pras it buddy I may be evil to some, but to the OTHER HALF im totally chill. Amazing that half of 300 million are cool with people like me and the other half literally think im a murder cus I dont agree with a 15 year old chick with a shaved head that thinks that the school shouldnt do anything to help a student that "they knew since middle school" had problems, and instead its best to ostrasize them, then get on national TV and brag about that infront of 300 million people [You must be logged in to view images.

I think a nation wide gun database sounds like a good idea; if implemented correctly. Mandatory psych/background checks every few months. Those are just ideas; No other developed country in the world has this problem. We need to do something.

You'd be the first in line for a chip implanted in your body so they can track where you are at all times too I guess.

Give away the 2nd and they'll take another. Slippery slope.
Guns are here, can't make them magically disappear now.
Mental health is the issue and parenting.

Man that stuff about taking pot head's guns away really got Mick rattled.

One of the reasons they allow people to sign up for weed cards is so they can know who's doing it and track them accordingly. Anyone who signs up for a weed card is basically exposing themselves. It's not that hard to conclude.
Plus there is the added benefit that they're keeping people high and 'dumb' so they're easier to manipulate.

Why wouldn't they try to take things away from this select group...

I’m not advocating taking guns away. I love mine! I’m just providing some solutions I’ve heard. I don’t see the harm in at least trying something; I don’t really believe in the slippery slope argument. Let’s compare how many times we’ve tried to overthrow a tyrannical government versus the number of people who have died because of gun violence.

Nothing is going to stop a sicko with mental health issues from causing harm to people. In other countries with tight gun law they're running vehicles into crowds and attacking people with knifes, machetes and shit.

@JurisDictum - I agree this all could be a play to disctract the public. One of the oldest prime examples is The Olympics, designed to distract the Greek public from issues. In America we also have the superbowl. Played by players of race to distract the country from issues.

Nothing is going to stop a 'mentally fit' - but evil-intentioned - person from killing/harming people if they really want to... except an opposing force at the time the act ensues. Criminals don't obey laws, let alone laughable 'gun free zones'. Instead, the vast amount of recent evidence suggests that they target them.

I urge you to not think of "slippery slope" when it comes to governments becoming tyrannical, it has been 100% historical FACT that ALL GOVERNMENTS become tyrannical.

Its not a 'it could happen' its a, the reason the bill of rights exists is because it ALWAYS HAPPENS 100% OF THE TIME.

Now, if you REALLY are concerned about gun deaths, and 80% of the gun deaths come from black neighborhoods (yay for CDC studies which are clearly allowed!) why are you against racial profiling and increased police presence in those areas? We could save the lives of hundreds of thousands of kids, by arresting thousands of bad kids.

But instead you want to tackle solutions that are

1. unconstitutional.
2. are designed to stop the shooting of white people (1% of shooting deaths in amercia).
3. punish law abiding citizens while leaving gun violence as prolific in neighborhoods of predominantly People of Color the way it is.

When you democrats ask, "why do black people vote republican?" its becuse the laws that your side fights for, makes lives for middle class white people better, but tramples on the rights of people of color.

Because they don't have that kind of power. Power is contextual. You might be able to name who gets fucked on the next big trade agreement, but that doesn't mean your can stop you 16 year old daughter from having sex with a Mexican gangster necessarily.

Potheads don't get guns is a nonstarter. It's a proposal designed to distract -- not to seriously be implemented.

Edit: I also don't like all this tracking shit -- but we are all being tracked all the time these days. If they really want a good distraction from the economy start a privacy movement....but I doubt the elites want that.
