You're trolling me right?
Its all good MS. Extreme is good. Who wants to be a run of the mill, average sheep?
There are evil people in this world who do cowardly things.
Do I want to see all responsible gun owners punished for the actions of a tiny percentage?
No, however, I don't really know what the alternative is.
Remember, the victims of gun violence had rights too. The right to Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness.
They're dead now, and their families have holes in their hearts that will probably never heal.
Gun folk say 'it's not the gun'.
Yes it is.
I don't remember the stat from up thread, but it was a staggering number of shootings in a very recent span of time.
You, Six, Maggot are clearly not the problem, but none of you really even acknowledge that there IS a problem.
There's no easy solution, other than maybe going back to institutionalizing people the way we did a half century ago.
But, that would take the govt getting involved in that business too. Outrage & uproar would follow. 'How dare you lock Jimmy up, he wouldn't hurt a fly.'
Then we're right back to where we are now.
Very loose rules which allow just about anyone to slip through the cracks, buy a gun & ammo, & kill as many people as they can.
You don't have to buy a gun, you can build a shotgun for about 10 bucks right at home depot.
ETA . . . I bet this would get right into a school because it looks like junk. A pocket full of shells and this would do a lot of damage.
