This one is for the gun grabbers. Explain this.

[Frankeneinstein]

Wyoming has more guns per capita than any other state. They have open carry, and you do not need a permit to carry concealed. Yet the crime rate is 40 percent less than the national average, with some cities well below that. Some of them are among the safest places to live in America. So, if guns are the problem, as you believe, why aren't people being gunned down in the streets?

Ever been to Wyoming? Ever driven across the state? I've been all over that state because I loved riding all through it on a motorcycle when I was younger. And, I can tell you that there are places there where you can drive for up to an hour before you see another person, car, or house. It is VERY sparsely populated out there.

Less people equals less crime.

Less people equals less crime.

population size has no bearing at all on percentage

population density does.

then stop blaming the guns

I live in a small town. It has one of the higher crime rates in the country. We have 180,000 people in an area of over 500 square miles. But we have a high crime rate. Low population density, high crime. As you can see population density does NOT matter.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

I have got a little concerned when I wake up at 2 AM and hear fully automatic gunfire. What, we NEED guns to protect US from idiots from guns? Well, call me simple, but wouldn't it be easier to just ban guns altogether rather than try keeping them out of the hands of irresponsible mentally ill feebs and criminals? Please, our founding fathers had muzzle loading flintlocks for hunting, not machine guns meant to slaughter human beings. The second amendment was about muzzle loaders, not machine guns.

Those muzzle loaders were military grade weapons back then. Our founding fathers wanted us to be as well armed as the military. Not possible today, but you get the idea. Anyway, as was mentioned earlier, there is no way to keep guns from getting into the hands of criminals. The only option left is to remove the criminals. Do you know the real reason for crime rates going up? It's because criminals do not fear punishment. We are too soft on them. They commit a crime, go to prison and learn how to be a better criminal, get out and commit more crimes. I'm all for a law that would require the death penalty for any crime involving a firearm. It may seem harsh, but it would definitely solve the problem. After all. When's the last time you saw a dead person commit a crime?

Before we could do that we'd have to improve the death penalty. Last guy we fried was sentenced to death over 18 years ago. Capital punishment is no deterrent that way.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Total bullshit and so illogical that it's creepy how small a mind a person has to have to believe this nonsense , then to realise that the people who believe this garbage are the ones that own the guns in this country is really scary. This hate driven right wingers have all the guns and if they wanted to have their hatred take over this country faster then it does now , they got the guns. I would never want one of these creeps in my neighborhood. They are dangerous.

Unfortunately, we need our guns because of Democrats. If we ever decided to get rid of guns, we'd have to get rid of Democrats first. Since that can't be done (Lord knows we've tried) we have to be armed because Democrats are very violent people.

If I have to strap on my gun to go to the store at night to pickup some lunchmeat, do you think I do so because I'm afraid a Republican might hold up the place, whack me over the head and take my wallet? Of course not. Republicans don't do those kinds of things--Democrats do.

Or if I have to go to the ATM at night. Do you think I'm worried that a conservative might wedge between my car and the machine and force me to take out as much money as I can? No, no, no. Conservatives don't do that--liberals do things like that.

So you see, as long as we have Democrats, we need to have guns.

 

[RWNJ]

"Before we could do that we'd have to improve the death penalty. Last guy we fried was sentenced to death over 18 years ago. Capital punishment is no deterrent that way."

There is an easy way to do this. First, no one will be put to death unless there are two credible witnesses, or DNA evidence. Second, no appeals. Two witnesses or DNA evidence is a slam dunk. No appeals necessary. From the time they are charged to the time they are executed should be no longer than twelve months. Finally, all executions should be televised. Violent crime is the result of a very small percentage of the population. If we get rid of these people, violent crime would all but disappear.

Cowboys generally work for their money and don't have to rob and kill for it like inner city shitheads.

It is not a gun that commit a crime. It is the criminal. The blue states are full of criminals. All the gun laws in the world isn't going to stop any crime. We see that every night and every weekend in Chicago.

Speaking of blue states and crime...

That crime in the red states are centered in the big cities shitholes like Houston, Atlanta, Miami, Memphis, Dallas etc, which all are Moon Bat strongholds with Democrat leadership.

It's fewer people. Not less. And you're wrong. It's fewer blacks equals less crime. The cities with the highest crime rates have large black populations and are run by Democrats. That's a fact.

All you ever have is bullshit, non stop bullshit. There's been many many hundreds of people executed in the last 18 years, There was 100 people put to death 18 years ago on just that one year.You bullshitter. One execution was just a few days ago. Facts always get in your way don't they, in fact you never make a point with facts, lies work way better for you , don't they bang bang. Or maybe your making the point that it isn't whether they execute them or not , it's all on how long they wait to get executed. If that's the case then your just a idiot but you can forget the rest.

gun bubbas? dude, liberals are doing the bulk of the killing, it is so bad in liberal areas that the left is blatantly willing to give up and violate our constitution to try and prevent their voters from killing each other off...prior to the 60's when liberalism infected America there was no gun problem, and where liberalism is rejected in America there is no gun problem...but like everything else liberal, when failure threatens their position they blame America.

This is his Remark from a few post back it's from bootney, it has many of us rolling on the floor , I'll quote him QUOTE "In modern America, in order to suppress an inalienable right, all one has to do is simply round up people willing to abuse that right and BOMB, " I simply told this baby that he doesn't know what Inalienable means. Poor puppy is peeing down his own leg now and I can't get him to wag his tail at me anymore.

[Skull Pilot]

You don't think he would of if he could? That's the point I'm making.

You people are complete idiots there is no threat to the second amendment , there are just a lot regulations that need to be added. Tell me how there is a threat to the 2nd when I can buy and own and shoot a Machine gun and buy and shoot a piece of artillery with shells to put in my front yard on display. You are all idiots.

You can buy a gun in New York, after jumping through countless legal hoops and paying through the nose for it, but you cannot get a concealed carry permit, and there is no open carry. In other words, you have to keep it in your home where it's no use to you if you're not there. The criminals know this, which is why New York has such a high crime rate. Now, if you allowed people to carry those guns, the crime rate would drop. Do you deny this? Please say yes. I could use a good laugh.

Total nonsense , there is zero threat from the left as far as the 2nd is concerned , the only threat is from the gun Bubba's that think that there can't be regulations or shouldn't be regulations to something as lethal as a gun. The people will get so pissed off at these stupid comments about guns from the gun Bubba's that they will go after the 2nd to shut these half wits up.

Like most gun grabbers you are ignorant about gun grabbing.....the gun grabbers have gone to the courts, they don't want to lose elections for anti gun votes....

Well I may know little about guns but I sure the hell know more then you do, what a clown.

You obviously know nothing about guns so it really is a good thing you don't have any

 

[Skull Pilot]

When the 2nd amendment was added muskets shot one bullet. Out founders never imagined people would have automatic weapons killing hundreds in a matter of minutes..
It definitely needs a huge overhaul to adjust to modern times.

You think the 2nd amendment is sacred but want to restrict the 1st amendment.
Imagine that.

Most conservatives are indeed inconsistent in their understanding of citizens’ rights and protected liberties.

The current administration’s contempt for a free press, for example.

Pity conservatives don’t defend the right to privacy, the right to vote, and the right to equal protection of the law as vigorously as they do the right to keep and bear arms.

Contempt for the press does nothing to hinder the first amendment does it?

People have had contempt for the press since there has been a press

For example

Good post. Let me add: if you are a parent, you sometimes have to take a toy away from your child because they start abusing them. It isn't the toy that is at fault. There is a weird group-think mania that takes something to a different level. Some adults often act like children, and they need to have their toys taken away. Guns aren't the problem, in the hands of rational people. But it's the irrational ones that easily end up with guns, that are the problem. So maybe it's better if none of us had guns. I have no problem with that.

So if your kid breaks a window with his baseball you take away all the baseballs of all the kids in the country?

Okay, so let's say you are a single woman living alone, and a man breaks into your home with a knife and every intent on using it against you. How would you defend yourself against that attacker if you are a 60 year old woman; get in a knife fight with a strong 22 year old male?

There is no such thing as "nobody having a gun" than there is nobody having heroin or cocaine. It isn't possible, especially in this country.

We are debating a southern wall and the anti-wall people are saying it won't stop illegals and it won't stop drugs. But somehow, making guns illegal would stop guns. Can anybody explain the dynamics of each situation?

Good point. We all will die, most in unpreventable ways. And a gun or lack there of will play no part in our demise. Accidents, diseases or old age. So what's the big deal if we have one less thing out there to add to our worries?

Lol, well.......I think you would feel differently if something like that happened to you. When a nut is coming after you to slit your throat, I doubt you would be thinking "Oh well, we all have to die sometime!"

It's like I've said in this forum and in others like it. If you really don't think that legal gun ownership protects you, then get a huge sign made that says WE HAVE NO FIREARMS IN THIS HOUSE, put that sign on your front porch, and see how that works out for you. Because one of the reasons you are safer is because you could be armed, and the criminal doesn't know if you are or not.

By making firearms illegal, it's no different than hanging that sign on your front porch. Every criminal would know that the people in all their homes have no way of protecting themselves. And since there is no way to disarm the criminal, he has the advantage over you, and that's something I would hate to see happen.

Thank you for your concern. But I have been in mortal peril three times because of people WITH guns, not in spite of. And if I had had a firearm, it would have made things worse, I was better off without. I like guns, but I believe we can do without them as a culture.

You can believe whatever you want you just can't force anyone else to believe it.


As I have said before I carry a firearm for self defense and the defense of my wife. NO ONE ELSE. I am of the mind that since you have chosen not to arm yourself if I saw you getting mugged by a guy with a gun I would not draw my weapon to intervene. I respect your choice to abdicate the right to defend yourself and to trust government agencies to be responsible for your safety. I am not a cop don't want to be a cop so I will not draw my weapon for any other reason than to defend myself or my wife. I will respect your decision to leave your safety in the hands of government law enforcement and I will call the cops and an ambulance for you and hope that they get there before you get beaten raped or killed
