You mean barbarians. It is offensive to the population of the country to see pictures of lawmakers behaving like this.

Your side will compromise on this issue. And I would hate you to try to throw more of your lawmakers, who compromise, under the bus over reasonable gun control laws. This will only result in Democrats getting the house. It is never a good thing when 1 party controls house, senate and WH...

Wow and the fact that Bush started 2 wars and charged them on a credit card had nothing to do with our current mess. But, let's not get into such discussions on this thread. It is about current and new gun laws and their consequences.

My point exactly, but some here and many others refuse to admit the reality. And the reality is repub law makers are now cornered after CT tragedy. New gun laws are almost a certainty now.

Just look at all these mass shootings, they are not done by criminals, who can indeed get any kind of weapon on black market, no matter what kind of bans there are. They mostly are done by law abiding citizens who can either buy them legally or steal from relatives. They would not even...

In a movie theater, packed with people, 3 seconds will be a matter of life or death for many. The gunman was stopped in 1993 during LI railroad massacre when he paused to reload: "He killed six and wounded nineteen before being stopped by three of the passengers: Kevin Blum, Mark McEntee and...

I know about federal departments, and the fact that you drink clean water, have decent guarantee that the food you buy is safe, and so on.... is all part of "big" government. A small history example, when government tried to install first aqueduct in NYC in 19th century, there was huge...

What features make them more convenient for home defense? If there is an intruder in your home, hand gun is more effective and can be accessed easier (could be stored during the night next to bed on table stand). Similar applies to carry license. Well, touch luck if something that looks...

Ok, then we are on the same page about national defense and role of federal government along with regulatory agencies. But that is pretty much what federal government does today on a larger scale obviously. Next is money supply, who do you think should control/manage it? The list will go...

Actually, you are the one who seems to be fired up about the issue. Even though you not be willing to admit it, but psychologically, deep inside, you might feel like the change to gun control laws is coming. And there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. When it does pass, hope you will...

BS, majority of people care. Each side has its own idiots, both liberal and conservative.

Then my "friend", you are very naive in ways of DC.

Let me ask you a question, would you like federal government to be completely out of your lives? No controls of any kind no restrictions, every man for himself.

Still not seeing your point about that tragedy and reasonable gun control laws on national level.

Do you really believe that nothing will change after CT massacre? Are you a trader/investor? If yes, think of it in odds. That's why I offered a bet to pspr, that would have been easy money for charity I support. As far as federal government involvement in various areas of our lives, it is...

Yes, how is it related to banning assault weapons and more thorough background checks?

A while back I used x trader and got the data into excel via rtd.

Yes, it is going to be hard to enforce it, but when people will face charges for selling their guns to someone who is not supposed to have it, it will deter the most. Anyway, this debate will lead to nowhere. Let's wait and see what happens next.

Thanks for pointing my typo. Just the beginning: http://news.yahoo.com/congressional-backing-grows-gun-control-debate-220341844--politics.html It will not just be an assault ban, the bill will have other provisions. I hope it will close gun shows loop hole. As far as you selling it to...

I am a strong supporter of 2nd Amendement. Times have changed indeed, and ar15 will not help against government, I hope you do realize this. The real need for firearms is to protect against criminals, and hand guns are more then enough to do it. Hunting rifles, do not need 30 bullets in a...
