My belief is we need population control... due to the advances in medicine the process of natural culling has been thrown out of balance. We need to control the weak, sick, stupid, and genetically inferior from breeding back into the gene pool. If everyone who owns a gun shoots and kills one dumbass in their lifetime, that would keep the natural balance in check, and maybe just maybe the morons would figure out they can't screw people out of money or break into someones house or steal someones beloved Turbo Regal....

First let me say, Faster that is an awesome post!! Great info!!!
Now Benoit, LMAO, I like the plan!! Matter of fact I already have a dumba$$ list made up so if some of you guys are too squimish I can help you out. Did you see the transcript of the guy in TX who killed the two burgalers a few months ago. He saw two guys breaking into the house next door and called 911. During the conversation he racks off his shotgun and says "ya hear that, I'm going in"!! The next thing is him yelling freeze and immediately two shots. He comes back on the phone and says I killed one of em, the other is hit, but he's running down the road. :biggrin: :biggrin:
Shane, the first time I got over a hundred pound shark up to the boat, I realized we really don't want this thing flopping around up in here still alive. Time for the glock!! Stick a gaff in and hold on tight!!

Well, the apparent policies on gun ownership dont appear to be working so I think more restriction are a move in the right direction. He's not saying people cant own guns hes just making straw sales and stricter background checks more of a priority. I dont see anything wrong with that.
If law abiding people are buying guns cause they think they will have no access to them shortly they apparently arent paying much attention to what he is trying to accomplish.
Again, our country has more gun violence then almost all other civilized countries in the world put together. Changes need to be made. Its that simple. Current policies are failing. Period.
Here's one for ya...YOU CAN'T LEGISLATE MORALITY!!!.
How many of the people in jail for gun violence are the products of drug ridden, single parent, inner city family structures? As a society...we rely on the teachers, policemen, social workers...etc to raise our kids. What about the parents responsibility? I have many guns that are at my house...loaded...I mean with one in the hole...ready!! There is no chance under the sun that my kid shoots anybody... You want to know why??
Because I raised her better!!
What ever happened to personal responsibilty for your actions? You want ME to have to live with R-E-T-A-R-D-E-D gun laws that are created to control criminals?!?!? At the expense of my constitutional rights?
I don't know about more gun violence than all the civilized countries combined ( a link maybe?). But they have been chopping each other up with machetes in Africa for centuries. Do you think registering machetes stops that violence?
If legislating morality worked...drug rehabs wouldn't exist...bars and liqour stores wouldn't exist...but they do.
Maybe we could set ourselves up for the next set of cool Mafia movies....1st there was Al Capone (booze)...then there was Pablo Escobar ( drugs)...Next.... "Whatever Gang" (guns)
Funny thing...we were given the second ammendment to protect ourselves against any unfair government that may seek to infringe upon our unalienable rights as outlined in the constitution....WELL...the most openly "socialist appearing" president we have EVER had wants to limit my ability to buy a gun...
Let this type of legislature pass and I promise you will only turn law abiding taxpayers into criminals. Because I will never register a firearm because the government tells me to...and I am not the only one (by a long shot). It's nobody's business but mine.
Obama should see to it that the existing laws are enforced, instead of making new ones.
Here is a simple analogy... How many potheads don't smoke pot because it's "illegal"? Get my point?
Do you just make this stuff up as you go or do you just blindly believe whatever the anti-gunners write. A couple of posts back I listed the facts as reported by law enforcement in countries around the world.
Current policies are failing because they are not enforced.
IE. I am filling criminal charges against somone who wrote me a bad check for contrator services rendered. She already has 340 judgements against her for monies owed and it still walking the streets. Our attorney general has not charged her once. I am forcing the issue and she will be charged for fraud against me but the others will not be applied to her.
Crime pays, that's why they do it. When it doesn't they won't
Mikey
I remember when the ban was in affect before on AW's. I remember seeing some but only in the hands of PEOPLE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE THEM
If they attempt to control guns alot more than they do now only the criminals will have them...

That's not gonna ever happen. Guns are too popular for it to ever get that extreme. The problem is the only people committing the crimes ARE the criminals so whatever can be done stop straw purchases in particular could only be a good thing IMO.

Do you honestly believe gun violence is not a serious problem in our country? If you don't then take off the blinders. Can't remember the last time I responded to a murder or robbery involving anything other then a GUN.
Your statements on the laws are not being enforced is just the end result of the problem. What, build more jails so we can house more animals and raise our taxes to house and feed them. No thanx. Howbout stricter controls on them ever being able to get them in the first place.
Everyone gets hung up on the GUN CONTROL issue as meaning the only people that will have them is criminals. The only people that we dont want them are the ones who do have them. Its not rocket science and it has nothing to do with the 2nd ammendment. There are no more regulated malitia issues just too many guns floating around.
You cant do anything about the guns that are already in circulation but future circulation can be curtailed with tighter restrictions. It has nothing to do with citizens who have a legal right to own guns being infringed upon.
Were a GUN country. That isn't going to change. Who is getting access to them is what needs changing.
You ban guns and guns and the next thing you'll be talking about is knife control like they are in England (look up knife culture), and then club control, and then.. and then... and then at the end of the day you are just treating the symptoms of the disease. Criminals do criminal things just like cancer eats away at the body. More gun legislation is like giving someone with a brain tumor an aspirin and denying them the right to seek their own medical care.
We already have laws on the books that make crimes with guns illegal, make it illegal for criminals to have guns and so on and so forth. More laws aren't going to change anything and then you will say that the only answer is confiscation. That's the first step to tyranny.
Even if you can conclusively prove that murders will go down with any kind of confiscation regimen, I would be completely against it. Once we as a populace are unarmed, we no longer have the ultimate check on government power.
One only need look at the result of Ruby Ridge and Waco to see why this is the case. The federal government is significantly more cautious in its dealings with people in similar situations. They were armed, they fought back, and their actions embarrassed the federal government. While individually their battles were lost, it highlighted an overbearing and heavy handed federal government. We haven't seen much in the way of tanks and military helicopters used on private citizens since. Government sponsored murder of women and children has gone down as well. That's always subject to change if we let people confiscate the means of defending ourselves.
Every now and then, the govt needs to be reminded that we are citizens and not subjects.

Well said, and exactly on point!
No offense Brett, but you are wrong on this subject. And I seriously mean that with all due respect to your profession and experiences. You said it yourself, Howbout stricter controls on them ever being able to get them in the first place, the current laws are plenty to stop felons or other convicted criminals from purchasing a firearm. The problem is not the people buying them under current regulations, but those who are buying them illegally. And no gunshows are not a good example. I was at one last weekend and I would be willing to bet not one gun bought there will ever be used in a violent crime. Seriously, like Chris said, what pot head bought their pot legally. I can understand you as a police officer not wanting to deal with a armed public, but that's what you signed up for. It would be infinetely easier for the police and the gov't to do many things if that pesky Second Amendment was not there. More gun control will not keep guns out of the hands of criminals. One thing our society has proven is that by taking something away, i.e. alcohol, drugs, it will only create a vacuum for more criminals to make more money from the trafficing of those items.
Loopholes, what loopholes, if you want a gun you either buy it legally or you don't! If you don't you are a criminal and it wouldn't have mattered if it was illegal or legal anyway, it would have just cost a little more.
I didn't know that Brett was a police officer (so it seems anyway) if he is, it illustrates my point perfectly.
Any student of history will certainly know that the police are the front line enforcers of any tyrannical government when they rise to power. I for one am glad that they don't patrol our streets with out any fear of repercussions for their actions.
I'm relieved in a way that he is upset and afraid that the population has access to the same level of force that he does. That tells me the second amendment is doing its job. He will be more reluctant to trample on the rights of citizens when his life is at risk.
These kind of things (trampling of rights) happen even if he doesn't necessarily agree with them. People "just follow orders" all the time. There is some kind of psychological effect that shuts off individual morality when you are carrying out the will of an organization or command structure. I do not know the name, but it has been well documented. It's a favorite defense of war criminals and "yes men" for despots. It happens in US cities from time to time.
I do not wish him or any good police officer harm but one must always remember that power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I have to say with America having the largest population of Prisoners in the world it does seem we set up laws that are against "rational thought" IMO. When a person is 100% guilty, ie on tape several reliable 1st hand accts, etc... The maximun penalty should be enforced if it was a REAL crime. However "some" of the stuff people are in jail for are simply redicilious and a burden on the tax payer. It costs more to house a prisoner than to take care of 3 or 4 familes of 4 for a year What kind of rational sense does that make...

England's people are outraged at the results of the ban.Crime up 40%
YouTube - The British called - They want their guns back!

i remember when england gave up thier arms. That was a sad day in history. But we got to ALL remember who is behind all of this. That the UN is behind most of it. so who do we got to blame. I feel that it was all them presidents dictators and parliments that agreed to make this UN group after all i have still to see them idiots do anything wright.
I say that everyone has a right to live but are you really FREE! our forfathers did not intend to make laws that would take my freedom but to set forth a few laws to keep your freedom. The constution has been so twisted and turned upsidedown that we dont know what is right.
It was ten comedments that God gave us to live by. Why do we as people have to twist it? I feel that if we all would just mind our own bees wax we would be better off. I had a history teacher tell me this "My freedom stops where your nose begins." Think about it it is truth.
Lets talk about the guns:
1: guns dont kill people! people kill people!
I can leave my gun on the table loaded and cocked will it go off on its own? NO! It is a michanical object. with out an energy to pull the triger it will not go off.
2:No way shape or form will taking guns keep them from the crooks. The black market will be thier to serve the crooks.
3:Taking the resposibilty for guns is like taking the responsibillty for you kids
Thats all i got to say at this point! This is a very upsetting subject for me so till i cool down i got no more to say.
