You're going to punish people you don't agree with by not listening to their responses to info you left on a message board?

lolololololol

How were people supposed to know that you have politely exited and your posts are now out of bounds... especially given that you have now not so politely returned?
 
No short version for the lazies?
 
I wonder, for those that are caught alive in mass shootings, if they were tortured in the most inhuman and painful way possible that's long and drawn out and broadcast on a live, public, live stream, if it would help convince some ****s not to **** up innocent lives. Apparently, the system and media coverage of mass shootings are not working.

I still think there should be more gun control laws too. Laws that prevent the sell of ARs and bump stocks; laws for owning a gun you have to be over 21, laws for parents who own guns and have kids under 21 in the household and how the guns must be locked up and meet a certain criteria, and laws that do annual background checks on owners and their mental state and medications. Yeah, doesn't sound like freedom, but because we have so many ****s who destroy so many lives, I do not care. I'd rather lose some of my rights, as a gun owner, than see people lose their lives.

The FBI, authorities and school officials royally ****ed up in the latest shooting. I feel like there should be stricker laws for those that **** up directly and leads to innocent lives being taken too.

We could resolve gun violence in one month if we enacted Australia like reforms today.

One month? Lol, no chance. Americans aren't handing in their guns. Something like that would take years and would be a pretty big mess. Australians handed in between 600,000 and 700,000 guns. That's a private collection in Texas. Compared to the U.S. they estimate about 40 million guns would need to be collected to have a similar impact.

Nothing like that is ever happening in the U.S. However, our government could still take measures to keep maniacs from pulling off mass shooting sprees by limiting the types of weapons available and specifically high-capacity magazines. We're not going to completely stop shootings, but we could make it much more difficult to pull off mass shootings.

There is just way too much money in gun sales, and the NRA has too many politicians in their pocket. Mostly Republican scum bags, but you can't place all the blame on them when Obama really did nothing to address the problem either.
 
To do what Australia did we'd have to change the 2nd amendment. I think realistically, we all know that isn't going to happen.

So think of different things.

This.

Australia had a population of under 20 million when they did their gun bans. The US has a population of 320 million. It's not even comparable and having the same thoughts and expectations is unreasonable too.

Well, it is called an amendment, to be fair. I think it certainly could and will happen when today's youth starts voting. Do you read Reddit by chance?

No I don't read Reddit.

I think the chances of us ever having to hand over our guns are so incredibly slim that it's not worth discussing.
