quote: ORIGINAL: Moonhead FR: Isn't it a bit disingenuous to suggest that a local ban (not even state level) not working proves that a Federal ban wouldn't work? The Chicago case is admittedly terrible, but it isn't proof that a nationwide gun ban would be equally as ineffective. It sure doesn't prove it would be.

Being a nice polite English criminal he wouldn't actually hurt someone with a gun because guns are bad.

Nothing short of trying it and it failing would prove that it's ineffective. When did you people do that?

Destroy peoples rights, steal their property and if it doesn't work just "my bad" and everything is ok? They did exactly that in several countries - the UK and Auz to name just two. The 'right' was given to you by the lawmakers. Whatever rights were given can just as easily be taken away. It just needs enough people in power to revoke it. Job done. And don't start spouting the bit about it not being repealable - that's just an oxymoron. Anything that declares itself to be unchanging is laughable. And the stats prove that country-wide gun controls work. Anything less, is again, laughable.

Actually, no. that in a country where buying an unregistered gun is expensive and difficoult criminals have harder times.

K. not policed, it was just say no. Remember? St. Wrinklemeat? It was actually "just say no" for the people who might use drugs. St. Wrinklemeat sent the DEA and other assets to drug producing south american countries to eliminate the drug lords. And K you are right, banning illegal drugs in the US has worked. It is not like you cant go down to some street corner and buy a gram of crack, coke, heroin, or anything else. I know people that actually spend 15 minutes looking for the stuff because it is so hard to find. But our war on drugs has led to new technologies, narco submarines, semi submersibles, all that neat stuff that is so useful in the private sector.

And don't start spouting the bit about it not being repealable - that's just an oxymoron. Anything that declares itself to be unchanging is laughable. It isn't unchangeable. 38 states would have to agree to the change, not going to happen.

BamaD -> RE: Now tell me again.... (9/20/2013 2:53:30 PM)
And the stats prove that country-wide gun controls work. Anything less, is again, laughable. Not nearly as laughable as your post. BTW is laughable British for I disagree, that seems to be the way Brits use it.

quote: ORIGINAL: BamaD Rights are recognized, privileges are given. I think this statement, right here, is the real bone of contention. For the most part, the right understands this while (also for the most part) the left seems to think that rights are granted by government. It's interesting to note that the second amendment resides in what's referred to as the bill of *rights* . The left would have us believe that any freedom we enjoy is just because of government largesse. In some cases, they believe that these rights are just there because the government hasn't managed to take them away, yet. I was always taught that the job of government was to *protect* our rights; not take them away. I really do think it's a major fault in public education that's been pushing this eroneous idea that rights are granted to us by government. It speaks to another thread where our rights are "distilled down" to a horrible misconception. I pity them.

Ms Blairs friends didnt have guns, yet the robbers still fled, so the crime was indeed stopped without more guns on the street.

When I say fucking laughable, thats contempt, pure and simple. Hope that helps.

quote: ORIGINAL: BamaD quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 Thank you Eulero. JLF, gun homicides per 100,000 in the US are 2.97 % In the UK its only 0.7 % Do you want me to do the maths ? Again the U S murder rate with clubs exceeds the total Japanese murder rate. This is the sort of laughable post I expect in reply to my actually pointing out stats. You can keep your own opinion but I insist on the facts.
