    How do you figure? Maybe you don't know what the "pink elephant" means. Again, everyone knows about gang violence.

    Why play the victim? No one called you anything. Why do you feel that way? You bring up black people A LOT. Does that mean you are a racist? You suggested it, not me.

    You know exactly what you meant. I'm willing to talk about subjects that make progressives uncomfortable and I really don't give a damn what they call me for it but I'll point out the fact that they do and laugh about it.

    Puny Jedi mind tricks won't work here

    Yes, I do, but obviously you don't, and you already proved it. You are trying to argue I meant the opposite of what I said, which is borderline absurd.

    No one called you anything, so quit playing the victim. You do it all the time and it gets old.

    Playing the victim is pretty much the opposite of laughing.

    Its more like this

    Get over yourself. Your talking point didn't pay off.

    Its possible. The shooting in this case (the topic) was not robbery of any kind, it looks like it was personal.

    Don't tell us it's Guns

    Sorry, but guns do play a part in gun related deaths. To simply say “don’t tell us it’s guns” is not being completely genuine. Just as solely blaming guns is also not being genuine. Takes two to tango.

    And for those who seem to have a penchant for reading things that aren’t posted….no, I do not support more gun laws.

    One, they don't go to places which a background check is used. Second, they get them grom places or persons either on the black market or an associate, and three, you have the community guns in certain neighborhoods.

    But many who commit crimes with firearms never been in serious trouble with the law before either, yet still commit the crime

    :hmm: It almost feels like a response we'd get from you know, the usual suspects from that other crazy joint where we used to post.

    What he's trying to do with the erection of the strawman fail is to make the reader see that gun bans, infringing on our rights, is the only avenue that's left. :cynic:

    Gun free zones only work if the areas surrounding them are also gun free.

    If the argument that we only need more guns and this would go away is easily disproven as if it was true the US — which has more guns than anywhere else on Earth — would be a bastion of safety.

    If they wanted to stop school shootings there is an easy solution. The city owns the public school and the city owns the cop's shop. Put them in the same building. To keep offenders away from the kids you could leave booking and jail wherever however far away you need it. But at least put the dispatch in the public school building. That way if there is still a shooting the cops are already there.

    ANY school shooting or mass gun attack you read about anywhere in the west today probably happened in the USA. It is by and large a USA problem. Not so much a gun problem, but a cultural problem of a country that glorifies violence.

    A whole lot more than people without guns. And a whole lot more than people in other western countries with guns.

    well democrat gun control schemes not only waste lots of effort and time, they detract from effective responses to active shooters and armed violent criminals.

    You guys don't want to prevent shootings from happening, all you want to do is kill people after they have already shot and injured/killed someone.

    You haven't heard the instances where a good citizen with a gun stopped or slowed down a mass shooter?
