post needs to be just one line with two words...


MOLON LABE!

As shown above, England has 1.6 intentional homicides committed with firearms per 1 million inhabitants vs the US at 32.5 intentional homicides committed with firearms per 1 million inhabitants.

We all lose.

freedom was lost in GB with their gun ban that only made things worse

if you factor out inner city black drug crime driven homicides, America is really pretty safe.

Obviously it is not, because unlike with civilians, police are authorized to use a 17 shot glock.

Good example of what its like comparing US gun death rates to those in third world countries.

Bud, almost everyone I know who owns a Glock owns some 17round magazines, and they are prefectly legal. Try again, but this time do a little research.

authorized shows how ignorant you are on this topic. IN almost every state we can own those guns-I have 6 of them

HE just spews idiocy on this topic. He has no clue and he has never come close to explaining how a city (its CHicago I was picking on) can make such idiotic two faced pronouncements

Proof from a non right wing/non racist's source?

What's your beef then?

You can post it on up or we will assume its just more of your bull**** per usual.

some politicians want to restrict the rights of civilians to ten round magazines like clinton did

Would you be satisfied with the FBI Uniform Crime Report?

FBI — Expanded Homicide Data Table 3

For homicides, race of the offender was as follows:

White 32%, Black 38%, Other 1.7%, Unknown 28%.

Blacks are 12% of the population and commit 38% of the murders. Whites are 72% and commit 32%.

I don't bring this up much because it comes across sounding racist to some people, but it is just the flat out truth: there's more than six times as much homicide committed by blacks, per capita for their ethnic demographic, when compared to whites, in America.

Now, the reasons don't necessarily have anything to do with skin color... inner city poverty, gangs and drug dealing being the primary driving causes, exacerbated by a subculture that doesn't place enough value on education and conventional means of success... but there's no arguing that the vastly higher rate for that ethnic group is a fact.


Damn it, there I go again with the logic and reason, sourced facts and ****.... which of course ends up being wasted like pearls before swine....

**** it.

Sounds most sensible, as it requires time to reload. Time that can be used to tackle his ass before he kills even more innocent people.


But you have changed our discussion once again. You were talking about this:

Is that no longer an issue for you?

like most gun haters your perspective is the criminal misuse of the gun which establishes how clueless you are in this topic. If someone has decided they are going to kill others, they are not going to be deterred or obey a magazine restriction

only honest people

so I dismiss your babbling on this as contrary to reality
