If you actually need an explanation of how this country's views on guns are not just insane but, in the words of Stephen King, "crazy as a shithouse rat," then there's nothing I can do to help you.

this is the same bitcoin asshole DonCoquixote Oct 2014 #2

You know what else is used to exchange child porn? linuxman Oct 2014 #25

My bet is that cash is used to buy kiddie porn more than bitcoin. TampaAnimusVortex Oct 2014 #97

Well that's interesting. ZombieHorde Oct 2014 #3

So those responsible, law-abiding gun nuts are a myth. Time to end Hoyt Oct 2014 #4

Kindly point out for us what illegal thing you think the "gun nuts" are doing friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #5

You really don't get it. Lots of things are legal that aren't good for society. Hoyt Oct 2014 #13

"Lots of things are legal that aren't good for society." What are *you* doing to change things? friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #14

Republican governors, senators, congress people, etc , see gunz like you. Hoyt Oct 2014 #17

"Republican governors, senators, congress people, etc ," also claim the sun rises in the east friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #43

You also haven't told us what *you're* doing (aside from posting online) to change things friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #44

Thank you, well done. Saboburns Oct 2014 #51

What do *I* do? I ridicule the culture warriors on both sides of the issue... friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #68

"You also haven't told us what *you're* doing (aside from posting online) to change things" Mister Nightowl Oct 2014 #69

Kindly define "the insanity of our gun culture" for us friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #70

HA! Mister Nightowl Oct 2014 #71

You're no less a culture warrior than Ted Nugent, Pat Robertson, or the Jefferson County... friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #72

You would be more comfortable in the other group Duckhunter935 Oct 2014 #79

You skirted the question that was asked of you NickB79 Oct 2014 #19

lots of things are legal that arent good for society backwoodsbob Oct 2014 #48

Thet won't use it on gunz. Right wing racists are the main obes arming up. Hoyt Oct 2014 #61

Know a lot of RW racists do you? GGJohn Oct 2014 #62

Where I live, yes, and all are into gunz. I suspect it's much the same whrre you Hoyt Oct 2014 #63

I don't know any RW racists, I do have a lots of friends who own lots of firearms GGJohn Oct 2014 #64

Can I get an answer to my question in post #62? GGJohn Oct 2014 #73

I gave you an answer, you didn't like it. It's my experience, NRA leadership is made up of racists, Hoyt Oct 2014 #74

I could be wrong, but joeglow3 Oct 2014 #76

"Go to any gun show, mostly right wing racists." EX500rider Oct 2014 #77

Your photo does not suggest a lot of diversity. Michael Moore believes there's a connection. Hoyt Oct 2014 #82

"lack of diversity" not the same thing as "RW racists" now is it? EX500rider Oct 2014 #84

Sorry, I disagree. Too many right wingers, confederate and Tparty flags (inside and out), Hoyt Oct 2014 #86

This has got to be, by far, one of the most ridiculous things I've GGJohn Oct 2014 #114

Depending on where such a photo is taken, the entire area may lack diversity. NutmegYankee Oct 2014 #85

Not my office Duckhunter935 Oct 2014 #80

Ok, thanks for the answer. GGJohn Oct 2014 #81

I gave you evidence earlier. Also see Post #86. Hoyt Oct 2014 #87

Either you hid it, or you are seeing things. There is no "evidence" there. n/t oneshooter Oct 2014 #88

Better evidence than you have that gunz are good for societym Hoyt Oct 2014 #89

Not really, my family comes first. oneshooter Oct 2014 #90

Howsabout refuting what Michael Moore and others say. Hoyt Oct 2014 #91

Don't change the subject, you still need to show proof of what you said. n/t oneshooter Oct 2014 #92

Howsabout you provide citable evidence with links, and I don't mean GGJohn Oct 2014 #94

I asked for citable evidence with links, GGJohn Oct 2014 #93

You guys have no evidence to refute that racist right wingers are the majority of those Hoyt Oct 2014 #95

And aparently YOU have no evidrnce to back up your slander. n/t oneshooter Oct 2014 #96

As usual, they're... friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #104

Interesting, notice how many gungeoneers on that thread have been PPR'd. Hoyt Oct 2014 #107

Don't change the subject, you still need to show proof of what you said. n/t oneshooter Oct 2014 #108

Remember a certain World's Foremost Authority On Gun Owners And How They Think... friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #111

That *might* carry some sting coming from someone who practiced the ethics they preach friendly_iconoclast Oct 2014 #110

You got the law abiding part right... Oktober Oct 2014 #9

Really, this is seriously scary. Initech Oct 2014 #18

What law is being broken? linuxman Oct 2014 #24

Banksters didn't always break laws either while the ruined the economy. Hoyt Oct 2014 #32

I know several people wo have finished an AR15 lower for personal use. linuxman Oct 2014 #34

Depends on what they do with it. There are gungeoneers here who think Hoyt Oct 2014 #38

Of course if that was true, you'd have posted a link... beevul Oct 2014 #45

Confiscation. krispos42 Oct 2014 #52

It's always been legal to make your own gun - you just can't sell or transfer them aikoaiko Oct 2014 #6

Of course you can only build non serialized lowers ileus Oct 2014 #7

Can you gift them? nt Logical Oct 2014 #15

No. No transfer whatsoever aikoaiko Oct 2014 #21

Not true Travis_0004 Oct 2014 #39

I'd be very surprised...... sendero Oct 2014 #8

You would be incorrect... Oktober Oct 2014 #10

100% legal for people to manufacture firearms madville Oct 2014 #11

It's perfectly legal as long as you aren't making them for sale or transfer tularetom Oct 2014 #27

Well then, prepare to be surprised. GGJohn Oct 2014 #49

no one really traces guns anyway NightWatcher Oct 2014 #12

Yep. And if you are the sort who truly believes you *need* an untraceable gun... hunter Oct 2014 #67

FREEDOM!!!! Iggo Oct 2014 #16

FYI, this machine doesn't create the WHOLE gun at home NickB79 Oct 2014 #20

The reciever is al that you sign your life away for, though. MohRokTah Oct 2014 #100

How is it that this wonderful technology has come to be logosoco Oct 2014 #23

A CNC machine? linuxman Oct 2014 #26

Actually I am somewhat familair with CNC, my husband works in plastic molding. logosoco Oct 2014 #31

I see. I thought you meant automated machining in general. linuxman Oct 2014 #33

And its not like a used bridgeport mill is that expensive. N/T beevul Oct 2014 #46

Looks cool. linuxman Oct 2014 #28

$1,200 to make one lower receiver? tularetom Oct 2014 #29

I think ultimately someone can sell them, but yesiwasacop Oct 2014 #35

Don't get me wrong, I think this thing is pretty cool and I can see a lot of potential tularetom Oct 2014 #36

There is a lot of paperwork to get a 07 FFL Travis_0004 Oct 2014 #40

I think you miss the point. Next year these will be 300 dollars. In 5 year or less, 75 bucks. TampaAnimusVortex Oct 2014 #98

Nothing against the law about this. LittleBlue Oct 2014 #30

I agree, technology will only get better. With over 300 million guns out there who cares. nt Logical Oct 2014 #42

Marketing! Merchandising! lumberjack_jeff Oct 2014 #41

Stupid way to make guns... hunter Oct 2014 #47

You can't buy a decent CNC mill for $1,200. I expect that's a lot of what this is. n/t X_Digger Oct 2014 #50

What I was thinking Strelnikov_ Oct 2014 #55

If I had $1,200 laying around, I'd be on it like white on rice. Eyeing a CNC router for woodwork n/t X_Digger Oct 2014 #56

The key word is "decent." Quite a few "build it yourself for a $100" plans on the internet. hunter Oct 2014 #65

Well, more like, "look what I built for <$100", if you click through to the link itself.. X_Digger Oct 2014 #66

Of course they did. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Oct 2014 #53
