Hiro- False utopias work well on small minded uneducated folk. They latch on tight with both hands and won't let go. Just look at communism, some people still believe in that.
goon said:What's wrong with an emotional argument?
Is it rational, logical thinking that makes you angry when you hear about some kid getting drowned in a bathtub or some young woman getting raped?
I can tell you that it sure isn't logic that makes me think things like that are wrong. It is all emotion and I'm pefectly OK with that.
A little OT, but I still thought it needed said.

I think that rifles and shotguns for hunting (and competition and target shooting and blowing the c**p out of empty soda cans) should be readily available but that handguns should be registered.
I think that any male using a firearm in the commission of a crime should be castrated. Some people would say that there's no connection between the crime and that particular punishment but I bet you it'd be an effective deterrent. I still haven't figured out what to do about women that use a firearm in the commission of a crime.
I think that any jurisdiction that wants to restrict or ban the possession of any type, or all types, of firearms ought to be able to do so. If you don't like the restrictions, move.
I think that any firearms dealer that has a pattern of illegal arms sales should be put out of business ASAP and his ass ought to wind up in jail. Maybe the castration thing for them too.
I believe that there are a lot of people out there that ignore the "well regulated militia" part of the 2nd amendment.
I think that Wayne LaPierre is an annoying a**hole.
I think that someone should invent a trigger lock that would stop anyone from opening it if they if they were drunk. Said lock could be opened in a true emergency but then you have to destroy the gun. Your reward for using a lock like this would be something like REALLY low insurance rates or something like that.
I believe that guns don't kill people, bullets kill people, unless you club someone to death with a rifle butt.

I think that rifles and shotguns for hunting (and competition and target shooting and blowing the c**p out of empty soda cans) should be readily available but that handguns should be registered (and therefore subject to confiscation at any time).
I think that any male using a firearm in the commission of a crime should be castrated (tortured and neutered for no rational reason). Some people would say that there's no connection between the crime and that particular punishment but I bet you it'd be an effective deterrent (because I know this personally). I still haven't figured out what to do about women that use a firearm in the commission of a crime (because I do not understand women, but I think what is good for the gander is good for the goose, I just have not yet figured out how to do it yet).
I think that any jurisdiction that wants to restrict or ban the possession of any type, or all types, of firearms ought to be able to do so. If you don't like the restrictions, move. (what I meant in the first paragraph about people being allowed to own guns I did not really mean at all)
I think that any firearms dealer that has a pattern of illegal arms sales (That is to say the dealer has not committted any crime but should be punished anyway or if they commit a crime than should be allowed to keep doing it until I say stop) should be put out of business ASAP and his ass ought to wind up in jail. Maybe the castration thing for them too (because after all you can never have a large enough pile of testicles in city hall).
I believe that there are a lot of people out there that ignore the "well regulated militia" part of the 2nd amendment. (I don't really know what it means myself but I think it has something to do with the National guard)

I think that someone should invent a trigger lock that would stop anyone from opening it if they if they were drunk (because after all you don't need to defend yourself when you are drunk and drinking is bad). Said lock could be opened in a true emergency but then you have to destroy the gun (And castrate the owner... sometimes I even impress myself). Your reward for using a lock like this would be something like REALLY low insurance rates or something like that (because home owners insurance is so gosh darn high right now).
I believe that guns don't kill people, bullets kill people, unless you club someone to death with a rifle butt (bullets, unlike guns are antimate. They fly fast and hard strike with an evil intent. They are always there lurking for you, just waiting to strike)
Titan, and hence why democracy is a failure.
Good thing we don't live in a democracy. Boy, that was close....and hence why democracy is a failure.

For some of these amusing guys......either you are a "pry it from my cold, dead fingers," guy......or you're an anti.
All they do is hurt the cause.
Hey! airguns are plenty useful!Im an anti!
I hate BB guns/airguns and the people who think they have a legitimate purpose.
Whee!
