I forgot to add to the end of that sentence, not one has ever been used in a crime since.
As for what else you said - in other words it didn't work. We still have people robbing banks, with guns, knives, bombs, etc. We still have mass killings, by guns, vehicles, bombs, etc, so it doesn't work because the gun isn't the problem in the first place. The activity stopped in the 1930s due to going after them other ways. Not due to the machine gun law. You might as well outlaw pants or shirts. They were involved in the crime as well. Before you respond half cocked so to speak, think about it. If guns were the problem we'd have a lot more problems. Where I grew up I think every kid had at least a shotgun or rifle by the age of 10. I had a high power rifle in my room, with ammo since I was 12. By the time I was 16 you'd be toast at 500 yards. This is un-aided without a scope. Just iron sights. Today, man I have a whole bunch of guns. I have ammo for guns I don't even own. We used to learn how to shoot in the high schools in this country. We used to teach respect and the concept of shut up, you need to do your work. You're not a victim either.
As for the machine gun bit, we were shooting semi's effective like a machine gun way back in the 1980s. Without the so called bump stock. It's not hard. The bad part is you go through ammo very quickly. It's only recently that people seem to realize it.
So let's talk about "gun control". It's trivial to show you that the more gun control we have the worse the problem with guns is. Where we have more guns we have less crime and fatalities. In other words - it doesn't work. It's pure insanity to keep on trying the same old thing over and over again and expecting different results. So the question is, are you insane or not? I'll be able to tell with your response. I'll get some popcorn if I see one. Let me save some time - Australia has had mass shootings and killings since their ban, just look it up. England is very easy to debunk with their gun control and how crime has risen so don't even go there. And so on. Smart thing to do is admit it doesn't work and we need to fix our society. The world is going way to far to the left.
The left historically loves gun control. Hitler was for it and in America it's always historically been racist. The left doesn't advertise that part much. So you're almost certainly a racist. They keep pushing it so they can control the people. A well armed public keeps government in check. Something we may need to do very soon in California with the lawless governments out there. They seem to want a 2nd civil war. The Democrats won't win this time either. I think we need to do a lot more cleaning after the fact, however.
That guy's problem is very basic. Apparently he didn't know about esc-x,replace-string. From, to, boom! Name conflict? Well if you're a real scientist you don't have to worry about such things. You won't have one because you've already looked. Now this isn't to say that I strongly recommend other people watch what they are doing. People have to kick themselves in the balls a few times to not do dumb things like that. Emacs makes a backup, the filename~ for people that do dumb things. There is also subversion (now git) and even backup tapes if you really did yourself into a hole. Besides, emacs is probably the wrong tool for that. You need an old/new table so you can document it because customers will disagree with what they've told you to do. Then use sed with a big shell loop. Otherwise, what are you really doing? Do you know or are you just changing names? Don't mind me, I've managed people for 30 years and I can spot bad practices a mile away. If you worked for me we'd be having about a 30-90 minute discussion. I've been burned enough times. I used to translate code from things like cobol, fortran, cobol 2 to c, perl, etc. I have a lot of experience with that. One project we had to do over 180 million lines of code. Actually I think it was more than that.
Can VS split screens and edit two, three, four files all at the same time? Split vertically too. Cut from one window paste into another. I can even create on the fly macros and run them,hell I can even call up a lisp program to do things for you. Yes, there is a useful language named lisp. Can VS do that? Of course not. Not even close. To even suggest what you did shows you haven't used emacs much at all. If you have as you say, you didn't use hardly any of the capabilities. In fact you may have seen the joke that emacs is its own operating system. Even back in the 1980s a guy wrote an emulator in emacs to emulate VI. BTW, I can run emacs on a machine on the other side of the planet. Even over a modem link that is only running at 300 baud with a VT-100 terminal. I've done it, recently. A 300 baud link is all they could get. Try running VS on a machine on the other side of the world with a link like that and get back to me.... If you're still alive by then. Maybe I'll hijack your rdp session... Microsoft is so insecure. Running skype? Yea, I could take over admin on your machine without a problem. They don't even plan on fixing that one anytime soon.
As for your roll, we were doing that in the 1980s. You know, when Microsoft was in the cave man program loader days. You can even run a shell in an emacs window. Fire it up with make, cc, then fire up gdb and when a problem comes up, pull up that line so you can change it. VS has some of these abilities, however they seem to pale in comparison to a real environment like a Linux/Unix based development environment. Simple things, sure it's great. Simple things for people making simple things type of money.
I have to use VS for some windows stuff now because the government agency I work for thinks Microsoft is great. I have to cringe because a lot of the ways they have things really suck, at least in my humble opinion. Maybe for you they rock. Even with the abundance of failures with the MS stuff... (like infopath, the old Access, etc). It's ok. For beginners I suppose. I have a nice little job taking the microsoft failures and making them successes under Linux. Usually using a real database like Mysql or Oracle and a real processing language like Python, perl, php, hell I've even been known to use C so I can get to a very basic level and make it run real fast. I don't do java anymore. That's a miserable little language.
However if VS works for you, that may be all you'll ever need. I hope you're successful with it. A lot of people make a lot of money with it. if you want to really get into stuff, it's not easy. Nothing worth while is. You'll need to learn Linux, emacs, the linux shell - things like awk, sed, tr... these are your basic 1970s technology data processing stuff and I still end up usin
What do I object to? Visual studio, etc... those are all a step backwards. Just because it's microsoft or running under windows doesn't make it better. Now if they supported emacs, well maybe.... but probably not. Microsoft makes stuff that sucks, until they make vacuum cleaners. Then they'll blow.
I used to code in Cobol and Fortran. Assembler for that matter as well. I don't miss them though sometimes I still have to go all the way down to assembler. They belong in the Museum. Emacs is still very contemporary, vi isn't really. If you knew how to use emacs you'd probably understand why the microsoft stuff is crap. However I have a feeling this is like trying to describe to you what red looks like and you're color blind. You'll never truly understand. As bad as me trying to explain scope, code re-use and objects to a Fortran guy that thought he was doing code reuse in the 1960s. He never did get it. Even after what I thought was very obvious examples.
And what does this have to do with anything? You believing leftist bullshit? Tim McVeigh - he was a terrorist and he was white. The Unibomber - he is white too.
Chris,
Actually he wrote assault rifle, not assault weapon. Assault rifle is such a thing and I pointed out to him that has been regulated since the 1930s. Asssault Weapon as you are thinking is bullshit. Anything stupid anti gun people are scared of. Stupid because they can learn about these things, they chose not to.
Ever hear of a place called Ireland? Little island just north of England. Just look them up and Bombs. The police had so many bombings over there that they could tell you how much and what type was used based on the destruction of windows around it. Back in the 1970s it seemed like they were blowing stuff up all the time.
It's not that hard. Plans are all online and materials are easy to get. 17 killed and injured would look like a walk in the park. They used to kill and injure hundreds, sometimes thousands and condemn big buildings. Maybe you heard of the Murrah building in the US? https://www.cbsnews.com/pictur... That fool blew up the building right before I was getting my Government clearance. Held it up for months.
So why don't you think bombs can be effective again?
Now about your "assault rifle" remark - they are already effectively banned. Have been since the 1930s. That's an automatic rifle. You can own one in some cases, however they are very expensive and very heavily regulated. Not one has ever been used in a crime. You may have meant - assault weapon. That's just the left's attempt to scare you. Usually a big scary looking gun like the AR-15 that they sell to civilians. I could do a lot more harm with a 12 Ga shotgun. There are a lot more effective guns that could be used.
With any luck this fools demise saved a lot of people.
My AP chemistry teacher was a bit more pedestrian, but as a bonus for attending a study session on Saturday, he demonstrated thermite burning a hole through 1" thick plate steel.
My AP chemistry teacher was the same lovely, meek, sweet, but subtly psychotic lady that I had for my first year of chemistry. Highlights of the class where when she spent the time between classes charging herself up on a van deGraff generator and greeting her students with a friendly touch on the arm when they arrived, and the time when we did fractional distillation of some nasty, right out of the ground crude oil. That resulted in some mercaptans coming out, which was an experience the entire school got to share in.
We used to mix up some ammonium iodide for flies. My high school had no A/C, open windows with holes in screens.
I tried to see how charged I could get myself off a VDG Generator. Had a classmate handle the off/on switch. I stepped up on a stool, with a camera and a mirror in front of me. I was getting the hair out just right and I was about to take a picture when everything started arcing. My cock to the table - about a 6" arc, the guy holding the switch... everything. Teacher comes running back... "What are you guys doing!!!!!!" Both of us - "Oh nothing." Of course we had to explain. We lived though it though. Still remember it like it happened yesterday. Sadly enough the Cannon AE-1 camera didn't have anything recorded on the film. The next week a cheerleader came in, turned it on and then tried to touch the silver ball.... Pap! (us ha ha ha ha ha)
I'm glad there are others that think the same way, I am a full supporter of universal healthcare and Bernie Sanders ideology, but this whole SJW witchhunt movement has alienated me.
AC, that's one of the funniest things I've read today. I bet you don't even know what he's for. Bernie doesn't even know what he's for except he peddles the communist BS. Did you know that his honeymoon was spent in the USSR? Just google it. He's a commie and makes a lot of capitalistic money on useful idiots that believe him. Maybe even you.
The SJW witchhunt is just more socialist bullshit. They are there to divide. They only do it because they see it as a license to be an asshole. Used to be a bully would have taken care of that type of person in school.
Sounds like you don't have any experience with law enforcement. Sounds like your father never had the "police talk" with you either.
Goes along this way - they have a job to do. Sometimes they get a lot of pressure to solve the case and they're clueless. So they grasp at straws. Say your name is Barak Obama (BO for short). BO is seen at a bank that is robbed. Who did it? Well the suspect is about the size of BO and BO hangs around the bank all the time. Next thing you know BO is in the station being grilled. Just so happens BO was having fun with a Ho in the next city. Even was issued a ticket at the time the bank was held up.
At this point the cops could say - Yea, he was with a Ho in the next town.. has a ticket and move onto the real guy that did it - BC. BC was in town, staying right across the street and can see the bank. Has motive - wife has just left him penniless due to him banging woman after woman so she left him and took all his assets. He bought a gun the day before. They knew about BC, however that eye witness put BO right at the scene of the crime and the Ho is probably lying to save him.
You'd be surprised at how many times they'll go after the BO character here even though they have a solid lead on the BC character. BC they have to start all over - was he there, did he have a gun, bla bla bla.. A lot more work and the Chief want's this done by 3:00 so he can go out with his wife and bang her later. So they arrest and charge BO. Now we're in court and a jury will think they're guilty or they wouldn't be there. A prosecutor never makes mistakes, certainly not one like this! BO gets convicted and is sentenced to decades in jail. If he's lucky someone will find a camera or something and prove it really wasn't him after the fact. Even if he is let go after the arrest part, that still screws his life. Just the fact you were arrested for something bad is a hell of a monkey on your back.
So the father talk is like this - don't hang around places unless you have business there. Treat it like a toilet - get on, do your business, get off. Sure you're seen at the bank, however you were making a deposit/widrawl/etc and left the bank and didn't hang around. They'll move on. Same with liquor store, abortion clinic... and so on. Don't give police a reason to think you've done something wrong. Probably some of the soundest advice ever given on slashdot.
Now here we are on a fishing expedition with the North Carolina PD. Tell me who was in the area. Suppose I happened to be there which in my case is a posibility? I have relatives in the RDU area. Now I could be hauled in and grilled. Sometimes they'll keep a suspect there for 20, 30, I've seen as high as 72 hours in the inter. room. Sending out for food/water. So do you want to spend hours with the police while they play the game - gotcha! If they get you, you're done. Even if you make a trivial mistake it can cost you thousands. Such as you remembered you drove the wrong car that day, wrong shirt, anything that turns out that you're wrong and they can prove it. Now it's - why did you lie to us? Not - gee, you made a mistake. What else are you lying to us about? See... this guy did it! Couldn't be this poor guy in front of us is scared out of his mind.
Ramp this up to what's happening today. Ok, who was there? What are their political affiliations? Well we have 50 democrats, 50 republicans, 10 independents and 5 that are not registered. Boom, let's start with the 5 unregistered because it's just 5, then move onto the Democrats because they are far more likely to be our suspect. Just adjust this for your political view - Independents are far more likely to be our suspect or single out the black men... or single women, etc. I bet all that stuff is in google.
Most people are beginners. When they are more serious and want to be a pro, they learn and use emacs for most of their stuff. I use both, however I use emacs a lot more. Only if I need to fix/etc/passwd or some other small config file where it's just a simple change. Otherwise why use vim? Use a real tool. Even works on the bash command line by default.
No, in fact you're the problem. I've helped people see the error of their ways for decades. You're part of the problem and you'd realize it if you'd read your own posting. Why bring up the 50% bit? If you really are a libertarian and really didn't vote for Hillary, you'd know we're a Republic and that the popular vote means *NOTHING*. So why even bring it up? I could bring up the fact that WJ Clinton didn't get 50% of the vote either. That a small portion of voters bothered to even vote. So what? He was President and it was done properly. So do what conservatives did - STFU.
Bring up things that matter. Like Obummer doing very illegal things. Such as blowing off immigration with an EO for DACA. That's Congresses' perview. How about him changing the affordable care act over 20 times - which he can't do! He can only sign or veto a law, he can't fricking change it after the fact and selectively enforce it. These are just really obvious things. Then we can move onto blowing Khadaffi away and shitting young black muslims all over Europe that will eventually remove Europe from the face of the earth. In fact from the pictures I saw, they were an invasion force. They simply weren't armed. Egypt would be muslim today if the people hadn't risen up as they did and put the miserable rabid muslims down for the dogs that they are. I hope I'm painting a realistic enough picture for you to understand what I'm really saying. I'm not trying to be a troll. I could do that a lot more effectively.
I've always supported going after Republicans in the very few times they have done something wrong. However I see so many on the other side that say their shit doesn't stink. Oh no, nothing wrong with Hillary... or Obama, or Holder..and so on and so forth.
Then there is a whole other level of outrage over Ruth Ginsberg. She's not a justice based on what she has said. She's a political hack. Someone that has openly said - eh let's blow off our Constitution and adopt European laws.... and so forth. Her due date has to be coming soon I hope.
Well, don't know about you, but I haven't driven a car that got as low as 25mpg in thirty years or so.
Which makes me think you're fudging the numbers a bit....
Should tell us what you're driving. Still stuck in a shoe box sized econo box? You're probably around my age, or older. Aren't you driving a real car like a Caddy DTS or something? I usually get around 23 MPG with it. 300 HP too. Real nice to blow slow things away like Mustangs. The late model Caddys aren't like the caddys of the 1950s - 1990s. Floating clouds. However ride in a caddy, then ride in something else and what a difference. Even my Mercedes sucked side of the caddy. Of course then ride in a Chevy 1 ton... Like that song shake shake shake...Shake your booty.....
Why? Do you regularly rob convenience stores or people? Do you regularly run from cops because you have a warrant?
At least they can't be called racist. It's a machine. It can't be. Maybe people will have to finally admit that they are the problem. Not other people.
Sounds good. Do you happen to have a reference for this or did you just come up with this yourself? You see, I have friends that don't believe things without a reference.
So why does it seem like there are only like 5 guys in America, 5 guys in GB, 5 guys in Germany... and so on that realize this madness? It's like inviting homeless people into your home and never watching them.
If we stop labeling them with words like "republican" then perhaps we will see these people for who they really are?
Should clarify. Do you mean Republicans in name only (RINO) or a real Republican? Strip away the word Democrat and you'll see who they really are - racist bigots. Just look up Senator Byrd - a recent Senator. Also a KKK Grand Dragon. Right back to Dem Governor Wallace and the Jim Crowe laws. This goes back to the civil war. The Dems were the south, the Reps were the Union. They've been trying to destroy the US ever since the civil war.
That's the point. They don't want to, nor will they change. They think they can just walk in and take over. Once they get to a certain point, they'll just take over and kill those they don't like. Europe is about to be lost. Lost in the political correctness BS.
Don't mod me down, come up with why I'm wrong, or mod me up. If you have any clue about what's going on, you'll mod me up.
The thing is they are thinking that they advanced. We're STILL stuck using an X86 architecture, from the 1970s. 40 frickin years and we've had better. Yet we can't get rid of X86. So why do we think they would be able to get around their idiot managers?

AC, that's one of the funniest things I've read today. I bet you don't even know what he's for. Bernie doesn't even know what he's for except he peddles the communist BS. Did you know that his honeymoon was spent in the USSR? Just google it. He's a commie and makes a lot of capitalistic money on useful idiots that believe him. Maybe even you.
The SJW witchhunt is just more socialist bullshit. They are there to divide. They only do it because they see it as a license to be an asshole. Used to be a bully would have taken care of that type of person in school.
Sounds like you don't have any experience with law enforcement. Sounds like your father never had the "police talk" with you either.
Goes along this way - they have a job to do. Sometimes they get a lot of pressure to solve the case and they're clueless. So they grasp at straws.
Say your name is Barak Obama (BO for short). BO is seen at a bank that is robbed. Who did it? Well the suspect is about the size of BO and BO hangs around the bank all the time. Next thing you know BO is in the station being grilled. Just so happens BO was having fun with a Ho in the next city. Even was issued a ticket at the time the bank was held up.
At this point the cops could say - Yea, he was with a Ho in the next town.. has a ticket and move onto the real guy that did it - BC. BC was in town, staying right across the street and can see the bank. Has motive - wife has just left him penniless due to him banging woman after woman so she left him and took all his assets. He bought a gun the day before. They knew about BC, however that eye witness put BO right at the scene of the crime and the Ho is probably lying to save him.
You'd be surprised at how many times they'll go after the BO character here even though they have a solid lead on the BC character. BC they have to start all over - was he there, did he have a gun, bla bla bla.. A lot more work and the Chief want's this done by 3:00 so he can go out with his wife and bang her later. So they arrest and charge BO. Now we're in court and a jury will think they're guilty or they wouldn't be there. A prosecutor never makes mistakes, certainly not one like this! BO gets convicted and is sentenced to decades in jail. If he's lucky someone will find a camera or something and prove it really wasn't him after the fact. Even if he is let go after the arrest part, that still screws his life. Just the fact you were arrested for something bad is a hell of a monkey on your back.
So the father talk is like this - don't hang around places unless you have business there. Treat it like a toilet - get on, do your business, get off. Sure you're seen at the bank, however you were making a deposit/widrawl/etc and left the bank and didn't hang around. They'll move on. Same with liquor store, abortion clinic... and so on. Don't give police a reason to think you've done something wrong. Probably some of the soundest advice ever given on slashdot.
Now here we are on a fishing expedition with the North Carolina PD. Tell me who was in the area. Suppose I happened to be there which in my case is a posibility? I have relatives in the RDU area. Now I could be hauled in and grilled. Sometimes they'll keep a suspect there for 20, 30, I've seen as high as 72 hours in the inter. room. Sending out for food/water. So do you want to spend hours with the police while they play the game - gotcha! If they get you, you're done. Even if you make a trivial mistake it can cost you thousands. Such as you remembered you drove the wrong car that day, wrong shirt, anything that turns out that you're wrong and they can prove it. Now it's - why did you lie to us? Not - gee, you made a mistake. What else are you lying to us about? See... this guy did it! Couldn't be this poor guy in front of us is scared out of his mind.
Ramp this up to what's happening today. Ok, who was there? What are their political affiliations? Well we have 50 democrats, 50 republicans, 10 independents and 5 that are not registered. Boom, let's start with the 5 unregistered because it's just 5, then move onto the Democrats because they are far more likely to be our suspect. Just adjust this for your political view - Independents are far more likely to be our suspect or single out the black men... or single women, etc. I bet all that stuff is in google.
Ugh... Really? You really said *THAT*.
Go to your room without supper. Think about what you typed in here.
Most people are beginners. When they are more serious and want to be a pro, they learn and use emacs for most of their stuff. I use both, however I use emacs a lot more. Only if I need to fix /etc/passwd or some other small config file where it's just a simple change. Otherwise why use vim? Use a real tool. Even works on the bash command line by default.
So, doesn't surprise me.
Not Cleaver? I think I hit too close to home.
No, in fact you're the problem. I've helped people see the error of their ways for decades. You're part of the problem and you'd realize it if you'd read your own posting. Why bring up the 50% bit? If you really are a libertarian and really didn't vote for Hillary, you'd know we're a Republic and that the popular vote means *NOTHING*. So why even bring it up? I could bring up the fact that WJ Clinton didn't get 50% of the vote either. That a small portion of voters bothered to even vote. So what? He was President and it was done properly. So do what conservatives did - STFU.
Bring up things that matter. Like Obummer doing very illegal things. Such as blowing off immigration with an EO for DACA. That's Congresses' perview. How about him changing the affordable care act over 20 times - which he can't do! He can only sign or veto a law, he can't fricking change it after the fact and selectively enforce it. These are just really obvious things. Then we can move onto blowing Khadaffi away and shitting young black muslims all over Europe that will eventually remove Europe from the face of the earth. In fact from the pictures I saw, they were an invasion force. They simply weren't armed. Egypt would be muslim today if the people hadn't risen up as they did and put the miserable rabid muslims down for the dogs that they are. I hope I'm painting a realistic enough picture for you to understand what I'm really saying. I'm not trying to be a troll. I could do that a lot more effectively.
I've always supported going after Republicans in the very few times they have done something wrong. However I see so many on the other side that say their shit doesn't stink. Oh no, nothing wrong with Hillary... or Obama, or Holder..and so on and so forth.
Then there is a whole other level of outrage over Ruth Ginsberg. She's not a justice based on what she has said. She's a political hack. Someone that has openly said - eh let's blow off our Constitution and adopt European laws.... and so forth. Her due date has to be coming soon I hope.

Can't beat perfection.
Well, don't know about you, but I haven't driven a car that got as low as 25mpg in thirty years or so.
Which makes me think you're fudging the numbers a bit....
Should tell us what you're driving. Still stuck in a shoe box sized econo box? You're probably around my age, or older. Aren't you driving a real car like a Caddy DTS or something? I usually get around 23 MPG with it. 300 HP too. Real nice to blow slow things away like Mustangs.
The late model Caddys aren't like the caddys of the 1950s - 1990s. Floating clouds. However ride in a caddy, then ride in something else and what a difference. Even my Mercedes sucked side of the caddy. Of course then ride in a Chevy 1 ton... Like that song shake shake shake...Shake your booty.....
it is the AI with firearms that i worry about.
Why? Do you regularly rob convenience stores or people? Do you regularly run from cops because you have a warrant?
At least they can't be called racist. It's a machine. It can't be. Maybe people will have to finally admit that they are the problem. Not other people.
Have to wonder. Do you have a little shrine to Hillary in your house? Bunch of burned out candles around it? Wear Hillary panties?
Go listen to your new leaders of the Democratic party - a bunch of teenagers from a Florida High School. They seem to be running your show now.
Shesh... move on dude. You'll have another loser to whine about in 2020.
Just give in to those who whine a bitch too much. Oh it's too hard to change clocks. bla bla bla.
Should be STFU, change 'em. You know it's the right thing to do. No, you're not a victim. Shut up.
Sounds good. Do you happen to have a reference for this or did you just come up with this yourself? You see, I have friends that don't believe things without a reference.
So why does it seem like there are only like 5 guys in America, 5 guys in GB, 5 guys in Germany... and so on that realize this madness? It's like inviting homeless people into your home and never watching them.
If we stop labeling them with words like "republican" then perhaps we will see these people for who they really are?
Should clarify. Do you mean Republicans in name only (RINO) or a real Republican?
Strip away the word Democrat and you'll see who they really are - racist bigots. Just look up Senator Byrd - a recent Senator. Also a KKK Grand Dragon. Right back to Dem Governor Wallace and the Jim Crowe laws. This goes back to the civil war. The Dems were the south, the Reps were the Union. They've been trying to destroy the US ever since the civil war.
That's the point. They don't want to, nor will they change. They think they can just walk in and take over. Once they get to a certain point, they'll just take over and kill those they don't like. Europe is about to be lost. Lost in the political correctness BS.
Don't mod me down, come up with why I'm wrong, or mod me up. If you have any clue about what's going on, you'll mod me up.
The thing is they are thinking that they advanced. We're STILL stuck using an X86 architecture, from the 1970s. 40 frickin years and we've had better. Yet we can't get rid of X86. So why do we think they would be able to get around their idiot managers?
Pointy haired bosses of the cosmos.
