Yeah, you really are on to something there Cutz.

Mom is to blame for all those cases of kids unintentionally blowing their brains out with dad's gun on dad's watch.

Those women should have known that men (where you come from) are just too dependent and simple-minded to keep track of their own kid and their own guns at the same time.

Maybe sex education should be replaced with gun education in Kindergarten.

I think that might be a good idea Maggott -- for kids who are unfortunate enough to have parents with less sense than a gnat.

I wonder if mosquitoes find Gnats intimidating. Like John Holmes would be to Marta the midget.

I doubt that either mosquitos or gnats are intimidated by each other, or much else. But, I have no way of knowing.

I don't think Martha the Midget would be intimidated by John Holmes. She'd probably just have fun riding him, as much or little as she wanted.

It's called Sociology of the nuclear family. Read a book.

You're kidding, right Ward?

I'm not surprised you do your best work as a bottom. You strike me as the submissive/want to be dominated type. Probably helps explain why you still view "mom" as the primary parent/care taker when most men started viewing their significant others as partners...what 20+ years ago?

Neanderthal, sexist, faggot, clutz.

My Grandfather called my Grandmother "Mother" but that may have been a carry over from when they had small children. He was a womanizer though so he got away with it. I'm a Motherfucker myself and have recently joined a motherfucking group of other motherfuckers.

You've been a mother fucker for a lot longer than you give yourself credit for. When was your first child born?

My dad some times referred to his mom as "mom" and often referred to her by her first name (which happened to be Alice or more often Alice Marie, her first and middle name). It was weird. They had a great relationship so I never viewed it as him insulting her and she didn't seem to mind. My uncle (my dad's brother) also referred to her often using her name instead of just "mom".

Fucking weirdos. I never thought much about it but I'd be kind of irritated if my kids started calling me anything other than "mom" (although I'm accustomed to "bitch" too).

Exactly the opposite there Mrs. Perceptive. I have no trouble viewing my significant other as a partner. The difference is that I actually respect her. She's an intelligent, responsible adult that is capable of productively contributing to society. Unlike some of the stupid I see here.

It's pretty rare to see anyone in here accused of being stupid.

It's not like I mean any of it Duch.

My wife /is/ highly intelligent and capable tho. I do mean that part.

I know that and if the intellect of much of Mock were below average I'd agree with your statement.

Stupid is, oh, I don't know, desperately seeking advice from strange strangers?

Don't mind me. I often find the most ridiculous things amusing.

Yeah, it's pretty rare, but not unheard of.

Why just the other day MS called me a dumbass. I took that to mean stupid. It almost stung like a bitch, but then I remembered calling him a dipshit a few weeks back and I quickly worked through the pain.

And, before I saw your quoted post above, I accused Cutz of not being smarter than a 5^th grader lately (in another thread).

I just want to formally apologize for any emotional scarring that insensitive remark may have caused you Cutz. I didn't really mean it. I believe you're as smart as a 5^th grader, maybe even smarter. If you were my child, I would not leave an unlocked loaded gun in your reach (and not only for reasons of self-preservation).

That may be but she married you. Brings the whole "highly intelligent/capable" claim in to question. Momentary lapse of judgment? Struck dumb in love? I dunno. Why don't you have her register so we can ask her...what the HELL were you thinking marrying the Neanderthal, faggot, clutz?

Until then, I don't believe you. She's probably a half wit retard who bags groceries at the local Price Chopper for all I know.

Clang?? There's some potential there!

New Gun Violence Research Underway

Dr. Bindu Kalesan is a gun violence researcher at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health.

Figuring out the dynamics at play in social gun culture, according to Kalesan, will be key to sparking social change about the attitudes and practices that inform gun ownership in the first place. She said educating Americans about the health dangers of having a firearm in their homes will change the way people feel about gun ownership, which in turn could drive laws that make guns more difficult to obtain.

"A public health approach, much like the anti-tobacco effort, is necessary, first to facilitate a social change and then political will to form effective policies. We also need research to understand the public health consequences in different communities and to identify effective social interventions in different populations."

For instance, past research has found a link between the rate of household gun ownership and elevated rates of firearm-suicide, despite the fact that gun owners do not have more mental health problems than non-gun owners, nor are they more prone to suicide than non-gun owners. Other studies have found that gun ownership leads to more violent crime in general, as guns tend fall into the wrong hands when stolen or sold on secondary markets.

In all, almost one in three Americans owns at least one gun, but gun ownership rates vary widely across states. At 61.7 percent, Alaska has the highest rate of gun ownership, while Delaware has the lowest, at 5.2 percent.



It’s estimated that there are about 310 million guns in the U.S. -- almost enough to arm every citizen in the country, Kalesan noted. For every three people who are fatally shot in the U.S. each year, eight are injured by guns and go on to live difficult lives after shooting because of their injuries.

“In 2013 alone, 33,636 persons were killed using a gun, while 84,258 were shot non-fatally,” said Kalesan. "Those who are injured have a difficult journey during recovery, some remaining paraplegic and injured often with PTSD for the rest of their lives.”

Something is wrong in either that guys data or wikipedia
I just looked up the number of gun murders by state for 2010 and it says 9340. I find it hard to believe that there are near 4x as many just 3 years later

The article doesn't say anything about "murdered", Six.

It says "killed".

which includes suicide, accidental death, homicide, cop shootings, etc.

Chart doesn't tell all the real statistics. I know several friends who have guns, some even have 3 & 4, and they are not on that list, so . . . .

I'm pretty sure through out the country, the same holds true for people who own guns for "many years" (before strict registration laws) just for protection. And since they never take the gun(s) out of the house, those guns remain unregistered.

It goes without saying, criminals & many outlaws with guns are not on that chart either!
