I'd also hardly say we have a *unique* problem with gun violence.A pretty decent number of countries have a much bigger problem with gun violence than we do.It's just that most of those countries have already put forward arms control laws that don't fucking work.Or they're war zones.

Flee is just too convincing and impossible to refute.Sorry fam but nobody has the right to determine what private property another person can own so long as they are not actively interfering with another person.

QuoteI vehemently disagree with the idea that I'm depriving any person of their "Rights" by preventing them from attaining something created for the purpose of killing. You're denying a person of their RIGHTS by preventing them from doing something that has no direct or inherent impact on you or anybody else. It's essentially the same thing as a smoking or liquor ban.

Like Stephen Colbert said"The definition of insanity is not changing anything, and expecting anything to change."

Quote from: I_IRONMAN_I on October 05, 2015, 12:16:35 AMYou know what's funny? You'll ban guns, and still get those nasty shootings. And what isn't a shooting turns into stabbings and possibly sword violence. What you gonna do then? Ban blades?SpoilerBecause people can't just create their own blades/shivs and go on a killing spree.Worst part is that if it happens, how're people gonna defend themselves? Hide and hope the killer doesn't find them? That's one horrifying game of hide n seek.To be completely honest, I'd be glad to see a world with no weapons.But if there must be weapons, I'd prefer they be guns.Guns are a much less brutal weapon than those men have used historically.
