  1. I think there should be different standards for a product primarily designed to kill efficiently and a product designed to transport people and product efficiently. Driving a truck into a crowd is not the intended use or purpose of a truck. Should a truck be in an accident and doesn't offer the expected safety standards, then indeed lawsuits follow. Generally resulting in safer design and improved technology to lower the risk of deadly consequences.
  2. It is stunning that a live round would ever be chambered in a class on gun safety. Inert plastic rounds are used and available for such instruction. Third grader shoots cops gun at school: http://www.policemag.com/channel/patrol/news/2018/02/06/minnesota-3rd-grader-fires-officer-s-holstered-gun-at-school.aspx Its stunning school children have to stage walkouts to try and get adults to prevent massacres in their classrooms.
  3. What the hell do estimates and projections have to do with reviewing actual results? Guess you don't understand the difference, that would actually make sense. But you still haven't answered why you used political ideology to try and prove your point that Trump is more patriotic than Obama when you think patriotism isn't subjective. You don't understand that either do you? I'm not the one that politicizes things. The Democrats do. Ah yes, always somebody else.
  4. Arming teachers is clearly a great idea! http://www.ksbw.com/article/seaside-high-teacher-accidentally-fires-gun-in-class/19426017 Teacher and a cop....lol

  6. It has only been 2.5 months. I think it will take a bit longer to see the actual total effect. Don't you?
  7. So patriotism is subjective and based on your political leaning? It is for you! Ok, if it isn't for you, then why are you brining up political ideology to prove Trump is more patriotic than Obama?

  9. Or still better than what Hillary would have been. "But Hillary" seems to be the way they explain everything to themselves.
  10. IF this is about Tillerson speaking up against Russia on his own this is very justified. I don't necessarily agree with it but diplomats cannot announce our foreign policy without putting it through the President. Agreed, speaking ill of the boss' boss will have consequences.
  11. On Dec 1, 2017 Donald Trump called Rex Tillerson leaving soon Fake News.
  12. And I should add that UK is apparently going around indicating they might invoke Article 5. If they do, which I find unlikely, the US under Trump would definitely reject that. This would lead to the end of NATO, something Russia would be very happy with.
  13. No statements from trump and the only guy in the administration who spoke out about it has now been fired....through twitter.
  14. Contrast that with Bill Clinton saying "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" yet there he was in the oval office, no less, getting a blow job from Monica Lewinsky. Sure it's just a blow job but that sounds worse than what that politician did to resign over. Fucking Clintons, you just can't trust those motherfuckers. Hillary has railroaded every woman that filed a complaint against Bill. It's why I refused to vote for her. LMAO, I am sure that's the reason.
  15. He may prefer that story, adultery is a class B misdemeanor in New York State.
  16. You didn't click on the NYT link embedded in that article...did you? You only read the Breitbart part, and probably only the headline right? You never learn. You have fallen face deep in your own shit so many times, yet you refuse to learn.
  17. you just did and Bill did not address your point....... Wendy wasn't speaking of accidental shootings, she was speaking of accidents, as in innocent people getting killed. At least that is how I read it. Secondly, you are disputing a 2017 research paper with a summary put together in 2000. Do you think about anything before you post it? Review it a bit?
  18. That's assuming you don't hear or feel something long before you see anything.
  19. Not compared to other cause of death statistics. Derek V And also not a big deal compared to world famine. On the other hand, a mass shooting a day is not rare. I am happy I live in a society where mass shootings are rare....not once a day "rare".
  20. That is is within the confines of mental health and the solution would flow from that.
  21. Not when your focus is on guns and not other issues that cause much more deaths each year. Derek V Considering the threat is titled: Minimum age to buy firearms, it would be odd to discuss ways to prevent drowning deaths in backyard pools. Hence, claiming that in a topic specific thread not enough concern is given to other ways one can die, and therefor there is no reason to discuss death by bullet, is beyond asinine.
  22. How about studying it without preset qualifications? Surprised to hear a scientist call for a study with preconceived ideas where the solution should fall.
  23. As of March 4th, for the year 52 mass shootings, defined as at least 4 injured and/or killed, resulting in 179 wounded and 100 dead. I wouldn't call roughly 1 a day as something rare. If something happens every day or even every other day, then that is pretty frequent.
  24. Kallend December 2007: ***Funny, I drive and walk though Chicago every day (and have done for 30 years) and never needed a gun. Nor do I ever expect to. Yep, as much as people that are anti-gun try and say it is a big problem, it really isn't. It makes for big news, so it alters our perception of the magnitude of the issue. Derek V Yeah a mass shooting a day really isn't such a big deal.
