yanko 11 Posted October 3, 2017 I love living in a country where a shooter's access to guns can be considered a "right", but medical treatment for the victims of the carnage they inflict is merely "privilege". Never mind that access to guns is only considered a right in the Constitution for a well regulated militia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted October 3, 2017 That old gag. For one its true. For another, at that time, black people were legally slaves and only white male property owners could vote. The constitution can be changed, and has many times. Its long past time we correct the second amendment mistake. The founders were great men, but they made some mistakes.

Be careful what you wish for. The fact that the SCOTUS ruled it as an individual right was a change to the constitution so that boat already sailed. Best to get It right this time with a new interpretation, preferably one that returns it back to the original meaning or an amendment that accomplishes something similar.

Best to get It right this time with a new interpretation, preferably one that returns it back to the original meaning or an amendment that accomplishes something similar. Frankly, that amendment was written at a time when there was no standing military and there was a constant local Indian threat. Seeing as how we now have more military power than the rest of the world combined, Id say its time we repeal it altogether. Get it to something sane. Hunting guns only with a license. Ammo has to be accounted for. Can get a license to carry a pistol if you show need. The others? Scrap heap. And the penalty for breaking those laws would need to be stiff.

RaiderHaters Revenge 4,356 Posted October 3, 2017 jeezus Left pick a ###### agenda and go with it.

SenatorRock 708 Posted October 3, 2017 Glad it turned out not to be the Bernie Bro in my earlier post pulling the trigger (although it looks as if the missing woman shares his name so there may still be a connection). I don't think this country could handle the fallout from a politically motivated attack of this scale. If it had been a Muslim or a Nazi behind this attack it would have started a civil war. Hopefully the hateful bastards on both sides can find some common ground and work on mending the wounds our country is currently dealing with. And lol at the anti-gun nuts. Typical liberal mentality. Guns are bad if a white guy is pulling the trigger. Hope that strategy works out this time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Except that your complaint is a red herring. Illegal gun possession charges are thrown out in our judicial system on the regular. Here is just one story about it in just one county - albeit important (Cook County, IL): http://chicagoreporter.com/thousands-felony-gun-cases-are-being-dismissed-cook-county-criminal-courts/ So, as you can plainly see, the problem isn't law enforcement. They confiscate illegal guns every day, by the bushel. The problem is the leftist judiciary who throws the charge out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Djgb13 2,339 Posted October 3, 2017 Here's a little tidbit you might find interesting: In 1865 a Democrat shot and killed Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States. In 1881 a left wing radical Democrat shot James Garfield, President of the United States who later died from the wound. In 1963 a radical left wing socialist shot and killed John F. Kennedy, President of the United States. In 1975 a left wing radical Democrat fired shots at Gerald Ford, President of the United States. In 1983 a registered Democrat shot and wounded Ronald Reagan, President of the United States. In 1984 James Hubert, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 22 people in a McDonalds restaurant. In 1986 Patrick Sherrill, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 15 people in an Oklahoma post office. In 1990 James Pough, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 10 people at a GMAC office. In 1991 George Hennard, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 23 people in a Luby's cafeteria. In 1995 James Daniel Simpson, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 5 coworkers in a Texas laboratory. In 1999 Larry Asbrook, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 8 people at a church service. In 2001 a left wing radical Democrat fired shots at the White House in a failed attempt to kill George W. Bush, President of the US. In 2003 Douglas Williams, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 7 people at a Lockheed Martin plant. In 2007 a registered Democrat named Seung - Hui Cho, shot and killed 32 people in Virginia Tech. In 2009, a left wing radical Islamic sympathizer Major Nidal Hasan fatally shot 13 people and injured more than 30 others on Fort Hood, near Killeen, Texas. The shooting produced more casualties than any other on an American military base. In 2010 a mentally ill registered Democrat named Jared Lee Loughner, shot Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in the head thus wounding her for life. In 2011 a registered Democrat named James Holmes, went into a movie theater and shot and killed 12 people. In 2012 Andrew Engeldinger, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 7 people in Minneapolis. In 2013 a registered Democrat named Adam Lanza, shot and killed 26 people in a school. In Sept 2013, an angry Democrat shot 12 at a Navy ship yard. In 2016 a registered Muslim Democrat murdered 49 people in an Orlando night club. One could go on, but you get the point, even if the media does nothing. Clearly, there is a problem with Democrats and guns. Not one NRA member, Tea Party member, or Republican conservative was involved in these shootings and murders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
