row_33 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 just sitting here in my cozy office thinking about how silly it is for people to want guns, and we shouldn't kill, so why can't we just hand them all in and let peace prevail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except here's the part you are glossing over: a big reason that the government failed to save lives, is that with laws as written law enforcement had no ability to permanently take them away: https://www.npr.org/2018/04/23/605044996/why-the-waffle-house-shooting-suspect-had-access-to-guns-after-his-were-seized I think there's a reasonable debate to be had whether citizens should have some form of compulsory military training to act as a militia in case of invasion, but there's a lot of untrained people out there with guns and none of the training to use them safely. Assuming that everybody packing in that Waffle House would have made things safer is crazy. I have BEEN to my share of Waffle Houses, and no one makes good decisions in them. Translated : "I believe that there is a good argument that the government should be able to compel individuals by force to fight and die for the things the government wishes them to, and I also think the government should be able to prevent people from opposing them from doing so."

And oh look, he was stopped by an unarmed black man, who had the chance to wrestle it away because the shooter didn't have an expanded magazine. Clearly, we're going to see this man called a hero by the president and the evident value of limited magazine size should be screamed from the rooftops! Do you have a link for this?

James Shaw Jr. is a hero and deserves to be hailed as such. You know what would have been better? If James Shaw Jr. or another law-abiding citizen were carrying a firearm and smoked the tweaker as soon as they saw danger. Maybe it would have saved a couple lives that the government, despite all their laws (that, again, failed), could not save. Was that meant as parody?

Let's compromise and say "You want these guns? You have to sign up for proper regulation and training, solely for the purpose of functioning in your militia unit" There, constitutional problem solved. Or do you just want to be a man baby?

As you are clearly unfamiliar in the American Constituion and its amendments, you would not know that the there are limits. You are not allowed to yell "Fire" in a crowded theater. Free speech does not extend to telling an accomplice to murder someone. So, am I ok with banning certain weapons outside of a well regulated militia? Yes. If someone is a clear and present danger, is there an overwhelming public good to prevent immanent disaster? I am ok with it. But let's have some common sense **** here gentlemen. 2 minutes ago, TakeYouToTasker said: The reason the suspect had access to guns is because guns had already been invented a few hundred years ago, and laws that criminalize guns only keep guns out of the hands of the law abiding. !@#$s like this who seek to kill people aren't discouraged by the law.

Or, maybe, or, if he is clearly an imminent risk, we, oh I don't know MAKE IT HARDER FOR HIM TO GET AN AR-15 And again, his lack of an extended magazine saved lives. So how are we even debating this part? Oh, right, you didn't because you have no leg to stand on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps if you had any idea how the English language works, and knew how to diagram a sentence in order to understand the ideas being conveyed, you might understand the Second Amendment. Instead you're demonstrating that you're functionally illiterate, and are making the same case for the powers of government that our Founders threw off. I haven't side stepped the issue at all. Your lack of skill with the language has tricked you into thinking that I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "dude" asked when people had previously taken his guns away. If you want to press a constitutional issue, that's a deeper question, but let us at least state for the record that with the current laws, a man who, upon multiple occasions, had shown violent aberrant behavior, had his guns returned to him I can did deep and debate the constituionality until I am blue in the face. We can circle on the role of government, and what force it can take and form all types of syllogisms But lets get down to brass tacks. No BS This is a man who a blind deaf and dumb moron could tell was dangerous. And with the laws, as they are, he was returned weapons of deadly force. Multiple times. And then, he went on a rampage. He bought his weapons legally. They were returned to him, legally. Everything was legal until he walked up and shot a whole bunch of people. If you think this is ok, I don't know how to debate with you, because you live in a fantasy world where that is ok. 28 minutes ago, 3rdnlng said: That doesn't say what you think it does.

Not only are you ignoring that I have provided evidence that supports that the assailant had his weapons seized and returned to him, you change the subject to trying to attack my grammar.
