you dont have the spins do you?

2018-03-25 05:19:49 UTC  

the spins come before the puke

2018-03-25 05:21:50 UTC  

No

2018-03-25 05:28:27 UTC  

Why have none of the gun control kids asked for murder to be made illegal?

2018-03-25 05:28:44 UTC  

Surely if we outlaw murders, that will stop people who ignore laws from killing people.

2018-03-25 05:36:00 UTC  

Their reply is "should we make murder legal then?"

2018-03-25 05:36:09 UTC  

My reply is, murder is an action, guns are an object.

2018-03-25 05:36:29 UTC  

Guns are not only used for murder

2018-03-25 05:36:59 UTC  

But murder is only murder

2018-03-25 05:47:06 UTC  

I think the gun debate ultimately comes down to the question of what is more important, freedom or human lives. But funnily enough, that argument only comes up around guns. No one is saying we should give up the freedom of fast transportation by getting rid of cars, even though that would save lives. Or if you've ever seen those stickers on the sides of buckets that warn of the possibility that a baby can drown in it. If it can save the life of one person, why not ban buckets? Do people value buckets more than babies? Next time you see someone using a bucket, tell them that they don't care about dead kids.

the issue with your premise is that there isn't data supporting a drop in homicides due to gun bans, only homicides by gun.

2018-03-25 05:51:24 UTC  

But guns protect human lives and there isn't much to support that reducing them reduces homicides

2018-03-25 05:52:38 UTC  

exactly. but to be fair, given your premise ddog, the rest of what you said is still irrelevant, because none of those things were designed with the sole purpose to hurt or kill.

2018-03-25 05:52:39 UTC  

The countries in the world with the highest homicide by firearm stats are also countries with some of the lower ownership of firearms.

2018-03-25 05:53:47 UTC  

and in countries that heavily restricted firearms, like Australia for example, home invasions and robberies dramatically rose after the laws changed and were announced to everyone in the papers

2018-03-25 05:54:13 UTC  

Because criminals read the change as "Cool, now no one can legally own a gun to defend themselves or their home anymore"

2018-03-25 05:54:34 UTC  

no guns to protect the house? good, i'm coming in with a few knives to fuck your shit up

2018-03-25 05:54:50 UTC  

The thing is criminals still came into those houses with guns

2018-03-25 05:55:01 UTC  

because they don't give a fuck about handing in their guns to the government lol

2018-03-25 05:55:17 UTC  

oh i'm sure

2018-03-25 05:55:28 UTC  

what's stopping them?

2018-03-25 05:55:43 UTC  

The only people who handed in guns were law abiding citizens, the type of people who aren't even committing the violent crimes in the first place lol

2018-03-25 05:55:56 UTC  

The only people who should have the guns to defend themselves

2018-03-25 05:56:05 UTC  

also off topic but is it possible to change your user color? im sick of being the same color as the background

2018-03-25 05:56:24 UTC  

you get different colors by achieving different roles

2018-03-25 05:56:27 UTC  

which comes by your post count

2018-03-25 05:56:40 UTC

you got it boss

2018-03-25 05:59:35 UTC  

And something else related to what we were speaking of before,
I've heard of Australians who jump through all the hoops to get a gun license and whatnot there and if someone does come into their house they will be arrested if they shoot this person
