To ban people who disagree with you. Why is that? "Birthers" and "right wingers" aren't going to vote Democrat and aren't going to help get Democrats elected. But nationally (and of course a greater percentage in certain states) about 30% of "gunners," assuming that terms simply means "people who own guns," are Democrats. So you want to ban roughly 1/3 of people who vote Democrat from this board? Do you want to kick them out of the party too? Your purity tests are a sure way to guarantee that Democrats never again control the house or senate.

NRA will stop at nothing until more guns and ammo are sold! Now! wordpix Dec 2015 #75

Just try walking near the Republican-owned Capitol with a open-carry weapon erronis Dec 2015 #2

good point ---repuke Congress supports open carry as long as it's not near them wordpix Dec 2015 #76

forgot to add, this is akin to their chickenhawk stands wordpix Dec 2015 #78

They only want to subject the majority (non-gun owners) to the dangers of their fetish. onehandle Dec 2015 #3

Gun nuts: Where logic takes a holiday and all rules of nature are meaningless! Initech Dec 2015 #4

There really is a simple answer ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #5

That seems like a rule that guards against irresponsibility. Conch Dec 2015 #6

I think that's the point. Straw Man Dec 2015 #13

Who exactly is going to enforce these rules? world wide wally Dec 2015 #79

The police. Straw Man Dec 2015 #89

You put it on and take it off at home, and you never touch it in between. AlbertCat Dec 2015 #10

Sure. Straw Man Dec 2015 #12

If that's the analogy that works best for you, then yes. AlbertCat Dec 2015 #20

Sorry, but ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #24

I carry safely, causing harm to no one. AlbertCat Dec 2015 #26

What's your point? Straw Man Dec 2015 #30

Why do you call it a firearm instead of what it is, a gun? pangaia Dec 2015 #35

The terms are interchangeable. I used both. Straw Man Dec 2015 #37

If you're using it in self-defense, it's a WEAPON. To my view, anyway. MADem Dec 2015 #38

There are lots of kinds of weapons. Straw Man Dec 2015 #43

Listen to you! "Propaganda value!" You chose your name well, I see. nt MADem Dec 2015 #45

I'll stand by it. Straw Man Dec 2015 #48

Weapon is a military term. Fake militia types use that gun or firearm term. MADem Dec 2015 #50

Right and wrong. Straw Man Dec 2015 #52

That's probably not a bad idea.... nt MADem Dec 2015 #53

Nope, no agenda there. Straw Man Dec 2015 #58

My agenda involves separating idiots from weapons. I think it's a good goal. nt MADem Dec 2015 #59

Your agenda seems to be separating EVERYONE from weapons. Straw Man Dec 2015 #62

It works well in UK and Australia. nt MADem Dec 2015 #66

Now can we stop ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #92

Who's pretending? They need to be limited and licensed. MADem Dec 2015 #95

You seem confused. Straw Man Dec 2015 #96

Listen to you, making all these assumptions about what I MADem Dec 2015 #97

Please explain this: Straw Man Dec 2015 #98

My response to you is the same I gave another: jonno99 Dec 2015 #55

Unnnnh...you're talking TO someone who has been in the military. MADem Dec 2015 #57

Like most things it is the "exceptions" that makes the news. My point stands. nt jonno99 Dec 2015 #60

So do mine. nt MADem Dec 2015 #68

Adam Lanza's mother carried safely too. Squinch Dec 2015 #41

Yet her son managed to murder her in her sleep. Straw Man Dec 2015 #44

You just made my point. Squinch Dec 2015 #46

Which was what? Straw Man Dec 2015 #47

There's another simple answer... Francis Booth Dec 2015 #11

Fuck that Cosmocat Dec 2015 #14

To someone who can only think in absolutes ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #16

No, your "simple answer" is not the answer. This was not a "I mixed up my gunz" shooting. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #15

Wrong again. Straw Man Dec 2015 #17

I'm not wrong. As you acknowledge, this was not a "I mixed up my gunz" shooting. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #23

You've got a couple of fundamental errors there. Straw Man Dec 2015 #27

Pass a law that says that all guns at guns shows must be loaded. Jerry442 Dec 2015 #116

You can't safely evaluate a loaded gun. Straw Man Dec 2015 #128

An even simpler answer... livingonearth Dec 2015 #21

Thank you. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #25

When in doubt, throw a 'toon. Straw Man Dec 2015 #28

Those are correct stats. That is why the NRA banned CDC research on gun violence. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #32

I'm not taking it on your word. Straw Man Dec 2015 #34

"Since when does the NRA have authority over the CDC?" SunSeeker Dec 2015 #54

So you recognize that the NRA doesn't have the power to ban anything? Straw Man Dec 2015 #56

Gun advocates always have the same talking points. SunSeeker Dec 2015 #65

And gun controllers always resort to the "talking points" accusation ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #90

Project much? nt SunSeeker Dec 2015 #93

Are you denying that you just made that very accusation? Straw Man Dec 2015 #94

Food for thought: jonno99 Dec 2015 #63

I'm very sorry for any suicide, but phylny Dec 2015 #100

The US has a higher murder rate. Japan has a higher suicide rate. The point of my reply jonno99 Dec 2015 #119

Thank you. My point is that phylny Dec 2015 #120

Agreed. nt jonno99 Dec 2015 #126

Simpler but vague. Straw Man Dec 2015 #31

Simple and true. livingonearth Dec 2015 #64

You're missing a major point. Straw Man Dec 2015 #69

In a perfect world guns would never be handled unless in self-defense. livingonearth Dec 2015 #80

One more time: The greatest risk comes from handling guns ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #88

To answer your question... livingonearth Dec 2015 #129

That's certainly a more reasoned response ... Straw Man Dec 2015 #130

Here's the way I look at it... livingonearth Dec 2015 #131

That's fine. Straw Man Dec 2015 #132

Very good point TeddyR Dec 2015 #110

Never mind. Straw Man Dec 2015 #91

so delusional paranoia is "necessary handling" pasto76 Dec 2015 #114

Absolutely not. Straw Man Dec 2015 #122

"...people will be handling lots of guns as they shop... Jerry442 Dec 2015 #115

Interesting. Straw Man Dec 2015 #121

Yes, well-trained and responsible carriers would never... Jerry442 Dec 2015 #124

So what's your proposal? Straw Man Dec 2015 #125

Hell, gun nut logic says kindergarteners should be armed. 47of74 Dec 2015 #7

there is only one cardinal rule of gun handling... getagrip_already Dec 2015 #42

"there is no cardinal rule". Does it really need to be said: jonno99 Dec 2015 #72

so make them mandatory getagrip_already Dec 2015 #74

The thing is, we already have laws which prosecute "gross" & "criminal" negligence, jonno99 Dec 2015 #81

Heck, you can't even bring on UNCOVERED GUN to a GUN RANGE!!! vkkv Dec 2015 #49

Correct. Straw Man Dec 2015 #51
