I was hoping the amnesty to post in GD about Newtown... Chan790 Dec 2012 #7
Please post your personal definition of "faux-Dem gunnutters". nt jody Dec 2012 #10

You forgot the rest... PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #20
That does not include: Indydem Dec 2012 #23
Did *I* fucking say any of those things? PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #25
Not directly, perhaps. Indydem Dec 2012 #28
Wow... you gun owners *are* paranoid. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #30
Then what is the solution? Indydem Dec 2012 #32
I don't recall claiming to have a solution. Please show me where I have. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #35

PeaceNikki, please accept my apology. I reached my frustration limit, something triggered it. jody Dec 2012 #21

Mea culpa, perhaps only DU regulars in the Gun Control & RKBA (Group) understand. nt jody Dec 2012 #8
That's a non-answer. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #14
That's all I have to say about that. nt jody Dec 2012 #16
good. you should do that more. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #17
Works for me. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #18
nothing TorchTheWitch Dec 2012 #54
What do we need to know about the topic other than Chorophyll Dec 2012 #13
Before Skinner's amnesty OP would have been exiled and ostracized to the Gun Control & RKBA (Group). jody Dec 2012 #26
But... so it's here in GD and you're commenting on it. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #33
See #36 nt jody Dec 2012 #37
Saw it. Thank you for your service. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #43
The problem was the 'headline' I chose. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #45
"They're scared"! Not in the least. I compete at the national/world level with those from the jody Dec 2012 #56
Yup, but I would clarify by stating that every gun death *IS* a case for gun control. tledford Dec 2012 #69
Thanks and to repeat, I don't have a problem with the OP, just that it would be banished to jody Dec 2012 #47

Wow. This story is really a chain of failure. Chorophyll Dec 2012 #67

Honestly, there are several points to be had from this story: PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #6
There is a direct connection between domestic violence and many, many gun deaths Chorophyll Dec 2012 #9
Oh, I know. I know. Here in SE WI, we've had 2 mass shootings this year. Both vets. One was DV. PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #11

Having a gun is not a guarantee that you will be able to win the fight. GreenStormCloud Dec 2012 #59
Not having a gun may guarantee you will lose the fight. Don't carry a spare tire if you don't care jody Dec 2012 #64
Yes, a gun is JUST like a spare tire... PeaceNikki Dec 2012 #65
