but yet that under 30 male can go fucking die on some battlefield in some 3rd world shithole so people like you can bitch and moan .....great post Zeke.....
You trying to make some sort of point? What is it. That you are such a fucked up person that you have no interest at all in reducing gun violence. Just come out and say that and quit wasting time.
It is fucking idiots like you that will not consider ANY steps to curtail gun violence that will ultimately cause gun restrictions that even I won't like.
You stupid fuck. If some young man wants to learn the proper way to handle himself and weapons, let them join the military. You got a problem with joining the military? Or you like it that crazy young men with bad attitudes can easily buy guns?
What the fuck is wrong with you? Maybe 15 year old kids should be able to buy guns? Show me in the COTUS where it requires people to be a certain age BEFORE they can buy a gun.
Are you so fucking crazy about guns that NO restrictions should be in place? Sounds like it.
Do you want to reduce gun violence in this country or not? Simple question.
I think there is a legitimate issue with young men being able to be dropped in some 3rd world hell hole to fight (with automatic weapons) but when they come home they can't go hunting or target shooting without an escort. Whether you and Harry want to trim back the name calling and sensationalism long enough to discuss it remains to be seen.
I do believe that hunting would die out completely if those under 30 could not own a firearm.
So that's what you want to focus on eh? The fact that a very small percentage of the population (men in the service under that age of 30) wouldn't have as easy access to weapons outside of the military.
You ever bother to look at the demographics of gun violence? Who is it that commits the most crazy shootings? You've never bothered to look have you. Mostly it is men under the age of 30. Unbridled aggression., to much testosterone, to little good common sense.
But you all are so concerned with the military age men having guns. Suicide rate still going up in the military? WOW some soldier having problems won't be able to so easily kill themselves if they can't easily buy a gun.
Might ever keep one of them alive. But you aren't interested in that. They might want to go hunting. Of course they still could.
Hunting die out? You're shitting me. I know three men who are in tree stands right now. None of the three are close to 30. How could that be? You think people over 30 don't want to eat? Come on you are really stretching it there.
Just come out and say it. You are scared that if there is one reasonable restriction on guns to reduce gun violence, there would be precedent for trying other ideas. And that's what really scares you. There might be other good ideas to follow.
There it is. You gun lovers have been saying for decades that no restrictions will work But you don't know cause they haven't been tried. And if they did work and reduced gun violence, what would you all say then?
Hey, according to your numbers, there were 273 DGU YESTERDAY. How do you confirm that number?
273 x 365 = 99,999.
Jeez, take a breath, willya?
Yes, hunting could die out quite easily with the restrictions you want. Did I say it would end immediately? No, that is not even close to what I said. Does the phrase "die out" sound like a sudden thing or a gradual one? But the simple fact is that if hunting is relegated to only those over 30 or those accompanied by someone over 30, the number of young hunters will be virtually nil. And in a few years.........?
As for the soldiers committing suicide, I have yet to see anything that shows a lack of firearms means someone who truly wants to commit suicide will not do it. It really is a stretch to say it would change the suicide rates.
And I will not say that I am scared of reasonable restrictions. I am not. This idea that you anti-gun folks have that someone is either on your side or they are scared of any changes or restrictions is nuts. I am open to dialogue about guns. But this "DO IT MY WAY OR ADMIT YOU ARE SCARED!!!" tact is simply ridiculous. I have tried to engage you in conversations numerous times, and you always resort to either ridicule or name calling. Is that really the way you want to hold a discussion? Sad.
What is there to "discuss"? You are making bullshit claims. ie hunting will die out.
Did you ever answer my question as to who commits most of the crazy shooting in this country. No you ignored that. Even though it is men under the age of 30. If you are gonna deny that stat, what's to talk about. It's the truth you are denying.
Did you ever answer my question as to how DGU info is collected? No.
These are legit questions that should be discussed. You refuse. Again, what is to talk about?
Maybe you just want to stick with recreational shooting. Resolving problems don't seem to be your "thang".
Or is the fact that young men under 30 account for most of the crazy shootings not really a problem?
You present your version of the "facts" and I ask questions and offered a possible solution. We aren't discussing anything.
I did not question the fact that men under 30 are the overwhelming cause of gun violence. I did indeed answer your question about how DGU info is collected. And I am happy to discuss issues with you, the moment to stop trying to make every gun buff sound like a racist fear monger.
