Apparently, by your standards I'm just as responsible for the deaths of the theater goers as the person who actually pulled the trigger.

Yesterday, 80 million americans didn't do anything wrong with their guns. AtheistCrusader Jul 2012 #38
Okay. Tell ya what? Chorophyll Jul 2012 #45
Ok. AtheistCrusader Jul 2012 #48
Sorry Atheist Crusader, Chorophyll Jul 2012 #51
I asked to get a sense of your criteria. AtheistCrusader Jul 2012 #54
I assume you understand that such a law would outlaw all hunting ammunition. Johnny Rico Jul 2012 #30
Works for me. nt Chorophyll Jul 2012 #34

Your regurgitating NRA talking points is using your sense of reason? upaloopa Jul 2012 #61

What are these "cop killer bullets" you speak of? PavePusher Jul 2012 #74
here ya go lapfog_1 Jul 2012 #76
Not sure what your point is, as the article clearly debunks the "cop killer bullet" myth. PavePusher Jul 2012 #78
It does not appear automatic weapons were involved. AtheistCrusader Jul 2012 #21
Goes to show you how lethal, semi-autos are. You know the weapons the gun culture must have to live. Hoyt Jul 2012 #53
Are you advocating the banning of all semiautomatic firearms? Johnny Rico Jul 2012 #56
Please explain what you mean by "cop killer bullets". PavePusher Jul 2012 #72

I disagree. Johnny Rico Jul 2012 #11
Nope, there are those who want to smartly regulate fire-arms and are fighting to do so uponit7771 Jul 2012 #22
Kindly point out any "smart" regulations that have been proposed. cleanhippie Jul 2012 #27

I like to drink beer hack89 Jul 2012 #59
Every time I think I've seen the limit when it comes to absurd analogies apocalypsehow Jul 2012 #60
Misuse of alcohol = misuse of a gun. Both kill, correct? nt hack89 Jul 2012 #62
Only the person drinking HockeyMom Jul 2012 #64
And my post specifically referred to drunk drivers, correct? hack89 Jul 2012 #66
Incorrect. But, then, you knew that already. This doubling-down on an absurdity is just apocalypsehow Jul 2012 #65
So societal mores and practices have no impact on drunk driving deaths? hack89 Jul 2012 #67
Further stretching of the original absurd analogy, i.e, can of beer = loaded handgun, apocalypsehow Jul 2012 #70
You are very simple minded, aren't you? hack89 Jul 2012 #71
Now the resort to sheer *ad hominem*, right on cue and not unexpected. apocalypsehow Jul 2012 #73
