  1. thats not true. we spend a lot of money trying to stop drunk drivers.

    a more apt comparison would be this. if 13 people at one resturant died of food poisoning the company furnishing that product would be closed tomorrow.

    You're running out of ammo, Lukie.

  3. We spend money, but we don't punish everyone to try to stop the drunk drivers. Even minor inconveniences draw threats of lawsuits. The ACLU is currently threatening to sue the California Highway Patrol over sobriety checkpoints.

    You're completely wrong about the food poisioning. If somebody at the restaurant improperly handled the food, or a guest at the restaurant intentionally introduced poison into the food the company furnishing the food would not be held responsible.

    And we don't shut down automobile manufacturers even though people use cars to slaughter innocents every hour of every day.

    I do understand. My point is we should still be able to leave our front doors unlocked at home. We should be able to let our kids ride their bikes all over the neighborhood vs staying on the video games as we're scared of predators, etc.,

    IF we would simply thin the herd when an animal wants to hurt the rest of the herd, the herd could be safe. That simple. Some animal kills someone with a gun for no reason, and he or she meets the hangman's noose in one year of conviction, and mandatory state supreme court case review, or course.

    Oh, my bad.
    That's a good point.

    I know that was your last round, though.

    So, I am going out the ET door now and never will campaign again against the proliferation of weaponry in the USA because you all have made me a believer.
    There's nothing that can be done to stop these USA tragedies.
    And I now believe that Americans should be able to possess as many weapons, automatic or otherwise, as they wish.

    I know y'all believe this crap, right???

    (Taking a few steps down the ET hallway...then sneaking back to the "ET Gun Club" gathering...peeping around the corner as all look over as I give a "Michael Jordon" wink.......LOL)

    Later gents...Careful cleaning those weapons tonight!

    You nailed it! Yep, that's called thinning the herd so the rest can live, and be safe. Pretty common sense stuff...

  8. Keep all the guns you want I say.

    As long as they're not hand-guns, assault weapons or have, or can take, large magazines - say more than five shells.

    What would be so terrible about that? Seems fairly reasonable to me.

    You have no response but this non response, and I'm running out of ammo?


    You have a non "plan" that has no basis in fact or reality which not just myself but at least two others have pointed out. Yet you refuse to even consider it won't work. You want to limit mass murderers to a single long gun and handgun.
    I guess next you'll want to ban them from reloading during their mass shootings. Yeah, that'll work.
