    If the marriage lacks a wife, a nanny must be hired. Video game preference and cup size can be selected.

    real, useful, gun control

    Would you accept "real, useful" speech control? No, that doesn't mean punishment for yelling "fire," but some sort of gag applied so you couldn't yell anything? Freedom is all or nothing.

    The IT field does suffer from a lack of diversity due to the entrenched discrimination against debonair gentlemen and handsome athletes.

    Our ancestors risked everything to escape from that shithole, and our collective wisdom protects us from its nefarious influences. Emigrant Martians feel the same way, as you can see by their determined efforts to sabotage travel to that hellish planet.

    How is breaking other laws going to get you guns when they don't exist? Not too easy to construct a weapons factory without the police state noticing.

    Then why do cops need 16-rounds? And assault rifles with 30-round double magazines? They even get paid gun instruction. Reality is people miss under stress, your opponent is going to take cover, there can be more than one. Hope you aren't ever targeted by violent criminals, because hope is all that is protecting you.

    You choose safety over freedom. Maybe you should consider taking the internet away too. Imagine all the child porn, credit card fraud, bullying, etc. that would be prevented. Because punishing wrong-doing is too late: prevent doing.

  10. Re:Militia on New York Passes Landmark Gun Law · · Score: 1

    The people recognize the government, not the other way around. The National Guard is composed of mercenaries, commanded by the President, and is not a militia in any way. You're right, it's not the 18th Century anymore, and we know how easy it is to slip into a modern totalitarian state with it's technological tools of mass control.

    Most mass shooters and terrorists are quite intelligent, though their minds have been warped.

    Wouldn't have stopped Lanza. We don't even know if his mom locked up her guns and he defeated the security, but he could certainly have stabbed her while she was sleeping and taken the key.

    Doesn't matter how the words make you feel, it's accurate. You believe that citizens should live in a state of imprisonment to prevent them from becoming criminals subject to imprisonment.

    Yet someone could still easily buy and use 4 or more holsters and walk into a school with revolvers and shoot 10, 20, or more people if they wanted to.

    Gun ban activists have their strategy planned out, and are waiting for that to happen so they can limit individuals to one handgun and a certain ration of ammunition. This is why they refuse to put guards in schools (besides the unions wanting all the tax money). "Responsible gun owners" who agree to concessions to gradually disarm themselves are actually working for a gun ban.

    Being shot to death isn't much to fear. There are far worse things that can be done to you, and only a gun can protect you.

    No one wants to ban all arms.

    When Obama and Biden say they will do what it takes to save "even one life" what else can they mean? And when gun ban activists point to the bans in European states and say "everyone is doing it" how in God's name does this imply that "no one" wants a ban?

    Is it really going further than his affirmation that he can assassinate US citizens abroad without any kind of trial or even charges? Confiscation of guns is hardly outlandish, FDR confiscated gold!

    If the shooters were encouraged by NRA rhetoric to attack police stations, military bases, etc., you might have a point, but it's a lot more plausible that liberal media and gun ban activists who hype school shootings are the ones who are encouraging violence in schools. Fiercely independent people are intimidating, but these people mean you well, unlike the truly hard professional killers employed by the government. I diagnose you with a general anxiety towards freedom, which is a common malady, but easily treated by firing 1000 rounds at the gun range.

    What are the chances of a mass shooting at Obama's kids' school? Yeah, pretty much 0. You can say that kind of security is too expensive, but what you really mean is our kids lives aren't worth that much, since they could just as well die in other accidents. Luckily giving up our rights is free...

    My state has severe gun regulations and batons are also banned along with any kind of electrical weapon. Only a matter of time until air guns are regulated out of existence, as you can see in Europe. No right to armed self-defense means no right to armed self-defense, period.
