Is anyone truly interested in having a civil and productive conversation?

38. So tell us why are you

just now asking for "civil discussions?" Could it be because the NRA worshiping "I luv my gun" crowd are about to have their ass handed to them? You are correct that millions of gun owners are in favor of more gun control, and realize that it is NOT a scheme to confiscate their guns. If you are one of them, good on you, but this call for "civil discussions" in the DU Gungeon is too little, too late. There is a petition before the Admins at this time to form a new Group or Forum for just such discussions, and it is way overdue.

As other posters have stated, Gungeoneers have missed the fucking boat on trying to have a rational conversation about gun control. We have been trying to have that conversation for years, but noooo, they had to back the fucking NRA and insist that they needed more guns in order to "protect" themselves and their fucking "rights." They shouted down those of us who attempted to reason with them. Fuck them.

No one wants to take anyone's fucking guns away, but it's now the grownups' turn to decide what toys are acceptable, and where they can play with them. Semi-automatic, high-capacity bullet dispensing machines are a menace to society, and there can be no rational discussion about their "value" to the 2nd Amendment, or to anything or anyone else. They are mass killing devices period.
