FBI Data Show Gun Background Checks Still Undermined [View all]	Meiko	May 2012	OP
Good post. And a good reason to restrict gun sales. The system is broken and dangerous people are	Hoyt	May 2012	#1
It would be wise to update the background check system as was supposed to happen ...	spin	May 2012	#3
So because the states don't obey the law I have to lose a civil liberty?	hack89	May 2012	#6
Cry us a river. Adequate background checks and registries are all but impossible.	Hoyt	May 2012	#7
Your river is a bed of sand and you have no paddle.	PavePusher	May 2012	#10
Could you repeat that please?	sarisataka	May 2012	#14
Registries of people who should not be allowed around guns.	Hoyt	May 2012	#15
So the correct answer is to throw the baby out with the bathwater?	sarisataka	May 2012	#18
So you admit gun control is failure? You are finally getting it. nt	hack89	May 2012	#23
"Gunsters"? Is that like "punsters", but of a different caliber? n/t	PavePusher	May 2012	#12
No, another poster used it and I like it.	Hoyt	May 2012	#16
Hoyt, you seem to like a lot of things....	PavePusher	May 2012	#29
Cry us a river	rl6214	May 2012	#20
Does the concept of FIXING features of our government that are broken have any meaning for you?	slackmaster	May 2012	#24
That would require actual effort...	Clames	May 2012	#30
Fabulous system you propose	krispos42	May 2012	#34
It is a rare day	sarisataka	May 2012	#2
Updates and improvements...	discntnt_irny_srcsm	May 2012	#4
So where is all of this blood running in the streets?	Tejas	May 2012	#5
Where are all those supposed threats that cause you guys to carry?	Hoyt	May 2012	#8
But you've said elsewhere the world is full of problems.	DanM	May 2012	#9
Hoyt doesn't really do "logic".	PavePusher	May 2012	#11
You are 0 for 3 on this thread.	Hoyt	May 2012	#17
You are 0 for 950 in this Group.	Clames	May 2012	#31
But has Hoyt ever indicated that he understands that in order to influence...	DanM	May 2012	#22
Logic doesn't work with the right wing panderers to the gun lobby and supporters.	Hoyt	May 2012	#32
Don't you realize your target of persuasion isn't the right wing?	DanM	May 2012	#37
The NRA, TParty and the gun culture segment that uses guns to intimidate are right wingers.	Hoyt	May 2012	#38
What are the gun-rights people doing politically that gun-control folks can't do?	DanM	May 2012	#42
Exactly, right wingers have mobilized TBaggers, NRA types, etc., to pass right wing legislation that	Hoyt	May 2012	#43
So why is it impossible to mobilize Democrats to pass progressive gun control?	hack89	May 2012	#52
You sure talk a lot about being intimidated by people with guns.	Tejas	May 2012	#75
You of course meant lies don't work...	ileus	May 2012	#39
If you don't know, just say "as usual, I have no clue".	Tejas	May 2012	#21
They are chasing down criminals. News Flash - you gun toters are not.	Hoyt	May 2012	#33
You are right	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#40
You can actually defend yourself without a gun, as the 96+% who do not carry prove every day.	Hoyt	May 2012	#45
Your right	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#46
So you leave home prepared to shoot some "young punk." How many times has that happened?	Hoyt	May 2012	#58
If a young punk physically assaults me or one of my family members	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#61
"Level headed?" How is that when you are worried about "young punks?"	Hoyt	May 2012	#62
Yep	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#63
How would you know about a "PPR'd female canadian"?	Hugabear	May 2012	#69
reading posts without registering.	gejohnston	May 2012	#70
Sure, but it's hilarious how common that explanation is here in the Gungeon	Electric Monk	May 2012	#71
Can't speak for anyone else	gejohnston	May 2012	#72
I've only been registered for a few days	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#77
Whhhaaa ---young punks-----whhhaaaa	trumad	May 2012	#73
I'm in my 60's and not in the best of health.	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#78
Hey, if it makes you feeeel better, then	Tejas	May 2012	#53
Unfortunately, your thing pollutes society with guns.	Hoyt	May 2012	#59
How odd, that's the same thing Joseph Stalin said.	Tejas	May 2012	#64
And don't forget Hitler.	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#65
I thought every gun owner was a threat?	krispos42	May 2012	#35
Potentially they are. Non-toters are obviously much less likely to shoot innocents.	Hoyt	May 2012	#36
Again your right	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#41
Hopefully police are doing things that you aren't -- hopefully you are not police wannabe.	Hoyt	May 2012	#44
I am no police wannabe	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#47
Neither Zimmerman or Loughner had been arrested in their life. Doesn't mean much.	Hoyt	May 2012	#48
It's not a need, it's a choice that I consciously made many years ago.	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#49
More guns affect everyone -- but you don't seem to care about that.	Hoyt	May 2012	#50
How does more guns in the hands of honest citizens affect everyone?	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#51
YOU, and EVERY CCW, BETTER care what others think. That insular militant attitude, SHOULD disqualify	WingDinger	May 2012	#68
So you want the power to take my CCW	hack89	May 2012	#76
What I better do is none of your business.	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#79
Who? Every damn person that sees themselves as Trayvon.	WingDinger	May 2012	#80
How will you know if I am armed?	SGMRTDARMY	May 2012	#81
YUP, just like on TV!	Tejas	May 2012	#74
re: "BTW, police shoot innocents many more times than CCW citizens."	discntnt_irny_srcsm	May 2012	#57
Non-drivers are less likely to	Tejas	May 2012	#54
What a crock of shit.	PavePusher	May 2012	#13
