The 2nd Amendment was passed during the revolutionary war era to authorize the use of arms by US militias against the British. We are not fighting the British anymore, and we sure as hell dont use militias anymore. To compare the freedom of speech to the right to bare arms is like, as the saying goes, comparing apples to oranges.Originally posted by BigDmoney
Totally agree, the right to defend ourselves is a fundamental as the right for free speech, the right to be innocent till proven guilt and others. Just because people are killed by these weapons (mostly by people who haven't taken the NRA endorsed classes) you can't outlaw them. Lets outlaw cars because there are so many deaths attributed to them. I don't have children yet, but ifI ever walked into a room in the future and saw an intruder and my family in grave danger, i would not hesitate one second to give that bastard a one-way ticket to hell.
The government, at all levels, are obligated to protect their citizens. Thats where cops comes from. If you are white, then consider yourself lucky because the cops are on your side. Even without law enforcement protection, your chance of survival would be better if your intruder is gun-less. How often do you carry a gun with you while walking down the street? Because of the NRA, their ideology and their enormous influence on politics, anybody can shoot you from out of nowhere. In the case of snipers, you would dead before you even know it, even if you are carrying a gun with you.
JKF, MLK, John Lennon, and countless other innocent human beings are dead because of guns. How could society be safer for your kids? Get rid of guns!

Some facts for you to read (try comparing them to scissors, cars and bic razors):Originally posted by Partial
so do scissors, and cars, and bic razors. What is your point?
In a single year, 3,012 children and teens were killed by gunfire in the United States, according to the latest national data released in 2002. That is one child every three hours; eight children every day; and more than 50 children every week. And every year, at least 4 to 5 times as many kids and teens suffer from non-fatal firearm injuries. (Children's Defense Fund and National Center for Health Statistics)
American children are more at risk from firearms than the children of any other industrialized nation. In one year, firearms killed no children in Japan, 19 in Great Britain, 57 in Germany, 109 in France, 153 in Canada, and 5,285 in the United States. (Centers for Disease Control)
Every day, more than 80 Americans die from gun violence. (Coalition to Stop Gun Violence)
The rate of firearm deaths among kids under age 15 is almost 12 times higher in the United States than in 25 other industrialized countries combined. (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
American kids are 16 times more likely to be murdered with a gun, 11 times more likely to commit suicide with a gun, and nine times more likely to die from a firearm accident than children in 25 other industrialized countries combined. (Centers for Disease Control)
In 2003 (the most recent year for which data is available), there were 30,136 gun deaths in the U.S:
16,907 suicides (56% of all U.S gun deaths),
11,920 homicides (40% of all U.S gun deaths),
730 unintentional shootings (2% of all U.S gun deaths),
347 from legal intervention and 232 from undetermined intent (2% of all U.S gun deaths combined).
-Numbers obtained from CDC National Center for Health Statistics mortality report online, 2006

As a conservative you should know. Adam and Eve lived in peace and prosperity. God told them not to eat the apple, but they did anyway. That was how sinners are born.Originally posted by mraynrandThe amazing statistic that no one will ever admit to is that before guns were invented, no humans were ever killed. Can you believe that? Just look in the record books - it's there for all to see. No human was ever killed prior to the invention of the gun. Also, in the history of the world, no one has ever violated any law. It's amazing! Once mankind makes a law, it is unswervingly followed, without exception.
Therefore, if guns are simply outlawed, no one will have guns, and no one will be killed.

well while we are at it start outlawing unhealthy foods! I guarentee more people die from heart disease related causes than gun violence.
You may be the most racist person I have ever seen posting thoughts. White people are the only ones protected by the police? are you stoned again?
The right to bear arms was passed AFTER the revolutionary war there my little idiot. If you ever paid attention in the classes your dad pays so much for you would realize that the constitution was passed after we won independence from the british. At first the U.S.A. was actually under the articles of the confederation. SO it was after this document, which was the first United government in modern day U.S.A. that governed us after the revolutionary war.
The right to bear arms is essential in our rights as citizens because it safeguards our right to defend hearth and home. You have a right to own a gun adn you have a right not to own a gun.
Guns are used for a variety of ways in lawful societey. They are collectibles, they are used for sport and some even use them to eat believe it or not.
Un lawful people will always find a way to kill you if that is what they want to do my little idiot. The best way to regulate guns is to teach people how to use them and keep them out of the hands of criminals and prosecuting such things as straw purchases.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

I read it again and I don't get your point. As long as their are wars in this world there will be guns. And as long as their are guns, people WILL own them legally or illegally. Guns for protection and recreation is a far cry from using it for criminal behavior. I would propose a mandatory gun class to own a gun, but not banishment. That is just unrealistic.Originally posted by Anti-Polar BearODay: texaspackerbacker but dumb. Read what i wrote again.

I made my point clear from the 1st thread. Get rid of guns, all of them. To save time arguing, law enforcements and military personals are exceptions. It is there job to protect civilans.Originally posted by BigDmoneyI read it again and I don't get your point. As long as their are wars in this world there will be guns.

Go hunting with bows and arrows, but outlaw every day use of that too.

You know nothing about the NRA. This thread is entitled "Fuck the NRA." Every time a gun control legislation gets passed, the NRA turns to the 2nd amendment to save their ass. If guns are outlawed and have no mainstream use, who would be dumb enough to make it?Originally posted by Dr. NutzTake you should take aim at the gun makers, not the 2nd amendment.
If you are a member of the NRA, you should know that.

no your point actually is to stop killing by guns. So in effect you want more police enforcement because guns dont kill people people kill people. So why not outlaw EVERYTHING that is bad for us? oh yeah that also means your beloved pot...oh yeah that is working well. Pot is outlawed, you my little idiot are a pot head, therefor you can get pot even though it is illegal. So if a person wishes to commit murder via a gun then outlaw guns, but criminals do not care about laws, therfore criminals will still use guns and then the common person cannot defend himself with a gun.
Good logic you should run for the DFL ticket, you will lose even MORE of the power.Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive.
