SUVs killed the dinosaurs! any other bits of joy and wisdom you want to share with us? Guns are not evil, they are just a tool. That must be regulated by the way just in case evil people get hold of one of them. Capitalism IS mean to poor people. you see, in order for some people to be rich, there has to be poor people. If everyone can afford a Porsche, that brand will not be cool anymore. Humans ARE killing the earth. That hole in the ozone layer daesn´t mean anuthing good. I don´t know what a SUV is. By the way, this war IS about oil. And power, and ego, and a lot of thing, bur not about freedom or anything of the sort. If i come across any other FACTS I will share them with you.

It means REGULATING And according to the US CONSTITUTION, you should not even regulate them.... ***Amendment II A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. Correct! It is the militia that should be well regulated. Tell us again who constitutes the militia.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

jakee 1,571 #14 May 19, 2004 QuoteNope....The Second Amendment here in the US makes it quite clear that they should not be. And if you outlawed guns...Crime will not go away. Bad people will do bad things without guns. Psst... He doesn't live in the US. Anyway, just because the constitution says you guys shouldn't regulate guns doesn't have any bearing on whether regulating guns is right or wrong. Edited for ballistic punctuation.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, but guns have little to do with violence either..They don't MAKE people violent. They are a tool just like a wrench or socket set. But the Constituition saying what it says DOES have bearing on weither banning or regulating guns is LEGAL in the US..And its not."No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
