    But that's the issue isn't it, too many guns.
    No its not. Guns don't kill people. People kill people. Therefore instead of controlling guns, the laws should be amended to control people - and stop the wrong people getting their hands on guns.
    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        I'm hoping you are joking.

        Unfortunately people change. They can be perfectly normal then a life event changes them e.g. Divorce, Mental Illness, finding God, bereavement etc.

        So you give a normal person a gun then they become abnormal and go postal.

        Or normal people get stupid and manage to leave it out for the baby to play with.

        Someone has a brain fart and thinks 'I wonder what it would feel like hosing people down with a sub machine gun' if they can buy one in Wallmart its a bit too easy.

        Easy way is to give as few people a gun as possible then you lower the risk of accidents and nutters being armed with assault rifles.

          If anything, I feel more for those guys killed the cops.

          What a nobbish statement.
          Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

            As long as the baby shoots them not themselves.

              I see what you mean.

              Edited my post. I meant 'guys killed by those cops'

                Which is being blocked by conservative Republicans because the bill to DELAY (not even stop) people on the FBI watch list from buying assault rifles would affect members of the KKK and other RWNJs from getting the weapons on the day they want them. If Republicans allowed that law through, they would lose a lot of NRA/Gun manufacturer finance (and less importantly for them, they'd lose votes)

                  Yeah.


                  Still a vile statement.

                    So every countries populace should have access to guns, provided they are considered the "right" people.
