dum dum dum, another one bites the dust, and another one down....


Firearms are not toys, nor sex aids, learn from the dead.

That is all....

I want to know how exactly they were using the gun. Was it used as a sex implement, or some kind of psychosexual thing?

Very odd.

Gun control means using both hands.

I may be getting old but I got to see all the cool bands.

That's pretty stupid. If someone's going to use a weapon, they need to be able to practice with it. A lack of appropriate training and practice is a recipe for disaster.

Let alone Chris Rock (a very rich hollywood type) promoting a position that only the rich can own and use guns. TYPICAL of these guys.

i dont think chris rock was promoting that only the rich cam buy and use guns the quote that was used was from his comic routine and was meant to be funny not serious.

Well, it's a bit of both, as much political humor is.

And quite a few gun control advocates are quite serious about it and occasionally try to legislate 10 cent per bullet taxes.

Dude, it's really not.

A joke would be UW not having to play OSU last season.

Well, it's just like when you tell your girl "that looks nice"........and her response is "what's wrong with it". You can take any meaning out of it you want, but that's not the way that I intended it to be.

So unbunch your panties, don't worry.....nobody it's trying to up the price on your ammo, at least not from this keyboard.

Like I said (please read the news more if you're going to comment on this subject), there are plenty of people hoping and occasionally trying to do this.

He may have meant it as a joke, but all good jokes have a grain of truth or believability to them. And there are people in Congress who want to enact bullet taxes to increase the cost of shooting sports for gun owners, and have submitted such Bills in the past.

For example, this one's a bit old now, but it gives you an inkling of the crazy anti-gun ideas that some Congressmen have: Senate Bill 133

Yes, that's right, it proposes a 10,000% tax on ammunition.

So you see, we gun folks aren't paranoid and crazy - this crap really happens.

People would just start reloading more than they do now. Lead still melts and black powder is still made of the same things (not smokeless, I know).

I hope it never comes to that!

Good point.

I suppose there are several sides to the whole issue. The government is trying to make money and at the same time get people of their backs. The family members, victims, and people affected by the negative impact of firearms are trying to find a way to lower the amount of gun crimes. And there are average people who just want to be able to have some fun shooting and hunting.

Is there a perfect answer, I don't think so. People will always complain. It's just a matter of finding a happy medium for everybody.

The proposed change for Los Angeles included reloading supplies. Of course, everyone would just go outside the city to buy them (or bullets), but they're not quite as dumb as they look.

So now you're willing to accept these people exist and are serious, but still want to give bullshit explanations for their motivations.

It's not about revenue or driving down the "negative impact of guns." It's about making gun ownership as expensive and onerous as possible so few non criminals will bother, which makes it very easy to ban outright at that time. It's really that simple.

It's not about safety, because discouraging people from training increases the accident rate. It's not effective with criminals who don't bother to go to gun ranges and can afford the small number of bullets they would need. It does prevent the non wealthy from owning guns, which is on the agenda for the most racist/classist of the gun control movement.

Whoa, time to switch to decaf.

I never said these people didn't exist. I said that I meant the quote as a joke.

And I'm not trying to come up with a bunch of bs justifications for anything. I'm trying to see things from everybody's perspective rather than just my own. Like I said.....you need to take everybody's perspective and then construct a happy medium for everybody.
