Gun Control Thread- Should we?

Mr. Kehoe was an animal abuser, all the signs were there.

Or people may have still panicked and forgotten they even had a gun.

Or even worse yet, more people could have been hurt or killed in the cross fire.

I'm not sure why anyone needs to buy assault weapons such as the AR-15 (which I believe was once federally banned), and I don't know anyone should be allowed to sell/buy ammunition over the Internet.

Indulge me on the last paragraph please.
Without Googling, tell me what an "assault rifle is" and why should it be banned?
And since I can go buy all the .223 I want at Wal Mart, why should I not get it off the internet?

Oversimplifying it, but, "Yes".

I don't think a majority of people should be permitted to drive, but they are. Cars aren't designed to kill but they do an admirable job of the task.

Please honestly consider if this was true at this moment. At 16, everyone gets a sidearm. Honestly just think about that right now and look around you, I get nervous. It would be a more fearful society.

So the answer is just let everyone have a gun? Ok

I don't get it either. Why bother with any laws at all then? Why are we wasting time with such foolishness?

Why are you picking 16? I'd have gone with 21.

Surely only those with a chronically poor aim would be fearful?

Fuq 'em.

I believe he choose 16 because the original point was about drivers.

Image fail.

To your second question first, I don't think it should be so easy at a WalMart either but there's no screening at all on the Internet. You say you're a 40 some year old man from Michigan, you could be a 12 year girl in Budapest for all I know.

To your first question, I know where you're going with this. As you already did in the other thread. But I don't know what the need is to have a rapid fire weapon like that.

I don't get it either. Why bother with any laws at all then? Why are we wasting time with such foolishness?

Let's just make everyone a mod while we're at it

Mayor Bloomberg to the rescue with more of his stupid antics. How did this clown get elected anyway?


Mayor Bloomberg Says Cops Should Go On Strike Until Americans Give Up Their Guns - Hit & Run : Reason.com (http://reason.com/blog/2012/07/24/mayor-bloomberg-says-cops-should-go-on-s)


New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg told CNN's Piers Morgan last night that he doesn't "understand why police officers across this country don’t stand up collectively and say we’re going to go on strike, we’re not going to protect you unless you, the public, through your legislature, do what’s required to keep us safe."
