Just make bullets cost 400K a pop. Problem solved.

 

 

 

 

Sure that way only the super rich could afford the right to defend themselves. Great idea. Peasants have no business enjoying all their natural born rights that thousands of men have fought and died for, right? Let's put a tax on free speech, too. Speech can be used to inspire people to do bad things so let's tax free speech so it costs $400 for a one paragraph permit for all media, print, and public speeches. That would cut down on the crazies out there inspiring other crazies to do goodness knows what, right?

no. there would be mass shootings every day. just we would never hear about it and never realise that current gun laws might actually be a problem until we see our kids get shot up at school with our very own eyes. .

Couple of children get shot and killed-ban guns.

 

Couple children get killed in DUI accidents-Increased media attention on drunk driving.

 

Thousands of children born into poverty to either become gang affiliated, in prison, or dead-we're just gonna ignore them.

 

Anyone else see not only the irony but the dramatic overeaction because of this?

No. Gun laws are fine. You wanna stop **** like this? Increase screening and help for individuals with mental health problems.

yeah gun laws are just fine. especially when crazy bob can walk out of the local psyche ward, walk down a block and go into jimbo's guns, arm himself into the teeth without them ever even doing a background check or nothing, and then walk into pretty much any school, theater, shopping mall, or any public place where nobody would see it coming, and just start unloading on random innocent people?

 

how many more random shootings is it going to take before you clowns stop believing its not the shooter thats 100% the problem, but perhaps the relaxed gun laws where everybody and their dog has access to one might have something to do with it too? like **** if your a criminal and cant get access, just find a shady gun store. most of em need money and dont care to do the background checks anyways. if that doesnt work, ask your neighboor. he's got tonnes. or your family...or your baby sister. anybody in america can have easy access to firearms because of how dumb the laws are.

 

keep denying that gun laws and regulation is part of the problem until its your own kid that gets shot dead. then maybe youll start to think outside of the box and start to see the big picture

Honestly, you're right...but at the same time, wouldn't it be better to save a few kids and do 10% good than to do no good?

if america put in better gun laws and restrictions it would cause a redneck outrage. all those people from the dirty south will start another civil war, this time because they cant just get drunk outside on their lawn in the middle of february while having a barbeque and shooting beer cans.

Keep rambling like you know what you are talking about. Everyone has a background check done when buying weapons from a licensed dealers. Also gun shops have to show how much inventory is coming into and out of a shop. Those numbers need to match the amount of background checks that they do. If there is a discrepancy in their inventory then they are shut down and they lose their license among other possible criminal charges. The licenses are difficult and expensive to get so it isn't something that people mess around with often.

 

I'm sure that some guns are bought for cash and sold under the table by shady dealers but it is not common in most of the US.

 

The Sandy Hook killer was denied access to a gun because he failed a background check. So the system did what it was supposed to do.

 

Hundreds of millions of guns in the US yet less than

i can buy guns off a buddy down the road if i wanted to. i was even offered another rifle just the other week. the sad thing is i aint even american and i dont figure theres as much of them going around but still they are easy to access. years ago ive had a cop come and take an old winchester of mine away before and i signed it over to be destroyed. didnt even charge me for it either but he could have. that was fun, but it shows just how relaxed the laws are over on this continent.

 

background checks isnt going to do much at this point to prevent all of them from ending up in the wrong hands considering everybody and their dog pretty much has one already. there is no way to win this battle without putting a metal detector and a security guard at every single door in every public place, and still all the nutjobs would find their ways to get their rocks off.

 

my simple solution would be to just wear a condom. better yet have one permanently attached to you for life. stupid and crazy people should not be allowed to fornicate and have stupid and crazy children that might end up doing something stupid and crazy.

Your first sentence proved my point. It wasn't just Bob, it was Crazy Bob. If Crazy Bob had been given the proper facility to help manage his "craziness" and the right care, there should be no reason why he'd be able to get his hands on a gun in the first place.

 

People are going to die whether you ban guns or not. You know how easy it is to make a bomb these days? I haven't looked but I'm sure Google can give you a hundred different ways to make bombs out of ordinary cleaning materials. So, even if you ban guns, people will either find ways around it or they'll resort to bombs, knives, etc.

 

The problem comes down to identifying and providing the help needed to manage individuals with mental health issues. That's all it boils down to. You can blame the gun as much as you want but it doesn't pull the trigger by itself. It has an individual with some sort of mental issue pulling it when the target is children.

 

And your last statement about my own kid being shot and killed. You really think I'm gonna blame the weapon in that crime? No. I'm gonna be going after the son of a **** that killed my child, regardless of whatever in the hell he used.

 

It's obvious you care nothing for the right to bear firearms. Fine. But don't you and everyone else who thinks like you deny millions of Americans the right to carry them because of one ****ed up individual.

there is an extent to having the right to bare arms. the last time i was in washington i went to prince's in oroville and there was some cowboy looking roughneck just going about his every day shopping with a pistol on his side in plain view.

 

i mean really? you people go so far as to protect some ammendment that you fight for the fight to be able to pack heat everywhere you go? i mean really.....prince's shopping center? why do you need a pistol? who are you protecting yourself from? a bunch of angry fat chicks who are about to mob you when they just realised you just bought the last box of twinkies ?

 

oh no nothing wrong with the gun laws at all. everybody should have to carry weapons on them everywhere they go. shopping malls, movie theater, schools. whatever, it doesnt matter. you never know when some crazy psychopath is about to lose his mind, but hey as long as he has the right to bare arms and he didnt just get out of jail or escape from the psyche ward, who cares right?

 

me i like it over here the way things are for me. i can walk down the street without having to arm myself and i can go shopping without having to worry about getting into a shootout with some dude if i just stole his parking spot

hey man just saying. you guys got some really stupid laws down there, yet every time **** happens, it becomes a national tragedy and you guys wonder why?

 

and every time this kind of **** happens, they completely glorify the guy who done the heinous act. they blame it on the books he read, the video games he played, the movies he watched, the things he liked on facebook....etc.... What they fail to pin it on is the actual shooter himself, and the flawed laws and systems in place that allowed him to commit this act in the first place.

 

those two things are 100% the problem right there. Something is wrong when you get a bunch of psychopaths obtaining guns and being able to walk into public places with them .

 

This problem will never be solved. There will always be gun crimes in america each and every single day. there will always be mass shootings of random innocent people. none of this will ever be stopped. Why? because the amount of money for security would be too impractical, and americans would riot and start a war if they changed the 2nd amendmant.

 

if anything you guys should no longer be surprised every time some random people get shot dead. the media should stop covering it. your system is set up in place so that pretty much anybody can walk around with all kinds of guns, and pretty much everybody has them, so stop acting all sensitive susie every time some radom people get gunned down.

 

your system is set up to allow that kind of craziness to happen, and you choose not to do anything about it that will drastically change it so there is no need to act all surprised when it does. they need to stop covering this **** on the news, stop glorifying the killers, and censor this stuff completely, because the only thing its doing is showing the country how much of a problem they have that they will never be able to fix, and giving ideas to other copycat killers.

or just have everybody mentally tested regularilly to see if theyre ****ed up. kind of like how they should test seniors regularily before they can renew their drivers license.

(i mean like monthly regularly, not once every couple years after theyve already gone senoile )

 

i mean give them pictures of hitler, saddam, osama, satan, a teddy bear, and an innocent school girl, and ask them to circle each of the images that are a sign of evil and deserve to be shot in the head, and if they circle the teddy bear or school girl, lock them up and throw away the key. dont let them into the public where they could obtain firearms and go find something crazy to do with them.

 

yeah thats not going to stop anything but its a nice pipe dream

 

in reality there is no way to regulate this. its always going to happen. anybody can get a gun and then lose their mind and go on a rampage, it doesnt matter if they are registered or not, there is way too many guns flowing around the country and public security has so many loopholes to exploit you can basically go and do it if you really wanted to.. most people wouldnt do it without some kind of a reason. when random shootings occur, its because the person is ****ed up in the head, hellbent on revenge and delivering some kind of a message, and deserves to be locked up for life in the looney bin but he managed to beat the system one way or another.

Canada has better control over guns and we still get shootings, now not as many as the USA but we also less population. And more goverment oversight/control does not mean better, here in Canada we had several people register glue guns and get restricted firearms license's for said glue guns from the goverment. I don't know what the answer is to solve the problem but always saying more goverment less guns I dont think is the answer or the best soloution. But just my opinion :-@

ha i thought that pic was directed at me then i just realised its your signature

 

 

its unfortunate this kind of stuff happens though. i really dont see any ground breaking solutions in all honesty. people are always going to have guns and people will always fight for the fight to have them. and not everybody is an honest rational sane responsible individual so this kind of stuff is always going to happen.

 

but if lindsay lohan or paris hilton got arrested or if lance armstrong confessed around the time of the sandy hook shootings, guaranteed you wouldnt hear much about sandy hook because they would be too busy covering the latest paris hilton or lance armstrong fiasco and slandering them on tv 24/7 for weeks......hell it worked during the BP oil spill. lindsay lohan gets arrested after skipping out on her latest DUI hearing and the rest of the country seemed to forget that the fact that there was billions of gallons of oil spilling into the ocean every day because that made for a bigger story.
