Well I hate to say it, maybe we need background checks before someone can pick up a club. Damn, another reason to call the congress critters.

ahoy Templar Kormac,

i find stories 'o folks defendin' themselves with firearms heartenin', me bucko.

then again, i find stories 'o folks havin' thar lives cut short sorta disheartenin'....hmmmf.

Two teen boys in this coastal city were charged with murder Friday, accused in the fatal shooting of a 13-month-old boy who was in a stroller being pushed by his mother.
Aided by a description and a check of school attendance records to determine who was not in classes Thursday, officers searched for the young suspects and took them into custody, police said.

The mother told reporters the shooting occurred when one youth demanded money.

so ye have good stories, on one hand...and not-so-good stories on the other.

the important thing be to cleave to the narrative that best suits yer worldview, i guess.

aye?

Hooray for legal handguns! Kudos to the couple!


Had they not been armed, they'd likely be dead and the perp on the loose.

 

[buckeye45_73]

better get that guy a background check!!!!!!!! of course the intruder didnt have one!

 

[Lakhota]

Good for him? Was his gun legal?

 

[Missouri_Mike]

Good for him? Was his gun legal?

Pretty sure being attacked with a bat wasn't legal so why the f*ck would you focus on the gun?

Because the OP is lying about "people wanting to ban guns left and right".

Fuck you Lakhota. Go troll someone elses thread. Yes the gun was legal.

How do you know the gun was legal? Got any "credible" proof?

Right, so Dianne Fienstein doesn't count huh?

Dianne Feinstein? Hell, we can't even get universal background checks passed - so how can anyone in Congress ban guns?

All Obama has to do is sign an executive order, just like he does with a lot of other stuff.

And while you're here. Any more irrelevant posts will be reported to the moderators. You have purposefully hijacked this thread and is a violation of "Zone 2" rules:

"Zone 2": Political Forum / Israel and Palestine Forum / Race Relations/Racism Forum: Baiting and polarizing OP's (Opening Posts), and thread titles risk the thread either being moved or trashed.

Am I clear?

I'm glad he had the gun, legal or not. I'm sure he is too.

True, but how he got the gun is just as important.....Bloods and crips dont go to Walmart for weapons.

ahoy Buckeye45,

'course thats true enough, matey. i figure gun control (or lack thereof) be a different topic.

as far as i could see, the general cut 'o the OP's jib was that legal gun ownership can save someone's life - and the police generally aren't on hand the moment mortal peril comes 'a callin'...so god bless the 2nd amendment.

...and i can get behind that sentiment.

i just was thinkin' that fer every heartwarmin' story involvin' an american protectin' themselves with firearms, thar also be stories that have less happy endings.
