GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE, OR DO THEY?

[F.U.]

I think the fact the Columbine cunts had their own private arsenals (no doubt bought for them by the parents) is much more of a telling factor than the fact they liked playing violent video games like Doom.

In fact i argue the opposite, nothing DEstresses me more than playing Call of Duty Black Ops for an hour.

Not one of the firearms Cleabold or Harris had were bought by their parrents. The were purchased from friends.

In the months prior to the attacks, Harris and Klebold acquired two 9 mm firearms and two 12-gauge shotguns. Their friend Robyn Anderson bought a rifle and the two shotguns at the Tanner Gun Show in December 1998. Through Philip Duran, another friend, Harris and Klebold later bought a handgun from Mark Manes for $500.

Using instructions acquired upon the Internet, Harris and Klebold constructed a total of 99 improvised explosive devices of various designs and sizes. They sawed the barrels and butts off their shotguns to make them easier to conceal. They committed numerous felony violations of state and federal law, including the National Firearms Act and the Gun Control Act of 1968, before they began the massacre.

On April 20, Harris was equipped with a 12-gauge Savage-Springfield 67H pump-action shotgun, (which he discharged a total of 25 times) and a Hi-Point 995 Carbine 9 mm carbine with thirteen 10-round magazines, which he fired a total of 96 times.

Klebold was equipped with a 9 mm Intratec TEC-9 semi-automatic handgun with one 52-, one 32-, and one 28-round magazine and a 12-gauge Stevens 311D double-barreled sawed-off shotgun. Klebold primarily fired the TEC-9 handgun, for a total of 55 times.

[ there has ben 3 cases of firearms being discharged in my town in the last 5 days].

Hmmmm I wonder why? It really is a puzzle locked in a riddle wrapped inside an enigma.

There hasn't been 1 case of a firearm being discharged in my town in the last 5 years.

Hmmmmm I wonder why? It really is a puzzle locked in a riddle wrapped inside an enigma.

And carrying a gun from the moment you wake to the moment you visit mister sandman? That's not preparedness that's paranoia my friend even the fucking Taliban put their guns down every now and then. Yes you are more paranoid than the Taliban.

FU is a firearms dealer. I think it would be weird if he didn't always carry.

[Cynical Ninja]

I will bet there are plenty of firearms dealers who aren't quite as paranoid.

[Maggot]

I dont believe its paranoia but kinda like getting dressed and putting your boots on. That might sound strange to you but you must open your eyes and see the world as it is with all its diversification and glory.

There is nothing “diverse” or “glorius” about packing heat every minute you are awake in fact its actually quite pathetic, sad and tragic. He has definitely seen too many Clint Eastwood and Charlie Bronson films.

I don't see it that way at all. I know guys who carry a knife everyday and I don't find that strange either.

Ramsey completely buys into all the bike riding gun toting macho posturing that goes on around here.

It doesn't really surprise me that she is so easily impressed.

Why would you carry a knife to the store or to work? Unless your work involves cutting stuff or you are planning on stabbing someone? Young punks with knives are a big problem here because once you pull it you've got to use it motherfucker or you lose face in front of your punk friends.

Sonny too, another Dirty Harry - Mr. Castle Doctrine himself.



Gun lovin' filthy dirty-minded troll always cracked me up; not sure why. Especially when he and Duchess would go at it; he usually got squashed like a bug and didn't even know it or just didn't care.

In fairness, he did make good points sometimes when he got serious too.

Who said I was impressed? Most of the guys I know that have permits to carry do so. And it only makes sense to carry since he sells guns for a living. FU being a biker has nothing to do with carrying a gun.

Yes it does. Bikers and guns go hand and hand, it's part of their bad ass lifestyle. They all pack heat or knives and are notorious for getting liquored up and starting fights at the club.

Why? If he sold pizza for a living would it make sense to walk around all day with a big pizza pie balanced on top of his fucking head?

Many many gun shy people in the world. It does not make them bad just gun shy.

Anyone can build a modern sporting rifle with basic tools and a little knowhow. A drill press, a metal brake and a few hand tools and you can build a AK. Building a AR is almost as simple. Think of the conditions that they have ben building firearms in while living in the middle east.

F.U.,

I've been waiting for details on how the Santa Monica shooter got a hold of guns with a documented history of mental illness.

Still don't know if he used straw purchasers and/or obtained the guns via private or gun show transactions to avoid being background checked, like in Columbine.

But, it's now being revealed that Zawahri (or someone from whom he acquired the guns) likely assembled various parts to produce the AKs and work around existing laws.

Anyway, I thought of this post right away when I read the investigation update. According to the article, as you noted, it's not uncommon or difficult to build your own gun. Investigators are now trying to trace the source of the parts.

I had so much fun with him! Just thinking about that boob makes me laugh. I've always wished I would have been here the night his woman came to call me out. I even rescinded her ban & sent an email inviting her back.
