Have you noticed the cracks in the bulwark of gun-ban MSM? Eleanors38 Jul 2016 #41

There are already restrictions and limitations Duckhunter935 Jul 2016 #3

Obviously, more restrictions and limitations. As many more as it takes. morningfog Jul 2016 #5

It takes for what exactly? Duckhunter935 Jul 2016 #6

How many, 26, 39, 49, 102, five more?; is there no magic number? sanatanadharma Jul 2016 #8

You seem bent on mass conversion of the masses by first insulting them. Eleanors38 Jul 2016 #42

Consider this analogy sarisataka Jul 2016 #9

I reject your premise out of hand. Vaccines work. morningfog Jul 2016 #10

A vaccine treats a disease sarisataka Jul 2016 #11

The disease is America's gun death cult. morningfog Jul 2016 #13

That would be the symptom sarisataka Jul 2016 #16

Wrong again. morningfog Jul 2016 #17

and if you do that sarisataka Jul 2016 #19

SHow me. Regardless, if you do that, there are far fewer dead people. morningfog Jul 2016 #20

So you want me to show you but sarisataka Jul 2016 #21

And now include gun violence. morningfog Jul 2016 #22

Here you go sarisataka Jul 2016 #23

The violent death rate discrepency without guns pales in comparison when morningfog Jul 2016 #24

But I proved my point sarisataka Jul 2016 #25

Only marginally so. But you proved the larger point: gun accessibility is the real problem. morningfog Jul 2016 #26

That would be true if sarisataka Jul 2016 #27

What an idiotic analogy. morningfog Jul 2016 #44

The Hutu in Rwanda didn't need no stinking guns. Eleanors38 Jul 2016 #45

Nonsense. Utter nonsense. beevul Jul 2016 #46

It is true, your logical fallacy notwithstanding. morningfog Jul 2016 #48

There was no logical fallacy. N/T beevul Jul 2016 #51

It stands to reason that a nation that is always at war, guillaumeb Jul 2016 #32

I would be willing to conceed sarisataka Jul 2016 #34

Are the endless wars a symptom of a capitalist system? guillaumeb Jul 2016 #35
