Hey frako,
Sorry to hear about your dog. "You were not there for the beginning. You will not be there for the end. Your knowledge of what is going on can only be superficial and relative" William S. Burroughs

The genie has been let out of the lamp. Guns are here and here to stay. Anyone who wants one will obtain one and use it regardless of any legislation passed.
Guns will continue to kill, maim and plague our society as long as the mindset of the American public remains infatuated with them. Sad but true."You were not there for the beginning.

Yes guns are more efficient. So we should take them away from the good guys and let the bad guys have them I guess, which is what would happen in that case.

The good guys are killing folks just as much as the "bad" guys.

Did I say otherwise? I was just pointing out that guns do cause more damage than other weapons. Guns do kill where other weapons may only injure. People who have no intention to kill do kill because the gun is so powerful.
Guns are here and here to stay.

What are you comparing, good guys protecting themselves and others from bad guys with bad guys killing good guys or what? Why can't anyone make a meaningful distinction between right and wrong at this forum?

The vast majority of gun owners in America are responsible law-abiding citizens. VAST majority, millions.

So are the vast majority of Moslems. Billions.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts "God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

The vast majority are law abiding citizens, like gun owners. Why don't you stand up for their rights?

What rights don't I stand up for?
And why are you bringing that up on this thread?

More to the point: What rights NEED standing up for? I stand up for the gun owners' rights because the Politically Correct crowd are trying to take them away.
HOWEVER, I also oppose giving the right to practice a religion that has as its goal the takeover of the world and promotes murder as an acceptable method. If that's what you mean, yes, I strenuously oppose the very idea of a "right" of Islam to fulfill its goal. However, it's too late. Political Correctness has won and the mosques are biding their time until they have enough power to make you, yes you, bow to Allah and recite the prayers or lose your head. Political Correctness is always on the wrong side. Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Which of course you don't understand, because you're a typical dupe of PC who thinks murder is a perfectly reasonable tenet of a religion, just as it's the equivalent of police action against a criminal, and probably that the death penalty is murder too. I hope this stuff comes back to bite you all in the butt. Maybe it will give you a lesson in reality.
