Civil discourse on gun control

[piezoe]

my family less safe for a theory

yes. That's true. But it is only marginally less safe, temporarily. you arn't defenseless, you still have your double action colt .45

We are not the ones breaking the law!

This is a true statement. But does not bear on logic and the benefits of getting rid of certain types of guns.
Guns don't kill people. People kill people. Sounds good doesn't it. Will knowing this prevent mass killings? NO.

Now take the next step : People without guns can't kill people using a gun. People without a semiautomatic with a large clip can kill more people than someone with a double action revolver with only six rounds. Just keep on thinking. Don't allow your brain to get side tracked with NRA slogans.

fortunately I do.

Wondering when you plan on sharing that method with us - because what you shared recently doesn't work, for the reasons explained previously. You still have not rebutted those points.

Says you. How can you arbitrarily tell me how less safe my family will be? Sheesh, what arrogance. You have no right, sir, to tell me to trust you - my family will be fine. No proof, nothing. Just your words, which have no basis for any fact.

Neither will some law that only takes away guns from those who follow the law and would not commit mass killings in the first place.

Now take the next step : People without guns can't kill people using a gun. People without a semiautomatic with a large clip can kill more people than someone with a double action revolver with only six rounds. Just keep on thinking. Don't allow your brain to get side tracked with NRA slogans.

I agree, people without guns can't kill people with a gun. But that's just it, you can't get the guns away from the people killing others with a gun. All you can do is propose ways to take them from those who don't kill people.

Those Canadians won't have me. Too old. And my government made my medicare account non-portable, trapping me, just like I was in the old Soviet union and had to get a permit to travel to the next town. Sadly I'm stuck.

Do you have any idea of the billions the U.S. taxpayer would save if medicare accounts were portable.? I do!

So as long as I'm stuck here, I am going to do my best to make the place tolerable.

Have you considered moving to a different state?

I recommend that he look into Point Roberts, Washington.

Except for the ocean, it is completely surrounded by Canada so he can pretend to be a Faux Canadian.

It's only 1.5 hours south of Vancouver.

It's 100% on American territory, so all benefits such as Medicare can be used there and the same tax status.

Regardless, we should certainly get rid of semiautomatic hand guns and large magazine semiautomatic rifles, and all assault guns that were designed originally for military or police use. If we do that, eventually the criminals will not have these guns either and the"playing field" will again be level.

In order for criminals to not have these guns either, you will need to find a way to keep them from entering the country illegally after you remove them here. What is your proposal for that?

That sounds like a good option.
I think he actually likes Mississippi. He just likes to complain about it.
