Gun Control

Re: Gun Control

Not sure what is the cool story akitu. Mother Jones or the Clackamas Mall shooter? Anyway The shooter at the Mall is Jacob Roberts. He killed 2 people and then saw Nick Meli with his gun starting to sight in on him and he ducked down. Nick Meli did not want to shoot because he was worried about hitting a innocent bystander if he missed. So Jacob Roberts decided to kill himself. This mall was a gun free zone by the way. Good thing Nick Meli said screw that. He is a hero. Not pissed at you akitu or anybody. . Servicesalesguy is really stating to annoy me thou. He won't post anything except anti gun junk. And excuse some of my bad verbage. I'm in a hurry.

The mall shooter was the cool story. Vigilante justice at its finest. Shame he took the coward's way out however.

Re: Gun Control

I read the story about the mall shooter as well.
I agree with you Akitu, the guy took the cowards way out.
At least he saved the cost of a lengthy trial and endless appeals.

Mr.Bill,
I too am annoyed that SalesServiceGuy can only cut & paste his responses to this discussion.
It is obvious that he is unable to participate in a though provoking, fact based discussion with regards to the US Second Amendment and now the Canadian Bill of Rights.
Firearms have been an advantage to settlers of both countries for hunting to feed one's family, and in defense of sovereign lands.

Re: Gun Control

OK Shadow. Who is the bad guy you are related too if you don't mind telling.? I won't hold it against you. You are a friend on here. I'm related to Meriweather Lewis. I guess that's why I love exploring. Do you know of a lake on Vancover Island that hasen't be discovered yet. I'd like to go there. LOL.

My mother has been doing genealogy for over 40 years and found many a skeleton in the family history.
I am related to Jesse James on my mom's side of the family, thus the American connection.

Another mouth breather who shouldn't have been allowed to have the first kid, never mind the second one.

5-year-old Kentucky boy fatally shoots 2-year-old sister - CNN.com

Make that a pair of them, there's a third story about another 4 year old killing a 48 year old, but I feel it's just redundant at this point.

Re: Gun Control

Got into a heated debate with a co-worker inre..guns. He thinks guns should be banned, period, for all non military/police US citizens..As a supporter of the 1st ammendment I support his right to hold this opinion, however, I think he's an idiot...


I am not a drug runner/ dealer, nor am I involved in any organized crime so therefore, I would never expect to be in a situation where multiple bad guys with fully automatic weapons are after me..Not saying it couldn't happen, but the possibility is very low...I also don't believe the average US citizen should be allowed to own a true military style fully automatic weapon. I don't own any weapons, but I do occasionaly get the oppourtuntity to go to the range and do a little target shooting, we shoot 9mm, .38, .22 cal and 223 ARs and .360s. The latter 3 all look just like the media's description of "assault weapons", but, reflecting back on my Navy days and having to qualify using truly "full auto" weapons, I can assure they are not. They are excellent weapons for target shooting, hunting, and maybe some close in defense, but against a well armed Mexican cartel, the Mafia, or a paramilitary group they are pretty useless. So here's my opinion....

The 2nd ammendment gives us the right to bear arms...I don't think the founding fathers really meant for us to use this right to defend ourselves against a "Crazed" government, the mob, or the cartel, but to protect us from the average criminal with the same type of weapons. No amount of executive orders are going to stop the insane, but determined bad guy from shooting up a mall, church, school. If you have enough money, or the skills to steal one you can obtain what you want. What banning guns from the average US citizen will do is make it impossible for that same average US citizen to defend him/herself from that average criminal. So, possibly in the future, if guns are banned, the average criminal that wants to rob you at gunpoint will have nothing to worry about..You no longer are leagaly able to own that little handgun that may have saved you, or a friend/family members life...If we had banned the manufacture of guns around the time of the musket, then maybe this would be a piontless discussion today, but we didn't.
Background checks OK, I'm even OK with banning private sales, to easy to fool the seller. Previous problems with the law?? OK, no gun. A little mentally unstable?? Certainly, no gun for you (Soup Nazi style).
But, if you are a law abiding, responsible US citizen, then if you want a gun, then I'm Ok with it.

I saw this the other day .....

SEE !!! The Government needs to enforce the rules already in place .... NOT ADD MORE RULES !!!

SO LEAVE MY RIGHTS ALONE !!!
