Man, you are a nut. Yes, there are many who wish to put gun makers out of business by allowing people who have been shot to sue the gun maker. Where have you been? And those same types of folks are trying to make it illegal to own an Armalite Rifle, which is not automatic and is not a assault rifle.
Just checking in to let you know that if you read the post I quoted, we don't really disagree. The trick is finding better ways to keep guns from a majority of those with ill intent, which we both agree is the problem. We are arguing semantics and I'm not doing it anymore. Pretty much everything else we've both been saying is in sync. So I'll leave it at that.
You said that my having guns makes it "easier for people to break the law."
If you have read my posts I am not for criminals/crazies having guns. I have never argued against making it harder for criminals to get firearms. Check yourself.
Please explain your post below how my guns make it easier for people to break the law:
I would like to have a intelligent discussion about the horrible shooting that occurred today in Boulder, Co. No politics allowed.
No but if the owner of the lambo decided to do 180 down I26 he could kill you if you were in front of him...he would have chosen to operate his car in an illegal fashion and you would be a innocent casualty on your way to a nice wkd in Charleston. And that Lambo is registered and required to...southcarolina.forums.rivals.com
How do my having guns make it easier for people to break the law? I'll wait for a response.
I think gun owners should be responsible for who they sell a gun to. As I have stated before in this thread, there should be a way to meet at the Sheriff's office to have a person to person background check performed before a private sale is completed.
There is a link to the reply where you say exactly that...look at it for yourself...I have not refused anything...are you not reading my replies?
The argument is that most gun owners are responsible laws abiding citizens (which I won’t discount) but that criminals often end up with stolen guns. So now you have to question how responsible someone is to have their gun stolen?

I guess I thought you were smart enough to follow the statement I made which harkened back to your suggestion about keeping guns out of certain folks hands, that’s all. That is problematic to do constitutionally.
It would be a good thing until it wasn't. A national registry should never be a thing. Local registries absolutely.
How responsible would you be if someone broke into your house and stole a family heirloom? I would think that would not be your fault... If someone breaks the law breaking into your house, you want the owner to be at fault? I'm not following...
No I got it. But until we have time travel or mind reading that's just a joke, and I would certainly never suggest it as a serious idea.
All of my guns have been purchased at a store so SLED has a record (registry if you want to call it that) of my guns. I have no problem with that. Why? Because I am not a criminal lol...
My thought was that until such extreme measures (unconstitutionally) are used, they really is no way to do such. There have been thoughts of predictor scoring already bandied about. That is where it gets concerning. It is also a part of our Personhood score which is about to be rolled out in the states. That is scary.No I got it. But until we have time travel or mind reading that's just a joke, and I would certainly never suggest it as a serious idea.
I’m not saying they should be at fault for any crimes committed with use of the fire arm but if your gun is in an unlocked console of an unlocked car then you aren’t being responsible. We hear all the time about people who have GPS or laptops or purses stolen from their cars that they are at fault for leaving the items in there so what is the difference? If you are irresponsible when it comes to some items then that same logic would apply to everything.
The US Supreme Court, currently composed of a majority of justices appointed by Republican presidents, recently determined that gun
I would agree and if you don’t do the items above it should have some penalty attached. I used this example because there are countless stories of stolen guns being used and the owners not reporting it then claiming they either didn’t know or thought they just misplaced it. At that point you’ve proven yourself to be irresponsible.
I had typed a long response explaining how they're different, but this venue isn't the one to change minds, so I decided to delete it. If you say they'll be the same, then you believe that and I'm done with that line at this point. I'm trying to disengage.
No. Lack of enforcement of EXISTING laws makes it easier. You are placing blame on innocent law abiding citizens, much like politicians in their rush to “do something”
Done. ThxI had typed a long response explaining how they're different, but this venue isn't the one to change minds, so I decided to delete it. If you say they'll be the same, then you believe that and I'm done with that line at this point. I'm trying to disengage.
How about you beat the rush and just move to Australia since that is what you want for the US.
