Screw gun bans and registration, sounds like me need to have people take a test on gun safety before they can purchase a gun. :roll:
Very sad. Those parents do not know how to safely keep a gun in the home. I am not saying take it away from them, but they are obviously not responsible enough to own one.

You can spend your time alone, redigesting past regrets, oh
or you can come to terms and realize
you're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh
makes much more sense to live in the present tense - Present Tense

Kat? :P
If the parents (or gunowners in general) are irresponsible, how can you justify not taking it away from them? Your last paragraph contradicts itself.
I'd apply the same logic to driving, raising children, having a dog/cat, etc.
Yeah,I guess it sounds contradictory. lol
But, if I would have said "take it away", my head would've been bit off by some nut cases. :roll: And today I am not in an arguing mood.

I second the motion. Gun issues have become an entity in-of-itself. Today, more popular even than Jesus.

I bet if the gun wasn't available, that 4 year old would have likely dragged the 6 year old into a car, drove to a high rise building, went up to the top floor and pushed him into the garbage shoot, huh?

"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
or not :fp:
Is this the best you could do?
Come to think of it, it likely is. Good effort.
don't be upset that you in the minority.
Huh? Good try again.
They are legal, and they aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
It's a shame this kid had irresponbile parents. It's a shame there are nut jobs out there. Feel free to do back ground checks on peeps... i'm cool with that.....but don't think guns are going away.
cheers.
I think you would have to admit the gun argument is weighted heavily towards gun reform.
I would agree with you that the guns we speak of likely aren't going anywhere anytime soon. This is reality.
Completely agree with your third comment as well.
Cheers to you as well.
not really sure what you mean by "lost the gun argument". seems to me the issue is still a hot one, which means the argument isn't over by a long shot.
and even if what you say is true, doesn't mean we should give up. If Abe Lincoln had given up his argument, where would your country be today?

Government wants to enslave us and we need to be prepared.
Bad guys will get us.
A really old document says I can have whatever gun I choose.
Pro gun reform argument:
11,000 deaths per year are too many.
Other progressive countries have undergone such an initiative and have experienced dramatic results.
Not seeking to get rid of all guns. Just the military grade ones.
Wanting to design and implement registry and background checks to try and keep guns from falling in the wrong hands.
If one was to be objective, I think one side obliterates the other with regards to an argument.
These are the prevalent points pushed forward in this debate.
i thought it was about eliminating assault weapons and increasing background checks on ownership? ... i can't believe anyone would want to side with a group like the NRA ... they are like the westboro baptist church ... so wrapped up in their own delusions that they can't see the absurdity in their beliefs ...
Regardless, I am sick of hearing about these tragedies. What's the solution? Prosecuting parents? The parents were right there in the side yard! They're not going to ban guns... But there's got to be some solution here. Mandatory lock up of personal items and keeping them unloaded?
At least CT has enough sense to put new laws into effect and this argument is far from over , we the minority as you call the Anti assault weapons folks are not in the minority here on this forum you are the one in the minority . We are sick of gun violence go ahead go and play with your guns .....
