84. some days, no

Mon Sep 16, 2013, 09:35 AM

Sep 2013

just sick of our ability to come up with new and more efficient implements to kill each other with. Something like this belt fed monstrosity is for one thing only. It's for a paranoid, I'm going to be ready for the guvmint fool. So, some days I'm not okay with the violent insanity that has become our gun culture. It enables a zimPIG to walk around in society looking for someone, unarmed, young and black to shoot in the heart. And that's just one kind of gun nut stalking our streets. Thanks for asking though. And you?

Would you object to a story about a new derivative structure that allowed banks to dodge DanTex Sep 2013 #15

we do not have a limit as far Duckhunter935 Sep 2013 #24

We also have an exception right now for guns. DanTex Sep 2013 #25

I do not think this story qualifies for an exception Duckhunter935 Sep 2013 #28

The fact that effectively full-auto weapons can be sold due to a loophole in the law DanTex Sep 2013 #30

as shown in this thread Duckhunter935 Sep 2013 #32

In which case the loophole in the law is even bigger than the OP says. DanTex Sep 2013 #35
