    I know it seems to have worked out in Australia etc but over there was it considered a 'right from God' to bear arms? Folks over here take their 'Godly rights' damned seriously...

    Trying to ban guns here in the states will result in a full blown civil war... don't fuck w/a 'patriot' and their second amendment rights.

    :/

    • It's amazing how so many people confuse "regulate assault and automatic rifles" with "gun ban" whenever this happens.monospaced
    • people do it on purpose because they're not interested in compromise.Fax_Benson
    • ^ It's truly cringeworthy. People hear what they want.GM278
    • we're talking about banning guns IN THIS THREAD, you smug fucksPonyBoy
    • how smug? everyone's at it. removing all shades of grey from a conversation so that it becomes intractable. all sides, all topics.Fax_Benson
    • you all three seemed more interested in pointing out how dumb folks are for not understanding 'regulate' vs. 'ban'... completely ignoring that...PonyBoy
    • ... EITHER ACTION will piss off thousands if not millions of armed 'Patriots' that will NEVER give up one fucking firearm. But go ahead and play word games. :)PonyBoy
    • I'm genuinely confused but I often am.Fax_Benson
    • PonyBoy. respectfully, I actually AM one of those patriotic gun owning Americans. I served my country and I'm not some keyboard warrior hell bent on changingGM278
    • minds. I don't think anyone here is doubting gun reform will and DOES piss people off.GM278
    • But as Mono said, when some ppl even hear the words gun reform, they think "THEY'RE trying to take ALL my guns away and lose it" Rather than have a rationalGM278
    • discussion on whether or not average joe American should be allowed to have automatic military grade weapons capable of harming a large group of ppl.GM278
    • We're on the exact same page, GM. It's just being smug w/words that have the SAME INTENTION (regulate / take-away) is so fucking silly...PonyBoy
    • ...the intent of such talk is to remove firearms from the hands of their owners.PonyBoy
    • At the end of the day 'regulate' isn't going to mean you can only play w/your machine guns on Tues. and Thurs... right?PonyBoy
    • I was agreeing with you Pony. They feel it's a "god given right" and are threatened by the mention of regulation. It's straight up irrational confusion.monospaced
    • the intent of talking about regulation isn't to take away everyone's guns, it's about regulating the kinds of guns that normal people don't really needmonospaced
    • ^ THIS (although we've agreed on that in like 500 places now)GM278
    • And the argument will be 'If the Gov has it we should have it' if you're true to the 2nd Amendment's intentions (to stop a tyrannical government)PonyBoy
    • lol... btw.. I'M WITH YOU GUYZ... I'm only pointing out the rationale that we need to tread lightly around... being 'smug' will only set 'these folks' off.PonyBoy
    • *sigh... can we just go back to talking about how cool GM's car is?PonyBoy
    • HAHAHA Thanks.GM278
    • I know we're agreeing, which is why I was caught off guard being called a "smug fuck." Anyway, that El Camino is the tits.monospaced
    • Ugh... I was emphatically pointing out that as usual words count (even to the rightwing low-educated redneck). It falls in line w/that argument why HRC lost...PonyBoy
    • ... referring to your opponents constituents as 'deplorable'... the 'smugness' of such a statement will only bring out the worst in those you're trying...PonyBoy
    • ... to reachPonyBoy
    • Nothing I said was smug, nor did I call names.monospaced
    • oh c'mon... you're more concerned w/'regulate' vs. 'ban' rather than slow down and realize either conversation will result in the same reaction...PonyBoy
    • ... that's a bit smug.PonyBoy
    • no it's not, it's saying the exact same thing you are ...monospaced
    • The point is the conversation alone (to even touch existing gun laws) will set off some serious emotion amongst your diehard 2nd amendment lovers...PonyBoy
    • ... getting hung up on whether you want to regulate or ban someone's firearms means the same thing to them... you still want control.PonyBoy
    • I was right to be confused.Fax_Benson
    • lol. Go back to my main point. Folks think the 2nd Amnd. is a GOD-given right. You regulate / ban / tweak / FUCK-WITH their GOD-given right you're fucked.PonyBoy
    • Playing word games and saying 'we don't want to ban your shit... JUST REGULATE IT' isn't going to bring any gun-lover over to your side... especially...PonyBoy
    • ... when they have GOD on their side. Get it? Being SMUG w/your ability to dance around word definitions when in fact both definitions are about...PonyBoy
    • ... CONTROLLING someone who thinks GOD says they're allowed their guns is never going to get through to them.PonyBoy
    • relax ... nothing I said was remotely as smug as you saying they all do it for religious reasons :)monospaced
    • my pointing out their confusion over regulate/ban is just adding to YOUR point that they flip out at the very mention of itmonospaced

    GOP still plans to vote on NRA-backed legislation that eases gun restrictions

    House Republicans are on track to advance legislation easing firearms rules, including a package of bills backed by the National Rifle Assn. that would make it easier to purchase silencers.

    what a wonderful bunch ...
    my thoughts & Prayers are with them.

    • At this rate, we should just make it mandatory 10yo+ carry full auto weapons. More/faster guns must = saferformed

    to bring the anti gun ranters to reality...again...

    http://reason.com/blog/2017/10/0…

    personally me guns has little to do with any interest in this latest ent/political fiasco. im really looking forward to how media plays it and what doesn't get said. casino cameras no joke. Got booted from MB before, but i was staying there, and went back to hotel room afters hours at other places and got pinched going to hotel room. After talking with a less than over zealous security guard who tried (or just over did training) to break my arm and tested my patience, i got to spend the night with a permanent 86ing. also joked i was on site to do commercial work for them but went over their heads... TMI... but their cameras are awesome and having him from thursday on should help paint a narrative. Right now they have none whatsoever, which is weird. i think that is more important than any knee jerk reaction. Im really interested to see if real journalism is dead in this case because it seems like a good one.

    • first downvote against a pursuit of truth. or maybe someone didn't realize the multi directional post. a problematic failure of such systems
      ********
    • i still stand by such systems as spreading disinformation as a convenience to the lazy and such systems harm society. but benefit their media masters

    • but of course a whole different point from the post and this medium has no way to really organize or filter discussion and control it. creating a mass of noise

    • haven't watched it but there are two sounds on the vid i did see, the sounds of the incoming bullets hitting people and the ground, as well as the actual firinghans_glib
    • which would make it sound as if there are two shooters.hans_glib
    • A large open space surrounded by large tall buildings might cause echo as well.monoboy
    • sounds like multiple echos at the very beginningPonyBoy
    • that was definitely another shooter.
      ********
    • nah... the very beginning is echos (triple). Same count and cadence... you can hear it bouncing off of another casino / building 3x (huge buildings in vegas!)PonyBoy
    • There are echoes, but where her taxi is when it starts seems to be right under the room of the shooter but the shots sound far. Then you hear them close up?BabySnakes
    • At the very beginning, babysnakes? I think the video starts with an echo (from last sequence)... then it's super loud (cuz it's the first shot of next series)PonyBoy
