Summations Only

You might be better of providing your answers to the people who have asked you questions about guns. I am done with you.

From the CNN article Really? There is some serious doubt about whether we ought not let a 9 year old handle an UZI? How bizarre.

So what, in your opinion, would be reasonable gun control regulation?

What in the hell is the basis for blaming this crap on gun control fanatics? Faith, you are a piece of work.

Total nonsense.Open carry is not unusual because of gun control fanatics. People in general stopped carrying guns around more than a century ago unless they were going somewhere where they intended to do some shooting.Further, you blame the police not knowing the law on somebody other than the police. Really, Faith. That police department's lack of training after the legislature passes a law is to be blamed on gun control fanatics?How about some evidence? Because the crap you are spouting here is counter intuitive.Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

Wrong.I don't have any respect for uniformed and incorrect opinions, and none is due. And the idea that I have to respect someone's negative opinion of other responsible people is ridiculous.Gun advocates don't have any monopoly on being law abiding. I've given reasons for why I think your opinion is complete crap. Didn't see any rebuttal from you.Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

What's your real name and address?

You cannot read. I did not accuse you of saying any such thing.

"Someone's negative opinion of other responsible people?"That's what I did say, yes. I called your opinion of gun control advocates negative. Your opinion is disrespectful to large number of gun control advocates, but you think I must respect your disrespect. Nope. That's not logical. What's the law on open carry in schools in your area? Is a person doing open carry in a school a law abiding citizen? Would I be uninformed if I called the police in the situation you described?

The Gun-Free School Zones Act (GFSZA) is a federal United States law that prohibits any unauthorized individual from knowingly possessing a firearm at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone as defined by 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(25)

Get informed.

What's your real name and address?I can keep this up as long as you want.

If that's what you are saying then no I don't have respect for your opinion.But what you actually stated was that reacting to a person carrying a rifle in a school hallway by calling the police is unreasonable. You claimed that people would be screaming Well given that the practice is illegal, the police ought to be called. I have even less respect for your opinion it that case.We haven't lived with guns as we did in the 1800s for quite some time. If re-introducing guns surprises the police, well, then they weren't paying attention when the laws changed. It's their (the police) fault.

You are going to have to demonstrate this. I don't believe people routinely brought guns to schools even in the 1960s. Let's look at what you actually said. Yeah, looks exactly like an indictment of people today. But the truth is that the cause is not an irrational fear of guns, but the knowledge that the person coming down the hall is not a law abiding citizen. There is no gun range in the basement.The idea of having a gun range in a school basement seems a bit silly anyway. What's wrong with shooting ranges?

I'm well aware that some gun nuts believe that gun control advocates are afraid of guns. Well regardless of whether I'm willing to give you personal information regarding whether I currently have any guns at my house, I can tell you that as a former military officer, I've carried guns rountinely and that at one time I was a pretty good shot with a 9 mm as well as with an M-16. I highly doubt that I am an great shakes with either anymore.In any event, I'm not playing your silly game, Coyote and I don't give a hoot about the people who assume an answer and question my advocacy because of it.

Okay. I concede the point. Surely there are some JROTC programs that have marksmanship programs even now. I'll bet that the guns don't manage to meander down the school hallways in those schools. Which is a more reasonable statement than to just call gun control advocates zealots who cause the police not to understand the law. I don't agree with your opinion, but at least it's not just an indictment of people who want reasonable gun control measures. Gun advocates ascribe all types of motivations, emotions, and reasons to people who advocate gun control. For the most part, its not worthwhile to engage the more zealot arm of the gun advocate position in a discussion.And there are lots of distinct reasons for why states do not have open carry. Texas law, for example dates back from reconstruction. Blaming gun control zealots for open carry not being the norm in situations like that is ridiculous.Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

So you would support background checks that would be needed to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill? Would all mentally ill people be banned from having weapons? What about families with a mentally ill family member?
