You mean like an Amendment?

Like the 2nd one - just for example....

You mean like the courage to restrict needlessly dangerous weapons - and the vigilance to enforce the laws???


We are talking about ‘Merca, right?

Yo, yo home boy!

I heard that if the news stopped covering mass shootings than they would stop happening because these nuts are only copy cats.

So...If we stop having news articles about illegal immigrants than we won’t need to pay for a wall.



And if we don’t cover Trump and take away his tweets he won’t look so stupid.

The reporting is an opportunity to not waste a tragedy and have news organizations repeat lies like Everytown.

I'll chip in for the wall, crap I carried hod one summer for a mason I could probably help build it.

You're like some kind of stable genius, Brew.

What, you don’t believe the POTUS???

Drafter, Trump lied and people died.

Have you no heart?

Your comprehension is as good as your logic.

One must speak at the level of ones audience.

You are conveniently ignoring the relative danger and availability of different types of weapons.

Now some folks would tell you a knife is as dangerous as a gun because both kill. Some will tell you they need a assault rifle with a bump-stock and 60 round clips - along with smoke grenadines - for “protection”. And others still will point out that law don’t stop crimes - so we just don’t need them.

And this, my culinary friend, is why checkers sell so much better than chess.....

Oh I think they are too, problem is bad guys are bringing them and not good guys.

Danger of availability? You're more likely to be killed by a hammer, lightning or a bee sting.....but get on with with your bad self.

You miss my point I think Brew. I'm fine with taking assault rifles out of the equation. Bump stocks too. But a murderer is going to murder. Let's figure out why they became a murderer and try to fix that. Eradicating the desease is much better than limiting the symptoms of the disease.

In regards to my previous comment regarding mental health and the insurance companies, you ask where is the money going to come from?

Remember this. The United States invented the health insurance racket. During the 1920s, individual hospitals began offering services to individuals on a pre-paid basis, eventually leading to the development of Blue Cross organizations in the 1930s. The first employer-sponsored hospitalization plan was created by teachers in Dallas, Texas in 1929.

Before 1973 it was illegal in the US to profit off of health care. The Health Maintenance Organization Act of 1973 passed by Nixon changed everything. Other countries do have private, for-profit insurance companies operating in their health care sector, and there are some indications that this sector is growing. But the business, legal and regulatory environment in which they operate is quite different than it is in the United States. The US is the only Country on the planet that allows health insurance companies to operate and profit to extreme we experience and pay. today.

Ask again where the money is supposed to come from? I suggest asking the insurance companies, not the guberment. It is NOT the guberment's responsibility to provide health care. Health care costs increased an average of 2% last year. Meanwhile health insurance premiums increased over an average of 23%. But mental health services are very limited and often not covered at all, along with the meds often prescribed. As I said before, health insurance companies often dictate to Doctors and Psychiatrists on what meds they can prescribe based on the deals they have with big pharma, NOT on what's best for the patient.

This is practically verbatim to what I've stated recently.
Except I don't own any guns.
And I thought a typical magazine held only 15.
and I can't hit a target at 10 feet with a pistol.
Frank as my witness.

Sounds like we have to make a choice... Our guns or Pelosi...

it was pretty funny, the two of us shooting pistols at each other from 10 paces, neither received as much as a flesh wound

I have been seeing suggestions of Ban this, Ban that since I have been a member here. Never have I seen you post your thoughts on "Gun Ban." I have been waiting and waiting. It is good to see that you are not naive. Also I will have to admit you are a better man than I. I was thinking how going back to public hanging

In most of these cases you’d be hanging or cutting a corpse. This one is a rare exception. I’m not sure how preventative that is.

Placeing our children under armed guard because we the people let any one have almost any kind of weapon shows just how effed up our American society is.

You know the Australians have this figured out....

I'm just surprised that we even have those dangerous "assualt" rifles, I mean before the year 2000 we didn't allow weapons in America hell when I was growing up in Texas my small town didn't even know what a gun was.... I mean they just sprang up out of nowhere in the last few years and started killing people.... Maybe we should look at what changed in society and stop blaming a tool.

Lol my point is we used to have a gun pretty much in arms reach where ever you were, friends house....preachers house hell 15 trucks in the parking lot but we didn't go mass shooting people. There has been a change in times and morality that's the issue... Not the guns

Australia doesn't make your point very well..

Kids would be a good start but it's not just kids... OKC, Vegas, Orlando just to name a few...
