It always bothered me that the generally accepted parlance for the DBZ farmer is "farmer with shotgun."
A lever-action shotgun, that shoots bullets??

Guns are the complete opposite of pot, in that nobody under 40 is willing to tolerate their existence, yet they won't stop being legal. |

Honestly, I don't think it's possible to collect enough firepower to take on the government anymore. No gun in the world will save you from missiles and stealth bombers and shit like that. But I don't think gun ownership is inherently wrong because how else are we going to stop the police? |

Remember when the police went around talking about how they'd use tasers as a substitute for guns, and yet instead they started using them as a substitute for virtually everything but? _________________ @}-,-'- *~*~* Member of the FTU Elegant Tea Party Society *~*~* -'-,-{@ |

I guess, if guns really would have helped fighting an oppressive government, the black militia in the 60s would have won. |

Yeah, that illusion does seem like something that only a white person in America could hold at this point. Although I guess a lot of those white people really think they need to arm themselves against all the Mexicans and blacks... |

I read about one case where a local chapter of the NAACP allied with the NRA in the 60s to defeat an ambush by the KKK and the police to kill their leader. But, yeah, it's the sort of thing that isn't sustainable against a modern national government. You'd need the support of military leaders, and, at that point, you've probably already fucked up by putting the military in power.
Still, fuck the police. |

It is definitely fucked that we're the only country in the world that has a psychopathic assault rifle massacre once or twice a year, but when you compare the number of deaths by machine gun/assault rifle per year to the deaths by illegally acquired handguns, it becomes clear that banning ARs is a bandaid solution pushed by nanny state liberals who are more concerned with stamping out relatively harmless "gun nut" culture than actually exacting any kind of effective change in our society.
Listen, I'm super liberal on literally every other issue. But I feel like the way that liberals handle the gun control issue is the same way that Republicans handle pretty much every other social issue: Alarmist bullshit scare tactics which eschew facts and violate human and constitutional rights in order to push the cultural agenda to which their party is tied.
"GAYS WILL DESTROY OUR FAMILIES UNLESS WE BAN GAY MARRIAGE."
"ABORTION WILL DAMN US ALL UNLESS WE BAN ABORTION."
"THIS GUN VIOLENCE WON'T STOP UNLESS WE BAN ASSAULT RIFLES."
I'm all for gun control, I just think there are more effective solutions.
As for the militias thing, that was just a joke. I just think people should be able to own whatever guns they want as long as they are positively not insane. |

Hey retard, ASSAULT WEAPONS LEAVE THE COUNTRY AND ARE USED FOR CRIME IN CANADA AND MEXICO. THAT'S WHERE THEY GET THEIR ASSAULT WEAPONS. This isn't some benign quirk that is acted out on shooting ranges with whitebread bitches like you. Being alarmist about the proliferation of consumer weapons that are made for killing a maximum number of human beings in the shortest amount of time isn't comparable to being alarmist about gay marriage and abortion. Americans are so retarded about guns because the gun lobby has made the entire subject political leprosy that nobody wants anything to do with. |

Like Theldorrin said, handguns and grenades should not be readily attainable. I don't understand how gun advocates think that the deadliness of other existing weapons is somehow a positive for assault weapons. |

I'll concede that exporting is a serious issue that I had not considered. MAYBE I'M A RETARD OK? |

ALDP did make a good point about exporting
But if ALDP gave a shit about arms and terror caused in foreign countries, he would be protesting the Pnetagon/military-industrial complex (which does a ton of exporting, of course) much more than gun control issues. That's going to happen even if the American public is disarmed.
Gun control is unconstitutional (according to Alan Dershowitz, the constitution probably gives the right to bear arms. Interpreting it any more strictly than this is a dangerous precedent for other amendments)
Excessively difficult to enforce (yes, that alone is no argument I admit. But it is practically reaching red-herring levels given how constipated american energies are)
And probably not even good for the economy.
In any even, this discussion is of no moral value; little more gun control is going to happen at the federal level and nobody is gay enough to listen to ALDP. Sorry for wasting our time |
