5 foot long guns? No problem... have them here in 12g, .50 cal and .54 cal. AND paperwork for A.O.W.s, full auto AND explosives... that means I can legally own them per federal rules. Don't have any "big bad scary things" right now, but I'd love a pair of those belt fed 40mm grenade launchers. Have 20 acres of logging and stump removal coming up.

Got to love the ease with which working farms get through the federal hoops and loop holes.

Oh, I can also have functional cannon here without any restrictions. My place is a mile deep by 1/2 a mile wide tapering to 1/4 mile wide...

While we're at it,... let's send all school children to school in bulletproof vests...
Every teacher gets an AR15,...(we'll have to train them, of course)... and buy the rifles, and ammo... with quarterly training sessions... ... and psychological evaluations every quarter as well...

You don't mind paying for that,.. do you Gyro?... ...

We better arm all theatre employees as well,... gas station attendants, fast food employees,.. librarians, Wallmart employees,... zoo keepers... hospital workers...   ...    ...  ...   ...  ...  ...  ........
...

Is this great country,.. or what?.... ...

And we do all of this @ the NRA and gun companies expence, free guns and ammo and training and psych evaluvations (heck any of that that uses up their time, they get paid their overtime salary). Anyone who gets a gun, gets a lifetime NRA membership, free, and no, not govt paying for it ... free, paid by the gun company, who just have to make that extra $$ up on the paying customers.

Cool.

Nothing more to say here friends, apparently Bob Bork has died ... Bork, wasn't he the one on star trek where they take your body and put some machinery and a red led for an eye ? ... yea he's dead.

Cool.

I want the job of disarming citizens of their flat screen TV's.

What a moron

takes one to know one......

I hate crap like that. When a speaker uses an example of one thing to describe another and then some  moron comes along and extrapolates it to ridiculous lengths as a way to dodge the issue and discredit the speaker or confuse the topic.

Clearly her point was there are many dangers in the world and knee jerk reactions are usually based in emotions rather than logic.

I just read that 25 children per year die drowning in 5 gallon buckets left with water in them. I also just read a report that in 2000, 23 children died from accidental shootings; ie. father cleaning a gun and it goes off or a kid finds it and shoots himself.

Which is more dangerous? Where is our law against empty buckets? Oh, there probably already is a law against empty buckets. Now what?

Now I know our moron here will make fun of the bucket drownings as a way to hide the issue that: 1) first and foremost he’s an idiot and 2) refusal to acknowledge facts when trying to define the problem in the first place.

This is at the heart of the surge in demands for more gun laws. Politicians will hang on with all their might to the verbiage ‘assult rifle ban’ without any idea what real life effect will occur by changing a law that ‘bad guys’ will pay no attention to anyway.  

The fact is there are millions and millions of guns in this country and millions and millions of multi-round clips. Just like the last assault weapon ban, absolutely nothing will change. The guns are here, making stupid laws that the intended targets of those laws will ignore will do nothing but get idiots elected and give others a false sense of security.

But doggone it, let’s make sure we give space to the morons too stupid to understand English so they can change the topic to suit them.

Oh yea the NRA has a solution -

Its called give us all your $$$ and it will all be cool.

"The government should post armed officers in every school" ... and you plan to pay for it how ?

Cool.
