But I am not advocating on national TV and he does. If he would have calmly debated his point, he would have a lot more merit. Now many look at him as a fool.

True, but it deters the most. She seems like a law abiding citizen, and most probably would follow the law, if there was one in place.

It might make sense to him, and others like him, but it won't happen. I am definitely on the team of people who support 2nd amendment. I am against sale of weapons without background checks.

Exactly, why hand guns, especially for women, offer a much better protection. Most of the time, house is where the weapon would be needed for law abiding citizens.

I already made a post, that my original thoughts on the subject were wrong. Once I learned more, I changed my mind. Ban will only work, if it is an outright ban, and such ban has zero chance of passing. Instead of banning something, the better idea would be limiting the access for mentally...

Hm, they are joking about going to a ring with a gun (strange that this is being taken as if threat), and Alex, on the other hand, is seriously threatening shooting anyone who tries to take a away his weapons. Then that stupid comment about not making it out of NYC. People like Alex, are...

Handguns are a lot better for home protection, it is also easier to keep them locked up. Many women will not be able to use shotgun properly. Banning handguns make zero sense.

Bunch of BS. It is both right and left that are to blame. Did you already forgot Patriot Act? Bush did his own share of of curtailing the freedoms. As far as uprising, it is not even in the cards yet, and won't be there for a while.

Still waiting for an answer.

Wow, I am very surprised. I actually feel the same way, I just did not expect you to be in the same camp.

I used to trade DAX years ago, it is great instrument, but it is a bit too thin for my liking. The moves were great, and as long as you stayed out of market when ZEW or IFO came out it was easily tradable. The only time when it became nuts was during events such as Kiervel's SocGen.

The odds of them being legit are extremely tiny. Not one vendor, will tech you a real edge. Some old methods maybe, not the current working ones. When you see some great claims, run, it is almost 100% guarantee that it is fake.

Futurecurrents, Are you in favor to repeal 2nd amendment?

18th was an ill conceived, short term effort. 2nd is in DNA of our nation for over 200 years.

But is it fair to prevent, let's say a woman, from owning a fire arm just because one of her siblings is a felon or mentally ill? She might need an ability to protect her life as well.

I have been asking myself the same question. Why is it not on the news and nothing being discussed about harmful effects of over medication.

I see your point, and anyone who opposes 2nd amendment, can just gnash their teeth as it is not going away ever. The more I think about the issue, the more I realize that the ban of semi automatic rifles will not work at all, as not all of them will be prohibited. The best odds then are...

The odds of situation you described are quite small. Vast majority of criminals will flee at first sign of danger, they are there for the money and are not ready being shot. Plus, in the situation you described a hand gun would be more effective. It is quite obvious that in a gun fight...

So, would you prefer that there be no background checks at all?
