More people are concerned about reality tv then gun control laws.

anybody see nyc rebel today?

We gotta look at the parents of the people who are doing these shootings. I found out that Colorado fakkits dad was set to testify against big banking and created some kind of algorithm that was able to trace lost money directly to the accounts where the money was ultimately deposited. He was set to testify before the senate and then his son went ham.

Its so demonic.

 

[Mr swag]

i may not agree with bloomberg on many issues, but he's dead on about gun control
this is ridiculous

bloomberg has blood on his hands

he has stopped these people from being able to defend themselves

bad guys will always get guns. gun laws dont work

 

[Mr swag]

So we should just let them get it as easily as humanly possible? This guy wasn't a criminal, he lost his job and went insane and shot some people up. There is a fukking reason our gun murder rate is so absurd compared to the rest of the world, nonchalant attitudes like the one you're taking. Like we should just sit back and do nothing, There has been like 4 mass shootings in the past month.

and he was he can still get a gun if he wanted

 

[DalMem]

Guess he is white, because it's taking the media along time to show his picture.

Yeah, they do. They keep bad guys from getting as many guns.

"In 2003, there were 30,136 firearm-related deaths in the United States; 16,907 (56%) suicides, 11,920 (40%) homicides (including 347 deaths due to legal intervention/war), and 962 (3%) undetermined/unintentional firearm deaths.
CDC/National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, WISQARS Injury Mortality Reports 1999-2003 http://www.cdc.gov/ncipc/wisqars

The rate of death from firearms in the United States is eight times higher than that in its economic counterparts in other parts of the world.
Kellermann AL and Waeckerle JF. Preventing Firearm Injuries. Ann Emerg Med July 1998; 32:77-79.

The overall firearm-related death rate among U.S. children younger than 15 years of age is nearly 12 times higher than among children in 25 other industrialized countries combined."
The U.S. Compared to Other Nations

Do you honestly think those stats have nothing to do with the laws?

More people need guns, all these mass shootings and folks still walking around unarmed.

 

[Mikael Blowpiff]

How many times do people actually bust back in states with looser gun laws? Colorado has relatively loose gun laws yet no one stepped up during that shooting in Aurora. If anything pulling out(pause) during a mass shooting would only result in more confusion. If the cops come all they see is a guy with a gun.

A 53-year-old fashion designer from New York?

Seriously, America?

Like...seriously?

 

[Slystallion]

New York has some of the strictest gun laws in the country...and he still was able to have a gun and use it recklessly...

Unless you make it illegal to make new guns criminals will always have access to them...and if they suddenly stopped making them then there would have to be a major effort to confiscate every gun in existence

Does that sound realistic to you? Then this crazy person would have just stabbed his old boss or made a home made bomb

Crazy is crazy why strip me of my right to defend myself because of a small percentage of crazy people...if anything if more sane people carried crazy people can be held in check for the most part
