If you apply that same type of thinking to auto’s / driving a car then we would not have any more car accidents, or stolen cars....

Thats an all or nothing approach and not even remotely valid.


If only you had to take a test to learn to drive a car....
If you had to show proof of insurance to register your car...
If we only had a way to lic each auto we could identify each auto.....

Car accidents kill more kids, elderly and family’s than guns. Driving is a privilege and not a right.

Yet the number of deaths per mile driven is a fraction of what it was 50 years ago. Do you think that happened by accident?


Yes, some people shouldn’t own fire arms. And there way more people that shouldnt drive a car. Is it silly to compare the 2?

Its absolutely valid to compare the two as long as you do so normalizing the Use VS. Fatality data.

LOL.

Your data is bullshit. More accidents then EVER every year, the only reason deaths have been reduced is because of safety systems and additions of vehicle control systems like ABS, Airbags, Stability Control, on to the nanny state bullshit like lane protection and collision avoidance, BAS etc.

Cars are safer through better engineering, people are getting worse at driving due to shit like cell phones, texting while driving etc.

you should definitely be offended. I could have a house at the river. But have to put my kid in private school because of the gay and transgender disforia groups and their agenda. They push for acceptance just so they can accept themselves.

It affects You,
It affects your kids,
It affects your grandkids.

The mindset of "not my issue, doesn't affect me" is just a lazy excuse to not have to act.

When a 35 yr old "trans" (cross dressing weirdo man) is STATE MANDATED allowed to teach your 5 year old! In a state required education kindergarten room. You'll F*cking care!
I hope you ain't got 'em in a catholic school.......:eek:

So you are saying technology can make things safer in spite of stupidity...?

What is this shit with this modern trend of taking pride in and showing off your sexuality?

I could care less what someones sexuality is, but time was you never had an excess of pride nor did you advertise it.

Sex is a private thing that should stay that way. And why should I care whether you are hetero, homo, or whatever?
None of it offends me though, it's too stupid to waste any emotional energy on.
I draw the line before it stops sexy ladies of varying ages and styles from advertising their assets.....I want to know their inner feelings and desires and appreciate their dedication to throwing me hints of what the possibilities could be if a respectable opportunity were to arise, so to speak.

Great wa
I was taught from an early age there is no such thing as a firearm accident... So lets lessen accidents.

Must demonstrate a minimum level of knowledge and proficiency before being able to purchase and own a firearm.

Storage
Handling
Transporting
Marksmanship (?)

Unless you can prove the above no sale to you.

Teeth in the registration laws. The last legal owner of the firearm is responsible to some extent for the weapon. Your stolen firearm used in a crime you have a civil responsibility for what happened. Weapon stolen out of your gun safe (That you had to prove you owned before having the right to purchase) you are 0% responsible for. Gun stolen from the console of your F150... You are going to pay dearly. (Or your insurance company is...)

Your three year old shoots her brother with the pistol out of your nightstand its negligent homicide and you are going to jail.

Weapons manufactures open to legal action for negligence. Smart weapon technology exists, its not being adopted because it doesn't need to be... Lets change that.

The above puts the majority of the burden on the gun manufacturers and law abiding owners... Who the hell else is going to do anything ???
Great way to start a black market and turn the nation into a socialist disaster as your side tries for each cycle they rise up like political acne trying to destroy god and constitutional rights of the citizens.

How's that for view of the politics in the lounge you brought here.:eek::rolleyes:

"Start" a black market... Got it.

Funny how not a single thing I have ever mentioned would hinder a responsible gun owner in any way shape or form...

Why do you insist on supporting criminals free access to weapons in this manner?
