By all means . . . please demonstrate how you can shoot someone if you don’t have access to a gun. THAT . . . THAT . . . is my only point!
Nothing else, you whinging douche-bag!
You want to jibber-jabber about costs, feasibility, politics . . . blah, blah, blah . . . but none of those issues counter the simple fact . . . if you don’t have a gun, you can’t shoot someone.
Cost, politics, race, sunspots, menstrual cycles, election cycles, gerrymandering, Tucker Carlson, population density, fried chicken, militaries, climate change, low-fat diets . . . doesn't change the fact . . . you can’t shoot someone if you don’t have a gun.
Again, RC . . . please contradict that FACT . . . and not with your conspiracy theory, paranoid drivel, swimming around in your head.
If I state: “If there is no bacon . . . you cannot make a BLT” . . . will you continue to be an asshole and challenge that, too?
With or without a feasibility study (and all the rest of your bullshit avoidance rhetoric): Bottom Line: No bacon; No BLT.
Go suck a liberal's dick.
You can make a BLT without bacon. Bologna, Liverwurst,and Turkey. Best sandwich ever.
Just check the mother fuckers medical records and that's how you can tell if they need a gun or not, the health insurance companies do it with pre existing conditions. Then they can of course just steal the gun from their grandma or whoever, but at least they can't legally buy an arsenal to store down in grandma's basement.
You can't have a medical marijuana card and own a gun, why should you be able to be on any other mood enhancing drug and have a gun?
Also America is closely tied with cartels and all kinds of other shady shit, you ain't getting rid of guns obviously which I assume is the point Tiki is making.
Then again, when you assume you make an asshole out of yourself. But I do that plenty, so whatever.
No one, literally no fucking one, is talking about getting rid of all the guns. Oh my fucking god.
There was another called the "Manny" (the "man" part in Bowman's). Roast Beef, Chicken Liver, Turkey, a slice of red-onion and deli mustard on some type of a roll.
Then we would go to crossbows, man has been perfecting killing each other for millennia.

Here's a hypothetical scenario: the federal gov't bans "assault" weapons, but mass shootings continue unabated, with handguns.
Of course politicians and media aren't talking about banning all civilian firearms, but that doesn't mean they aren't thinking about it. The only time that words corellate with thought and action is in the case of persons who have moral integrity. One of the defining characteristics of corporate and political behavior is making promises with no intention of keeping them, and the reason that happens is because our society doesn't value moral integrity -- which has nothing whatsoever to do with religion. It is grounded in philosophy, and for good reason: without moral integrity scientific methodology is a joke, and when scientific methodology is corrupted, so too is science -- obviously.
What you're saying here is akin to what many said about Hitler prior to becoming the supreme ruler of Germany: "there's nothing to worry about, Hindenburg will keep Hitler in check." Many that were saying this were Zionists, ironically enough. Hannah Arendt addresses that in her book, Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil. She states that the darkest aspect of the Holocaust was the conduct of the Jewish leadership. Harsh words from a Jewish intellectual, and entirely accurate. The greatest human failure of the modern era is to downplay evil until there is no time left to effectively confront it, resulting in the needless death of millions. History has taught us nothing because it's been sanitized to prevent us from meddling in the affairs of those who think they're above us.
What does this have to do with gun control? Hitler prohibited Jews from possessing firearms because they were deemed to be enemies of the state, which is how it always goes with oppressive governments: they pass laws that target "enemies" the public is manipulated into fearing, the list of which grows continuously.
We fail to learn from history because "education" has nothing to do with education. The intelligentsia in this world are philosophically illiterate bootlickers. They have nothing valuable to impart to those they are tasked with "educating". There are exceptions, of course, but they are few and far between.
It's incredibly naive to place great value on words. behavior is all that matters, because it clearly reflects the state of one's moral integrity.
I was going to purchase a pump action 30'06 because I had a ton of ammo and it would be the last gun banned...
There is no end to what must be done for weak-minded people to feel safe.
"Brave" wouldn't have been my choice in adjectives to describe the school-children.
And "Sacrifice" sounds like a religious practice . . . like prayer . . . and should be illegal (if not already) in federally funded schools.
