Gun Control is Completely Useless.

The analogy of another poster of the bartender being responsible for serving liquor to a drunk who gets into an accident, with the manufacturer of firearms being responsible for a murder is absolutely wrong...the bartender doesn't manufacture the booze...good luck with that:smile:
That has to be the stupidest comparison I have heard from the anti crowd...:roll:

Contract who gets the ownership nod to Santa Clause. He has the list of naughty and nice and knows where everybody lives
OK....Let's propose to the government that Cigarettes and booze must be registered, since they are responsible for people's death...
Good luck with that...:smile:
And don't tell me that this is not a good analogy.....it's as good as the ones the anti crowd is spewing forth.

Really, and the best argument for the pro-crowd "Being tioo costly" and " the right to be annoymous" to own dangerous killing machines trumps even one unfortunate victim.... ROTFL.
We are not cave dwellers anymore who need to protect ourselves against dinosaurs etc. We have moved from tribes of people banding together for protection, to tribes banding together for individual interests. The only thing we need protection from these days are others of our own species. And we have become a selfish, nasty lot. We care more about protecting our own wallets and skins than taking responsibility for protecting those unable to protect themselves !!
As for the manufacturers of booze, not paying........ How much do they lose whenever a drinking establishment loses it's license?? And it is pretty easy for the average Joe to make their own booze which requires very litltle outlay. It is about the best solutions to every problem and allowing annomity for those owning weapons is not one.
Another goal post move.....
Lady...you don't like guns? .... don't buy one and to reiterate what I sais before....the registry is just about gone so............I'm sorry for you loss
Quebec wants a provincial registry? Good.... I don't live there...and I don't want my name in their registry............
Perhaps you could make a list of taboos so the rest of us can easier follow your logic! :smile:
I'm starting to think the police should need a warrant before they are even allowed to check the registry for restricted firearms. I really don't see what business it is of theirs. Are they going to be less cautious going to a home that doesn't have a registered firearm? If yes, that's just unprofessional, if no, then why bother checking?
Then, it should be possible for any citizen who appears on said registry to see if their entry has ever been read. Then they can start the unlawful search civil suits.

Works for me. Only in a police state can police arbitrarily go looking through registries just for something to do.
I guess everyone needs a hobby. Last I checked though, deer have stealth and speed on their side, bears have size and strength, an unarmed human stands zero chance against a bear.
You are right in one regard, guns were designed to kill; millions of innocents were killed because because either people like you and/or their opressors deprived them of the means to defend themselves. Bad people will always find the means to oppress.
Benign items like cribs and blinds serve a different purpose, manufacturers are held liable for defects that cause death or injury because the items were considered safe. Operating cars, trucks, heavy equipment, power tools etc. involve a level of risk, but if injury is the result of a design flaw, the manufacturer is held liable. Firearms do what they do, that is what they are designed to do, it is up to the user, not the manufacturer to ensure proper and legal operation.
You may also want to research further into your stats. These are the same sort of stats spouted by the Dr. Phil types. Suicides do not decrease with incidence of firearm ownership, just the method changes. The late teen demographic is also the highest for gang membership, many of these deaths occur along with the paricipants' other criminal activities.
Right on Bob, you've put it in such a way that if she has half a brain, you have stifled her blatherings. :smile:
And for those who advocate bells and whistles or pepper spray as protection?????
Pls read carfully;-)
