172. I live in the real world

Sun Jan 6, 2013, 04:30 PM

Jan 2013

Where your fantasy will lead to the very real deaths of 20-50 million people and the displacement of 100 million. That is the real world.

I also live in the real world where policies come from compromise...so unless we get a real dictartoship that can mandate the end of gun ownership, see civil war...it ain't gonna happen.

Granted, assuming you win, then you can impose the no guns anywhere policy. How do you justify 20-50 million dead to achieve that goal? And yes, I can guarantee this would be the spark to get that war going. Estimates based on a hot civil war in the United States from various sources and having studied and worked around them.

Once again, read the Constitution. Take as long as you need to...and finally internalize the concept of compromise, which is at the heart of the system. If you don't like it, there are a few dictatorships around the world you might find more to your liking.

Damn, you are sounding like tea party fanatics right at the moment. Don't worry, they don't get compromise either.

If you want to be taken seriously, once again, reductio ad absordum policies ain't gonna work. Nor can you forget ideas. Oh and these days, with rapid prototyping (another reality) printing guns at home will be possible. How do you deal with that? Thought police?
