Thanks for chiming in. Strong, thought provoking stuff.
Cars basic use is transportation.
What good reason is there for the average citizen to be able to purchase an assault rifle?

The overall homicide rates per 100,000 (regardless of weapon type) reported by the United Nations for 1999 were 4.55 for the U.S. and 1.45 in England and Wales.

Why the would you wanna ban guns when we share a ing border with MEXICO the most violent in place on earth. Go yourself, you aren't taking my guns.
Try killing 13 peeps with a knife and injuring 30 others.
Your argument loses credibility at "regardless of weapon type", B... we're talking about guns only....
Who'd have ever imagined by page 5 the discussion would be where it is now
One death is too many, so why aren't you arguing for knife control, B?
Something called the 2nd Amendment stands there to protect the rest of us from knee jerk idiots like you.
Had everyone in the theater been armed, that guy wouldn't have attacked in the 1st place. They attack the weakest.
Your answer: take guns from the law abiding (the only people laws affect) so they cannot protect themselves from the criminals (those who don't care about the laws).
A person who wants to kill everyone including themselves isn't going to get a background check. They are going to find a way to get a gun or construct a bomb or poison the drinking system or burn a place to the ground. They aren't hindered by the laws. Laws only come into effect after the fact, just ask the families of the victims of any crime, how much the law protected them.
Yeah you can try to argue your liberal pussy bull till you're blue in the face but that guy woulda got guns legally or otherwise seeing as how we share a border with some of the biggest drug/gun smugglers in the world.
Plus, second amendment. Not taking guns away. Pointless to even suggest.
Because a gun is infinitely more lethal than a knife.
The practical purpose there being to fatally wound.
Unless you are cantthinkofanything that shoots the knee cap.
Well, this tends to happen when gun control supporters rush to politicize a tragedy....
And enough with this he must have a 'mental' issue, cannot it not be that some people just enjoy this ?
You read the "bomb" part, right?
Untrue, in fact, I believe that he was prepared for someone to be armed due to the protective gear he was wearing. Also, he didn't kill himself
Debunked when gun carrying by-standers failed to shoot Jared Lee Lougher. This was well do ented.
He got tackled by someone without a gun while he was reloading.
Try again.
One would have to have severe mental problems in the first place to enjoy killing people, tbh.....
Don't care what side of the gun issue you're on,at the NRA's sense of timing
Um...when SHOULD we politicize it?
When is it okay to say "Guns are way too ing lethal to let the general public have and leads scores of innocent people getting murdered when theyre at the movie theater, supermarket or even school?"
Because youre certainly not allowed to say it immediately following the incidents themselves.
It's called Threat Neutralization Training. I'd be happy to discuss it again with you but I'm not sure it's relevant to this thread.
Why didnt he use a bomb if theyre the same thing?
If its just as easy to get, conceal, use etc, why do these punks keep sticking with guns?
Maybe cuz theyre afraid they'd blow themselves up in the process? Maybe because you cant walk into a walmart and buy a pre-assembled bomb?
Notice he didn't attack a police station.
You shouldn't own a gun. Just call the cops, you know, people with guns, to defend you. That worked great in the theater.
Those "threats" watching the batman movie sure were "neutralized", huh?
bag.
Youre ing double-speak would make George Orwell proud.
A lot of people that call for an outright ban in guns are not taking into account the number of guns already in circulation. It would be 60-70 years before guns would really start to be rare. And that's only with cooperation from gun manufacturers, and assuming guns aren't pouring in from Mexico. What was done with Class III firearms is not practical with semi-autos, shotguns, or handguns.
