Right wingers unrequited "love" of guns...lots of guns...

[tyroneweaver]

Perhaps the most controversial topic on these forums, is this love of guns by right wingers who must be walking around perpetually scared....or just compensating for you know what.

No other nation on earth that is not currently involved in an all-out civil war, experiences the gun violence and carnage as does the U.S.......and ANY attempt to curb the sale of more guns is met by vociferous and incessant whining by the gun slingers.....Never mind that somewhat cooler heads within the RNC have banned guns from their upcoming convention, using the somewhat lame excuse that the secret service (a part of the federal government that they so much hate) does not allow them to come to the convention armed to the teeth.

Follow their "logic" for a moment. Most of them repeatedly state that having MORE guns actually equals LESS killings or gun injuries.......That kind of reasoning is the equivalent to stating that having MORE cars on the highways equals LESS car accidents.......A cognitive failure worthy of a rather "slow" 7 year old.

And how does alcohol and driving go together

This will ALWAYS be the case with interstate travel without restriction

Da, we must restrict interstate travel to make gun bans work, eh comrade?

Inane "conclusion"....I am addressing the very fact that tons of guns make it up to NYC from someone's car trunk who was just in Virginia.

There's just too much freedom in America. Can't you libs do something about that?

You left crime out of your critical analysis. I'm sure is was just a programming error. Studies have shown that where gun laws are liberalized the crime rate goes down. That may puzzle the acorn of a brain you operate with but when people are armed there are less victims.

The bottom line is that your opinion doesn't matter and you have no control over my rights.

I want to be able to buy a gun in NYC without spending $1000 and waiting 3-6 months. Until that situation is rectified, No new laws, no new restrictions, not one step back.

So you oppose all reasonable gun control, throughout the country, that will save lives, because you don't like the laws in one city in the country. Typical right wing logic.

Considering most of what progressives propose won't save any lives, opposing them is easy.

Are you saying that no reasonable gun restrictions will save lives?

Define a "reasonable" restriction.

Why? We've had this conversation before, and you made it clear that you consider no restriction reasonable.

1. Felons can't have guns. Reasonable
2. Instant background check at point of sale. Reasonable
3. No automatic weapons without a special permit, Reasonable.

Everything else is just fluff.

How about you left wingers not worry about my guns? As long as no one tries to break into my home threaten me or my family they have nothing to fear about my gun no matter what their race, gender, or political affiliation.

I'm a left winger,and I'm not the least bit concerned about your guns if that is the way you use them. Unfortunately, lots of gun nuts want to prance around in public armed to the teeth 24/7. You can't tell me that somebody with a Rambo attitude, just hoping for a chance to shoot somebody, and carrying their own personal armory isn't endangering the public.

The ones who want that are a small minority of gun owners and open carry is something I don't support I don't speak for all gun owners but I suspect most feel the same about open carry.

I agree. The majority of Americans are in favor of reasonable gun control. Unfortunately, the NRA, who was once focused on gun safety, abandoned their reasonable goals and became nothing more than the sales wing for gun manufacturers. They push fear of a race war, or a civil war, or the fear of gun confiscation, or any number of other things that aren't going to happen as reason to end all restrictions on guns. The NRA bought our politicians.

I think you give the NRA more power than it really has nor do I feel they have the power to block any truly reasonable gun safety measures. The stuff I see put foreword are usually just feel good things that won't accomplish anything other than letting politicians check gun control off their to do list.

Was the DC and Chicago gun ban reasonable? Did it work?

 

[Skull Pilot]

I should cancel my health insurance, and car and home owners insurance, because I may never need it. This is the logic of the stupid left.

No, moron......the nuances are way over your half brain......Check with Rush or Sean before posting.

The problem with you people is you are dumb as a brick. Go iron your McDonald's uniform.

That's like telling this idiot to burn herself with an iron

 

[Skull Pilot]

Liberals claim that gun bans will save lives. Previous bans in Chicago and DC prove liberal claims were wrong.

This will ALWAYS be the case with interstate travel without restriction....Talk to Trump about building a beautiful wall surrounding Chicago and DC.

Good think you aren't appealing to emotions, like a demagogue.


Oh, wait, you completely were.

The difference (were your other half of the brain functioning) is that I am NOT the nominee of the GOP...
But "thanks" anyway for admitting that Trump and I are BOTH appealing to emotions as demagogues. LOL

Some of us are already dealing with "reasonable" gun control. If what NYC is doing to me is considered "reasonable", then no wonder gun rights people don't trust gun controllers as far as they can throw them.

Work on getting me MY rights back, then we can talk about other regulations.

Again,you want to hold off on all reasonable restrictions because you are pouting over local laws that you don't like in one town.

We currently have 20000 gun laws on the books are you saying that none of them have reasonably restricted gun ownership?

About as well as alcohol and guns. And with the same results.

Actually, NOTHING in my posts admitted that.

It is ironic that you failed to discern that while ridiculing my intelligence.


Though you have admitted that you are appealing to emotions like a demagogue.

 

[nat4900]

The respect and reverence of the founding documents are alien to you and as I gather from your previous posts throughout a span of time I suspect you are alien to the U.S. anyway, so I do not understand your concern.

Your should know (but probably do not) that all-out "reverence" of the founding documents is a bit nuts. The 13th amendment allowed for human beings (slaves) to be counted as 3/5 of a person.....If you feel that ALL of our founding documents are tantamount to tablets from Mt. Sinai, then you are a "true" right winger.

 

[nat4900]

Find a dictionary and you'd see that (maybe) that there is nothing wrong when appealing to emotions....empathy IS an appeal to emotions......The problem is when such an appeal is to encourage violence...and that is NOT what my post is about.

I love the constant use of penis references.


Tell me again how Trump is the demagogue who is appealing to peoples emotions.


Liberals: All the self awareness of a turnip.

Liberals: All the intellectual honesty of a crack whore.

Apparently liberals have such big dicks they don't really need guns.

You are aware that the 3/5ths rule, as opposed to counting them as "Full people" was a move by the abolitionists to limit the power of the Slave States with an eye to eventually ending slavery?

Correction

They are such big dicks

 

[Iceweasel]

If you think you need to be armed all the time, then obviously your controlling emotion is fear. Sorry, but I don't think living with that much fear is healthy.

Do you have a fire extinguisher? If so why are you living in such fear?

 

[BULLDOG]

No, its because the law in question is the end game for must gun control idiots.

And who told you that? Obviously you are pouting because of laws in one town, so you don't think those same laws would have been enacted by now in other towns if that was the ultimate goal?

It's obvious to anyone who doesn't wear the progressive blinders over their eyes.

NYC wants to ban guns, they went de facto instead of de jure, but the end result is the same.

Not. One. Step. back.

Again. One town.

 

[nat4900]

Considering most of what progressives propose won't save any lives, opposing them is easy.

So, you agree with my analogy of right wingers' "logic".......i.e., Having more cars prevents car accidents, as having nor guns "prevents" gun killings......makes sense?
