Today they proposed putting armed police in all schools saying the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is by having a good guy with a gun. Then the statement went on to say we need a national data base of the mentally ill.

I suspect that will only lead to crazy people collecting data on other crazy people and mentally ill people with guns patrolling our schools on the look out for mentally ill people coming to school with guns.

APOCALYPSEFUCK is Shostakovich says

They supported gun control when the Panthers started carrying hardware.

That was why I have always disliked the NRA.

You are correct, and I had forgotten about it.

They flip flop on gun rights, that are supposed to be for every one.

Good guys with guns

As in the police?

I hope their bad ideas die off with them, fascist fucktard mother fuckers

"Indeed LaPierre blamed everything but guns: video games, decade-old movies, you name it. "

Anyone that thinks our society can continue on this route, GUNS or no GUNS, is really fooling them selves. I only see to out comes. The first one would really be oppressive and would be a very slippery slope to realizing our worst fears about everything that is wrong with Government censorship and Dictators silencing freedom of speech.
The second option would be very easy, but the ball is the court of our entertainment industry. They could chose to scawf at the idea, while curing out an endless parade of mind rotting violent movies, perverse story plots, Dark comedy with sociopaths doing evil shit, without a shred of remorse, teen sex and violence people committing heinous crimes while being the Hero of the movie. And then there's music that exploits women, glorifies homicide and instills the hood culture in preteens. Who believe if you're disrespected it's your right to bust a cap in someone's ass. There hasn't been a block buster with a the good guy wins plot, or a feel good story in years.

Am I glad it's come to this, NO. But I think it's a shame that the Media has been hell bent on pushing the envelope every since the Violence debate was ever waged. Their win became their excuse to push filth and violence on our youth utilizing every available medium.
Before it wasn't that bad, as the content did fit the plots and, there were still some good solid story telling for alternatives. Now there's no escape, it's just a constant bombardment. Any non edgy (violence, sex, crime) story plots, it seems they go out of their way to make the worst cheesy movie they could possibly make.

And let's not kid our selves, the Liberal channels have been producing a shitload of Gun Culture reality shows, which now they are back peddling on. I guess getting the Conservative NRA ratings, was more important than their principals. But now that Violence is back in the spot light, rather than taking an honest look at them selves, it's just easier to blame the people that they were just pandering to with the shows like "Gun Country" "American Guns" "Sharp Shooters" ect...

Also when these tragedies come, they never want to look at productions they've made like "Natural Born killers" or Video games that were created like "Assassins Creed".

It would be alot easier to get rid of the bad programming content, by just not airing it, than it would be to get rid of 300 million guns.
My suggestion to a nation armed with 300 million guns, would be, you better make nice. We're not getting any wiser.

It is not just guns that can turn into a weapon. Isn't it a good idea to have a police officer in every school, regardless of how fast they can respond? And even if you have gun control, what do you do with the guns out there already? I think gun control is a good idea. But I also thought having police offices in school was a good idea.

Most realtors are NAR and NRA members. ;)

One = National Association Of Rodents

The other = National Rodent Association

(It's important to understand these basic differences..)

Japan has 1 death per 1.5 million people while the U.S.A. has 10 in 100,000 people. The facts are there. No dispute.

I like how everyone talks about how Japan doesn't have any guns.
They never had guns, they went straight from Feudalism to the Modern era with out ever having guns.

But they did once have a warrior class, that would have been their gun owners when the modern era arrived.
You great students of History remember how they got rid of all of the Samurai right?

That would be the only way we would get rid of our gun culture as well.
By prying the guns from the fingers of the NRA card members. They weren't lying, this is serious stuff.
