Dolomite Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Fuck me (statement and not an offer) is a gift like this really necessary at age 10? http://www.news.com.au/technology/online/social/video-of-girl-crying-tears-of-joy-over-first-gun-sparks-fresh-anger/news-story/a9b83a38402063a4d7e02e381cbeb260 Two thoughts on this. 1. The girl is grateful and a grateful child is a respectful child of n my experience. 2. Who but an anti wouldn’t cry over a fucking Beretta shotgun? 1 Link to comment
datzenmike Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Is she happy because she earned it or just responding to her parents expectations? At 10 does she really want one or is it a taught behavior. If her parents were music teachers she would do the same over a piano. No one grows up wanting a gun, except I did from growing up with 50s westerns Rin Tin Tin, Lone Ranger, Red Ryder, Cisco Kid, Hoppalong Casity, Wanted Dead Or Alive, Bonanza......... Link to comment

Draker Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Neither,somebody already tried this trick some time ago. Good answer, and correct. Why is one the sworn enemy of Christ and the root of all evil.. and one is just a rifle? It's because one is perceived to LOOK scary.. and for that reason alone should be banned entirely. Does that make sense to anyone here? Couple that fact with the stats I posted earlier, and you can see that all the thrash about weapon bans is pure ignorance. Link to comment

paradime Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Can we find common ground to make changes in gun control. When there's gun fire inside a building, are police trained to blindly enter and engage the gunman, or does the deputy "failing" to be a hero not fit the gun rights narrative that "only if we could arm teachers"? We can all say mentally ill people shouldn't have guns, but when the FBI/ATF has confiscated people's gun in the past, how have gun rights activists reacted? Couple that fact with the stats I posted earlier, and you can see that all the thrash about weapon bans is pure ignorance. I'm sick of this pussy foot tap dancing around the subject. Guns are used by all kinds of people to kill other people. Some use stupid rhetoric to ban them, and others use stupid rhetoric to protect them. Most of us what to find regulations to keep us safer, but NRA folk will only accept regulation that protects 2A, so for god sake guys PLEASE tell us how you rationalize that an 18 year old should be able to buy a "sport" carbine. BTW *Sport* Verb: To amuse oneself or play in a lively, energetic way."children often participate in sports at school" 1 Link to comment

john510 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Yeah, and the anti-gunners have blown it way out of proportion already. If there is one thing I've learned from the gun debate, there is no middle ground. Bullshit,nothings been blown out of proportion.There is plenty of middle ground.The problem is NO compromise from either of the two sides that are so far apart.I don't think all guns should be banned at all.I also think the gun that seems to have a reputation and history of killing a lot of people quickly isn't a necessity for defending yourself from any threat the average person may encounter.It's a toy that some people like to play with.Nobody's life will change if they can't have that particular gun.Notice i didn't call it an "assault rifle" so i don't offend anybody that thinks it isn't.
