[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;21997631]So many angsty, rich and spoiled teens would be dead right now.[/QUOTE] Eh, it should be legal after 18.
While reading this thread, I think i saw an ad that says guns don't give people a second chance.
[QUOTE=Rotinaj;21997119]The "homeowner deters robbery" stories are just as rare, but the articles about children getting their hands on guns and hurting themselves/others are all too common.[/QUOTE] that's because it doesn't get reported in the first place, the homeowner brandishes the gun and robber flees 99% of the time. it's vice versa for the children stories, they seem like a lot because they're the only ones you see reported. besides, negligence by the parents by allowing children easy access to a firearm is not cause to ban it for everyone, that's the individual's fault.
[quote=gmod_fan77;21981018]you can't get any of those guns anyway unless for a historical collection, gun/target practice club, or military usage. Normal civilians can't buy them for self-defense. Just imagine: Your neighbor buys a high-powered sniper rifle one day for self-defense, and the next day you do something to piss him off. If he wanted to, he [B]could attach a silencer, shoot you, and get rid of you before anyone knew.[/B][/quote] Suppressor god dammit. It suppresses the sound by only 20db.

I smell riots in the future of this 4 year term.

It works so well over here in the UK. We have a gun ban and we don't have any gun crime. :buddy: One problem is that criminals don't obey the law...
pathetic gunlovers are pathetic.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;21999848]pathetic gunlovers are pathetic.[/QUOTE] Shit poster is posting shit.
[QUOTE=CPPNOOB;21995873]Palin says something. She gets a news story. What.[/QUOTE] Because everything she says is so spectacularly stupid.
[QUOTE=Bomimo;21999848]pathetic gunlovers are pathetic.[/QUOTE] You don't even live in the US either.
[QUOTE=Perfumly;22002214]You don't even live in the US either.[/QUOTE] related how?
[QUOTE=FPChris;21964811]She says it like it's a bad thing.[/QUOTE] It is a bad thing, in the US anyway, where it wouldn't make the slightest difference in gun related crimes. Holding people accountable for their firearms getting stolen is far more effective than banning them. And in any case, Obama wouldn't ban guns, for fucks sake he legalized firearm carry in government parks.
[QUOTE=deggemannen;22002230]related how?[/QUOTE] People who don't understand gun culture bashing it
[QUOTE=st0rmforce;21999613]It works so well over here in the UK. We have a gun ban and we don't have any gun crime. :buddy: One problem is that criminals don't obey the law...[/QUOTE] But the UK doesn't have even 1% of the circulation of firearms in their economy, so it works well. You can't apply the same laws to the US and expect it to work, there's no way we'd ever successfully get all the guns out of our economy. Plus we'd put a huge percent of Americans out of work, since most guns sold in America are also made here. Also, as a side note, I'm living in the UK for now, and have no problems with the gun bans because it's pretty obvious nobody has any.
[QUOTE=DrMortician;22002329]Plus we'd put a huge percent of Americans out of work, since most guns sold in America are also made here.[/QUOTE] The funny part about that is, lots of foreign gun makers love to put there manufacturing facilities here. There are no laws to get around, long as you have the proper dealer/manufacturer documentation.
[QUOTE=deggemannen;22002230]related how?[/QUOTE] Because you don't live here and you obviously don't understand the gun culture here. Most gun owners are law abiding citizens. Guns are used for target shooting, self defense, collection, hunting, etc. There will always be bad apples who do go and do something bad. But it's not as if owning a gun automatically means you're going to go and shoot up the local grocery store.
[QUOTE=The golden;21974681]Isn't that supposed to be the job of the law enforcement? You know, to cut down on crime?[/QUOTE] Law Enforcement can't be there ALL the time and a gun is useful in the situation that you are threatened and requires you have to act IMMEDIATELY. Most situations in Home Defense are diffused just by showing you are armed, burglars pussy out, but if they're not discouraged by the fact you are armed they are at your mercy.
[QUOTE=Broseph_;21975336]Could someone give me a quick run down of this Thread? I would like to take apart in it.[/QUOTE] Morons arguing with morons in an eternal slapfight. Please, spare yourself the effort of joining in a stupid argument. shit i'm too late
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;21997631]So many angsty, rich and spoiled teens would be dead right now.[/QUOTE] I see no drawbacks to this situation.
[QUOTE=zombiefreak;21997981]Suppressor god dammit. It suppresses the sound by only 20db. You have no fucking clue what gun owners are like. They are some of the most responsible people in the world. [editline]10:01PM[/editline] Ehem. He wanted to reinstate an AW ban. He doesn't want guns.[/QUOTE] He was playing for party support. It wasn't passed again and he knew it wouldn't be. [editline]06:45PM[/editline] Also what moron is pro AW ban? What the hell did that do? Columbine, the Waco incident with the cultists, the north Hollywood shootout and the Oklahoma bombing all happened during the AW ban... And all the perps used weapons that were either illegal already or banned under the AW ban. What a glorious track record.
Yeah weapons bans will never go through, why? Because it would be virtually impossible to remove every gun around here, and I'm quite sure that Obama and several other Democratic legislators know that.
He's not stupid contrary to popular belief.
I think one of the coolest things to do with a pistol is eject the clip, toss it on the ground, and draw a huge fucking Kukri from your pocket, I wouldn't really mind If they were restricted from citizens, but that doesn't change the fact that Palin's dumb as a doornail
[QUOTE=Cheesedragon;22013211]clip[/QUOTE] magazine
Obama is ant-gun, however he won't go after them because it is a politically dumb move given the opinions of most of the country. So he plays to the majority.
[QUOTE=Cheesedragon;22013211]I think one of the coolest things to do with a pistol is eject the clip, toss it on the ground, and draw a huge fucking Kukri from your pocket[/QUOTE] What, exactly, are you trying to say here?
If I had a gun handy right about now I would shoot myself over how stupid Sarah Palin is.
