Long time Anti-Gun Advocate State Senator R.C. Soles, 74, shot one of two intruders at his home just outside Tabor City , N.C. about 5 p.m. Sunday, the prosecutor for the politician's home county said.

The intruder, Kyle Blackburn, was taken to a South Carolina hospital, but the injuries were not reported to be life-threatening, according to Rex Gore, district attorney for Columbus, Bladen andBrunswick counties..

The State Bureau of Investigation and Columbus County Sheriff's Department are investigating the shooting, Gore said. Soles, who was not arrested,declined to discuss the incident Sunday evening.

"I am not in a position to talk to you," Soles said by telephone. "I'm right in the middle of an investigation."

The Senator, who has made a career of being against gun ownership for the general public, didn't hesitate to defend himself with his own gun when he believed he was in immediate danger and he was the victim.

In typical hypocritical liberal fashion, the "Do as i say and not as i do" Anti-Gun Activist Lawmaker picked up his gun and took action in what apparently was a self-defense shooting. Why hypocritical you may ask? It is because his long legislative record shows that the actions that he took to protect his family, his own response to a dangerous life threatening situation, are actions that he feels ordinary citizens should not have if they were faced with an identical situation.

It has prompted some to ask if the Senator believes his life and personal safety is more valuable than yours or mine.

But, this is to be expected from those who believe they can run our lives, raise our kids, and protect our families better than we can.

Maybe this is why Fuzzy likes Soles so much:

Says he was 13 when Soles lured him to his home (http://www.carolinajournal.com/exclusives/display_exclusive.html?id=5759)

R.C. Soles accused of taking advantage of troubled teens (http://www.starnewsonline.com/article/20110620/ARTICLES/110629999/1177?Title=R-C-Soles-accused-of-taking-advantage-of-troubled-teens-ex-senator-denies-allegations)

As long as third world countries exist, I'll always have multiple weapons and lots of ammo. Additionally, I'm not the type to overestimate America's military dominance. Dominance does get tested. Do I think I'll be defedning from invasion any time soon? No. That said, I still don't think there's any place 100% safe in the universe.

Oh, and I'm not sure how surveys or stats back things up, but I'm one to believe that knowjng your neighbor probably owns guns is discouraging from committing some violent crime with said neighbor. From what I've heard, 9 out of 10 Texans owns a gun, so I know that makes me feel safe, actually...

That's what I hate about guns. That's what IMHO makes em worse than nukes. A dreadful virus might kill 99% of the world without a single nuke being launched, and who will have all the guns?

One well versed has essentially unlimited destructive capability with a full auto. Plus I tend to imagine trashcan Man hauling a nuke back to las vegas in his search for heavy weapons.

A reduction form 14 to one is not AS significant as a reduction form 14 to none; however, it is still a significant reduction. Because it is still significant, it speaks to the efficacy of the Australian ban.

Now hypocrisy not being a valid argument against an idea aside, the entire argument of the email is that this senator was for gun support yet he still used a gun to protect himself. Since he is a hypocrite we will do the guilt by association gig and conclude we shouldn't list nor trust those that support limiting gun rights.

If he is not really anti-gun then that whole house of cards falls down and it only becomes yet another anecdote.

Can you explain the 43 years between the 1928 mass killing and the subsequent 1971 mass killing? What laws or bans enabled that span of no mass shootings? What changed? What is to prevent another mass shooting since firearms are still available and you can kill someone with a .38 and a 10 round magazine, in fact you can kill 10 people without reloading, so it wasn't the absence of firearms.

Except that he defended himself successfully with a firearm. The rest, I agree.

It's not about what you care about you megalomanical douche. The OP was by TSA not your racist ass. You did not make the argument and the response was to the OP. This isn't about you although you are intested in showing your ass to everyone this holiday it seems.

And you want to talk about moving the goalposts. Now you bring up pre 1970. I don't know. That is interesting to say the least/

I think that argument has merit though. The argument I would have made in your shoes from the get go would be that mass shootings are so rare relative to the time frames and populations involved that it would be impossible to make any commentary one way or another as to the efficacy. I have been waiting for a couple of days now for you to make that argument but you instead back into it from what I am guessing is a mailer.

I only wanted to point out that making the distinction from zero to one really did not posit much in your favor. I wanted to point out that you suck at picking your battles so to speak. The point still stands that there were no events for a decade following the ban and only one for all the time since. Myself, I am more interested in the larger sample sizes like the crime rates, gun accidents, deaths, crimes etc for our NATO allies. They seem to do better than we do in terms of gun policy as evidenced by them being in much better shape.

Less crime, less death, less accidents and so forth. This holds true for UK, Canada, France, Germany, Australia, etc.

No, I've purposely avoided it, because rare or not does not negate it's frequency if you call all other events noise. It would be casually dismissing the shootings. Instead, I wanted to focus on the "before there were many" part and see just how many and what the frequency actually was instead of just taking someone's word for it. To go 43 years without a mass murder is amazing, assuming it actually happened and someone wasn't hiding the truth. Then you have 3 or 4 of these things in a couple years, that really skewed the results. Outside of that anomaly, shootings were spaced 4 to 5 years apart, and the one in 2002 followed that trend being spaced 4 years from the Port Arthur shooting but only 2 years from the mass murder by arson.

No, I feel safe in saying that the gun ban did not have that great of an effect on mass shootings, if any. Just judging by how these shooters have planned and carried out their attacks, it's not like they had guns laying around and one day decided to use them. They acquired guns for that purpose. They stocked up on ammo. You can still do both in Australia, you just need to concoct a reason. You can get illegal weapons. You're going to kill people, how legal do you need to be? There are surely people who would sell you their firearm and call it stolen for 2x what they paid for it. Surely there are still strawman purchases there. But that raises another question; how honest are they compared to us on average? How likely are they to skirt the law and sell things to people in an illegal fashion to make a profit, if they think they won't get caught?

I remember sitting at a cafe in Finland around 2am and there were three girls standing across the street waiting for the cross walk signal to change. It was -20 or something absurd and they just stood there, in tights, until the light changed. There wasn't a car in sight. I asked one of them about it when they entered the cafe and she said that they all regard laws in the same way, that if you don't always abide by them they are useless. That they are not to decide when and when not to obey laws. In the US people get run over for crossing a street 20 yards from an intersection. People intentionally go in and out the wrong doors. They drive off the interstate and onto the access roads on a whim, through the median. Many many people feel that laws are for other people, and they just want to sneak on through as if the machine won't know, as if they aren't part of society, that it exists around them only. Many other countries aren't like that at all. We are a self entitled nation, we often don't give a damn about others despite our lip service to the contrary. In many countries, if you tell someone "hey, why don't you come over for dinner sometime?" you will probably see them that night because it's taken literally. Here's is a passing "get the fuck away from me" said in a nicer tone. You probably won't see each other again until the next chance encounter.

Just saying we are not comparable to them, so why keep using them as a measuring stick?

However, the shootings are rare, but something else was happening at that time that's not happening now other than those shootings. I just haven't pinpointed it. It could be a statistical anomaly like how you can get 7 heads in a row with a perceived 50/50 chance each flip. You might try all day and not get 7, but then one day it might happen. It just does not make any sense that mass shootings would be affected by legal moves UNLESS we consider that a large percentage of the mass shooters were law abiding citizens prior to their romp, so perhaps they would be discouraged from attempting to acquire guns. I really doubt that though.


Less crime, less death, less accidents and so forth. This holds true for UK, Canada, France, Germany, Australia, etc.
The crime rates are largely socioeconomically related. If gun opponents would say "deaths" instead of "gun related deaths", it would at least sound meaningful. If you get rid of anything you will lower the deaths related to it. That's a no brainer. It doesn't mean you lower crime related deaths. We should never consider suicide as a gun related death, not for accounting purposes, as it's a decision by an individual to exit the game, and they are just picking the easiest method they know.

a strict gun control may not have any significant effect on gun crimes overall but it'll certainly lower the rate of mass shooting since most criminals of such cases got their guns from legal resources like the one who killed 26 innocent people at sandy hook.

The weapon itself is never illegal. It's possession that's illegal. Once Adam Lanza stole the weapons, he was in illegal possession.

You're trying to draw arbitrary lines to suit your argument. Doing that doesn't lead to anything constructive, though it might make you feel better.

The weapon itself is never illegal. It's possession that's illegal. Once Adam Lanza stole the weapons, he was in illegal possession.

but it was the legal possessor's duty to keep his/her gun from getting into a fucker's hands illegally, right? i mean if someone steals your gun and commits a crime with the gun, you should also take responsibility for forefeiting your duty imho. a strict gun law would make gun owners like yourself more responsible for the firearms they own so that it would lower the likelihood of similar tragedies happening, you can't argue against that i guess

Kind of hard to blame the legal owner since she was fucking murdered.

Well, the argument might be this -- if she was going to put the crazy kid away for being volatile, it may have been a good idea to keep the guns out of the house until he was out of the house.

Yeah, with a legal gun that she was careless with and let fall into the hands of her psychotic son. Real responsible.

I still want to see evidence that this senator is anti-gun.

Anyone...

Let's obfuscate the conversation by splitting hairs regarding the word 'illegal' and then accuse someone else of drawing arbitrary lines.

Jeez, is there any argument that you do not degrade down into semantics?
