Guns are always going to blamed, right now they might be the easiest tool for killing people, but they are not the only tool. Lets say we waved a wand and all guns disappeared, would mass killings stop? Would they slow down? Sure, for a short time, until some nut went on a rampage in his 5000lb suit of armor, then every nut that wanted to kill people, would just grab some car keys. to be perfectly honest, a car is the better weapon for mass killing anyway. We have a sick society that needs to be healed, I don't know what that would take, but someone on a mission to kill, will kill. Taking away my right to defend myself, is not going to make anything better.Cops can not protect you, hell a gun cant always protect you, but why should i lose one of the best tools for defense because some criminal hurt some people?
Guns are BY FAR the easiest way to kill people. If you took away all the guns the mass killings would decrease drastically. I agree society is sick. It's all the more reason not to make guns readily available so that the sick can take down innocents. Name me a mass killing that happened with a car driven by a deranged killer. Go on...I dare you. Look it up...I'll wait.
Might be better to direct that to the person who originally posted the picture. Some people need an object lesson on dangerous their "tool" is. Maybe a dead child provides that necessary education sadly.
I just don't think anyone has tried it yet, that doesn't make guns the better kill spree tool, how would you stop my f250 in a crowded mall? I would be in no danger of being harmed, free to carry on trying to kill people else where.
Now it's sad? A second ago you expressed your desire to see that infant dead so that there would be "one less dumb redneck in the gene pool"...but now it's sad...yeah, okay.
Oooohhh isn't that sweet....this is an example of another dumb arse yank playing with a gun thinking that it would make a funny photo if the kid had the gun in its mouth....an example of how stupid some yanks are....god help the baby... the mother looks as though the lights are on but no-ones home.....
Perhaps I should just continue shaking my head in disgust at the person who wished death on an infant...
You're a right yob aren't you? Go fill your esky with 4X and take a fair dinkum walk off a short pier.
I lived in Oz for four years pal. I went to school with this crazy -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irfan_Yusuf. I know you've got enough nuts there to fill Sydney harbor. That's what happens when your draconian school system caned children right into the 1980s. And your all boys schools are a breeding ground for sexually repressed infantile men. Thank God I got out of that rank penal colony in time to prevent permanent damage. Too bad for you eh?
I watch several MSM national news programs, and not one mentioned the shooter was mexican. Figures!!!!
And predictably the gun nuts will accuse those nations of being disarmed/emasculated/hating freedom/having their liberties removed. You choose the cliche.
That's exactly what i mean. A few men can easily outnumber a guy with a knife if they try, or at least run away... and even if he went crazy, he can only pursue one at a time but with a gun you can just shoot them all even if they run. Not counting that many of those mass murderers like to carry more than one gun for their purpose, so to kill as many as possible. Anyway, i understand the position of gun owning defenders too, it looks like american govt is purposely confiscating people's guns, so that any form of armed rebellion would be impossible. So in the end, what can i say? Well, i suppose it's up to americans to realize what is really going on. Anyway i would feel safer if people could not so easily afford a gun and shoot me right away.
