No, I just actually take the time to do research into all this junk, over decades, and not just blindly accept the snake oil this corrupt gov/administration and their media lapdogs hand out. And not blindly for any side either, I'm very scrutinous and developed some level of rational investigative skills.

It's easy to be a "savior" when most around you are just dumb and blind by choice. Aint no noble savior title in it though, mostly scorn. Most WANT to be deaf, dumb and blind, as long as they get their one or two issues addressed, or nodded at.

Then some do listen, sometimes, maybe listen enough to at least put some time into checking things out for themselves. That's half the battle right there, and even more so in recent years as it seems all my fellow countrymen have some form of ADD staring into their cellphones linked to narcissistic farcebook oblivious to the world around them.

But I don't just write like that to encourage you to check things out for yourself, but there is an exchange of information and ideas going on with those that are in the know, even if you don't recognize it (i.e. my words are public and I know it). The world stopped revolving around you when your parents graduated you out of your crib [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Funny cartoon, but let's be serious here. Firearms are clearly a problem in the US. 70% of homicides involved firearms. 70% of those were using pistols ( https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/uc..._2008-2012.xls ), so it would be less invasive and more effective to ban pistols than rifles, shotguns, etc.

The problem with banning pistols is it is rather invasive to the general population. Around 40% of US households own firearms and a third of the 300 million firearms in the US are pistols. Black men are only 6% of the population yet commit half of the homocides ( https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/uc...ender_2013.xls, https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/uc...-homicide-data ). So if we simply ban this 6% of the population from owning firearms, we'd reduce homocides by nearly 50%! Don't even need background checks.

I just groan how the default response to everything nowadays is blaming the 2nd amendment. Gun violence and cops killing people, even black people (not to mention half the time there's a big stink about it it was obviously justified), is so rare that to worry about it and treat it as a priority over other crippling deficiencies in this society is mentally ill. Can't the left just admit they are communists who hate the entire Bill of Rights? Why twist logic to justify it, just own up to it.

If guns themselves are the real problem, then the people who own the most guns would be responsible for the most gun violence.

But that's not the case.

So stop talking about taking away guns like that would really fix things.

Would there be less gun violence if there were no guns? Of course. But why stop there? There would be no violence at all if we chained everyone in the world to a wall. Let's just ignore the real reason for people using tools improperly and strip liberties away instead of fixing the reasons why people use tools improperly!


Like... ask any decent parent. If their one kid decided to hit his sibling with a baseball when he got mad... would the parents pull the kid out of his little league? Would they throw away every baseball and other spherical object in the house? After all, the kid doesn't need balls to play with, and when he throws those instead of just slapping his sibling it can cause more harm.

Fuck no. The parents address the real issue, the poor judgment to be violent towards the sibling. They teach he kid to deal with frustration in different, less violent ways and/or they look for the reason why he got upset in the first place and try to fix that.


Don't take away guns. Fix the reasons why people feel the need to use guns improperly.

I dunno about that, last night we were awaken to a mutiny, all of my firearms rose up and I had to give them all hugs or else they were going to shoot me and my GF.
