The Efficacy of Gun Data

[HAL 9000 96]

And then many of those Americans travel to those countries and realize how paranoid we've become in this country.

One good battery of testing would be fine, Chuck.

But thanks for showing more paranoia. That's pretty concerning- maybe not on you personally but certainly on some of the real crazies out there.

just taking it to an extreme, like the gun grabbers are doing. zomg someone was shot, ban all guns! what, i can't play by their rules?

I really wish extreme cases would be readily unusable in all arguments people made on this site. But if that were the case, many on your side of the argument seesaw would not be able to post much.

Then again things can be properly contextualized (again... not something that favors the people you tend to agree with more often than not here). And with context... we'd realize the obvious. Rambo killers use guns. Too bad... because I myself like the feeling of recoil.

and along with realizing the obvious, one would concede that people save themselves and others with guns.

Most certainly... in some cases. Break the glass in case of maniac shooting.

yet someone would complain that gun is not properly secured and it does not have a trigger lock

Well not everyone can be happy all the time right?

Better yet... just have everyone carry and then whenever crazyshooter starts firing, there's strength in numbers.

that's pretty much my thoughts.

As long as they're fit to carry and not prone to violence... then we could certainly agree that guns don't kill people.

does it not bother you that there is a movement out there to take away your guns, and leave you helpless to some nutcase with a gun?

the government won't protect you. 911 isn't quick. maybe praying might help.

Nobody could be more prepared for gun violence than four armed police officers sitting down to morning paperwork and a cup of coffee and yet:

This happens!!!! Ya, guns are great charles...

This Big Hit is going out to Big Money Booyah. We hope he considers it....

or just maybe, they were not situationally aware.

And thus the argument made over and over, guns are necessary to protect oneself gets weaker and weaker.

Clearly these officers should have drank their coffee, and worked at their laptops with guns drawn, safeties off, one eye on the laptop screen, one eye on the look out for a 'safely' armed individual looking to gun them down...
