” Police only need to re-certify once a year.”
Lol “ONLY” once a year? thts stricter than even I intended
“Please youtube those sad but funny videos showing they can’t shoot for their life!”
Lol, is that really your argument, for looser gun regulation?
“You do know that in order to obtain a license there are background checks,”
sometimes, notalways
” training with the sheriff department on the laws,”
sometimes not always
” and treatment on how to handle a gun.”
sometimes not always.
“New York city does not give concealed weapons permits unless you prove that you are a target.”
Um yes, I’m really not sure what your argument is anymore
“If cereal equates to fruity pebbles,”
I dont know what that means
“Actually, the states came from a research website that listed the countries gun laws versus homicide.”
which website?
“Regardless who it is registered”
Lol, no not refardless! THAT is what we are discussing
“But Israel does not have a second amendment that guarantees that right, so yes, they can add additional requirements.”
You have mane this illogical argument 3 times. It isnt becoming more logical the more you repeat it
“So you worried about people killing themselves or killing others?
both
“If it is themselves, then remove knives, cars, and bridges and people use them to kill themselves too.”
Not nearly as much. and again d you really need he difference explained to you?
“So why legislate against the weapon of choice versus knives?”
Sigh, becasue you have to weigh the burden on society vs the benefit. I assume you agree there should be some speed limit in place on some roads at some times. Ie I assume you agree that in a school zone cars shouldnt drive 100 mph. Now does that mean you would ban all driving? or limit speed limit to 1 mph? It would obviously save more lives, so why dont we do that? Becasue the burden is too high we need to drive but not to fast so we come up with a happy medium.
Guns are fun, get it snuffing out the life of small helpless namless or smashing targets is a real rush, it makes us feel like a real powerful man. fine, great. We need to weigh that wonderful use against the harm to soceity. The US has one of the highest homicie rates, this is too high a price to pay for unfettered access to guns. We need to regulate control to guns more. No this wont stop every death, but it will help.
You brought up ars, again like Israel, if we trated guns like we do cars that would be fine. Are you sure you are not on my side? Wh ydo you keep brining examples that weaken your position?
“Chicago has a high homicide rate. So it has nothing to do with the laws, but the people”
Asked and answered .
“There are great papers on that.”
Yp there are,
“I guess that is why people outside NYC is allowed to turn right on red, because people don’t abuse it. So yes!”
Lol, you mean so no, thats not running a red if you are “allowed to turn”. right?
Typical liberal making me wait at reds just to control my life .
