You're subject to the guidelines like anyone else and your previous post was reprehensible the way you phrased it. The present one is mostly just very...

Mm, kind of. I'm more with @"unenlightened" on this. Which one, so many to choose from. :D I'm going to try a different tack if I continue anyway. It ...

That's certainly a partial solution that I would agree with. I'll say more later maybe. Got to eat. (Y)

(Y)

Politicians, for example, when they say nothing can be done are effectively if not literally saying that to the victims. I feel some others who have c...

That's fine by me. Would you mind PMing this to @"jamalrob" before you send it though to get his OK. Cheers for the help!

It's not nearly strong enough but that's an argument for doing that and more, not doing less. What I object to is people saying "let's do nothing". Th...

No, I would have thought that costs money, which we don't have. But if it's free, let us know.

No what's pathetic is having gun massacre after gun massacre and refusing to solve the problem. Not only that but actively obfuscating the problem. Wh...

@"Sir2u" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Assault_Weapons_Ban Reviving this would clearly not be enough but it would be a start.

It doesn't matter because I didn't mention "assault rifles", I mentioned "assault weapons" as defined by the Feinstein attempt at helping to solve thi...

What sickens me the most is that anyone could effectively be saying to those families' victims, "He probably would have found a way to slaughter your ...

Look it up and look up bump stocks. Or look at the pictures from his den. I'm not going to do your homework for you.

Sure, as I said, why bother with laws trying to stop people massacring others? Some of them might be rich and might be able to do it illegally anyway....

I can just see the gun advocates now scratching their heads trying to invent a scenario where he kills 59 people and injures 500 without having access...

Like a 20 year old in America can't buy a beer because that would be too dangerous! Just give the young folk military grade assault weapons instead. T...

He had high power weapons + a legal bump stock. He effectively had a machine gun and fired 90 rounds in ten seconds and he acquired everything legally...

Exactly, there's no point regulating weapons or drugs or anything really. If someone plans to do something bad they'll always find a way. Why bother t...

Well, congratulations on proving you are oppressed @"WISDOMfromPO-MO" on the basis of quoting one questionable law applicable to some US states. Good ...

Lol. I better bill you. Laters, folks.

Damn, people weren't actually reading that stuff were they. :-O :)

I edited that straight away. Refresh your page. :) I'll hold you to that by the way. Special discount for people I agree on almost nothing with. :D

Anyway, good night all. It's been fun.

I didn't say it proved I was. I was (in my opinion). :-d

If your aim here is to make everyone lose respect for your intelligence, it's working. I can't prove that of course... ;)

Lol. He wouldn't be my first choice.

Well, yes, if a third party can clearly understand a post I've written, that suggests it's understandable at least to someone of a reasonable level of...

I'm just going to write every post twice in future to save me the trouble of repeating myself.

It wasn't whether my argument was correct, it's whether I was being clear that was the question. (Why do you need everything explained twice to you?)

So, bazookas for all it is. Viva, freedom. What's more like proof is your continued inability to understand basic analogies. But, fine, maybe Michael ...

Rubbish. I even PMed someone to check if I was clear. I was. Not being sure something would help is not a good reason not to do it especially when liv...

Oh, yes...

The specific argument now is about whether one problem (mass shootings) should not be dealt with because another might take its place (other mass murd...

So in Tiff and Thorongiland when a child molester openly working in a school molests a bunch of kids, those campaigning to ban them from schools will ...

Exactly.

What are you talking about? You completely missed the point. It's an analogy. It has to do with whether you deal with one problem (drunk driving / mas...

Have you people ever solved a problem before? First you identify the specific problem. You look at ways to solve it including evidence from third part...

That's a very strange comment. We're debating gun control after a mass shooting. So I'm talking about gun control as a means to reduce mass shootings....

More strawmanning. The fact is that drunk drivers are intent on driving under the influence of some drug. If it's not alcohol, they'll find something ...

Don't you start strawmanning me too.

Well, at least you didn't say "Yes". :D

Sometimes I feel I'm talking to chatbots in here, so I'll repeat: The problem of mass shootings (not evil, not mass murder, not dodgy cheeseburgers) h...

Don't care. I want debate not verbal love-making.

That's a rather pathetic strawman. Try again.

Bit to much of a love fest though. They both hate postmodernism with equal virulence.

Fine Tiff, keep refusing to support anything that would actually solve the problem, but the relatives of future massacre victims won't be thanking you...

Does manhood get any purer?

Success! /uploads/resized/files/94/o0zjcaykg2c0ubl7.jpg
