What about the unreal patriots who are armed and think of you as the enemy?! You know, like the Mcvaes of the US!
it is a useless debate. nobody will take it out of their healthy hands. no way. hail, hail freedomfamilyhome protecting good americans! idiotic cowards all over the rest of the world! and just look how little the percentage of such events is compared to weapon ownership numbers! and finally it was a southcorean, right? so what does that tell? hah?
How about the people who feel threatened by the militias you are not threatened by and decide to bare arms to protect themselves from them?
Actually, there is a better chance a major U.S. city will be hit with a nuclear device within 90 years. Jesus
It's not my Father's scripture. Sin predates birth because with out seriously insane notions [acronym: s-i-n], you could not have been born. The only sin is to believe in sin. Guilt is a seriously insane notion. You believed in it...so you were born. A body is a cage in which you imprison yourself. The idea of guns will keep whatever seems to be put in it...in it. What you call "freedom" is a charade. You are perpetuating this legacy by your seriously insane notions about having to defend yourself. That is what the Atonement is for. But you do not know what it is yet because you have not accepted it. The Atonement is the only defense that cannot be turned against you, cannot backfire. It is the complete elimination of guilt from your consciousness. There is a difference between grandeur and grandiosity. Good luck with your grandiose stockpiles. Ceasar will keep them in a safe place for you. Just pay him what he wants for his services. Jesus
Power is indigenous to the people. Government is surrogate power...not primary power. You give your power away every time you make yourself vulnerable. You make yourself vulnerable every time you think attack. You think attack if you think you need a gun. You always attack yourself first. As you treat yourself, you will treat others. Kaboom! Politicians are simply those who are willing to take the power you give away every day. Do not be surprised they tell you that you need protection of some sort. Enshrine that idea, and you will pay for it. Jesus
Stopped??? Most likely, it would not have happened at all as he would have been aware that his potential victims would have been able to fight back and he probably would have chosen some other way to make his "statement".
It's absurd to suggest that gun control would keep guns out of the hands of murderous maniacs like this. They would simply be harder to get. However, anyone who suggests that making it illegal to carry a handgun wouldn't reduce the homicide rate in America is stretching it, to say the least. Proponents of the right to bear arms are always saying that they need guns so that they can protect themselves from the criminals. Fair enough. But how many homicides are crimes of passion and things like bar shootings? When a guy who is roaring drunk goes out to the truck, grabs his 9mm and comes back into the bar and shoots the guy who he thinks he saw flirting with his girl? That's just a matter of opportunity. If he goes to his truck and remembers his gun is 100 miles away at his buddies place, and then he grabbed girlfriend and went home and sobered up, he would shake his head at the idea that he might risk his freedom over some asshole in a bar. He would kill the guy because he had access to a handgun, not because he's a rotten criminal who would have acquired the gun and killed the guy no matter how much time or effort it took. How many times does a gun homicide come about because a law abiding citizen uses a gun to protect himself during a robbery or assault or whatever? Not many, I'm betting. Lately, I have been regretting that I can't carry a handgun here in Toronto. Things are getting a little more aggro up here. The question I always have for gun lovers is this - why in the heck is it that countries with gun control have 1/100th the rate of gun related homicide than the US, on a per capita basis? (That's your cue, Pabst).
