The GD rules state we can post gun threads when there is big news. Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #3

Tell us..are these shootings more than usual? less than usual? aikoaiko Jan 2014 #4

There is really big gun news every day Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #7

And how many car drivers Duckhunter935 Jan 2014 #9

Feel free to post a list of car deaths in GD, no one is stopping you Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #11

you don't actually want government passing any new laws about pedestrian safety either CreekDog Jan 2014 #44

Ohhhhhhh I get it! You think GUNS do these things not people. Hunh The Straight Story Jan 2014 #13

Every single one of these stories have one thing in common, they all involve a gun Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #15

And, again, what percent do so - and how do you map that to all others? The Straight Story Jan 2014 #16

A large enough percentage to create a massively long list like this one Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #18

Wow, nice way to miss the whole point The Straight Story Jan 2014 #20

I never said anything about all gun owners, you are completely misrepresenting my position Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #21

So how do we end it Duckhunter935 Jan 2014 #27

I don't have all the answers, but we can start with getting rid of some of the NRA written laws Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #29

you mean fully funding and enforcing existing laws Duckhunter935 Jan 2014 #31

Those taking the exams will fund them with fees Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #33

Sure, yeah. However, every single murder, ever, in history had one thing in common. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #52

guns make killing faster, easier than almost anything else CreekDog Jan 2014 #45

No, governments, corporations, and defense budgets make killing faster, easier than almost anything. NYC_SKP Jan 2014 #48

none of those are as easy as getting a gun CreekDog Jan 2014 #50

Thanks for posting the SOP which clearly states "unless there is really big news" Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #5

You didn't read the whole post, did you? aikoaiko Jan 2014 #6

I did read it, but Skinner never said we need to go to him for approval every time news breaks Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #8

so its not really big news Duckhunter935 Jan 2014 #10

It is very big news, do you really think all those deaths are not news? Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #12

Sad to say but this just seems like everyday news and I am all for stricter gun regulations Packerowner740 Jan 2014 #42

To actually get that, it needs to stay visible, not hidden. Hoyt Jan 2014 #54
