    I wonder if the thousands and thousands of people who are killed by guns find them fun. Maybe assault weapons are fun to you but they shouldn’t be they are not used for hunting in the silliness of the government tyranny. Yeah you’re really going to take on the army

    1st person shooter games need to be regulated the same as guns. In order to buy or possess you have to have a background check, can't be a felon and no indication of mental illness. There should also be a required video game safety class.

    Says the guy who makes up crap. You don't know anything about Japan. But - but-, I'll play. The Japanese are a very the theist based society. Maybe if we hadn't kicked God out of our schools we'd have less violence. And before you ask - I'm not a Christian.
    Bower Bird likes to point at India as an example and they have even more Gods than the Japanese.

    Theist based society? Are you kidding? What God is worshipped in zen buddhism?

    Get ready to learn something. Lol

    Shinto is actually the majority religion in Japan, and it along with numerous forms of buddhism (note its not buddhism at all) also embraced there contemplate spirits and all sorts of funky ****. You telling me you didn't know that? Or did you just assume since that's what you know from TV?

    You're welcome

    Jesus christ. Theist. As in to believe in a deity or deities. Shinto (or as its translated WAY OF THE GODS) believes in deities. Shintos are theist.

    Can you not take 10 seconds to do some basic research before you shoot your mouth off?

    Fancy. Maybe in your mindfulness meditation you'll question why your pride encourages you to go off half-cocked like that

    You should question your beliefs and what they say about engaging with the world for the sake of ego and pride, as you do here.

    You'll never unbind yourself from samsara like that, o wise and learned one. < I'm glad that little nickname I chose for you so long ago was apt without me even knowing it.

    That is incorrect. Other people are allowed to look at the Constitution and make such determinations as well.

    Wrong. I have facts.

    Mine counts too. That's why unconstitutional gun laws get blocked before they are even passed.

    Now that we've cleared up that you know not of what you speak, care to re-engage in the discussion or are you going to keep deflecting?

    We left off here: "

    Wrong. My views are backed by facts, by logic, by history, by the law, and by the Constitution.

    No, I understand that very well.

    So?

    Educate yourself. You'll feel better about it once you know more.

    I was not confronted with a fact.

    I said "nonsense" in response to an untrue statement.

    The only consequences of our civil rights are that we get to live in a free country.

    The idea that gun owners do not observe safety rules is more nonsense.

    No worse than being killed with a knife.

    Why not? What's wrong with having fun?

    Yes they are.

    Hopefully we'll never have tyranny in America. We are certainly better at preserving freedom than anywhere else in the world is.

    They are always trying to violate our right to keep and bear arms.
