20 children hospitalized each day with gun injuries

[Spiderman]

Why are accidental gun injuries more egregious than any other accidental injury?

There are far more children hurt and killed accidentally by many other means than there are by guns.

Shouldn't you people maybe start at the top of the list and work your way down?

When children were injured in car accidents....we required car seats
When children were poisoned by prescription drugs.....we required child safe caps
When children fell out of windows....we required window shields

Why should we refuse to do anything when children are injured by guns?

Kids still fall out of windows kids still get in killed in car accidents kids still die by poisoning

If all these laws did not stop any of the above which by the way all outnumber accidental gun deaths what law would you enact to stop the accidental shootings of kids

And what if a person has no kids?

And you know the gun nutters argument is weak and shaky when all they can do is bring up cars and shopping carts and any fucking thing else they can come up with.

Anything to deflect from the problem. Anything. As long as they are not forced to recognize their complicity in the killing of kids.

Funny your kind doesn't care how many babies are killed daily through abortio Let me tell you. It's aliot more than 20.

Yes, 20 kids a day (3 kids a day under 14) go to hospitals for gunshot wounds. Many of those live or were murder targets or suicide attempts.

Over 3K kids a day are aborted, mostly for the mother's convenience.

Government must suspend the Constitution to stop the former, and make up a non-existent Constitutional right for the latter.

Suuurrreeeee their issue is "children."

You want an epidemic? 66 kids a day go to the hospital because of shopping carts. Where is the outrage? The demand for more restrictive laws on the manufacture and use of shopping carts?

Shopping cart injuries send 66 kids to nation?s ERs each day, study finds ? Health ? Bangor Daily News ? BDN Maine

Nope.

Guns provide no other service to society. Those other items do.

So everything you own provides a service to society?

I think allowing a person to carry a weapon to defend himself is a service to that individual.

You seem to forget that our government is based on the idea of individual rights not societal rights.

Guns keep us safe........the kids are just incidental damage

Pools keep us cool the drownings are just collateral damage.

Not only that, but have you ever seen how liberals look at women who smoke when they are pregnant?

Funny aren't they?

They fight for a womens right to choose what she can do with her own body. You would think they would celebrate a woman choosing to smoke while pregnant. I mean, are they saying smoking cigarettes is worse for the baby's health than a suction vacuum being shoved up there?

They say the woman has ALL of the rights of unborn baby. Of course, to them they are not a baby. They are a zygote. That is all, even though we have clearly proven that a baby in at least the 3rd trimester can indeed feel pain, has expressions on their face like smiling, and actually instinctively avoids any probe that is inserted. Let alone the vacuum or syringe that is poked in there.

I wonder if they would allow me to post photos of the babies after they are aborted after that 3rd trimester. I wonder what they would say after they see their little mutilated bodies. Oh, I am sorry. Did not mean to offend any liberals. They are not babies. They are "zygotes." These pieces of shit cannot even compromise the notion that the 3rd trimester ought to be illegal. At least if the woman's health is not at stake. No, they will not hear anything of it.


Yet, they go ape shit over a woman that smokes while pregnant.

Their double talk, their hypocrisy, their utter bullshit knows no end.

Pools keep us cool the drownings are just collateral damage.

Oh, don't get me started on the pool debate.

Had a fight with my in-laws because they wanted me to put a fence around my in-ground pool before they came to visit with their grandchildren.

I told them it was the job of them and the parents to watch the rugrats or not to come.

They came once, haven't seen them since. Been over 10 yrs.

I call that a win.

Socialist has everything to do with it. You recognize clearly that the best way to protect your beloved government is to have yet another government controlled monopoly. Guns.

This doesn't make sense no matter how many times you read it. Give it a try.

Hmm...overnment is safest when government is the only one with guns. What exactly do you find confusing about that statement?

The confusing part is no one is proposing that "government is the only one with the guns".

You seem to forget that we are a civilized society not a bunch of nomads who get to do what we please at any cost.

Pools aren't designed to cause violence. Fail.

Using these tired comparisons just makes the person typing them look like an idiot.

Even if banning guns to some extent saved 20 childrens lives, it would be a good thing. Nobody can deny that.

Their goal is not protecting children, it's eliminating guns. So they are doing that, they are just using a different list.

If there was a fingerprint scanner on the bottom of the gun handle, and you needed to use the scan to make it work for say, 24 hours, then guns that children find wouldn't be armed (by the scanner), and therefore wouldn't fire. Stolen guns would be useless as well because they wouldn't work without the fingerprint being scanned. Nobody is talking about eliminating guns altogether, that's a NRA strawman argument.

ABSOLUTELY!!!

And exactly what about a law abiding citizen owning a gun or carrying a gun makes them uncivilized?

So leaving millions of people who own guns defenseless in the face of a violent attack id OK because 20 parents didn't do the right thing by their kids?

Sorry Boyo but it's not my job to take care of your or anyone else's kids.

 

[Spiderman]

Spidey, what about my fingerprint scanner idea? Is it fucking awesome or what?

Not really.

Too much of a chance for failure thereby leaving a weapon useless.

And why should I have to jump through hoops because some idiot doesn't do right by his kids?

So the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, except when it comes to guns.

Got it.

Jump through hoops? Geez, you just put your thumb on the bottom of the handle, and all kids would be safe. You could even store your gun with the ammo in it, since it would need a scan to work anyways, making it faster to shoot an intruder or commit suicide or whatever.
