Gun control debate (merged)

The gun control crowd is still willing to negotiate with children and fools.
You have it a little backwards..........It's the children and fools that are refusing to negotiate.

Why would y'all negotiate amongst yourselves?

You guys have nothing to negotiate with, you bring nothing of value to the negotiating table. Just like children you think you have something to offer when in reality you have nothing but temper tantrums.
 
Come on.

The fact that laws do not stop all crime is an accepted fact. To use that fact as rationale for no new laws or as an argument against improving the laws is simpleminded.

I've always been for continually evaluating the effectiveness and fairness of laws and making appropriate changes.
What law that you know of actually stops crime? Seriously. No law stops a crime. Not a single one.

Well, you know what they say, children are our future - so in that regard, you may be onto something.
 
That's what I keep asking, WTH do they have to offer?
They want us to cede territory, essentially.

A compromise involves two sides agreeing to concessions.
What exactly are they going to give up?

I try not to ask what they are offering, that just sounds more like a transaction. And it opens the door for idiots to say - “no more dead children!”

What thing we never talk about in these threads is the drug. Just like prohibition of alcohol, prohibition of drugs has caused mass violence.

The black homicide rate is about 10x the white rate. A large reason for that is gang related violence and those gangs are overwhelmingly involved in the drug trade
 
It’s his way of saying “ban them all” without saying “ban them all” because we’ve told him they’re all going to fire at almost the exact same rate and that semiautomatics make up the vast majority of all guns on the market
So limiting something based on someone's skin melatonin content isn't racist to him. It has to specifically point out race. The only reason I can see for continuing to allow him to post on VN is the absolute number of clicks his trolling generates.

No law stops all crime. Pretty much every law reduces the amount of the illegal activity.
No law stops a crime, ever. The same as no gun kills anyone, ever (unless you are a liberal like Alec "it just went off" Baldwin. People (the potential criminal) have to be willing to obey the law (the tool) the same as someone (the potential criminal) has to be willing to use a gun (the tool) to kill someone. Limiting or increasing the number of tools doesn't diminish the willingness of the potential criminal.
 
Don’t know about Florida, but most states do have laws about private sales. For example, pretty Ga and Tn it is illegal to sell a gun to someone you know is disqualified from owning one for some reason. Not arguing the efficacy of such laws, but there are some…
You can't sell to someone out of state either.

What a load of meaningless nonsense.
No gun kills anyone, but every gun was designed specifically to kill people (according to the gun nuts on here yesterday).

When the instances of a particular undesirable action are reduced by the passing of a law, then it's safe to conclude that the law reduced the instances of the particular action.
