    Because I said KILLING SOMETHING, not crime.

    I'm willing to bet you the house I don't own that there are far more uses for a car then there are for a gun.

    Is it that you can't read or you don't want to? Did I say "trampling ALL rights"? Go back and quote me correctly.

    Please stop trying to give arguments. You're just not good at it. Once again you use ludicrously inept analogies. If people were killing other people with night then it would work. If the night was for nothing else but killing people, then it would work. Neither applies.

    Did you know that "average citizens" aren't allowed to handle plutonium? Don't you think that's an outrageous lack of trust? Think of all the legitimate uses they might discover for plutonium if Big Brother wasn't trampling on them and their rights.

    Didn't automatic weapons get banned in 1994? None of the weapons reportedly used today, or in Clackamas, or Gabby Giffords' attempted assassination have been reported as automatic weapons. :dunno:

    I already explained why. You just didn't quote that portion of my post.

    Paperweights. Vases for long-stem roses. Prosthetic limbs. Novelty golf clubs. You're right, I'd never really thought about it.

    The ban was allowed to expire.

    That would require
    1. Reading the argument.
    2. Understanding logic.

    Tear ducts are on the inside of the eye, not the outside.

    Just saying...

    the ban, iirc, was lifted in 04 (if we're talking about the same thing)

    60% of murders are with guns, which means (lemme check the math...) 40% are with methods other than guns. There's a stronger correlation between people being killed at night than people being killed with a gun.

    What method of logic allows you to say that the Second Amendment can be trampled to save one life, but the Third and Fourth shouldn't be trampled to save that same life?

    But keep up with the personal attacks if you think that's working for you.

    so if we ban all new gun sales, what happens to the 300,000,000 guns already out there?

    I see and stand corrected. So I can't buy a handgun, but someone somewhere can legally buy an automatic machine gun?

    Turn them in by force by the military. I'd start first with white Republicans, knocking door-by-door with search warrants.

    And RGIII, too. He might be a GOP member as well. Some guy on ESPN says he may be an Oreo.

    um...you've never seen someone have a tear come from the outside of the eye?

    and your comment, and the pathetic picture posted in the OP, are just that. pathetic.

    Call me cynical. All I've seen from politicians all day are calls for gun control. Obama just sent $1billion worth of missiles to Morsi. I wonder if any kids will be killed by those weapons?

    EDIT - Is everybody here a "global moderator" here these days? LOL

    S2 now has its own caste system.

    I believe all gun owners are upstanding people and they that would feel the moral obligation to turn them in.
