Coondog, no law is going to put an end to any kind of violent crime. I wish people would get that through their thick heads
All rifles are basically the same. The major difference is some are auto loaded between rounds and some are manually loaded between rounds by use of a bolt or lever. The socalled assualt rifles only differ in appearance from other rifles. The don't have any special ability to kill more people in less time.
But as long as the stupids are pushing for more and stricter laws I guess they will have to push for hysteria to get things their way.

And you are right about some folks like to shoot things or blow things up. When I was in the army I had the oppertunitty to fire several different types and sizes of howitzers, rifles, carbines and two sizes of machineguns. My prersonal favorites were the self-propelled 105 howitzer and the Browning .50 cal machinegun.

I went to the March for our Lives today in Washington DC. The kids who spurred this event are amazing, and deserve out thanks for accomplishing what their elders have been unable to do for decades.

Well, not all elders. I saw this sweet old lady. She has deadly aim on the target, idiotic gun fetishists like the NRA and their accomplices.

We were having a nice conversation about reasonable gun restrictions and you guys have managed to flood the entire valley with graphs and charts regarding everything from gun deaths in Alaska to Suicides in Japan to Automobile wrecks and drownings.

To me, arguing about the ratio of gun deaths between America and Antarctica is a useless conversation. How about we compare firearm deaths in America to zero gun deaths. Start there and work your way to some sort of understanding. Make a chart. That may or may not tell you something.

All you need to know is that nobody is talking about banning all guns, so any argument based upon that premise is false from the beginning.
The idea is impractical as well as impossible, regardless of how many graphics one might conjure up.

Here's a challenge for all you graph fans: Find one that depicts the ratio of killings committed by males in society as opposed to females. That will tell you who should and who should not be allowed to handle a firearm.

Coondog, I started an exhaustive correlation analysis to examine the points you just made.

My computer started groaning, then burst into flames, then went kablooey all over the desk.

In summary, I am forced to conclude that you are correct.

Here's about solving the American gun problem.

He makes sense.

Juggler and Neeck, Are you guys for real or are you just a couple of wise one's minions?
I ask because your postings are a ridiculous as the ones he posts.
Because they have nothing to resist with the people in North Korea are forced to put up with the abuse. In North Korea only the police and the military are armed.
The jeck on the vidio who refers to himself as a republican may be one, but he is as much a liberal as any democrat. both policital parties are filled with self serving morons and criminals.
Maybe you guys would like to live under the same conditions as the people in North Korea.

Another air head cartoon Juggler???????

The main reason a well armed citizenry is a deterrent to a tyrannical government is not because an army of civilians can fight the military.

It's because of all the problems an armed citizenry can cause a tyrannical government.

Maybe you should read about all the problems the underground groups gave the Germans in Europe and the problems the Japs had in the Philippines

from just a small number of armed civilians. More recently, the problems the Russians had in Afghanistan. Another example would be the Jews dealing

with the British prior to Partition.

The object of being armed isn't to fight the government. Its only so the government knows we can if we ever have to.
