Active Shooter In Louisville

[TSA]

The whole "polite society" thing is cracking me up

I'm just running with it I didn't say it first.

[ChumpDumper]

TSA is somehow arguing with Qhris, who is the only one who said anything about a polite society.

I have encountered many rude people in society and not one of them has murdered me with a gun.

Keep trying.

Lol running with polite society as if it's a thing

You said you had me on ignore what happened?

One thing I did like about Norway's laws in reading them was the focus on securing guns safely and having to prove you were doing so. That would make a huge dent in gun homicides/suicides here in the USA yet I never hear anyone pushing it. That is common sense gun control and would make an immediate difference. The amount of mass shootings and regular shootings that account from stolen guns in huge.

I’d be all for supporting that.

Agree 100%. The focus in the US on "universal background checks" and "red flag laws" are a red herring which would do little to nothing. Here were my recommendations after Uvalde

For starters, a well-regulated militia would include:

Every gun owner must take federally mandated training, tailored to the gun they own, includes mental health check. Must repeat every 2 years

30 day waiting period on new gun purchases

Private gun sales must go through federal broker, also subject to 30 day waiting period

Ban clips larger than 10, confiscate anything larger

Limit ammo purchases everywhere except shooting ranges. Can rent larger clips at the shooting range. Cannot take ammo or large clips from shooting ranges home with you

Raise minimum age of gun ownership to 21

Must carry gun insurance. Insurance company financially liable for any crime committed with said gun

Gun owners are criminally liable if their gun is used in a crime, or accidental shooting by a child, and they are shown to have not properly protected it (locked in safe for example)

Ban military-style protective armor

Missing from this list but on the Norway list is registration. Just like a car, you have to register your specific firearm during acquisition, sale, trade, etc. So the Feds have a full accounting of every gun in circulation

Looks like you stopped with the re ed "djohn where muh money". Your usual posts are pretty funny

Armed compared to the rest of the world. That was a dumb question.

Just read Norway's regulations...I'd fine with them. I live in California and already deal with some of the strictest if not the strictest regulations in the country.

But the rest of the world isn't armed, if we're using the US as the barometer. I posted the ranking. The US is the only country (and by far) that has more guns than people.

Are you sure about those Norway regulations? 48 hour notice to enter your home and inspect your gun safe? Yeah, I don't think so.

[ElNono]

I mean I feel like "be more like Norway" is a perfectly agreeable position but conservatives would rather argue about tangential bull and minutiae than find common ground while kids are getting shot in schools on an almost monthly basis. Sick, miserable, insecure s.

But it isn't their position, that's the catch 22.

The moment you tell them they have to justify why they want to own a gun, or that permits are only granted at the sole discretion of the local police authority, or that there's a limit in the amount of ammo they can purchase, etc etc etc, it's the moment they start yelling that the gubment wants to take their guns from them.

C'mon there's armed, well armed, and sorta armed. Everyone knows this.

It’s definitely not the position of the Republican Party or the NRA. So to effectively support that type of policy at any sort of scale would require people like TSA to vote for Democrats and we know that ain’t gonna happen.

I think this is frankly a minority of conservatives, at least it has been in my experience. The problem is the majority of conservatives prefer to argue minority conservative positions they don't necessarily agree with just to spite the libs.

Just look at the abortion topics. You've got conservatives who are either too chicken to say anything that might contradict the more radical red-teamers, or you've got people saying like "Well I don't agree with banning all abortions, but s should expect consequences when they can't keep their pants on."
