Angry Crazy People With Guns - Nutjobs - What Can We Really Do? - Surrender To The NRA?

[Yallow]

Time to start finding some answers.

[GGJohn]

1. Another one?

Now you're just spamming the board.

[Hoyt]

2. If he's spamming anyone, it's those who think gunz are sacrosanct.

[GGJohn]

4. LOL.

You're a hoot Hoyt.
The OP is in the minority here, as are you.

[Yallow]

6. The Minority? Surrender To The NRA And Weapons Profiteers? Do Nothing?

I don't think I'm in the minority.

[GGJohn]

9. Maybe you should read this.

[Yallow]

3. Ever Visited Planned Parenthood?

A theater?

A school?

Church?

Hey GG, it's my day off..... and I'm pissed.

Nothing is getting done.

Zero

I may post some more threads.

It easy for nut jobs to get guns and that just isn't right.

[GGJohn]

5. Been to all 4,

PP with my one of my daughter's
Theaters every now and then
Attend my grandkids school when there is a function going on
Attend church on occasion.

What's the relevance?

[Yallow]

7. Columbine, Sandy Hook, Aurora, PP, You Get It

Well armed mentally ill folks.

Columbine is even crazier.

[GGJohn]

8. All of which are, relatively speaking,

rare occasions considering how many firearms are in private hands.

I don't walk around in fear of my fellow Americans who may or may not have firearms, I've got much better things to do with my life.

[Hoyt]

26. Yes yoy do, every time you strap on your gunz or practice.

[GGJohn]

51. And I say no I don't,

and I would know much better than you.

[branford]

32. All the listed places are also "gun free zones."

The irony has not been lost on most people in the gun rights side of the debate.

[GGJohn]

52. Very true. eom.

[Hoyt]

54. Like a gun toting yahoo, or two, would have made a difference.

[GGJohn]

55. Ya know Hoyt,

people might take you more seriously if you would act like an adult instead of constantly spouting insults towards those you disagree with.
Jus sayin.

[Hoyt]

59. Actually, GG, I'm not here to make friends with those that stock multiple gun safes.

[GGJohn]

60. Never said anything about making friends,

I said that people would take you more seriously if you acted like an adult and had an adult conversation with those you disagree with.

Always mentioning my firearms safes?
Does it really bug you that bad?

[pintobean]

15. Looks like a threat, to me.

[Hoyt]

66. That's the problem with gunners, they see "threats" where they don't exist.

[pintobean]

67. Do they? I wouldn't know, Hoyt.

Read that post again and consider the fact that the poster says he owns firearms. It looks like a threat to me.

[Logical]

20. You whine a lot about gun posts. What a shock! Hide the post and quit whining. nt

[GGJohn]

22. You sure do whine alot about my posting about firearms.

What a shock! Take your own advice and quit whining.

[Logical]

23. You have one reason to be here. I get it. nt

[GGJohn]

25. I have many reasons to be here,

but that's really none of your business now is it?

[Logical]

31. Of course it is. Motive. Helps seeing who is trying to sell something. nt

[darkangel218]

42. What are you accusing GG of "selling"??

This is a discussion board! We all have different opinions.
It's funny how you try to hush people here. Maybe you should take your own advice for once.

[GGJohn]

49. Thank you darkangel218.

[darkangel218]

56. .

[darkangel218]

38. It looks like it.

*sighs*

[sarisataka]

10. I can't turn away

[GGJohn]

12. LOL.

Now that's a train wreck.

[virginia mountainman]

16. Thats classic!

[darkangel218]

39. Lol!

[Shandris]

11. No, you should take self defense into your own hands.

If you can't do that, that is unfortunate. However, that unfortunateness is not sufficient to remove defense from millions of Americans no matter how upset you are.

[Yallow]

13. Maybe All Them Kiddies At Sandy Hook Should Have Had Guns

To defend themselves!

Do you have anyone you know who worships their guns, and are disturbed? I do.

I have a few friends, and I wonder why it is so important that they carry, and the odds of shooting themselves or their kids are insanely high, compared to using the gun for any kind of defense.

http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2013/01/pro-gun-myths-fact-check

Got insurance?

[GGJohn]

14. Have you contacted the appropriate authorities and voiced your concerns to them?

If not, then you are part of the problem.

I have a CHL, in no way am I any danger to society at large, just those that have a desire to harm me or my wife.

MotherJones?

[cherokeeprogressive]

17. If you know people with guns and they're crazy, YOU should be prosecuted if they harm someone.

If what you said is true; "Do you have anyone you know who worships their guns, and are disturbed? I do.", then YOU should be held legally responsible for their actions if they injure or kill someone on purpose.

If you don't do that; YOU ARE AS MUCH A PART OF THE PROBLEM AS ANY CRAZY PERSON WITH A GUN.

I'm fucking blown away that you don't see that.

[Yallow]

18. Being A Little Paranoid And "MUST HAVE" Guns Attitude

A few of my friends.

I am from a rural part of the state.

Most people probably have guns there.

[GGJohn]

21. Then you damn well know that the vast majority firearm owners

are not the problem.

[cherokeeprogressive]

24. Backin' away from what you said?

"Do you have anyone you know who worships their guns, and are disturbed? I do."

This says in no uncertain terms that you know people who HAVE guns (worships their guns), and are disturbed.

If any of those people you mentioned cause an active shooter incident, you should be charged as an accomplice.

[madinmaryland]

30. Thanks for your reply, Mr. LaPierre. It is so welcome here on a "Democratic Party" web site.

SMH.

[branford]

33. It seems we need another reminder of the actual Democratic Platform concerning firearms.

https://www.democrats.org/party-platform

Firearms. We recognize that the individual right to bear arms is an important part of the American tradition, and we will preserve Americans' Second Amendment right to own and use firearms. We believe that the right to own firearms is subject to reasonable regulation. We understand the terrible consequences of gun violence; it serves as a reminder that life is fragile, and our time here is limited and precious. We believe in an honest, open national conversation about firearms. We can focus on effective enforcement of existing laws, especially strengthening our background check system, and we can work together to enact commonsense improvements—like reinstating the assault weapons ban and closing the gun show loophole—so that guns do not fall into the hands of those irresponsible, law-breaking few.

[Shandris]

36. I'm sorry, you seem to have mistaken 'Democratic' for 'Monolithic'.

A simple mistake anyone could make. The letters are SO similar, after all.

Anyways, that's about all the response a shoddy attempt at mockery deserves. Have a pleasant evening.

[ileus]

19. Why won't gunz stop killing people.

[Hoyt]

27. Because the NRA and sympathizers like most gungeoneers promote gunz, lethal accessories, etc.

[ileus]

28. those rude toters...

[Hoyt]

29. You got it.

[cherokeeprogressive]

34. You'd have an oz. of credibility if you'd stop using euphemisms meant to shame people into agreeing

with you, and started talking like an adult.

An ounce. Not much more than that; but it's something.

[Waldorf]

35. Whats a lethal accessory?

[cherokeeprogressive]

40. To Hoyt that's probably a holster or set of grips. n/t

[virginia mountainman]

41. Naw...

It's the thing that goes up!!

[cherokeeprogressive]

43. The thing that goes up... LOL.

You're probably right.

[Hoyt]

46. Can't find my photo from the gun store that specializes in confederate flag grips,

appatently a favorite on many gunners.

[cherokeeprogressive]

48. Is it the confederate flag that makes the grips lethal?

[Hoyt]

50. It's the racism, hatred, intimidation, all fueled by gun "empowerment."

[Hoyt]

44. If you weren't steeped in the gun culture BS, it would be obvious to you.

[Waldorf]

53. I'm serious. I know you hate guns but I still don't know what a lethal accessory is.

[EX500rider]

58. Only "lethal accessory" I know of is a bayonette...lol

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

37. Rebuild the inpatient psychiatric care system

America needs mental institutions more than almost anything else.

[virginia mountainman]

47. Agreed...

But it is far harder to do that, and demonizing an inanimate object is much easier.

[Yallow]

62. Treating All Republicans For Mental Disease Would Be Expensive

I don't think we could afford that.

[GGJohn]

63. You really think only repubs have mental disease's?

You think that no other political party have their share of mental people?

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

64. But it would be an interesting exercise to see by the standards of 1950

how many mass shooters would have likely been institutionalized before their killing sprees.

[uppityperson]

45. What can we do? You say melt all guns, you say you own a gun, you call out angry craxy people

What can we do? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

[hollowdweller]

57. the people who feel strongly about guns vote

There are enough people who are against any restriction of guns that they can put people in office.

The democrats can't even get union members or people who depend on social programs to reliably vote, so to get the gun control people to vote as a block is hard.

Also there are a lot of dems who vote against any politician who is for gun control, and ALL republicans do. There are not enough republicans who vote for gun control.

So it's a matter of bipartisanship vs 1 party and an issue of motivation.

When enough people feel they might have a chance of getting shot then there may be a gun control voting block and we'll see some change.

[virginia mountainman]

65. One thing.

Also there are a lot of dems who vote against any politician who is for gun control, and ALL republicans do. There are not enough republicans who vote for gun control.

It's much more a "Rural/Urban" divide than a "Repuke/Democrat" one. In the rural areas, people tend to "get their own" if they fear someone may be trying to shoot them.

[ManiacJoe]

61. We really can do.

Your crazy people need mental health care.
Part of that care gets them on the "no guns" list.
That list prevents future purchases and current ownership.
